Kocho Clan - Project Slayers 2 Wiki
Kocho clan rarity, buffs, roll rate, and whether the poison-focused kit is worth building around.
Overview
Kocho is one of the five S-Tier clans, sitting in the Supreme and Legendary band with a published roll rate somewhere between 0.1% and 4%. It does not lead with the biggest health or stamina numbers. Instead the kit leans into insect and poison damage plus debuffs, which makes it the specialist pick on the full clan roster.
That identity only pays off if you build for it. Poison pressure rewards longer fights and repeated hit windows, so Kocho suits boss encounters more than short duels. Compare it with the raw stat lines on the clan buffs page and the overall ordering on the clan tier list before you commit a save slot.
Kocho in the Clan Menu
The clan showcase opens Kocho in the customization menu so you can read its buff text directly rather than relying on second-hand summaries. Pair that with the spin system rules before rerolling, and check the buff table to see how the insect and poison line compares with the stat-focused families.
Kocho Beside the Documented Clans
Kocho belongs to the S-Tier band, the smallest and rarest group in the pool. Where Rengoku and the Kamado set hand over flat health, stamina and damage factor, Kocho spends its power budget on status effects. The table places it beside the other documented families, and the Rengoku clan page covers the stat-based comparison.
Read Kocho's row as a commitment rather than an upgrade. A status-focused clan needs fight length to pay off, so it loses value in short skirmishes and gains it in boss attempts with large health pools. The progression guide covers how to sequence upgrades around a build like this.
| Clan | Tier | Roll rate | Focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kocho | S-Tier (Supreme / Legendary) | 0.1-4% | Insect and poison damage, debuffs |
| Rengoku | S-Tier (Supreme / Legendary) | 0.1-4% | +185 Health, +125 Stamina, 26% damage factor |
| Sabito | C-Tier (Rare) | 12% | +10% Water mastery |
| Kamado | Documented example | Not published | +175 Health, +130 Stamina, 23% damage factor |
Is the Poison Kit Worth Building Around?
Whether Kocho is worth building around depends on the content you play most. It is strong where fights last and pressure stacks, and weaker where everything dies in one combo. Keep the boss list handy, because those long encounters are exactly where the poison identity shows up.
Insect identity
The kit leans into insect-themed damage, giving the family a clear identity inside the S-Tier band.
Poison pressure
Poison keeps damaging a target after your combo ends, which suits long boss health bars.
Debuffs
Applied debuffs weaken a target over time rather than adding a single burst window.
Fight length
Status builds need time, so short PvP duels are where the kit looks weakest.
Rarity, Pairings and Playstyle
Kocho's rarity is the first thing to weigh. At 0.1% to 4% it is one of the hardest pulls in the game, so losing it to a careless reroll is costly. If it lands, save it immediately and decide later whether the build suits you. The clan system guide explains save slots and replacement.
Pair it with damage over time and any style that keeps you in range. Insect Breathing is the thematic match, and the general breathing styles breakdown shows where sustained damage sits against burst options. A Serpent or Stone build with high survivability also gives the poison time to matter.
Do not treat Kocho as a beginner clan. Its buff line asks you to invest in a playstyle a fresh account cannot support, and early quests end before status damage finishes anything. Late-game boss fights are the payoff, which is why the clan tier list keeps the whole S-Tier band at the top regardless of fit.
What to Do Right After Pulling Kocho
If you pull Kocho, resist the urge to immediately rebuild around it. Confirm the buff text in the menu, save it, then test whether your current style can sustain a long fight. The steps below turn a lucky roll into a decision instead of a guess, and the buff table gives you the comparison numbers.
Testing takes one boss attempt. Enter a fight with a large health pool, note how much damage happens after your combo ends, and compare it against your usual clan. If the poison line does not show up in the results, the family is a collection piece rather than a build. Recheck the progression guide before rerolling it away.
Confirm the buff text
Open the clan menu and read Kocho's passive line rather than trusting a screenshot from someone else.
Save it immediately
A 0.1-4% pull is too rare to leave unprotected while you decide what to do with it.
Test on a long fight
Fight a boss with a large health pool so the poison and debuff effects have time to tick.
Decide build or vault
Keep it if your playstyle supports sustained pressure, otherwise save it as a trophy and move on.
