How to Get Beast Breathing in Demonfall
Beast Breathing is Inosuke Hashibira's self-taught dual-wield style — hyper armor slices, bleeding passives, and jagged twin Nichirin blades you cannot craft elsewhere. Inosuke waits atop a rock in Corps Grove behind the unnamed village near Slayer Corps. Slayers turn in one Green Horn, one Blue Horn, and 100 meat purchased from Okuyia vendors. Beast ranks B-tier for aggressive rushdown on July 2026 lists. This guide covers horn farming routes, meat costs, and Inosuke's location with an embedded video walkthrough.
Requirements Checklist
Collect three turn-in items before visiting Inosuke: 1 Green Horn (25% drop from Green Demon), 1 Blue Horn (25% drop from Blue Demon), and 100 Meat purchasable in Okuyia Village for roughly 2,000 yen total. Use Breath Indict if switching from an existing Breathing Style.
Beast needs about 11 skill points for core forms — budget extra if you want See Through World and Kendo Mastery later. Farm horns while running the farm yen guide loops through Okuyia Plains and Blue Demon spawn zones.
Finding Inosuke in Corps Grove
From the unnamed village beside Slayer Corps HQ, run straight ahead into Corps Grove. Inosuke dances atop a rock mountain behind the small village — the same region where Blue Demon spawns for horn farming.
Inosuke is easy to miss if you only explore ground-level Corps paths. Climb the rock formation behind the village and look for his boar-mask NPC marker. The embedded video shows the exact jump route from Slayer Corps fast travel.
Green Horn and Blue Horn Farming
Green Demons drop Green Horns at a 25% rate — farm Okuyia-adjacent spawn camps until one drops. Blue Demons drop Blue Horns at the same rate near Corps Grove and Blue Demon arena paths. Party farming speeds both drops; horns do not trade between players in most cases.
Stack horn farming with demon horn routes for Flame or Wind if you plan multiple style unlocks. Okuyia vendor meat purchases happen in the same trip — buy all 100 meat pieces before climbing to Inosuke's rock.
Meat Turn-In and Dual Nichirin Unlock
Hand Inosuke the Green Horn, Blue Horn, and 100 meat in sequence. Beast Breathing unlocks immediately with twin jagged Nichirin blades — hilts removed, cloth-wrapped handles, non-craftable exclusives for Beast users only.
Beast passives make basic attacks hit twice and apply bleeding to demons while reducing incoming demon damage roughly 25%. Invest skill points into Slice and Devour first for hyper armor openers in PvP.
Beast Breathing in Combat
Beast ranks B-tier — aggressive dual-wield rushdown with hyper armor on Slice and Finishing Fang auto-execute tools. Patch 5.6 global Nichirin damage normalization affected Beast alongside Flame and Mist; the style remains viable for players who enjoy feral melee over Sun grind requirements.
Compare rushdown options on the Breathing tier list. Beast beats Wind C-tier mobility trades but lacks Stone guard-break utility. Bind Combat Potions via the console potion guide before challenging ranked with hyper armor strings.
