Alright, so this update… yeah, it’s actually pretty stacked. The moment I tried Gyutaro, I understood why people are already calling it unfair. But before you jump straight into farming, there are a few things you need to understand — otherwise you’ll just waste time running around the island.
Let me walk you through this properly, like I would if we were grinding this together.
Where to Start – Tenins Hideout Island
Everything in this update revolves around one place:
- Head to the newly reworked Tenins Hideout Island
This is where:
- Both bosses spawn
- All required materials drop
- NPCs for unlocking specs are located
Don’t overcomplicate it — just set your spawn here and you’re good.
How to Get Slasher (Legendary Spec Made Simple)
Let’s start with the easier one.
Requirements:
To unlock Slasher, you need:
- 50 Slasher Flesh
- 60 Slasher Marks
- 20 Claws
How to Farm It:
- Kill 25 demon mobs on the island
- This will trigger the Slasher Boss spawn
Once the boss spawns:
- Farm it repeatedly to get all required materials
Quick Tip:
Use auto boss spawn if available — it saves a ridiculous amount of time.
Is Slasher Worth It?
Honestly:
- Solid damage
- Simple moveset (3 moves)
- Good for early grinding
It’s not broken, but it’s definitely reliable.
Slasher Questline – Unlock the Demon Variant
If you want to go further with Slasher, there’s a questline.
Requirements:
- You must have Hybrid Demon Race
Quest Tasks:
- Kill 100 Zenitsu
- Kill 25 Slasher
Complete this, and your race upgrades into:
Slasher Demon
It’s a straightforward grind, nothing tricky here.
How to Get Gyutaro (The “Unfair” Spec)
Now this is where things get interesting.
Gyutaro is stronger, flashier, and yeah… kind of broken if used properly.
Requirements:
To unlock Gyutaro, you need:
- 10 Daki Ribbons
- 1 Upper Moon 6 Eye (Gyutaro drop)
- 5 Gyutaro Blood
- 2 Blood Sickles
Where to Get Items:
- Daki Ribbons → Drop from Daki mobs
- Everything else → Drops from Gyutaro Boss
Gyutaro Boss Spawn – The Annoying Part
This is where most players get stuck.
- The boss spawns based on server time
- No guaranteed instant spawn
Best Farming Methods:
- Server hop (fastest way)
- Use pity method (stay in server and wait it out)
If you’re serious about farming:
Server hopping is way more efficient.
Gyutaro Trait – Don’t Miss This
There’s something important many players overlook.
- When you get Gyutaro’s Blood
- You can consume it
This gives you a trait
And that trait is:
- Required for unlocking a title
- Also boosts your overall power
So don’t just store it — use it.
Gyutaro Showcase
After using it, I get the hype.
Here’s what you’re working with:
- 4 Moves
- 1 Cutscene ability
- Damage Buff Mode
What Makes It Strong:
- High burst damage
- Good AoE
- Strong boss farming potential
In simple terms:
This spec melts bosses way faster than Slasher.
Slasher vs Gyutaro
If you’re deciding between them:
Slasher
- Easier to obtain
- Good starter spec
- Simple gameplay
Gyutaro
- Harder grind
- Much stronger
- Better long-term investment
If you’re early game → go Slasher first
If you can grind → go straight for Gyutaro
Fast Progression Tips (Save Your Time)
After doing this grind myself, here’s what actually helps:
- Farm mobs while waiting for boss spawns
- Always keep track of materials — don’t overfarm blindly
- Server hop for Gyutaro instead of waiting
- Use auto features whenever possible
