  • Armless Detective Beginner Guide – Evidence & Update

    The latest update for Armless Detective brings new cases, hidden clues, and a bunch of tricky evidence types that can easily throw off new players. If you’re diving into the bathroom case or tackling the massive five-star mansion, this guide will walk you through every piece of evidence, what it means, and how to find it.

    Understanding the Basics

    Each map in Armless Detective has different suspects, and your goal is to figure out who’s responsible by collecting evidence. Every clue links to a personality trait or crime habit — like being a public vandalizer, arsonist, or known looter.
    You’ll use gadgets like the magnet, hand gadget, and X-ray scanner to uncover these clues.

    1. Bathroom Case – All Evidence Explained

    The bathroom map has four new clues, each tied to specific suspect behaviors. Let’s break them down:

    Public Vandalizer

    How to Find: Use the magnet on the broken sinks.

    Clue Result: If the magnet is attracted to them, your suspect is the public vandalizer.

    Common Mistake: The graffiti-on-painting clue belongs to another map — ignore it here.

    Mouse Trails

    How to Find: Use the hand gadget on mouse holes around the bathroom and storage area.

    Clue Result: If a mouse comes out of the hole, that means the suspect leaves mice behind.

    Tip: Check every hole. There’s a hidden one in the storage room that’s easy to miss.


    Finding the Storage Room Key

    How to Unlock: The key spawns randomly, but sometimes it’s inside the toilet.

    Use the Hand Gadget to search the toilet. If you find the key, you can open the storage room.


    The Shoe Clue

    How to Find: Look for a shoe lying around in open areas.

    Clue Result: The suspect is someone who forgets to take their shoes off — a behavioral hint.


    Hidden Objects

    How to Find: Carefully inspect inside sinks. You might spot gadget parts mixed with cups.

    Clue Result: The suspect likes to hide evidence or objects.


    Arsonist Sign

    How to Find: If you see fire or smoke coming out of the toilet, it’s a big giveaway.

    Clue Result: Your suspect is an arsonist.


    Known Looter

    How to Find: Check the storage room once it’s unlocked.

    Clue Result:

    If the room is messy, the suspect is not a looter.

    If it’s too clean, that confirms they’re the known looter.


    2. Five-Star Case – Advanced Map & Evidence

    This mansion-level map is much larger and harder to navigate. Here’s how each piece of evidence works:

    Bookworm

    • How to Find: Visit the library and inspect the area.
    • Clue Result: If it’s messy or filled with scattered books, the suspect is a bookworm.

    Public Vandalizer

    How to Find: Use the X-ray gadget to inspect paintings around the house.

    Clue Result: If a painting has pen marks or graffiti, that’s your vandalizer.


    Tooth Fairy Believer

    How to Find: Go to Mr. Moola’s Room, and use the hand gadget to lift the pillow.

    Clue Result: A tooth under the pillow means the suspect believes in the Tooth Fairy.


    Wealthy Suspect

    How to Find: Use the magnet again.

    Clue Result: If it attracts a diamond, that confirms your suspect is rich.


    Bobby Pins

    How to Find: Look carefully around the map for bobby pins on the floor or near furniture.

    Clue Result: These indicate that the suspect was recently at the scene — a solid trail marker.


    3. New Features Recap

    Here’s what the latest update added to Armless Detective:

    • New Bathroom Case and Five-Star Mansion Case
    • Expanded evidence system with more personality clues
    • Improved gadget interaction (hand, magnet, X-ray)
    • Random key spawn system
    • Visual storytelling updates in each case
    • And of course, the Mr. Moola murder storyline at the end of the mansion mission

    4. How to Complete a Case

    Once you think you’ve gathered all the right clues:

    1. Review your collected evidence.
    2. Match each clue to the suspect’s behavior or personality type.
    3. Head to the exit and confirm your choice.
    4. If you’re correct, the detective congratulates you — if not, recheck the evidence you might’ve missed.

    The new update transforms Armless Detective into a deeper, more puzzle-driven experience. Each case demands careful observation, gadget use, and logical deduction. Whether you’re checking the sinks for hidden gadgets or finding diamonds with your magnet, every detail matters.

  • How to Find Pumpkin Jack (Black Merchant) in Sol’s RNG

    Pumpkin Jack is back for the Halloween event, but finding him isn’t as simple as walking around the map — he’s a special nighttime spawn NPC known as the Black Merchant. If you’re looking to trade your bounty medals or grab exclusive Halloween items, here’s exactly how to find him.

    Who is Pumpkin Jack?

