Flaming Mane Phantom Blade Zero Phantom Edge Guide
By the Blade Zero Wiki editors
Updated
Get the Flaming Mane Phantom Blade Zero by beating Flame, the Mask-Bound Lion Dance Grandmaster, in the Lion Dance Hall in Pangzhen, then having Lei Dang repair the dormant lion head at Jingyang Hall. The repaired edge breathes fire for 248 Damage at level 1, and its Burning Path skill burns bramble barriers even when the weapon is unequipped.
What Is the Flaming Mane Phantom Blade Zero?
The Flaming Mane is an Artifice Phantom Edge built on a lion-head flamethrower: hold Ctrl to pour out flame that damages and ignites, and its Burning Path ability clears damp brambles. You start with the cold Dormant Flaming Mane, so the weapon only works once Lei Dang has repaired it in Pangzhen.
The All Things How Flaming Mane page lists 248 Damage and 178 Status Effects at level 1, and notes that the flame stream drains Sha-Chi while you hold the button. Fireballs are the other half of the kit: each one spends 1 Remnant Spark, so watch two resources at once.
| Type | How to get | Base stats | Upgrade materials | Special effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Artifice Phantom Edge, a lion-head flamethrower that arrives as the Dormant Flaming Mane | Beat Flame, the Mask-Bound Lion Dance Grandmaster, at the Lion Dance Hall in Pangzhen's backstreets, then have Lei Dang restore it at Jingyang Hall in central Pangzhen | 248 Damage and 178 Status Effects at level 1 | Blazing Lion Head, a ground pickup at street level in the Pangzhen backstreets near the Lion Dance Hall, used to Soul Temper it | Hold Ctrl for a flame stream that damages and ignites while draining Sha-Chi; Burning Path burns damp brambles even when unequipped |
Which Flaming Mane Arts Unlock at Each Weapon Level?
Flaming Mane arts arrive with weapon levels rather than quests: Fireball Burst at level 5, Undying Flame at 10, Lionhead Rush at 15 and Twin Fireballs at 25. Burning Path comes with the repair as the field ability, and Chaotic Flame is the Tempering art that turns the same flame breath into damage over time.
Soul Tempering the edge takes the Blazing Lion Head, a training lion head of iron frame and firearm mechanisms that lies on the ground at street level in the Pangzhen backstreets near the Lion Dance Hall; the closest street bell to that pickup is Ancestral Shrine Square. Levels fill in the rest, and the arts table keeps each unlock beside its own cost.
| Art | Unlock | Effect | Remnant Spark per use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Burning Path | Field ability, from the repair | Burns through damp brambles, even when the edge is not equipped | — |
| Chaotic Flame | Tempering art | Flame breath becomes Chaotic Flame, and ignited enemies keep losing HP and Sha-Chi | — |
| Fireball Burst | Weapon level 5 | Block plus Phantom Edges launches a fireball forward that explodes on hit | 1 |
| Undying Flame | Weapon level 10 | Three tiers of extra Burning damage once an enemy is ignited | — |
| Lionhead Rush | Weapon level 15 | After a dash, Phantom Edges spins forward into a leaping stomp that sends out a flame shockwave | 1 |
| Twin Fireballs | Weapon level 25 | Block plus Phantom Edges launches 2 fireballs that explode on impact | 1 |
Where Do You Get the Flaming Mane Phantom Blade Zero?
Beat Flame in the Lion Dance Hall, at the end of the Lion Dance Hall Depths in Pangzhen's backstreets, on The Heart's Trail. The Dormant Flaming Mane lands in your inventory when the boss's second health bar empties, and Lei Dang at Jingyang Hall in central Pangzhen restores it.
The All Things How dormant Flaming Mane guide gives both health bars: 88,830 for the Mask-Bound Lion Dance Grandmaster and 98,700 for The Lion Dance Grandmaster's Final Dance. Two bars back to back make a long fight, so treat the second bar as a fresh fight rather than a cleanup.
Jingyang Hall sits in central Pangzhen, and the gate stays shut until you carry the lion head. Open the red double doors with E, walk in to trigger the scene, then pick the repair line from Lei Dang's talk menu. Flame sits in the boss roster, and his six Memory Flowers are out in the Pangzhen streets.
- Fight Flame at the end of the Lion Dance Hall Depths: the second bar is the Final Dance, and the dormant head arrives after the cutscene.
- Rest at the Sealed Lion bell beside the arena, then travel to Jingyang Hall in central Pangzhen.
- Open the gate's red double doors with E and speak with Lei Dang.
- Choose Repair the Flaming Mane in his talk menu; Burning Path starts working the moment the repair finishes.
How Do You Burn Brambles with the Flaming Mane Phantom Blade Zero?
Stand next to a thorny vine, which the game calls a bramble barrier, and press Ctrl. Burning Path fires from the Flaming Mane even while the edge sits unequipped in your inventory, so no loadout slot is needed; the vines at Pangzhen's south gate are the first ones most players meet after the repair.
All Things How on bramble barriers quotes the tutorial card that appears right after the repair: burn away bramble barriers even when the edge is not equipped. In combat the stream behaves differently, since Sha-Chi drains until you let go, so the combat guide covers that resource and Sha-Chi Amber Fragments covers refills in the field.
Is the Flaming Mane Worth Using?
Our take: yes, but for the field skill first. Burning Path opens routes that no other early Phantom Edge opens, and it costs nothing to keep in reserve, while the flame stream is a Sha-Chi-hungry attack best spent on groups that stay inside the cone.
Read the bars together: 1 Remnant Spark per fireball makes Fireball Burst and Twin Fireballs burst tools rather than a rotation, and Lionhead Rush at level 15 is the first art that moves you while it burns. The Phantom Edges list shows the rest, the weapon list covers the blades beside it, and the builds page is where a fire loadout fits.
