Project Slayers 2 gameplay begins at Windy Peak with Kuray's bandit quests near the gate. For slayers, the reliable early route is to defeat bandits, buy a katana from Ra's sword shop, fight Zuko around level 7, and move to Tom's bear quests after level 10.
The confirmed route reaches the bear area and identifies level 25 as the point when slayers can work toward breathing. Later quests, trainers, bosses, and leveling requirements are not officially confirmed.
Quick Early Route
- Start at Windy Peak and speak with Kuray near the gate.
- Complete bandit quests by defeating three bandits per quest.
- Save money for a regular or fancy katana from Ra's sword shop.
- Fight Zuko around level 7.
- Go through the gate across from the first quest area at level 10.
- Speak with Tom and hunt bears through roughly level 22.

Windy Peak Bandits
Kuray is the first quest contact to prioritize. The nearby bandits are intended for new characters, and only a small group spawns in the area.
- Defeat three bandits for each opening quest.
- The quest gives 25 XP and 12 of another reward that is not clearly identified.
- Repeating the quest can level a new player quickly because XP gain was recently increased.
- Other Windy Peak quests can wait until later.
Early Slayer Weapons
Ra's sword shop is in the middle of Windy Peak. It sells both a regular katana and a fancy katana for 500 each.
| Weapon path | Practical use |
|---|---|
| Regular katana | Direct early-game option |
| Fancy katana | Another purchasable early option |
| Cutless from Zuko | Useful bonus, but chance-based |
| Sealed chest or Hashira drops | Not dependable early options |
Zuko can drop the Cutless, which has a custom move set, plus one damage, 1% additional damage, and plus 45 block points. Buy a katana instead of delaying progress for this drop.

Level Milestones
- Starting level: complete Kuray's bandit quests.
- Level 7: fight Zuko.
- Level 10: move through the gate and begin Tom's bear quests.
- Level 10 to 22: defeat four bears per quest.
- Level 18: farm the mother bear beside the standard bear area.
- Level 25: work toward breathing as a slayer.
The bears have basic attacks and are easy to defeat. The mother bear is a level-18 farming target, but its full quest objective, reward, and strategy are not officially confirmed.
Slayer and Demon Progression
Slayers have an easier early progression path because breathing becomes relevant at level 25. Demons can have a harder route when a Blood Demon Art requires a specific weapon.
- Utaru requires sickles to use its Blood Demon Art.
- Slayer exams exist, but requirements and routes are not officially confirmed.
- Water Breathing is mentioned, but the trainer route and complete requirements are not officially confirmed.
- A need for 30 demon horns is mentioned, but it is not officially confirmed as a universal requirement.
Is It Worth It?
Yes, if you want a straightforward early progression loop. Project Slayers 2 gameplay rewards steady quest completion and a dependable weapon purchase more than waiting for rare drops.
