Equipment & Accessories - Project Slayers 2 Wiki
Accessories, reforging and the gear upgrades that give the largest damage and survivability gains.
Overview
Weapons get the attention, but equipment is where most builds actually gain power. Accessories, haori and utility items fill slots that a katana cannot, and each one is a separate farm or purchase. Pair this page with the weapons list to see the full picture.
Reforging counts as equipment too, because a V2 upgrade changes the numbers your accessories multiply. Community loadout advice for launch week points at a Duelist-style set built around a Dungeon Mask, a Bamboo Muzzle and a matching haori, paired with a forged Nightfall or V2 blade.
Gear Upgrade Overview
This overview shows how gear choices change your damage output before and after upgrades. The useful part is the comparison, not the specific numbers, because launch-week values keep shifting as players test. Watch where the creator swaps accessories and note the difference in the mastery guide.
Core Gear Pieces
Accessory slots are cheap to fill and easy to overlook. Each piece adds a flat or percentage bonus that stacks with your breathing style and clan, so the order you equip them in rarely matters, but having them at all does. Check clan buffs before deciding which stat to chase.
Utility gear solves environment problems rather than damage problems, and the snowy regions punish anyone who skips it. Cold immunity comes from a lantern rather than an accessory, so the slot is free once you own it. Our locations page maps where those threats start.
Dungeon Mask
Duelist-style headgear that adds damage and features in launch-week loadout advice.
Bamboo Muzzle
Part of the same recommended Duelist set, filling the accessory slot.
Haori
The Duelist Haori rounds out the set recommended for damage-focused builds.
Emberheart Lantern
Grants Cold Immunity in Iceveil Valley after the Yeti Demon fight in the White Terror Lair.
Sun protection
Sun hats and clan perks keep demons alive in daylight, a core building block.
Where Gear Comes From
Most of the damage pieces come out of dungeon and boss farming rather than a shop. That means gear and weapons compete for the same evenings, so decide which slot is holding you back before you commit. The dungeon page covers the access route.
The lantern is the clearest example of utility gear being mandatory. Iceveil Valley applies cold damage outside protection, and the Emberheart Lantern is what charges Cold Immunity at campfires. You first need a Frozen Heart to start the Yeti fight, so the item comes from a short region chain.
| Item | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| Dungeon Mask | Dungeon and loadout farming |
| Bamboo Muzzle | Accessory drop used in Duelist sets |
| Duelist Haori | Haori slot paired with the set |
| Emberheart Lantern | Yeti Demon in the White Terror Lair |
| Frozen Heart | Required to start the Yeti fight |
| Bandages | Rika's vendor stock, 25 Wen |
Gear Beyond Accessories
Demon players have a second equipment axis: sunlight. Turning demon swaps your entire kit, and daylight becomes lethal unless you carry protection or use an early demon perk. Sun hats and clan bonuses matter here. Our demon conversion guide covers the route.
Not every upgrade is a worn item. Fighting styles such as the Reaping Blades are unlocked through a trial that asks for level 100, twenty Common Fish and twelve thousand fist damage, plus a win over the Reaper Trainee. You can hold only one fighting style at a time, so treat it as a mastery choice.
Currency and codes round out the gear layer without costing gameplay time. Wen buys small consumables from vendors, such as the bandages Rika sells for twenty five, and redemption codes have handed out spins and refinement materials. Check the codes page before assuming you need to grind.
Upgrade Order That Works
Upgrading gear in the right order is mostly about not wasting materials on slots you will replace. Fix survival first if you keep dying in dungeons, then stack damage pieces, then chase the utility items that unlock entire regions. That sequence keeps every boss attempt productive.
Fix survival first
If dungeon runs keep ending early, take the defensive accessory and lantern upgrades before chasing damage.
Stack damage accessories
Add the Duelist-style pieces such as the Dungeon Mask, Bamboo Muzzle and matching haori.
Unlock utility items
Chase environmental gear like the Emberheart Lantern so cold regions stop limiting where you can farm.
Reforge the weapon slot
Once the forge is open, push your main katana into V2 so accessory multipliers apply to a stronger base.
Gear Habits Worth Keeping
Gear decisions get easier once you know the endgame target. If your build will eventually run a Nightfall weapon, hold expensive materials for that craft and use cheap accessories in the meantime. The set you wear while saving is not the set you finish with.
Finally, remember that accessories multiply whatever your weapon and mastery already produce. A cheap accessory on a well-leveled katana beats an expensive one on a blade you barely use. Sort your progression order with that in mind, and upgrade the weapon before the wardrobe.
- Fill every accessory slot before chasing perfect rolls.
- Buy cheap consumables with Wen instead of farming them.
- Keep a Frozen Heart spare for the Yeti fight.
- Check active codes for free spins and materials.
- Upgrade the weapon before the wardrobe.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best gear setup in Project Slayers 2?
Launch-week loadout advice points to a Duelist-style set with a Dungeon Mask, Bamboo Muzzle and matching haori, paired with a forged weapon for your breathing style.
How do you get Cold Immunity?
Defeat the Yeti Demon in the White Terror Lair to get the Emberheart Lantern. You need a Frozen Heart to start that fight, then charge immunity at campfires in Iceveil Valley.
How do you survive sunlight as a demon?
Carry sun protection such as sun hats, or build around a clan that grants sunlight perks. Early sun immunity is a demon advantage, but it does not cover you forever.
What does reforging change for my gear?
Reforging upgrades your weapon rather than your accessories, but the two multiply each other. A stronger blade makes every flat accessory bonus worth more, so upgrade weapons first.
How do I unlock a fighting style like Reaping Blades?
Complete Zurinyz's trial: reach level 100, catch twenty Common Fish, deal twelve thousand fist M1 damage and beat the Reaper Trainee. You can only hold one fighting style at a time.
Where do I buy basic supplies?
Vendors such as Rika sell small consumables with Wen, the game's currency. Bandages, for example, cost twenty five Wen, so early shopping rarely breaks your budget.
Should I buy gear or farm it?
Most damage pieces come from dungeon and boss farming rather than a shop, so treat vendors as convenience only. Save your Wen and materials for the upgrades that actually raise your ceiling.
