What Is Wind Breathing in Project Slayers 2?
Wind Breathing is a Breathing Style that mimics powerful torrents of air and whirlwinds. According to the Project Slayers Wiki entry on Wind Breathing, most of its techniques are purely offensive, using rotating movements to generate whirlwind-like slashes that extend your striking range or sharp sickle-shaped attacks that hit from unusual angles.
In practice, that means Wind Breathing is an aggressive, mobility-heavy style. You're not sitting back and poking — you're launching yourself into the air, dragging targets toward you, and chaining multi-hit cyclones until something dies.
A few things stand out about the style:
- Range extension: Several forms travel forward or pull enemies in, so you threaten space most styles can't.
- Verticality: Wind has multiple launch and air-combo tools, which makes it strong against grounded bosses.
- Multi-hit damage: Cyclone-type moves tick damage repeatedly, which pairs extremely well with damage-over-time effects.
- Mode synergy: The Shinazugawa clan mode reportedly buffs Wind damage specifically, so the style and the clan are designed to be played together.
Note: Wind Breathing is listed on the wiki as unofficially announced upcoming content, so numbers and forms can shift between patches. Treat everything here as a snapshot based on current community testing.
How to Unlock Wind Breathing
This is where most players get stuck. The unlock isn't hard mechanically — it's just a long grind in a hostile biome.
Requirements
| Requirement | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Demon Horns | 50 | Dropped by demons, not guaranteed per kill |
| Cash | 5,000 | Paid to the trainer |
| Trainer Location | Tundra | Deep inside the snow biome, on a platform in the water beneath the Douma boss |
Community reports put the demon horn drop rate at roughly 30% from the frost NPCs near the Yeti boss area, while the boss itself can drop three horns at around a 40% rate. That means you may need to kill 30–35 demons to hit 50 horns if your luck is average.
Step-by-Step Unlock Route
- Level to around 45–50 first. You need enough HP and damage to survive the tundra cold and kill demons efficiently.
- Get cold resistance. A Snow Lantern (from the Yeti boss line) or standing at campfires grants temporary cold immunity. Without it, the environment itself will kill you.
- Farm demon horns at night. Demons only spawn after dark, so plan multi-night farming sessions.
- Head to the tundra platform. The Wind Trainer sits in the water beneath the Douma boss arena — swim down and look for the platform.
- Pay 5,000 cash and turn in 50 horns. You'll then complete a short training quest chain.
- Finish the training tasks. Expect push-ups, a boulder split, boulder push, aim training, and a meditation minigame. The boulder push is the longest at roughly three minutes.
- Defeat the Wind Trainee. Around 600 HP — a full M1 combo should end it fast.
- Buy a katana. Your breathing skills scale with your weapon, so don't skip this.
A recurring tip from players: set your spawn at the nearest crystal before starting the trainer quest, because the run back through the snow is brutal if you die.
All Wind Breathing Skills Explained
Here's the full form list. Names vary slightly between showcase videos, so I've grouped them by how they function.
| Skill | Type | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Mountain Win | Launcher | Swift upward slash that lifts you into the air, then a second slash that slams the target down |
| Purifying Claws | Combo / Teleport | Downward slam releasing four vertical slashes; press again after the first hit to teleport above the target for a second claw |
| Rising Dust Storm (long range) | Projectile | Fires a vertical cyclone that travels toward your aim direction |
| Rising Dust Storm (close range) | AoE | Unleashes a vertical cyclone around you for continuous multi-hit damage |
| Whirlwind Cutter (tap) | Two-hit slash | First hit stuns and suspends airborne targets, second heavier slash launches them backward |
| Whirlwind Cutter (hold) | Channeled AoE | Rapid spin creating a horizontal cyclone, ending in a heavy launch slash |
| Idaten Typhoon (long range) | Gap closer | Leap into the air and unleash three massive slashes; final hit teleports you to the target |
| Idaten Typhoon (close range) | Cutscene burst | Launches all caught targets into the air, then three massive slashes that slam them into the ground |
Which Skills Matter Most
For PvE boss farming: Purifying Claws is your bread and butter. The teleport follow-up keeps you glued to a boss that loves to back away, and the four-hit slam does respectable chip damage.
For PvP: Whirlwind Cutter's tap version is the standout. The stun on the first hit sets up the launch on the second, which is a free combo starter against anyone who isn't blocking.
For burst: Idaten Typhoon close-range is a cutscene move, meaning it's guaranteed damage once it connects. It's also the form most likely to get you killed, because you're locked in animation.
Best Wind Breathing Combos
Community testing points to a simple rule: Wind Breathing rewards M1 chains more than skill spam. Here's the pattern that shows up repeatedly in showcase footage.
PvE Boss Combo
- Open with Whirlwind Cutter (hold) to stack cyclone ticks.
- Weave M1 attacks between ticks — the bleed/poison from clan effects does most of your damage.
- Use Purifying Claws when the boss backs off to teleport back on top of it.
- Save Idaten Typhoon for when the boss is below 30% HP.
PvP Combo
- Land Whirlwind Cutter (tap) to stun.
- Immediately follow with Mountain Win to launch and reposition.
- Chase with Idaten Typhoon (long range) if they try to disengage.
- Reset with Rising Dust Storm at range if you're low on stamina.
| Situation | Best Skill | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Boss running away | Purifying Claws | Teleport follow-up |
| Opponent blocking | Whirlwind Cutter (hold) | Multi-hit breaks guard pressure |
| Need a kill confirm | Idaten Typhoon (close) | Cutscene = guaranteed damage |
| Low stamina | Rising Dust Storm (long) | Safe ranged poke |
Sanemi Boss Drops and Farming Tips
Sanemi is the Wind boss you'll farm for gear and skills, and he hits absurdly hard — community reports describe him one-shotting players through full HP bars with single skills. He's widely called one of the most punishing bosses in Slayers 2.
Drop Table (Community Reported)
| Drop | Approximate Rate |
|---|---|
| Wind Katana | 5% |
| Uniform | 5% |
| Hyori | 3% |
| Wind Skill | 5% |
How to Beat Sanemi Without Losing Your Mind
- Don't use skills in neutral. He punishes animation locks. Stick to M1 chains.
- Block his cutscene. If you can block the Idaten-style burst, you survive the fight.
- Fight him against a wall. Corners let you chain M1s without him backing out of range.
- Pop your mode first. The Shinazugawa clan mode reportedly buffs Wind damage significantly, and the poison ticks from clan M1s carry the fight.
- Bring a spawn crystal nearby. The run back is long and you will die.

Is Wind Breathing Worth It?
Short answer: yes, especially if you already have the Shinazugawa clan. Here's the honest breakdown.
Pros:
- Excellent combo potential with stun-to-launch chains
- Strong verticality and gap closers
- Multi-hit cyclones synergize with damage-over-time builds
- Top-tier boss farming once mastered
Cons:
- 50 demon horn grind is genuinely long
- Tundra biome punishes unprepared players
- Sanemi is one of the hardest bosses to farm
- Cutscene skills lock you in place and can get you killed
| Player Type | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| New players | Skip until level 50+ |
| PvP focused | Strong pick, learn Whirlwind Cutter |
| Boss farmers | Excellent once you have the katana |
| Casual players | High time investment |
If you want the fastest path, grind levels first, buy a 2x EXP boost, and farm horns in multi-night sessions rather than trying to rush it in one sitting.
