THE_ART_OF_WAR

In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.

— Sun Tzu

The Art of War is a LEGENDARY item that can be applied to Weapons/Axes to grant a  Strength bonus.

The Art of War can be purchased from Piggy During the Year of the Pig for 5,000,000 Coins,  256 Shiny Token, and  1 Enchanted Cooked Porkchop.

The Art of War can be applied to Weapons/Axes via an anvil to grant +5  Strength. This can only be done once per item.

• The Art of War was originally obtainable from the Technoshop whilst Technoblade was mayor.
  • It was also available to purchase from the Pig Shop during the 3rd, 4th, and 5th SkyBlock Anniversaries.
• The Art of War is a reference to Technoblade's SkyBlock series, The Great Potato War, where he often quoted and used Sun Tzu's philosophies.
