Jujutsu Infinite Mech Update Guide – Codes & Absolute Mode, Patch Notes
Absolute Mode Maximum
Absolute Mode Maximum is the new transformation-based mechanic exclusive to Puppet Manipulation users. When activated, you transform into a massive mech, channeling your entire life’s worth of cursed energy. This isn’t just for show—it changes your core combat style and introduces new destructive abilities.
How It Works:
Lifespan Energy System: Every move used or damage taken drains cursed energy in the form of years of your life. Once your years are fully depleted, the mech automatically shuts down.
AOE M1s: Your standard attacks (M1s) turn into area-of-effect attacks, allowing you to damage multiple enemies at once.
Players Can Drain You: Enemy players attacking your mech will speed up energy depletion.
Mech-Specific Abilities
Once inside the mech, you gain access to four powerful cooldown-based abilities:
Plasma Core Boost
- Effect: A powerful, high-speed dash that destroys anything in your path.
Cooldown: 15 seconds
Best Use: Great for initiating or escaping a dangerous situation fast.
Pigeon Viola Overdrive
- Effect: Launches homing missiles that explode on impact, dealing AOE damage.
- Cooldown: 15 seconds
- Best Use: Ideal for crowd control or dealing with evasive targets.
Ultimate Cannon

Targeting System Focus
Effect: Scans the area for life signatures and reveals enemy positions.
- Cooldown: 25 seconds

Quality of Life Improvements
The update isn’t all flash—several backend and UX upgrades have been added to improve gameplay smoothness:
Replay in Boss/Investigation now restarts the server instead of teleporting to a new one.
Everyone dying in a mission? Now it auto-restarts the server instead of booting you out.
Cutscene Skips: You can now skip storyline cutscenes like the tutorial.
Memory Optimization: Huge backend improvements to reduce lag and increase compatibility on lower-end devices.
Damage Numbers: Now optimized to reduce clutter and improve performance.
Mob Death Effects: Visuals reworked for faster processing.

HUD Adjustments: Key meters like Mass, Fuel, and Years now tile dynamically instead of staying in fixed spots.
Confiscation Bug Fixed: Now tools aren’t wrongly affected.
Insect Flight Animations: Fixed replication bugs that made them glitchy.
Balance Changes & Fixes
Some critical rebalances and tweaks to improve combat fairness and fix exploits:
Hollow Slash:
- Damage reduced by 33%
- Can no longer be used to combo extend
- Re-equipping lapse/reversal armor bug fixed
Blackhole now builds vent (likely a change to resource accumulation or ultimate mechanics)
