11Overview33Spirit's Judgment is a Unique Abyss Gear in Crimson Desert that commands a spectral knight to strike down enemies. Unlike passive abyss gears that trigger automatically, Spirit's Judgment is an active skill gear that must be manually activated. When triggered, a ghostly warrior appears and delivers a powerful strike to the targeted enemy.55Spirit's Judgment is valued in melee builds for the additional burst damage it provides, as the spectral knight's strike supplements the player's own attacks.77Effect99"Commands a spectral knight to strike down the enemy."1111Properties1313PropertyValueTypeUnique Abyss GearPrice1,353 SilverActivationActive (Skill 6 button)RequirementSword Mastery I (Level 2)CostStamina (consumed on activation)1515Compatible Equipment Slots1616Spirit's Judgment can be socketed into:1818Melee Weapons only (swords, greatswords, and other melee weapon types)2020This gear cannot be placed in armor slots such as gloves, boots, or chest pieces.2222How to Obtain2424Crafting2626Spirit's Judgment can be crafted at any Witch NPC.

Crow's Pursuit sends tracking crows while Spirit's Judgment summons a spectral knight, creating multiple damage layers.Shadow Claw: Shadow Claw buffs right-click attacks at the cost of stamina, which pairs well with Spirit's Judgment's active nature.Graciel Halen: Buffs Turning Slash damage at the cost of additional spirit, synergizing with the active, resource-intensive playstyle.4747Tips4949Since Spirit's Judgment consumes stamina, invest in Stamina on the skill tree and consider using Attack Speed rings that also provide stamina regeneration.Pair with food items that restore both health and spirit to sustain resource-hungry builds.The spectral knight's attack can sometimes stagger enemies, creating openings for follow-up combos.Consider using elemental resistance Cloaks (Level 5+) in biome-specific areas to avoid stamina drain debuffs that cut into Spirit's Judgment's activation cost.5151See Also5353Abyss Gear - Overview of all abyss gearsBest Abyss Gears Guide - Tier rankings and recommendationsEndgame Weapons and Builds Guide - Endgame build strategiesGear Blueprint: Spirit's Judgment - Blueprint itemWitch - Where to craft and socket abyss gears5555Community Tier List Rating: Spirit's Judgment5757A community ranking video titled All Abyss Gears Tier List (Best to Worst Ranked) scores every Abyss Gear out of 30 across three categories: damage, usability, and utility. Each category is worth 10 points, and the totals are bucketed so that 25 to 30 is S tier, 20 to 24 is A tier, 15 to 19 is B tier, 10 to 14 is C tier, 5 to 9 is D tier, and anything below that lands in F tier. Treat the numbers below as one experienced player's testing rather than a hard rulebook, but the overall ranking lines up with what most Best Abyss Gears Guide tier lists are converging on.5959Overall Score: 26/30Damage: 9/10Usability: 8/10Utility: 9/10Community Tier: S Tier6161S tier is reserved for gears that consistently change the outcome of a fight. They hit hard, land reliably, and add real utility on top of the raw damage.6363The community video calls this the standout dodge-gear pick. Large AoE, hits extremely hard, and stays consistent on the bigger enemies that other dodge procs tend to clip past. Sits firmly in S tier on the Best Abyss Gears Guide and is one of the safest S tier slots to commit to early.6565Proc Reminder: Dodge proc with a large AoE. Fires off any successful evasion, no perfect-timing requirement.6767Spirit's Judgment is the upgrade target for any dodge-leaning build. It outperforms Ancient Wrath and Judgment of the Soul on most encounters because the AoE compensates for both tracking misses and alignment failures. Slot it the moment you unlock the recipe.
