Ki is the primary resource used in DBT. Ki is consumed when using Ki weapons, flying, sustaining a transformation and using Instant Transmission.

A player's Ki is displayed as a colored bar, with numbers below it displaying their current and maximum Ki supply. This display can be freely moved by dragging it with the cursor.

All characters start with 1000 maximum Ki. Permanent upgrades can be consumed and several armors and accessories can be equipped to increase this amount.

Unlike Mana, Ki must be recovered manually, unless the player has armor, accessories or buffs that grant passive Ki regeneration.

Regenerating Ki[ | ]

Charging[ | ]

Charge Base(demo)

What charging looks like in action.

Charging, executed by holding Energy Charge, is the simplest way of recovering Ki. By default, charging recovers 60 Ki per second. Charging can be done at any moment, including while doing any Ki-draining action, but excluding when a movement key is held while flying, which instead makes the player fly faster. Charging impairs a severe movement penalty while Ki is not full, reducing the player's maximum horizontal speed to 2 mph.

Accessories[ | ]

There are several accessories which give diverse effects while charging:

Ki Scrolls[ | ]

Charging can be permanently enhanced by crafting and consuming Ki Scrolls, increasing the amount of Ki recovered over time. Each can be consumed only once per character.

Adept Ki ScrollAdept Ki Scroll 120 Ki/s
Enraged Ki ScrollEnraged Ki Scroll 120 Ki/s
Master Ki ScrollMaster Ki Scroll 180 Ki/s

Consumables[ | ]

Ki potions can be used in a manner similar to healing and mana potions, including quick use by pressing Quick Ki and a sickness debuff which prevents the player from drinking more Ki potions for one minute. Similarly, Senzu Beans can be used once every 5 minutes, or 4 minutes with the Senzu Bag, to regenerate large amounts of Ki and health simultaneously.

Ki Orbs[ | ]

Slain enemies may drop Ki Orb Ki Orbs, which function similarly to dropped hearts and stars for health and Mana respectively. Each collected Orb grants 50 Ki.

Passive regeneration[ | ]

Passive Ki regeneration allows the player to regenerate Ki without any input or as a consequence of other actions. Passive regeneration is granted by armor, accessories and buffs, and is not stopped when performing Ki-draining actions.

Increasing maximum Ki[ | ]

Legendary Trait[ | ]

The Legendary Trait doubles the player's base Ki from 1000 to 2000 and the effects of any comsumed Ki Fragments after the defeat of the Eye of Cthulhu.

Ki Fragments[ | ]

Ki Fragments permanently increase the player's base maximum Ki by a fixed amount. Each can be consumed only once per character. They have a 25% chance of dropping from their corresponding boss.
