Project Slayers Breathing Tier List (September 2026)

If you’re on the hunt for the definitive Project Slayers Breathing Tier List, you’ve arrived at the perfect destination.

Project Slayers stands as one of the most captivating experiences available on the Roblox platform today. Drawing direct inspiration from the acclaimed anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, this title boasts an enormous and ever-growing player community — with over 674 million total visits since launching in 2020.

From its humble beginnings with just three initial breathing styles, the developers have steadily expanded the roster, introducing fresh breathing styles at regular intervals — with even more exciting additions on the horizon. The game is still actively patched, with the most recent update landing on July 1, 2026.

At present, players can access Flame Breathing, Insect Breathing, Mist Breathing, Thunder Breathing, Water Breathing, Wind Breathing, Beast Breathing, Snow Breathing, and Sound Breathing. Project Slayers has 14 breathing styles on record, though only a handful have enough cross-source agreement to rank with confidence.

Beyond these established options, anticipation continues to build around the impending arrival of Sun Breathing and Moon Breathing — both officially confirmed but not yet released.

Should you seek a comprehensive comparison to determine which breathing techniques deliver the most impactful results, our detailed Project Slayers Breathing Tier List serves as an invaluable resource.

Project Slayers Breathing Tier List

Selecting the right breathing technique within Roblox Project Slayers profoundly influences the strength and overall effectiveness of your gameplay sessions.

Although every breathing technique brings its own distinctive array of skills and capabilities, the level of enhancement they provide to your character varies considerably across the board.

Each individual breathing technique features a dedicated trainer ready to guide you toward unlocking its fullest potential. Building your breath stronger remains essential for gaining access to additional breathing styles. Mastery levels rise through consistent victories against NPCs, while new breathing styles can also be acquired directly from the in-game shop using Wen or Robux.

Throughout this Tier List, we deliver an in-depth overview of every breathing technique, complete with our authoritative ranking that highlights the most powerful breathing techniques alongside those that may require more strategic effort.

Our evaluation places each breathing style across S tier down to C tier. That said, a lower placement in the Tier List should never discourage you — many players achieve remarkable success with them once they adapt their approach.

Let’s dive straight into the detailed rankings that follow.

S-Tier

These breathing styles dominate the current September 2026 meta with exceptional damage, crowd control, mobility, and versatility in both PvP and PvE.

Wind Breathing — Wind Breathing consistently ranks at the very top of every major tracker. One source calls it “underrated” while still placing it in S-tier, and others rank it as the best PvP breathing overall. This breathing style excels in mobility and long-range assaults, delivering powerful torrents of air and whirlwinds that keep opponents at a disadvantage. Wind Breathing is accessible early — requiring only Level 12 and 5,000 Wen — making it a fantastic choice for new players who want to compete immediately.

Key Moves: Idaten Typhoon, Dust Whirlwind Cutter, Purifying Wind, Black Mountain Wind.

Case Study: Community members consistently report that Wind Breathing, when combined with the right BDA, dominates PvP leaderboards. Its ability to control space while dealing consistent damage makes it a favorite among competitive players.

Snow Breathing — Snow Breathing may not always be the most favored choice among the broader player community, but it remains exceptionally reliable. As the pioneering fan-created breathing style added in Update 1.5, it draws profound inspiration from Cryo characters. Core elements include powerful AoE freeze capabilities, remarkably swift movements, and potent Cryokinetic attack sequences.

Pros: Delivers superior crowd control through abilities such as Layered Frost and Snowtide Vortex, enabling players to freeze entire groups of demons during extended PvE farming runs. Its exceptional mobility proves decisive in intense PvP duels.

Key Moves: Layered Frost, Frost Path, Frozen Desert, Frost Gnaw, Illusory Storm, Snowtide Vortex.

How to Obtain: Reach Level 75 and speak to Nene Kamisato at Snowy Place in Ouwohana. Costs 5,000 Wen and 100 Demon Horns.

Sound Breathing — Sound Breathing, famously employed by Tengen Uzui, channels sound itself as its elemental force. Practitioners generate overwhelming disorienting loudness, deliver tremendous damage, and trigger expansive AoE explosions, all executed with lightning-fast movements.

Key Moves: Bursting Bloom, Roar, Resounding Slashes, Explosive Impact, Smoke Screen, String Performance.

How to Obtain: Sound Breathing requires Level 75+, 13,000 Wen, and 150 Demon Horns from the Sound Trainer in Sound Cave (Ouwohana).

Case Study: Community discussions frequently rate Sound, Mist, and Snow as the three best breathing styles, with Sound’s disorienting Roar ability creating devastating openings in 1v3 situations.

