Rengoku Clan - Project Slayers 2 Wiki

Overview

Rengoku is the stat-focused S-Tier family and the one most players name when they talk about a perfect roll. It grants +185 Health, +125 Stamina and a 26% damage factor, then adds burn-enhanced M1s and damage reflection on top. Nothing in the kit is conditional, which is why it tops the clan tier list for every mode.

The trade-off is the roll itself. Rengoku sits in the 0.1% to 4% Supreme and Legendary band, so it is one of the rarest results in the pool. If it lands, save it before the next spin. The clan system guide explains how, and clan buffs shows the full documented stat line.

Playing the Flame Hashira Build

This challenge run follows a player chasing the Flame Hashira build and the Rengoku clan at the same time, which makes it the clearest look at how the kit plays in practice. Watch the M1 strings and the reflected damage, then compare the numbers on the clan buffs page and the Flame Breathing breakdown.

Rengoku Versus the Other Documented Clans

The table sets Rengoku against the other documented families so the trade-offs are obvious. Rengoku wins on raw stats and always-on effects, Kocho competes through poison pressure and Sabito through Water mastery. Use the full clan roster for the complete tier breakdown behind these numbers.

Why the Kit Reads as Top Tier

Two parts of the kit are easy to overlook. Burn-enhanced M1s raise the value of basic attack strings, and damage reflection turns incoming pressure into free damage. Together they mean Rengoku scales with time spent in a fight rather than only with burst windows, which makes the boss list a good place to test it.

The 26% damage factor is the headline, but it multiplies whatever your build already does. A trained style and a strong weapon matter as much as the clan line, so do not expect the clan alone to carry a weak setup. The buff table shows how the layers combine in practice.

Burn M1s and Damage Reflection

Burn-enhanced M1s change how you use basic attacks. Instead of treating M1 strings as filler between abilities, they become a reliable damage source that keeps burn pressure running. That makes the family friendlier to players still learning a moveset, because the floor of your damage rises even when your combos are imperfect. See the Flame style page for the pairing.

Damage reflection is the PvP-relevant half of the kit. Trading hits is normally bad, but reflection means an opponent's burst window partly rebounds onto them. Against bosses the same effect adds passive damage during long strings you would otherwise spend dodging. The Kocho clan takes the opposite approach, applying damage over time instead.

Rengoku is also the easiest S-Tier pull to justify saving. Unlike a specialist family, it fits any style and any weapon, so there is no build where the stat line goes to waste. If your progression is still early, the health and stamina matter more than the damage factor for a long time.

Making the Most of a Rengoku Pull

Pulling Rengoku is only half the job. The other half is making sure it is saved and that your build actually uses the burn line. Follow the order below, and open the clan system guide if any of the save or replacement wording is unfamiliar.

Rengoku Quick Reference

Keep this list as the short version of the page. It covers the numbers, the extras and the one decision that matters most after a lucky roll. For the wider ordering, the clan tier list places Rengoku in the S-Tier band alongside Agatsuma, Kocho, Soyama and Uzui.

Finally, remember that clan buffs are one layer of a build. A 26% damage factor is strong, but an untrained style and a low-tier weapon still hold you back. Spend Wen on gear and levels rather than rerolling a clan that already sits at the top of the pool. The leveling guide covers the climb to 255.