    Pumpkin Jack is the Black Market Merchant in Sol’s RNG, and during the Halloween event, he’s your go-to NPC for exclusive trades. You can exchange Bounty Medals (earned by completing daily aura hunts) for limited event rewards — from Halloween cosmetics to special items you won’t see again after the event ends.

    Where to Find Pumpkin Jack

    Finding him is easy once you know when and where to look:

    Wait Until Nighttime
    Pumpkin Jack only spawns during the night. You won’t see him at all during the daytime, so keep an eye on the in-game lighting. Once the world gets darker and the sky turns purple or black, that’s your cue to start moving.

    Head Toward the Black Market Location
    The merchant spawns near his usual black market area — the same location used in past seasonal events. You’ll recognize it by the glowing orange pumpkins and spooky ambient lighting.

    Look for Pumpkin Jack’s Stall
    When you arrive, look for a small area lit up with lanterns and pumpkins. Pumpkin Jack stands near a dark wooden stall, easily recognizable by his glowing pumpkin head and black cloak. Once he’s there, you can interact with him to open his shop.

    When He’s Available

    Pumpkin Jack only appears at night, and once daylight returns, he disappears again. If you miss him, don’t worry — he’ll return the following night. The cycle repeats throughout the entire Halloween event.


    What He Sells

    Inside Pumpkin Jack’s shop, you’ll find:

    • Event-exclusive gear
    • Cosmetic Halloween auras
    • Special materials or trade items
    • Daily bounty rewards (exchanged via Bounty Medals)

    His stock may rotate or change throughout the event, so make sure to check back often.

    Quick Tips

    • If you don’t see Pumpkin Jack, wait until the next night cycle.
    • Bring your Bounty Medals before you go — his shop won’t open otherwise.
    • Join a private server if you want to check his spawn without server lag or crowds.
  • Sol’s RNG Halloween Update Guide (October 2025)

    The long-awaited Halloween event has arrived in Sol’s RNG, and it’s easily the biggest seasonal update the game has ever had. If you’ve been waiting for new auras, spooky biomes, and limited-time collectibles — this Sol’s RNG Halloween Update Guide packed with everything you’d expect from a Halloween event and more.

    Sol’s RNG Halloween Update Guide (October 2025)

    1. New Halloween Biomes

    The update introduces three brand-new event biomes, each themed around the Halloween season. These areas bring a darker, eerie atmosphere, complete with unique ambient effects and Halloween visuals. Exploring them is worth your time — this is where most of the limited auras can be found.


    2. 15 Limited-Time Auras

    There are 15 brand-new Halloween auras, all available for a limited duration during the event. These are designed with creepy effects, glowing energy, and visual styles that perfectly fit the season.

    Every aura has its own unique animation and rarity, with some being ultra-rare and extremely difficult to obtain. While the video didn’t list their exact drop chances, it’s safe to say that a few of these will end up among the most sought-after in the game — similar to event auras from previous years.


    3. Pumpkin Jack Returns

    The fan-favorite NPC Pumpkin Jack is back as a bounty hunter. Here’s how it works:

    • You’ll get a daily target aura to hunt.
    • Once you obtain that aura, you’ll receive a Bounty Medal.
    • These medals can be exchanged at Pumpkin Jack’s shop for various Halloween-exclusive rewards.

    So if you want everything from this event, make sure you check in daily and complete those bounties before the reset.


    4. Lime’s Vampire Quest

    Another cool addition is that Lime has become a vampire this Halloween. There’s a new questline for her that gives you a temporary buff after completion.

    If you own the Blood Pack item, it’ll be consumed to enhance that buff, giving you a stronger effect for a limited time. This small side quest adds a fun lore element and a bit of strategy to the event.


    5. Halloween Shop & Items

    There’s now a 20% chance for Halloween items to appear in the Daily Shop. These can include themed cosmetics, collectibles, or special event items that you won’t be able to buy once the event ends — so it’s worth checking the shop each day.


    6. No New Codes (Yet)

    As of this update, no new codes have been added. The event mainly focuses on the new content, auras, and exploration rather than free bonuses. But keep an eye out — developers might drop event codes later during the Halloween period.

    This Halloween update focuses on limited-time content and exploration rather than pure grinding. Between the new biomes, exclusive auras, and returning NPCs, it’s a solid seasonal event that rewards daily play.

    The community’s already debating which of the 15 new auras looks the best — so if you’ve got a favorite, drop it in the comments or share screenshots with your friends.

