Slayers 2 Thunder Breathing Guide: How to Unlock It

Thunder Breathing is one of the flashiest and most sought-after styles in Project Slayers 2, and for good reason — it turns your character into a lightning-fast duelist who overwhelms enemies with blinding combos. If you want Slayers 2 Thunder Breathing on your build, you'll need to grind to level 25, farm 10 demon horns, and save up 7,000 yen before the trainer will even talk to you. This guide walks you through every requirement, the exact trainer location, and the full training trial step by step so you can unlock it without wasting hours.

Thunder Breathing Requirements at a Glance

For more, see beginner guide and complete codes list.

Before you make the trek to the trainer, double-check your inventory and stats. The unlock gate is strict — if you're missing even one item, the "Learn Thunder Breathing" prompt won't appear.

Community reports consistently confirm these three requirements, so treat them as non-negotiable. The demon horns are the slowest part because the drop isn't guaranteed — player experience suggests it can take anywhere from a handful of kills to a dozen or more per horn.

How to Farm Demon Horns Fast

Head to the bear location on your map and drop a checkpoint so you can return quickly. From there, jump off the cliff (there's no fall damage in this area) and land under the waterfall. This is the main demon spawn point in the game, and the big advantage is that demons here spawn regardless of time of day — you don't have to wait for nightfall like other farming spots.

• Kill every demon you can and loot the drops
• Expect a low drop rate per kill — it is not guaranteed
• Higher-level players (around level 40) can clear this area much faster
• Bank horns as you go; you need 10 total

If you're underleveled, bring potions and don't overextend. The demons hit hard, and dying resets your progress back to your checkpoint.

Fast Leveling: 1 to 25 in Under an Hour

Reaching level 25 efficiently is the difference between unlocking Thunder Breathing today or next week. Here's the community-tested quest route.

Levels 1–8: Windy Peak Quests

Start at Windy Peak and talk to Kazu. Complete his quest once, which unlocks Nute's delivery quest. Finish the note delivery and you'll hit level 8 almost immediately.

Levels 8–10: Zuko Farming

Pick up Crew's quest to kill Zuko and the three bandits. Farm Zuko repeatedly — he has a 20% chance to drop a free sword that's actually better than the 1,500-yen fancy katana. Save that yen for your Thunder Breathing unlock instead.

Levels 10–14: Lucy and Tom

Talk to Lucy near the bear area. She sends you to Tom for a bear-killing quest. You'll also receive three bear meats, which work great as mid-fight healing. Repeat until level 14.

Levels 14–18: Betty's Gemstone and the Lucky Coin

Find Betty, the green-haired NPC, and recover her lost gemstone down by the water past the bridge and gray rock. Then head uphill to grab the easy 800 XP lucky coin quest. Reset your character afterward to teleport back instead of walking.

Levels 18–25: Mother Bear Grinding

Talk to Tom and repeat the mother bear quest until you hit level 25. To stack yen at the same time, alternate between Tom's mother bear quest and Chaka's kill-the-canine quest.

Where to Find Zantoro, the Thunder Breathing Trainer

Zantoro is tucked away on a mountain path above the bear area — the only region in the game with bears. From the bear entrance, head right past the torii-style gate and follow the path with minimal climbing.

The route is mostly double jumps and holding forward. Once you spot the hook-like structures, you know you're in the right place. Talk to Zantoro and select "Learn Thunder Breathing" if you meet all three requirements.

The Training Trial: Every Task Explained

After learning the style, you're teleported toward the Butterfly Mansion for a multi-part trial. Here's what each task demands.

Meditation

Hold T at the meditation spot and click when the yellow line enters the blue circle. The pro tip from experienced players: click just before it touches the circle for more consistent timing.

Cup Game

Watch which cup hides the ball, then track it. Use your mouse cursor to follow the correct cup — it's far easier than eyeballing it.

Push-Ups

Hold T and click when the inner ring aligns with the outer ring. Precision matters more than speed here.

Border Switch

Climb to the marked building and connect the gray circles to the green circles. It plays like a connect-the-dots minigame and ends with a cutscene.

Defeating the Thunder Trainee

This is the real test. Set a checkpoint near the Verdant Cliffs shrine before you engage so a death doesn't send you across the map.

• The trainee blocks your first attack — expect it
• Hold F to block when you see the lightning animation
• Dash in and start your combo after a successful block
• If you get caught in his combo, block immediately
• Use M1 attacks to chip him down — it's doable even without a sword

Beat him and Thunder Breathing is officially yours. Open your skill tree with M and unlock each move.

Thunder Breathing Moves and the Secret Final Skill

Thunder Breathing's moveset is built around speed — fast dashes, quick strikes, and combo pressure that mimics lightning tearing across the sky. Each form is bound to a key (Z, X, C, V, B) and unlocked through the skill tree.

The last move is the chase for most players: you have to defeat Zenitsu, and the drop chance is only 5% according to player reports. That means repeated kills, so stock up on consumables and be patient.

Tips to Save Time and Yen

• Skip the fancy katana — Zuko's free sword is better and saves 1,500 yen
• Bank demon horns early; the drop rate is the biggest bottleneck
• Alternate Tom and Chaka quests for steady yen income
• Set checkpoints before boss fights to avoid long walks
• Reset your character to fast-travel instead of climbing back
