How to Reroll Breathing in Demon Blade

Changing your Breathing Style in Demon Blade is one of the most expensive decisions a Slayer makes. Rerolling — whether through dealers, gacha, or quests — often wipes mastery on your current breath. This guide explains how rerolls work, what each method costs, and when switching is worth the reset.

What “reroll breathing” means

Players use “reroll” for three different actions. Know which you need:

ActionResult
Buy new breath from dealerEquip a different style; lose old mastery
Breath Gacha pullRandom style outcome; may duplicate or upgrade
Race spinChanges race passives — not your breathing

This page focuses on Breathing Style changes. Race spins come from codes like DEMONBLADE — see Builds and Stats for race advice.

The mastery loss rule

DemonCube ties power to mastery — hours of combat with one breath equipped. When you equip a different Breathing Style:

  • Mastery on the previous breath resets to zero
  • Unlocked move tiers tied to old mastery may lock until re-grind
  • Yen and time invested in the old style do not transfer

There is no universal “mastery transfer” item. Treat every swap as starting a new character kit.

Because of this rule, reroll breathing only when:

  • You dislike your current playstyle after 20+ levels of testing
  • Meta shifts after a rework make your breath weak — check Updates and Tier List
  • You saved yen specifically for a target like Sun — see How to Get Sun Breathing

How to change breathing at the dealer

Most Slayers reroll through Breath Dealers scattered in hub zones.

  1. Save enough yen for the target breath’s listed price
  2. Meet any level requirement (higher tiers gate behind level 30, 40, or 50)
  3. Talk to the dealer NPC
  4. Purchase the new style
  5. Equip it from your breathing menu
  6. Grind mastery from zero in safe farming zones

Prices scale with rarity. Common Water I costs little; Mythical Sun runs ~5M yen or Robux alternatives.

Breath Gacha rerolls

The Breath Gacha randomizes outcomes across the ~18 breath pool — Water, Thunder, Flame, Beast, Wind, Mist, Flower, Love, Flame II, Rock, Serpent, Moon, Sun, Insect, Sound, Thunder II, Sun II, Serpent II, and more.

Gacha pros:

  • Chance at high-tier breath early
  • Excitement factor for streamers

Gacha cons:

  • Duplicate pulls waste currency
  • No guaranteed Sun without pity (if pity exists — confirm in-game)
  • Still triggers mastery loss when equipping a new result

Set a budget before pulling. If spend exceeds dealer price for your target breath, stop.

Robux reroll shortcuts

Some styles sell for Robux directly — Sun near 3000 R$ is the famous example. Robux buys the breath, not mastery. You still grind moves after purchase.

Robux rerolls make sense for daily players who value time. Casual players should yen-farm using Bosses Walkthrough routes instead.

When NOT to reroll

Avoid swapping breaths when:

  • You are under level 15 — you have not felt the full kit
  • You chase hype after one PvP loss
  • You cannot afford five million yen follow-up for Sun II planning
  • You still have unspent reset states misallocated on stats — fix stats first via Builds and Stats

Stick with Water I, Thunder I, or Wind until mechanics click. Getting Started recommends patience early.

Reroll timing around reworks

DemonCube ships reworks — Flame V2, Wind rework, Thunder II, Spider BDA parity patches — that shake tier lists. Community codes like FLAMEV2RELEASE, WINDREWORK, and THUNDER1WORK often coincide.

Wait to reroll until 48 hours after a patch when hotfixes settle. Early adopters sometimes buy nerfed kits at full price.

Planning a target breath

Before rerolling, define a goal:

  • PvE speed: Flame II, Thunder II, Serpent II
  • PvP burst: Sun, Moon, Thunder II
  • Beginner comfort: Water II, Mist, Beast

Cross-reference How to Play Demon Blade for style descriptions and Tier List for current rankings.

Stat resets vs breath rerolls

Reset states from codes refund stat points — they do not change your breathing. Use reset states after picking a final breath so stats align with scaling tags.

Confusing the two wastes resources. Redeem codes via How to Redeem Codes and spend resets only on stats.

Demon path note

Demons do not reroll breathing — they unlock different Blood Demon Arts with separate rules. Slayer-only advice on this page; demons should consult How to Play Demon Blade for BDA swaps.

Recovery after a bad reroll

If you regret a swap:

  1. Re-buy your old breath if you still have yen
  2. Accept mastery grind again — there is no shortcut
  3. Farm bosses with predictable patterns
  4. Avoid PvP until moves return

Sunk cost hurts, but mid-tier breaths remain viable forever.

Rerolling breathing is a commitment, not a menu toy. Save yen, pick a target, swap once, and master it before the next temptation.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Demon Blade players.

Does rerolling breathing reset mastery in Demon Blade?

Yes. Equipping a different Breathing Style typically wipes mastery on your previous breath. You must grind mastery again on the new style.

How do I reroll my breathing style?

Purchase a new breath from a Breath Dealer, win one from Breath Gacha, or buy select styles with Robux. Equipping the new style triggers the swap.

Is Breath Gacha better than the dealer?

Gacha is luck-based and can waste currency on duplicates. Dealers give exact styles for fixed yen — better for targeted goals like Sun.

Do race spins change my breathing?

No. Race spins only reroll your racial passive. Breathing changes happen through dealers, gacha, or Robux purchases.

When should I switch to Sun Breathing?

Switch when you reach the level gate, saved ~5M yen or Robux, and accept losing mastery on your current breath. Read the Sun guide first.

Can demons reroll breathing?

Demons use Blood Demon Arts, not breathing. They unlock different BDA lines instead of visiting Breath Dealers.