  • Pls Donate Halloween Update 2025 Guide – Codes, Manor Obby

    The Halloween Update 2025 transforms the entire game into a creepy, festive wonderland. Expect glowing pumpkins, eerie fog, haunted decorations, and that classic “October vibe” everywhere you go. Beyond the visuals, there’s a new obby challenge, a limited-time booth lineup, and even fresh codes for free rewards and discounts.

    Halloween-Styled Map

    Step into a fully Halloween-themed version of the Pls Donate plaza.
    You’ll find floating candles, spooky jack-o’-lanterns, spiderwebs, and a darker nighttime ambience that fits the season perfectly. It’s not just a reskin — it’s a full seasonal transformation that makes every stand look even cooler under the eerie lighting.

    Halloween Manor Obby

    If you love challenges, head straight to the Halloween Manor Obby. It’s packed with tricky jumps, hidden paths, and those annoying-but-fun moving platforms. Beat it, and you’ll unlock a free in-game reward — perfect for flexing to your friends or showing off at your booth.

    Pro Tip:
    Some players report the final section being a bit tricky — take your time, don’t rush the moving parts, and watch for hidden checkpoints.

    New Global Donation Effect

    Generosity now comes with flair! Any donation above 5K triggers a new global donation effect that everyone in the server can see. It’s flashy, loud, and guaranteed to make people look your way. If you’ve got the Giftbux, now’s your time to shine.

    New Limited-Time Robux Booths

    The star of this update for collectors is the new limited Halloween booth lineup.
    The highlight is the Jack in the Box Booth, priced at 2,499 Robux. It’s a creepy mechanical clown-themed stand that pops up with a jump-scare twist.

    Alongside that, there’s a whole collection of Halloween-themed booths — each with its own haunted design and visual effects. These are time-limited, so grab them before the event ends.

    Redeemable Codes

    Don’t forget to redeem these new codes while the event lasts:

    • HAUNTED → Redeem for 30 Giftbux
    • HALLOWEEN30 → Redeem for 30% off in-game purchases

    Use these in the in-game code section to claim your rewards instantly.

    The Halloween Update 2025 is one of the most creative and community-focused updates we’ve seen in Pls Donate so far. Between the new obby, flashy donation effects, and collectible booths, it perfectly captures the Halloween vibe while giving players new reasons to donate, explore, and show off.

    If you’re serious about building up your booth collection — or just love limited-time cosmetics — make sure to play before the update vanishes at the end of October.

  •  Anime Guardians UPD 16 + CSM 2 Update – Denji, Codes

    The Anime Guardians UPD 16 + CSM 2 Update has officially dropped in Anime Guardians, and it’s easily one of the most ambitious additions yet. This patch doesn’t just bring more Chainsaw Man content — it adds new bosses, units, and mechanics that seriously ramp up the late-game challenge. Whether you’re here to grab Denji (Chainsaw Man) or test out the new Darkness Devil, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know — from farming the new world boss to the stats and passives of each new unit.

     Anime Guardians UPD 16 + CSM 2 Update – Denji, Darkness Devil

    Event Title: Chainsaw Man Part 2

    Main Additions:

    New Chainsaw Man Units (Denji, Darkness Devil, Power)

    New World Boss Stage

    Chainsaw Man-themed Bundle Units

    Updated currency & capsule rewards

    Balance tweaks for late-game nukers

    This update focuses heavily on endgame players but is accessible to anyone with a coordinated team or a strong carry.

    How To Access The New Stage

    You can enter the new Chainsaw Man World Boss stage directly through the main event portal in Anime Guardians.

    You’ll need a team of at least 4–6 players — soloing is not recommended due to the boss’s massive HP pool (around 8 billion HP).

    The boss fight features unique mechanics, including unit-stunning and instant elimination effects on specific debuffs.

    Each wave gets progressively harder until Wave 50, where the main boss is defeated and drops the new units or event currency.

    World Boss Strategy (How To Clear It Efficiently)

    The fight can look chaotic the first time you enter, but there’s a clear rhythm once you understand the setup.

    Recommended Setup:

    Place farm units early (far back from spawn) to avoid deletion from the boss’s stun mechanics.

    Once farms are active, move forward and deploy your main DPS units.

    Robin remains one of the best units for farm speed since she maxes your units instantly when placed.

    Rely on strong nukers like Sukuna, Hajun, or Darkness Devil for clearing high-HP enemies.

    Pro Tip: If you’re struggling to clear the boss solo, join community lobbies or Discord servers — coordinated teams can easily melt through its HP.

