The latest Reign Piece update adds another Demon Slayer character to the game, this time bringing Upper Moon Four, Hantengu, along with his Zohakuten form. After the previous Kokushibo update received a better response, many players are now wondering whether Hantengu is worth the grind or if the new content is better skipped.

The update is fairly small, but getting the new weapon is not exactly easy. Players need to spend time farming Kokushibo before they can access Hantengu, and the new boss has a large amount of health because he is a world boss. Here is everything you need to know about the Hantengu update and the new Wooden Drums weapon.

How to Spawn Hantengu

To start the Hantengu content, you need to travel to Demon Slayer Island. Once you arrive, head inside the Lunar Shrine and continue upward until you reach the Moon Crypt.

This is where the Hantengu boss can eventually be spawned. However, you cannot summon him immediately. The game requires you to farm Kokushibo first, making the new update considerably more grindy than it may initially seem. The basic route is:

  • Travel to Demon Slayer Island.
  • Enter the Lunar Shrine.
  • Go upward toward the Moon Crypt.
  • Defeat the mobs inside the Lunar Shrine.
  • Spawn and farm Kokushibo.
  • Complete the required Kokushibo kills.
  • Unlock the Hantengu spawn.
  • Defeat Hantengu to receive his rewards.

How to Defeat Hantengu

Once you have completed the Kokushibo requirement, you can spawn Upper Moon Four, Hantengu inside the Moon Crypt. The boss is a world boss, meaning he has a very large health pool and is designed to be fought with other players.

Because of this, farming Hantengu in a public server can be much more efficient than trying to handle the entire fight by yourself.

Some useful tips include:

  • Bring a strong damage build.
  • Fight Hantengu with other players when possible.
  • Use your strongest abilities consistently.
  • Avoid wasting time between attacks.
  • Farm Kokushibo beforehand so you can immediately start the Hantengu grind.
  • Stay in public servers if you want to find other players fighting the boss.

The boss has a lot of HP, so having multiple players attacking at the same time can make a major difference.

Hantengu Wooden Key Drop

After defeating Hantengu, a chest will appear. However, you cannot simply open it for free. You need a Wooden Key to access the chest. Hantengu can drop Wooden Keys, which are then used to open the reward chest. This adds another layer of grinding because you need to defeat the boss and obtain the required key before you can try for the new weapon.

The process works like this:

  • Spawn Hantengu.
  • Defeat the boss.
  • Obtain a Wooden Key.
  • Wait for the reward chest to appear.
  • Use the Wooden Key on the chest.
  • Roll for the Wooden Drums weapon.

How to Get Wooden Drums

The main reward from the Hantengu update is the Wooden Drums weapon. Unlike some previous weapons, there is no seller NPC that you need to find. Instead, Wooden Drums are obtained directly from the chest after defeating Hantengu and using a Wooden Key.

This means you may need to repeat the boss several times before getting the weapon. The drop is based on chance, so obtaining it is not guaranteed from your first chest.

For players who want to collect every weapon, this gives the Hantengu update a reason to grind. For everyone else, the time required to get the weapon may be something to consider before committing to the farm.

Is Wooden Drums a Good Weapon?

Wooden Drums are not necessarily a bad weapon. The weapon has its own attacks and comes with a cutscene, making it more interesting than a basic weapon with simple effects.

However, when compared directly with Kokushibo’s content, Wooden Drums may not feel as impressive. The weapon can still perform well, but players who are looking for the strongest option may prefer to focus on Kokushibo first.

After obtaining Wooden Drums, you can also enchant it and improve its performance. This gives you another reason to invest resources into the weapon if you plan on using it for longer-term gameplay.

Should You Get Hantengu?

Whether Hantengu is worth getting depends on your goals in Reign Piece. If you are a collector or want to experience every new update, then Hantengu is definitely worth farming. The boss gives you access to a new chest system and the Wooden Drums weapon.

However, if your main goal is getting the best possible weapon for your time, the grind may not be as attractive. Hantengu requires multiple Kokushibo kills before you can even start farming him, and his large world-boss health pool makes the process slower. For players with limited time, Kokushibo may be the better target.


The Hantengu update in Reign Piece adds Upper Moon Four, a new boss fight, and the Wooden Drums weapon. To reach Hantengu, you need to visit Demon Slayer Island, enter the Lunar Shrine, reach the Moon Crypt, and farm Kokushibo enough times to unlock the new boss.

After defeating Hantengu, you can obtain Wooden Keys and use them to open the reward chest for a chance at Wooden Drums. The weapon is not bad, but the overall grind is heavier than the previous Kokushibo content. For collectors, the update is worth checking out. However, if you are mainly looking for the strongest rewards with the least amount of grinding, Kokushibo may still be the better target.
