The Shotgun is a Legendary firearm in Slayers 2, the Roblox sequel to Project Slayers built by Ouw Production. It does not appear in a shop rotation or as a quest reward. You unlock it by clearing a hidden boss encounter tucked under a pond, pulling its schematic, and taking that schematic to a forge.
Quick answer: Dive into the pond north of the Final Selection NPC, enter the underwater cave, and defeat The Lost Slayer for the Shotgun Schematic (2.5% drop). Craft it at Hidden Mist Village.
Shotgun stats and rarity in Slayers 2
Once the weapon is in your inventory, the item card lists it as Legendary tier with a small flat damage bonus, a damage multiplier, and a block value. The design takes its cue from Genya’s gun in Demon Slayer, and the player model carries the weapons on the back when they are sheathed.
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Rarity | Legendary |
| Additional Damage | +2 |
| Additional Damage Factor | 1.04x |
| Block Points | +2.7 |
Basic attacks run as a standard M1 chain, so the Shotgun works as a normal melee-range weapon until you spend points in its skill tree.
Where to find The Lost Slayer secret boss
The route starts from content you already pass through early on, so there is no long travel chain involved. What makes the boss easy to miss is that the entrance sits underwater rather than on the surface.
Shotgun Schematic drop rate and crafting at Hidden Mist Village
Killing the boss does not hand you the weapon. It rolls a loot table, and the Shotgun Schematic sits at 2.5% for a single copy. Expect repeat runs rather than a one-and-done clear.
When the roll succeeds, “Shotgun Schematic x1” appears in your drop list and the item lands in your inventory. That schematic is the proof the run worked. Take it to Hidden Mist Village and craft it there to turn it into the usable Shotgun, which you can confirm by checking that the weapon shows the Legendary tier stats above in your inventory.
Keep a fast route back to the cave in mind before you start farming, since a 2.5% chance means most clears end without the schematic.
Shotgun skill tree: Buck Shot, Point Blank, and Shellshock Frenzy
The Shotgun has its own skill tree with three unlockable moves bound to the standard ability keys. Shellshock Frenzy is the one worth paying attention to, because the input length changes what it does.
| Move | Key | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Buck Shot | Z | Single-input skill |
| Point Blank | X | Single-input skill |
| Shellshock Frenzy | C | Tap and hold variants |
Shellshock Frenzy splits into a quick tap version and a hold version that keeps firing, so the same slot covers both a short burst and sustained pressure. The full kit holds up against bosses as well as regular mobs, and the boss Zuko can be taken down with the three skills chained together.
Upgrading to the Damascus Shotgun in Ouwigahara Dungeon
The base Shotgun is not the ceiling. Ouwigahara Dungeon, entered through a purple portal, pays out points that you spend at its own shop, and clearing floors also hands you card buffs between stages. At the shop’s Nichirin Forge you can buy V2 Damascus versions of several weapons.
- Damascus Shotgun
- Damascus Claws
- Damascus Gauntlet
- Damascus Scythe
- Damascus Sickles
- Damascus Tanto
- Damascus War Fans
The same shop stocks EXP boosters, exclusive accessories, and the Ouwigahara Chest at 30,000 points, so dungeon currency competes between gear upgrades and cosmetics. Both Slayer and Demon characters can work toward the dungeon, with the Demon path running its own progression and exclusive weapons.
When you can start farming the Shotgun
Slayers 2 launches on September 18, 2026, with Ouw Production listing the time as 4PM EST. That puts the underwater cave, the schematic farm, and the Ouwigahara Dungeon shop out of reach until the servers go live, so the useful prep work is knowing the route from the Final Selection NPC and budgeting for several boss clears once you are in.
