FAQ
Where is the Water Breathing trainer in Slayers 2?
What level do you need for Water Breathing?
Is Water Breathing good for beginners?
How many forms does Water Breathing have?
Water Breathing is the style with no bad matchup. It does not have the highest burst or the fastest engage, but every one of its forms answers a different problem — approach, crowd, mobility, sustain, finish — which is exactly what a player who has not settled into a build yet needs. This guide covers where to find Urokodaki, what he costs, and what each form is actually for.
Where is the Water trainer?
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| Trainer NPC | Urokodaki |
| Area | Bamboo Grove |
| Where exactly | Mountain hut past the Bamboo Grove waterfall |
| Unlock level | 25 |
| Forms | 5 |
To reach him, take the forest exit from Windy Peak past the bear area. The route overlaps with the mid-game leveling path, so you can fold the trip into a farming session rather than making a dedicated journey.
What do you need to unlock it?
| Requirement | Amount | Where to get it |
|---|---|---|
| Level | 25 | Questing, bear farming |
| Path | Slayer | Demons cannot learn breathing |
| Wen | 5,000–10,000 (reported) | Quests, boss drops, selling loot |
| Demon horns | up to 30 (reported) | Demon spawns on the roads at night |
| Beast cores | 5 (reported) | Bear area |
What are the five Water forms?
| Key | Ability | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Z | Surface Slash | Dash forward and hit enemies with a horizontal slash |
| X | Whirlpool | Generate a vortex that shreds anything caught inside |
| C | Water Wheel | Move forward spinning like a wheel, doing a whirling vertical slash |
| V | Constant Flux | A continuous flow of attacks forming a water dragon with each rotation |
| B | Dead Calm | Send out an aura wave; anyone caught is wrapped in rapid slashes, then hit by a crushing wave |
Is Water good, or just easy?
Both, and the distinction matters. Water’s tier placement sits at A rather than S because specialist styles out-damage it in their niche — Flame in boss fights, Thunder in duels. What Water offers instead is the absence of a bad matchup.
| If you want | Better choice |
|---|---|
| Maximum boss damage | Flame Breathing |
| Fastest PvP engage | Thunder Breathing |
| One style that always works | Water |
The breathing tier list ranks all eight styles with the same reasoning.
Which clans pair with Water?
| Clan | Rarity | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Tomioka | Legendary (4%) | Water Breathing focus, cooldown resets, damage and stamina for longer fights |
| Urokodaki | Rare (12%) | Water damage, stamina efficiency, mastery and EXP benefits, plus defence while masked |
| Sabito | Rare (12%) | Movement, sword damage, mastery and party bonuses for focused Water builds |
Frequently asked questions
Should I pick Water for my first style?
If you are unsure what you want to main, yes. Water lets you learn the combat system without punishing you for using the wrong tool, and you can commit to a specialist style later — at the cost of a new fee and losing form progress.
Is Water good in PvP?
It is viable rather than dominant. Its counter options are weaker than Flame Undulation and its engage is slower than Thunderclap and Flash, so duelists usually prefer those two. Water’s advantage is that it never hard-loses a matchup.
How long until I can unlock it?
Level 25 is the gate, and the beginner guide covers the 1–25 route. Once you are there, the trip to Urokodaki overlaps with the Bamboo Grove farming area, so it costs little extra time.
