How to Get Slayers 2 Nightfall Sickles: The Ultimate Guide

Finding the best gear in Slayers 2 is the ultimate goal for any serious player, and the Slayers 2 Nightfall Sickles currently stand as the most sought-after weapon in the game. Known for their devastating combat efficiency, these sickles are not merely handed out—they are locked behind a challenging, lever puzzle that has left many players searching for answers.

This guide retains a reported lever route and explains what to check at the forge. Keep a checklist of activated levers and confirm the selected recipe before farming materials.

The Mystery of the Nightfall Sickles Puzzle

The route below is a community-reported ten-lever checklist leading to the schematic. We retained its landmarks to make the route usable, but did not complete it in the current game build during this review. Confirm each lever and the gate state in your own session; the checklist is not proof of server-wide progress.

Community reports emphasize that these levers are player-sided but must be activated on the same server session. The current reconnect behavior has not been tested here. Record your activated levers and check their visible state if you reconnect.

Pro Navigation Tip Before embarking on your hunt, set your spawn point at the pink crystal in Iceveil Settlement. This is a massive time-saver, especially when you need to traverse the underwater sections of the map.

Preparation: What You Need Before You Start

Success in this quest requires more than just luck; it demands preparation. The route covers diverse biomes including treacherous snowy peaks and deep, dark waters.

According to veteran player experience, setting your graphics settings to "four gray bars" (a common trick) can significantly reduce the game's depth-of-field blur, making it much easier to spot the levers tucked away in underwater crevices.

Mapping the 10 Red Lever Locations

Locating these levers is the most time-consuming part of the process. While you do not need to pull them in a specific order, following a logical path will save you hours of backtracking.

Lever Locations Summary Table

For the pagoda lever (Lever 3), you will need to utilize a movement-based ability to scale the outer balcony, as the ledge is quite narrow. Always check that the lever has turned green; if it remains red, the system has not registered your interaction.

Accessing the Forgotten Ruins

Once all 10 levers have been successfully toggled to green, you must head to the gate near Mistfall Harbor. If the gates are closed, verify your progress by checking the levers again. Many players often miss the underwater levers, which are the most common source of frustration.

Upon reaching the area, locate the large circular sewer grate on the side of the mountain. This is the entrance to the Forgotten Ruins. Once inside, you will find the altar containing the Slayers 2 Nightfall Sickles schematic. Once you have the schematic in your inventory, you no longer need to complete the lever puzzle; you can then proceed to the blacksmith in the Hidden Mist Village to begin the final phase of your weapon upgrade.

Crafting Requirements and Costs

The Slayers 2 Nightfall Sickles come with a steep crafting price. Beyond the time spent on the puzzle, you will need to grind for specific resources to complete the item at Blacksmith Togane.

The previous version of this page listed a million-Wen recipe and 1,000 of each material. Those figures are not a verified current Sickles recipe. Before farming, select Nightfall Sickles at Togane and record the base weapon name, target tier, schematic, material counters and Wen cost. Do not substitute a Katana or Mask recipe: different items and tiers have different requirements.

The schematic unlock route and the crafting bill are separate steps. Keep the required base weapon until the recipe is checked, and distinguish crafting a new tier from refining its plus level.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I have to find all the levers again if I leave the server?

The route is commonly reported as session-sensitive, but reconnect behavior has not been tested for the current build here. Keep a checklist of the levers you activated and inspect their states if the gate remains closed. Do not assume a disconnect erased the schematic you already obtained.

Is there a specific order for pulling the levers?

There is no required order, but we highly recommend following a geographical path to minimize travel time. Start from the spawn and move outward toward the coastal and underwater areas.

What should I do if the gate to the Forgotten Ruins is closed?

Recheck the listed levers and confirm their visible states. If they appear complete but the gate is still closed, do not assume another lever or a progress reset: check whether your session or the current version has an additional condition.

Are the Slayers 2 Nightfall Sickles worth the effort?

They are a long-term option for a compatible build, not an essential upgrade for every player. Compare your usable moves, current weapon, tier and material budget before committing to the hunt.
