Slayers 2 weapons
The launch weapon pool — the official FAQ promises 10 weapons (7 Demon, 3 Slayer); 12 named weapons ship in launch documentation and the balance patch.
Only two sides are dev-confirmed — we mark the rest honestly.
The weapon showcase Q&A confirmed Claws = Demon and Tanto = Slayer. Everything else follows community lists until verified — and the official 10-weapon count vs the 12 names in documentation is an open question we're tracking.

Crafting your own nichirin
Weapons come from vendors, boss drops and the harbour blacksmith's forge. The standout crafted piece at launch is the shotgun schematic: creator runs document it dropping from the Lost Slayer in the Final Selection underwater dungeon (about 5%), then crafted with 100 metal scraps, silk thread and 25,000 Wen. The Lost Shotgun itself became obtainable in the September 19 hotfix.
The Series material exchange shop at the blacksmith (added September 19, V.06) converts spare materials — check it before farming a drop the honest way.
