Demonfall has proven to be one of the most challenging and addictive anime-inspired RPGs on Roblox. As a demon slayer, you‘ll need lightning reflexes, strategic mastery, and an intricate knowledge of game mechanics to survive against the demon onslaught.
This comprehensive guide aims to provide everything a beginner needs to go from fumbling fledgling to demon-slaying expert. I‘ll be breaking down ALL the key controls and most advanced tips for dominating Demonfall combat.
Let‘s start by getting you up to speed on what Demonfall is all about.
All About Demonfall on Roblox
Demonfall draws heavily from the dark fantasy world of Demon Slayer, putting you in the role of a young warrior out for vengeance. After your family is slaughtered by demons, you join the Demon Slaying Corps to hunt down the monsters that plague humankind.
But these aren‘t just any old demons. Drawing from Demon Slayer lore, the demons you face are organized into an elite Twelve Kizuki, with the numbers indicating their rank of power. Even the weakest Kizuki demon could eviscerate an ordinary human.
To stand a chance, you must master one of the Breathing Styles, based on the elemental martial arts styles from Demon Slayer. As you progress, you unlock new combat arts, stat boosts, and passive effects through your Style‘s skill tree.
Now let‘s get into the keys for survival…

- Heavy Attack on Mouse Button
Finding a setup that perfectly suits your reflexes and playstyle is crucial. Don‘t be afraid to experiment.
Now let‘s get into the tips and strategies for survival.
Key Tips for Mastering Combat
Simply knowing the controls won‘t keep you alive for long. You‘ll need to ingrain these essential combat tactics:
Precious Stamina
Stamina powers your abilities to sprint, attack, and block. Depleting it leaves you a sitting duck. Avoid spamming attacks or sprints – instead plan your movements strategically. Let stamina regenerate fully between engagements.
Fluid Movement
Spamming block will get you killed quicker than anything. Focus on fluid movement like dashing, zig-zagging, jumping and ducking to evade attacks unscathed. Good footwork separates the masters from the mediocre.
Hit and Run Tactics
Many demons have slow, powerful attacks that are easy to avoid – but leave them vulnerable after whiffing. Dash in for a few quick hits then retreat out of range. Rinse and repeat to wittle down health safely.
Element of Surprise
Stealth and ambush tactics work great on overconfident demons. Catch them off guard with a Lunge from behind or use terrain for cover. Their lifebars will melt before they realize what‘s happening.
Balanced Offense
Mix up light and heavy attacks to keep opponents guessing. Light attacks are fast but weaker, while heavy attacks deal massive damage but are slow and predictable. Find the right balance to maximize damage output.
Invest in Breathing
Unlocking all the abilities and passive buffs on your Breathing Style skill tree is absolutely crucial. Prioritize investing points here before any other skill. The power spike is massive.
Farm Efficiently
Repeatedly killing certain demons offers the fastest routes for gaining exp and gold. For new players, focus on Farming Server-Hopping for Kaigaku, the weakest Upper Moon demon. With good gear and strategy, he‘s easy pickings.
Get Social
Joining a strong clan unlocks many benefits like free buffs, clan battles, and opportunities to farm powerful demons. Search forums and Discord for open clans aligned with your playstyle.
Learn Enemy Weaknesses
Certain demons and bosses have vulnerabilities to exploit. For example, Sabito takes bonus damage when attacked from behind. Study enemy patterns closely and experiment to discover and abuse their weaknesses.
Fix Your Bad Habits
Many players develop habits that hinder their potential. Face-tanking hits, button mashing, over-sprinting everywhere. Identify and consciously break free from your bad habits to elevate your game.
That covers the most vital knowledge to master. Now let‘s get into the specific demon-slaying strategies…
Advanced Strategies for Demons and Bosses
The demon bosses require tailored strategies and mastery of mechanics to defeat. Here are tips for taking down some of the toughest:
Kaigaku, Upper Moon Six
Despite being the weakest Upper Moon, Kaigaku is still lethal. His quick triple palm thrust can delete your HP if caught unprepared.
- Sidestep his palm thrust combo then punish
- Use ranged attacks to chip away from safety
- Lure him into NPC slayers for backup
Swamp Demon
This hulking brute hits like a truck with his giant club. Avoid getting cornered by the poisonous marsh waters.
- Dodge sideways to avoid his heavy swings
- Attack from behind then retreat when he charges poison
-Lure him into the temple for cover
Sabito
Your old training buddy turned demon. His after-image ability lets him confuse and outmaneuver you.
- Listen for audio cues to follow the real Sabito
- Attack from behind for bonus damage
- Save stamina to escape his rapid slashes
And those are just a taste of what it takes to overcome each challenge. With dedicated practice and the right strategies, even the mightiest demons will fall before your blade. Now get out there and start slaying! The fate of humanity rests on your shoulders.
