Stone Breathing in Slayers 2 A
Iwa no Kokyu · Slayer path · Tier A (5 of 5 lists) on the breathing tier list
To get Stone Breathing in Slayers 2, reach level 25 on the Slayer path and bring 4,000 Wen, Axe and Mace weapon set and 5 Beast Cores to the trainer Gyorei. The trainer then sets six training tasks: five mini-games, then a fight with the Stone Trainee. Slow, armoured strikes with a damage-reduction form. Stone is tanky and hits hard, but every form has a long windup that experienced players can punish. This page covers Stone Breathing in Slayers 2, the game formerly listed as Project Slayers 2.
How to get Stone Breathing in Slayers 2
Stone Breathing requirements
Gyorei asks for all of this before the training starts:
- Level 25
- Slayer path
- 4,000 Wen
- Axe and Mace weapon set (a 15% drop from the Stone Trainee)
- 5 Beast Cores
Farm the materials before the trip, or you walk back for them. Beast Cores drop from Beast Born Demons, with a 50% chance each.
Stone Breathing training tasks
The tasks unlock one at a time in this order, and the quest marker leads to each training area.
- Meditation. Butterfly Mansion: the mat in the second room of the big house to the right of the spawn crystal. Click each time the moving bar crosses the white marker until the meter is full.
- Push Ups. Butterfly Mansion: the push-up mat in the big house to the right of the spawn crystal. Click each white circle just as the inner ring is about to touch its edge. Standing up with a red aura means the set failed.
- Boulder Push. The maze between Windy Peak and Mistfall Harbor, right behind the two Boulder Split boulders. Push a boulder where the white arrow points within two minutes, or it starts over. The boulder can clip through some walls, which shortens the route.
- Boulder Split. Two giant boulders between Windy Peak and Mistfall Harbor, in front of the Boulder Push maze. Drag each slider to the far end of its line; when every slider is across, the boulder splits.
- Parkour. Cross the jumps and ledges to the end without falling. Water's version, the Parkour Dungeon, has six obstacles and three lives. Wall Climb and Double Jump make the hard jumps easier.
- Beat the Stone Trainee. The trainee hits hard and slow: back off, let each attack finish, then punish.
Winning that fight unlocks Stone Breathing. Open the Skill Tree afterwards and spend your skill points on its forms. Training areas on the map: Butterfly Mansion.
Pro Game Guides calls the trainer's spot the Stone Sanctuary.
