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.
