In Rune Slayer, factions play a huge role in shaping your journey. Right now, there are two main factions: Sacred Blade and Demon Sa. If you’re trying to figure out which side to join—or just how to get there—this guide has you covered.Rune Slayer Factions Guide: How to Join and What to Expect
Sacred Blade Faction (The Angelic Path)
The Sacred Blade faction represents the more noble and disciplined warriors. If you’re looking for a faction that embodies order and strength, this might be the way to go.
How to Join Sacred Blade
- Find the NPC who offers a lift and accept the ride.
- Once you’re up, take a turn and head towards the meeting area.
- Climb up the stairs, follow the path, and look for a group of people at a meeting.
- Speak to the faction leader to see your options and join.
- You’ll also get access to their faction-exclusive weapons, including gauntlets and daggers.
The Sacred Blade’s weapons look pretty sick, so if you’re into stylish combat gear, this faction might be a solid choice.
Demon Sa Faction (The Dark Side)
The Demon Sa faction is much harder to access, but if you’re into chaos and destruction, it might be worth the grind. This faction lets you take a more aggressive playstyle—possibly even allowing you to kill players.
How to Join Demon Sa
- Head to the Demon World Gate and pay 5 Silver to enter.
- Once inside, avoid enemy fireballs and lava (instant death) as you make your way deeper.
- There’s a red portal—this is your gateway to the Demon faction’s stronghold.
- Step through the portal to reach their base, where you can talk to the faction leader and take on missions.
The weapons for this faction are still a mystery, but the Sacred Blade’s gear looks cooler—at least from what’s been seen so far.
Which Faction Should You Choose?
- Sacred Blade = Order, powerful weapons, and a structured faction.
- Demon Sa = Chaos, potential for PvP action, and a more challenging path.
Both factions are currently at war, so choose wisely!
