Welcome to our Woo Jinchul Build Guide for Solo Leveling: ARISE OVERDRIVE.

In this guide, we will explain how each one of Woo Jinchul’s skills work and how best to use them. We will provide more general tips for how to get the most out of Woo Jinchul.

We will also include a build guide for Woo Jinchul. While Hunter builds aren’t as widely customisable as Sung Jinwoo, you can still customise your equipment and level up your skills. We’ll walk you through these so you can find the best items and prioritise the best skill upgrades first.

Please note that this guide is currently a work in progress. It will be updated over the course of Arise Overdrive’s early access period and following on from the full launch of the game.

Woo Jinchul Skill Overview – SL Arise Overdrive

Work in Progress.

Basic Skills

Fist of Justice

Jinchul attacks by mixing jabs and hooks.

Fist of Justice is Woo Jinchul’s basic attack. You can activate it at any time by left-clicking. Chaining this skill together several times will eventually culminate in a more powerful punch that knocks your target over.

Suppress

Heavy Attack. Jinchul charges and throws a straight right-hand punch.

Activate Suppress by pressing C. You will charge forward and deliver one powerful punch, knocking over the target. This is good for basic crowd control and for quickly closing the gap to an opponent – this is especially important because Woo Jinchul only fights with his fists, so he has a shorter attack reach than any other Hunter.

Mediation of Power

With quick steps, the user moves to the target’s side in the input direction and delivers a two-handed hook, decreasing the cooldown of Iron Fist, then steps back quickly. 

Press Q to activate Mediation of Power. On paper this is a good skill for quickly delivering a strong hit and then retreating to safety, but sometimes the skill is difficult to aim properly.

Iron Fist

After performing a double jab with his left hand, Jinchul throws a powerful hook with his right hand.

Press E to activate Iron Fist. You charge forward and deliver several punches, then slam the target to the ground. I like this skill because it does a big burst of single-target damage and will stun most enemies, allowing you to follow up with other attacks.

Special Skills

Justice Enforcement

After performing a quick two-handed hook, the user delivers a powerful straight punch. When the user uses this skill, they restore 1 Dash slot and additionally restores 1 Dash slot every 5 seconds. Restores up to 3 slots.

Justice Enforcement is Woo Jinchul’s Support skill, so it can only be used when he is supporting Sung Jinwoo, not when you are playing as Jinchul directly. The skill becomes available when Sung Jinwoo dashes twice in a row, or when an Elemental Status Effect is active on nearby enemies. It has a 90 second cooldown.

Judgment

QTE Skill. Jinchul approaches the enemy with lightning-like weaving and performs a powerful uppercut. He restores 2 Dash and Overdrive slots.

Jinchul’s QTE skill is automatically activated when you switch to him when prompted with Left Shift. Ensure you are in a suitable spot to hit an enemy with the attack before you make the switch.

Iron Fist of Justice

Synchro Chain. Jinchul attacks the enemy with lightning-fast movements.

Press T to activate your Synchro Chain when prompted. All Hunters in your party will perform their Synchro Chain skills simultaneously, usually resulting in a big burst of extra damage.

Serious Punch

Ultimate Skill. Jinchul performs an uppercut with all his heart.

Press R to activate Jinchul’s ultimate when it is fully charged. This is probably the simplest ultimate in Solo Leveling: Arise Overdrive. You deliver one mighty uppercut to the opponent, dealing heavy damage and knocking them over.

Unique Skills

Dash Combo Attack

When tapping the Basic Attack Button after performing Dash, the user can use Dash Combo Attack. 

Back Dash Combo Attack

When tapping the Basic Attack Button after performing Back Dash, the user can use Back Dash Combo Attack. 

Deflect Combo Attack

When tapping the Basic Attack Button after performing Deflect, the user can use Deflect Combo Attack. 

How to Play Woo Jinchul

Woo Jinchul is quite mobile and his attacks are all very fast. Many of his attacks will stun or knock back their target, making it possible to stun some bosses several times in a row. You just need to be wary of your skill cooldowns and play safely when everything is on cooldown.

The main issue I had when playing as Woo Jinchul is that some of his skills are pretty hard to aim. They often feel jerky and seem to launch in unexpected directions – Mediation of Power is a particularly troublesome one. There’s not much you can do about that other than keep practicing and get used to his attack patterns.

You can activate Jinchul’s Overdrive ability by pressing V. This unleashes a flurry of punches at the target and gives you a stack of Combination. Each stack of Combination boosts your Attack power and Attack Speed for a few seconds, and you can have up to three stacks at once. You will restore one Overdrive slot every time you successfully use Extreme Evasion or Iron Fist.

Consistently regenerating your Overdrive and using it to maintain three constant stacks of Combination is the key to mastering Woo Jinchul’s skillset. It takes a bit of practice but it’s not an especially complicated mechanic.
