Justicars are trained in the martial discipline known as Tsar Quen. Tsar Quen is a unique combat style that allows the Justicars to make use of the shields granted to them by Axa to perform a variety of devastating attacks. These include special combo abilities that are especially effective when performed in the proper sequence.

Tsar Quen requires a practitioner who is skilled in both concentration and martial arts, and they also frequently rely on brawling, although other requirements are possible for individual maneuvers.

Tsar Quen Maneuvers

These maneuvers are unlocked based on your Concentration skill and follow the typical progression pattern for Justicars. Mercurial Impact unlocks at 80, Essence Smash and Manichean Blow at 150, Resolute Assault and Steel Avalanche at 200, and Structural Explosion at 250. Martial arts may also plays a role in unlocking; however, extremely high martial arts skill will not bypass the Concentration requirements. All of the attack ratings scale primarily based on Strength, Agility, Shield, Martial Arts, and Brawling while damage ratings are based primarily on Strength, Agility, Martial Arts, Brawling, Massive Blow, and Killer Instinct.

Essence Smash, Manichean Blow and Structural Explosion have per hit spirit requirements (seems to be 10sp per hit for Essence Smash, 50sp per hit for Structural Explosion).

Mercurial Impact

   Usage: perform mercurial impact [at <target>]

     A quick but relatively weak attack that slaps your opponent with your shield. This 
 maneuver can be followed up with resolute assault to begin a devasting series of attacks