A-Tier

Strong all-rounders that excel in specific scenarios and remain highly viable for most players.

Thunder Breathing — Thunder Breathing grants instantaneous speed bursts, enabling users to strike multiple opponents simultaneously with overwhelming damage output. This technique embodies pure speed combined with raw power. It lands at A-tier or higher on every source we checked.

Key Moves: Thunderclap and Flash, Heat Lightning, Rapid Slashes, Thunder Rain, Rice Spirit, Thunderclap and Flash Sixfold.

How to Obtain: Find Jigoro Kuwajima on top of Zapiwara Mountain. Requires Level 12+ and 5,000 Wen.

Water Breathing — Water Breathing distinguishes itself from more aggressive counterparts by emphasizing defense as its primary strength. This breathing technique harnesses momentum and gravitational forces to amplify counterattacks in fluid, adaptive ways. Every tracker that covers it places Water Breathing at A-tier or above, making it the single safest pick overall.

Key Moves: Water Surface Slash, Water Wheel, Water Serpent, Drop Ripple Thrust, Waterfall Basin, Constant Flux.

How to Obtain: Find Sakonji Urokodaki inside Waroru Cave. Requires Level 12+ and 5,000 Wen.

Flame Breathing — Flame Breathing consistently emerges as one of the premier techniques available. Iconically wielded by Kyojuro Rengoku, this style places overwhelming emphasis on aggressive offence. Players can unleash devastating damage through precise singular slashes, enhanced further by highly effective DOT Burn Effects that continue to erode enemy health over time.

Key Moves: Rising Scorching Sun, Unknowing Fire, Blooming Undulation, Blazing Universe, Flaming Tiger, Purgatory/Rengoku.

How to Obtain: Reach Level 75, head to Wop City, and locate the Flame Trainer. Costs 10,000 Wen and 150 Demon Horns.

Beast Breathing — Beast Breathing introduces an unpredictable kit filled with combo extenders that keep opponents guessing. Its movements remain straightforward yet fiercely aggressive, perfectly mirroring the untamed ferocity of a wild beast. It is a consistent A-tier pick wherever it is covered.

Key Moves: Pierce, Crazy Cutting, Bending Slash, Throwing Strike, Devouring Slash, Devouring Rush.

How to Obtain: Enter the Beast Cave (requires Level 75+ and 10,000 Wen).

B-Tier

Solid choices for specific playstyles, though they may require more skill or synergy to shine in endgame.

Mist Breathing — Mist Breathing prioritizes stealth and deception over raw offensive power. It excels through rapid sword strikes delivered while enveloping your position in obscuring mist, leaving opponents thoroughly disoriented. While some sources rank it in S-tier, more recent cross-referencing places it in the B-to-A range.

Key Moves: Cloud and Haze, Eight Layered Mist, Distant Haze, Shifting Flow Slash, Lunar Dispersing Mist, Obscuring Clouds.

How to Obtain: Reach Level 75 and speak to the Mist Trainer at the Mist Trainer Location in Ouwohana. Costs 10,000 Wen and 150 Demon Horns.

C-Tier

Niche or situational styles that can work with the right build but are generally outclassed in the current meta.

Insect Breathing — Insect Breathing originated from Shinobu Kocho, prioritizing cunning agility and blinding speed far above brute strength. The style features rapid thrust attacks that pierce defenses, followed by shallow incisions that deliver lethal poison payloads. However, it is the one style almost every source agrees is the weakest of the group.

Key Moves: Jawbreaker, Dance of the Bee Sting, Dance of the Dragonfly, Dance of the Centipede, Mantis Kick, Butterfly Dance.

How to Obtain: Find Shinobu Kocho at Butterfly Mansion. Requires Level 12+ and 5,000 Wen.

Project Slayers Breathing Tier List (PvP Meta)

Within the competitive PvP environment, community consensus frequently adjusts priorities. Wind Breathing is widely regarded as the best PvP breathing overall due to its mobility and combo pressure. Thunder Breathing follows closely behind with its speed-based bursts and stuns. Snow Breathing and Sound Breathing shine brightest in creating disorienting battlefield chaos.

According to the Project Slayers PvP wiki, the top-tier PvP breathing styles include Water, Wind, Thunder, Mist, Flame, Sound, and Snow — with Wind and Thunder leading the pack.

