I’m so glad they made Slayers 2 Clans have diversity and nuance rather than being simple stat boosts. I’ll rank all Clans for PVP and PVE and discuss why their abilities make them good or weaker in comparison to one another. Here’s my Slayers 2 Clan tier list and guide.

When talking about the best Clans in Slayers 2 we need to consider if they’re tied to a specific Breathing Style or Blood Demon/Evil Art or if they’re generally strong. Basically, you can think of the S and A-Tier as the best clans with S-Tiers having an edge with better skills and higher stat boosts. Check out the individual Clan ranking reasons and notes below.

S-Tier Clans

ClansRanking Notes
Rengoku
Supreme Clan
• The highest DPS clan due to the best damage factor boost, a ton of burn damage and burn-boosted M1s
• You also get a free combo extender with Indomitable Will plus a damage increase and damage reflection with the mode
• Last but not least you’re resistant to Fire and immune to the Indomitable Will combo extend from the other top-tier clans which is really strong defensively
• Easily the strongest clan in the game for a lot of builds
Agatsuma
Mythic Clan
S-Tier Only With Thunder
• Goes with an S-Tier Breathing Style buffing Thunder’s damage
• Has the damage amplification mark, a damage boost on low HP and applies burn with Flaming Thunder God
• Overall just a ton of great damage boosts for an amazing Breathing Style for an easy S-Tier
Soyama
Supreme Clan
• Soyama is pretty strong for the free counter skill and a massive damage factor boost
• The other skills are also really good for PVP and PVE with a free combo extender stun and damage boosts when you lose HP
• Just a great clan for a lot of builds
Uzui
Supreme Clan
• Combines excellent offensive boosts with the defensive potential of Douma
• You get damage amplification which is great for PVP and PVE alongside various buffs like more damage or auto-dodges
• Good for farming XP and counters Poison builds which is good since Poison damage isn’t uncommon
• Plus, you can autoblock skills so this clan is a better version of Douma
Kamado
Supreme Clan
• Let’s ignore Headbut not being great and focus on a slew of positives
• The stun move is great for combos, you get some of the best damage and stamina factor passive buffs and you get demon regen and sun immunity
• For overall PVP and PVE damage you also get Combat Intuition which just buffs you on HP loss
• It’s incredibly useful for Demons who don’t want to sack a gear slot for sun immunity and great for Slayers too for overall damage and combos
Kocho• The best clan for a Poison build but you have to be using Insect Breathing which is one of the better styles
• You get Poison damage buffs, Insect buffs, debuffs on your skills which are really good for PVP and PVE
• Plus, you’re immune to Poison overall
• The best Legendary and the best clan for its niche

A-Tier Clans

ClansRanking Notes
Himejima
Mythic Clan
• A great damage factor boost alongside damage reduction skills and buffs
• Overall decent for all modes and movesets since you can even apply damage amplification
• The focus on getting hit to utilize the clan well doesn’t really make me want to put this in S-Tier since end-game PVP and PVE wants you to avoid damage
• It’s still one of the better clans and at the top of A-Tier
Iguro
Mythic Clan
• Serpent/Snake Breathing is one of the best Breathing Styles so Iguro is automatically a good clan option due to its mode that buffs it
• Plus you get some neat benefits for a Poison damage build along with a nice PVE skill with the %HP damage snake for bosses
• It’s overall great but not among the strongest clans in the game and not even the best Poison build clan which goes to Kocho
Shinazugawa
Mythic Clan
• Wind isn’t the best Style due to its start-ups but Shinazugawa doesn’t focus on Wind too much and still gives you a bunch of overall damage buffs with its stats and mode
• You also get some tools for a Poison damage build which isn’t as good for a pure Poison build like Kocho or Iguro but is still very good
• Last but not least you get a chunky progression booster for both weapons and overall EXP so it’s a great clan to have, just not the strongest
Douma
Mythic Clan
• A very defensive/dueling-oriented clan if you prefer that playstyle with 3 auto-dodges per skill
• The clone swap can also get you out of combos which is really nice
• You can play around these defensive abilities but they’ll still help the Douma player get momentum and Douma does get a hefty damage factor buff so it’s a pretty great clan even though it’s not the strongest
• It does boost Demon progression which is also neat

B-Tier Clans

ClansRanking Notes
Shabana
Legendary Clan
• Mainly good for group-based PVE with its zone damage buff and ally buffs
• The only universally good solo PVE and PVP skill is the poison damage
• Still, it’s a very specific-use kind of clan so I feel like B-Tier fits but it’s higher if you’re playing group PVE
Tamayo
Mythic Clan
• Can be a neat PVE progression clan in a team for the healing and the CD reset against bosses
• Plus you have some debuffs for both PVE and PVP
• That said, while these can be powerful, they’re very situational and struggle to keep up with the power of the A-Tier and S-Tier clans
• Plus you get no passives so B-Tier seems perfect
Ubuyashiki
Legendary Clan
• A lot of interesting skills here for a fun off-Meta build
• The detonate deals decent damage and the summon helps keep up the pressure
• The best skill is the block ignore which is quite good for PVP
• The problem is that there are no damage boosts like the other clans so while the skills are interesting, you are pretty weak in comparison
Tomioka
Legendary Clan
• The cooldown resets are really good but that’s where the good things end
• The rest of the clan is based on Water Breathing which is the weakest Slayer style and unless it gets buffed you won’t see it a lot
• So the CD reset keeps it at B-Tier
Urokodaki
Rare Clan
• Urokodaki is mostly good for the impressive passive damage boost and the one in mode is quite good for Water Breathing
• The problem is that Water style is really weak right now
• If Water gets buffed a lot, this clan is going higher but for now you mainly want it for an early damage factor increase

C-Tier Clans

ClansRanking Notes
Yahaba
Rare Clan
• The best C-Tier Clan due to the combo extender move
• It’s still not the best but Arrow Manipulation can at least be quite good for PVE so Yahaba is much better than all other C-Tiers
Sabito & Makomo
Rare Clan
• Both are like Urokodaki and focus on Water but they’re weaker with Sabito being slightly better than Makomo
Susumaru
Rare Clan
• Tamari isn’t a good Evil Art so this clan reflects that but this is a nice beginner clan if you’re partied with another Susumaru/Yahaba
