Demon or Slayer in Slayers 2: Which Path to Pick
Slayer vs demon in Slayers 2 (Project Slayers 2): progression speed, PvP strength, grind cost, best clans and how hard it is to switch.
Short answer
Pick slayer if you want to choose your kit: you decide which breathing style to learn and the top styles are consistently strong. Pick demon if you enjoy gambling on rolls and want the highest ceiling: Shockwave sits at the top of the demon art tier list, but you might spend fifty spins to see it.
