Slayers 2 Update 1: How to Get All 5 New Weapons (Full Guide)
Some of these weapons also come with unique attack animations, visual effects, and special abilities. If you want to collect everything added in this update, here is how to get all five new weapons in Slayers 2, including their locations, drop rates, and level requirements.
1. Beast Nichirin Katana
The first new weapon is the Beast Nichirin Katana, which is obtained by defeating Inosuke. You can find this boss near the Shrine in the top-right section of the map. Open your map and travel to the Shrine to make your journey easier, then head toward the area where Inosuke spawns.
Inosuke has a chance to drop the Beast Katana when defeated. However, getting this weapon is not guaranteed because it has a 5% drop rate, meaning you might need to defeat him several times before receiving it.
Here are the details:
-
Weapon: Beast Nichirin Katana
-
Boss: Inosuke
-
Location: Near the Shrine
-
Drop Rate: 5%
-
Weapon Type: Dual Nichirin Katanas
The Beast Katana features a dual-wielding design that matches Inosuke’s fighting style. Its basic M1 attacks do not have special trail effects, but the weapon still has a unique appearance that makes it worth collecting.
2. Flower Nichirin Katana
The second weapon is the Flower Nichirin Katana, which can be obtained by defeating Kanao. Unlike the Beast Katana, this weapon is located near another Shrine. From the Shrine area, head down toward the boss location and look for Kanao.
Once you find her, defeat the boss to get a chance of receiving the Flower Katana. Just like the Beast Katana, this weapon has a 5% drop rate, so you may need to repeat the fight several times.
Here is the information you need:
-
Weapon: Flower Nichirin Katana
-
Boss: Kanao
-
Location: Near the Flower Shrine
-
Drop Rate: 5%
-
Weapon Type: Nichirin Katana
The Flower Katana has a different appearance compared to the other Nichirin weapons. One of its notable features is the special trail effect that appears during basic attacks, making its combat animations look more interesting.
3. Kusarigama
Kusarigama is one of the new custom weapons introduced in Slayers 2 Update 1. Unlike the Nichirin Katanas, this weapon has its own skills and attack animations that players can use during combat.
However, there is a level requirement before you can obtain it. You must reach Level 315 to be eligible for this weapon. Once you meet the requirement, you can fight the corresponding boss and try to get the Kusarigama, which has a 5% drop rate.
This weapon has similarities to the Stone weapon, particularly in its attack animations and overall fighting style. It also comes with several abilities that make it different from regular Nichirin Katanas.
Kusarigama Abilities:
-
Z Skill: This ability allows you to grab an enemy using the weapon. You can release the attack to pull the target toward you, creating an opportunity for a follow-up combo.
-
X Skill: Performs a spinning attack that deals damage to enemies around the player.
-
C Skill: Unleashes a powerful attack with multiple strikes, making it useful for dealing additional damage.
Kusarigama is a good weapon to consider if you want something with more abilities than a standard katana. Make sure you reach Level 315 before attempting to obtain it.
4. Kanabo (Iron Club)
Another custom weapon added in Update 1 is Kanabo, also known as the Iron Club. To obtain this weapon, you need to find Doukuru, an NPC or boss located inside a secret cave near the village.
To reach the location, follow these steps:
-
Travel toward the village.
-
Once you arrive, turn right and continue moving forward.
-
Look for a secret cave in front of you.
-
Enter the cave and find Doukuru, the Iron Club boss.
-
Defeat the boss to get a chance of obtaining Kanabo.
Kanabo requires players to reach Level 270 before they can obtain it. This is a lower requirement compared to Kusarigama, making it a weapon worth farming earlier.
Here are its main details:
-
Weapon: Kanabo (Iron Club)
-
Boss: Doukuru
-
Location: Secret Cave near the Village
-
Level Requirement: 270
Kanabo also has its own custom M1 attacks and special visual effects. Its abilities focus on heavy attacks, making it look different from the usual Nichirin weapons.
Kanabo Abilities:
-
Z Skill: Performs a powerful slam attack against enemies.
-
X Skill: Unleashes a heavy attack with a unique animation.
-
C Skill: Executes a powerful smashing combo that delivers multiple hits.
If you enjoy weapons with heavy attack animations, Kanabo is one of the options worth adding to your collection.
5. Demon Fist Guards
The fifth new weapon is the Demon Fist Guards, which are designed specifically for Demon players. Unlike the other weapons, you do not need to defeat a boss or farm for a specific drop to obtain them.
Instead, the Fist Guards are automatically given to you when you become a Demon. They work as your main weapon, similar to how Nichirin Katanas function for Slayer players.
There is also an option to use a Weapon Transfer Ticket if you need to transfer the weapon. These tickets can be obtained through the available redeem codes mentioned in the update guide.
Here are the details:
-
Weapon: Demon Fist Guards
-
Requirement: Become a Demon
-
How to Obtain: Automatically received after becoming a Demon
-
Upgrade: Can be upgraded up to T3
One interesting feature of the Demon Fist Guards is that they can be upgraded all the way to Tier 3. This gives Demon players another weapon progression option while exploring the new update.
Tips to Get All New Weapons Faster
Collecting all five weapons can take some time, especially because several of them have a 5% drop rate. Instead of farming randomly, focus on meeting the level requirements and preparing your character before challenging the bosses.
Here are some tips to make the process easier:
-
Unlock the Shrine: Use the Shrine as a starting point when traveling to the Beast and Flower Katana bosses.
-
Reach Level 270: Make sure you meet the requirement before farming for Kanabo.
-
Reach Level 315: Prepare for the Kusarigama boss fight once you reach the required level.
-
Set Your Spawn Near the Cave: You can set your spawn near the secret cave to make farming Kanabo more convenient.
-
Repeat Boss Fights: Beast Katana, Flower Katana, and Kusarigama have a 5% drop rate, so expect to defeat their bosses multiple times.
-
Use Redeem Codes: Check the latest Slayers 2 codes for available rewards, including items that can help with weapon progression.
Slayers 2 Update 1 adds five new weapons that give players more options for combat. You can obtain the Beast Katana from Inosuke, the Flower Katana from Kanao, Kusarigama by farming its boss at Level 315, and Kanabo from Doukuru inside the secret cave after reaching Level 270.
Meanwhile, Demon players can automatically receive the Fist Guards after changing their race. If you want to collect every weapon in this update, prepare your character, unlock the important locations, and start farming the bosses for their drops.
