Before Update 14, Death Step's [V] was one of the most tedious things to get in the game, with things like Godhuman, Sanguine Art, Race Awakenings and others, did not exist at the time, so getting this move was one of the most tedious things to do at the time, similar to getting max level, 30m Bounty/Honor, getting 600 mastery on something, owning the most expensive fruits, and others. But when Update 14 rolled around, the mastery requirement went from 450 to 400.