Project Slayers Breathing Tier List (PvE & Farming)

For PvE and farming sessions, Snow Breathing and Flame Breathing lead the pack through devastating AoE freezes and burns that accelerate demon-clearing efficiency. Snow’s crowd control abilities freeze entire groups, while Flame’s DOT Burn Effects provide sustained damage over time. Water Breathing offers unmatched sustain during extended boss encounters, making it a solid choice for less aggressive PvE players.

Community Rankings & TierMaker

Popular TierMaker polls reflect strong community votes placing Wind Breathing, Snow Breathing, and Sound Breathing at the top, with Insect Breathing consistently lower — perfectly aligning with our established rankings.

That said, the tier list landscape for Project Slayers is unusually fragmented. Search results frequently claim “2026” updates, but many actual pages are reprinted from 2023 and disagree with each other on almost everything. Our ranking cross-checks multiple sources to find the picks that hold up regardless of which tracker you trust.

Total Concentration Breathing Guide

Progressively upgrade your breath capacity by breaking gourds located at the Butterfly Mansion (Map 1) or Wop’s Training Grounds (Ouwohana).

Level progression:

  • Level 1 (Weak Lungs) — Breath Limit: 75. Must manually breathe using the “L” key.
  • Level 2 (Good Lungs) — Breath Limit: 95. Requires 7 small, 7 medium, 3 large gourds. Total cost: ~6,650 Wen.
  • Level 3 (Total Concentration Breathing) — Breath Limit: 115. Breath regenerates passively. Requires 10 more large gourds (~7,000 Wen).
  • Level 4 (Healing Total Concentration) — Breath Limit: 125. Can heal by pressing the button near the bottom middle of the screen. Requires 15 more large gourds (~10,500 Wen).
  • Level 5 (Complete Total Concentration) — Breath Limit: 155. Can press “enter” while sprinting with sword in hand for a speed boost that consumes breath and emits a visible aura (color depends on your breathing style). Requires 20 more large gourds (~14,000 Wen).

Total Wen required to hit level 5 breathing: approximately 38,150 Wen.

💡 Tip: You must break 7 Small Gourds to unlock Medium Gourds, and break 7 Medium Gourds to unlock Large Gourds. You don’t really need Level 4 and 5 since Level 3 lets you use moves without breathing, but higher levels help with using more moves in combos.

Upcoming Breathing Styles: Sun & Moon

Sun Breathing — recognized as the origin of all other breathing styles — has been officially confirmed by the developers but is still not yet available in-game. It is also known as the Hinokami Kagura, a dance passed down in the Kamado family.

According to the Official Trello, if you have the Kamado clan (a 0.1% chance clan), you can acquire Sun Breathing as a sub-breathing — a mode you can enter that buffs stats and increases your breathing bar for a duration.

Moon Breathing has also been officially teased for future major updates, with expectations that both will dramatically reshape the existing meta landscape once released.

⚠️ Important: Despite what many mischievous players or view-thirsty YouTubers may claim, Sun Breathing has not been added to Project Slayers yet. There is no Sun Breathing trainer, and it is literally impossible to unlock and use at this time. The Kamado family is in-game and obtainable, but the breathing style itself remains upcoming content.

Best Clans & BDA to Pair with Breathing Styles

Optimal synergies can dramatically elevate your performance:

  • Flame Breathing — Pair with the Rengoku clan (Supreme 0.1% chance) for bonus burn damage on Purgatory, Blooming Undulation, and Flame Tiger.
  • Wind Breathing — The Shinazugawa clan provides +2 strength, +1 sword, +2 weapon, +75 stamina, +85 health, and +2 block points — perfect for Wind users.
  • Thunder Breathing — The Agatsuma clan unlocks powerful synergies for speed-based playstyles.
  • General advice — Always cross-reference current BDA Tier Lists when exploring Demon Arts combinations for maximum effectiveness.

Player Tips & Case Studies

  • Beginners: Consider starting your journey with Water Breathing to build a strong defensive foundation, or Wind Breathing for early-game dominance with its low unlock requirements.
  • Case Study: Community members consistently rate Wind Breathing as the best PvP breathing overall due to its mobility and combo pressure. Sound, Mist, and Snow are also frequently cited as top-tier choices.
  • Case Study: Renowned players have demonstrated Sound Breathing’s devastating power in 1v3 PvP victories, primarily through the disorienting effects of its signature Roar ability.
  • Don’t overlook the value of redeeming Project Slayers codes to earn complimentary Wen and Demon Horns, dramatically accelerating your path toward Level 75 mastery and unlocking advanced styles.
  • Breathing Level matters: Even the best breathing style is limited by your breath capacity. Prioritize Gourd Training to unlock Total Concentration Breathing (Level 3) at minimum.