    How To Obtain the New Units

    1. Darkness Devil

    Drop Source: Chainsaw Man World Boss (rare drop)

    Rarity: Mythical

    Type: DPS / Nuke

    Strengths: High burst damage and wide AoE control

    Notes: This unit’s model is one of the most detailed in the game, and its damage output competes with top-tier nukers like Hajun and Sukuna.


    2. Denji (Chainsaw Man)

    Availability: Purchase through the Chainsaw Man Bundle (2,000 Robux) or extremely rare from the boss drops.

    Rarity: Mythical

    Special Trait Compatibility: Exodia (best-in-slot for max scaling)

    Recommended Level: 100

    Base Stats (Level 100):

    Damage: 2.3 million

    Attack Speed: 3.8 seconds

    Range: 158

    Crit Chance: 50%

    AoE Type: Full AoE

    Passives & Effects:

    Chains of Oblivion:
    Instantly gains 50% energy, deals damage to all enemies on the map, and boosts own damage by 1,000%.

    Bloody Overdrive:
    Increases self-damage based on Power Points. Each hit inflicts a 15% bleed instantly.

    Chainsaw Frenzy:
    Builds Power Points with each attack (up to 100%). Gains black damage and crit chance as points increase.

    Madness Mode (Berserk Awakening):
    At 100% Power Points, enters a 15-second frenzy that grants +100% damage, +40% range, and -20% cooldown before resetting Power Points.

    Evaluation:

    Denji’s kit revolves around scaling damage over time and entering madness mode for huge spikes of DPS. While he isn’t completely overpowered, his range and crit scaling make him one of the most consistent all-map DPS units.

    3. Power

    • Drop Source: World Boss (rare)
    • Role: AoE damage dealer with bleed synergy
    • Status: Slightly lower tier than Denji or Darkness Devil but still very solid for bleed setups.

    4. Ellen Joe (ZZZ Crossover Unit)

    Although not from the Chainsaw Man series, Ellen Joe (Zed) was added in the same update. She’s a crit-based nuker with map-freeze potential.

    Abilities:

    • Frost End:
      Full-map nuke that boosts her damage by 442% and freezes all enemies for 30 seconds.

    Passives:

    • Frost Mark:
      Critical hits mark enemies, making her next hit double damage and guaranteed to crit.
    • Killing Tempo:
      Each crit adds a stack that, at 5 stacks, turns her next attack into full AoE critical damage that freezes all enemies.

    Verdict: Ellen Joe is a top-tier support nuke unit that freezes enemies and stacks damage over time — a great pair for Chainsaw Man teams.

    Recommended Traits

    If you manage to pull or buy these new units, aim for the Exodia trait — it maximizes raw power scaling, cooldown reduction, and crit potential.
    It can take a few thousand rerolls, but for DPS-heavy units like Denji, it’s worth it.

    This Chainsaw Man Part 2 Update is a huge win for Anime Guardians. The devs nailed both the visual design and mechanical depth — especially for Denji and Darkness Devil.

    After testing both, here’s the honest take:

    • Denji (Chainsaw Man): Excellent all-around DPS with some of the best range and crit synergy in the game.
    • Darkness Devil: Massive burst damage and arguably stronger for short encounters.
    • Ellen Joe: Exceptional for freeze setups and nuke support.

    If you’re short on luck from world boss farming, the Chainsaw Man Bundle is a straightforward buy — expensive, yes, but it saves countless hours of RNG farming.

  • How to Get All NEW Relics and Shadows (Halloween 2 Update)

    The Halloween 2 Update in Arise Crossover didn’t just bring spooky cosmetics — it introduced brand-new relics, shadows, and titles that completely change the late-game grind. Between the Infinite Labyrinth, the Infernal Castle rework, and the new Spooky Shop, there’s a lot to unpack. This guide breaks down how to get every new relic and shadow, where to find them, and which ones are actually worth your grind time.

    1. Redeem the New Halloween Codes

    Before doing anything, claim the two new codes from the event:

    • HALLOWEEN2
    • INFINITELABYRINTH

    These codes give a solid resource boost and some bonus currency to kickstart your progression toward the new relics and shadows.

    To redeem:

    • Open the settings menu
    • Tap on Codes
    • Enter them exactly as written (no spaces)

    Once you’ve done this, you’ll have enough to jump into the new content zones.

    2. New Shadows from the Battle Pass

    The new Battle Pass is a key part of this update, offering multiple new Shadows and one unique weapon across its 150 levels.

    Notable additions include:

    • Bones Anders – visually striking with solid early stats (R+ rank)
    • Arleg Kino Zero – can also be earned through AFK rewards
    • Additional Halloween-themed Shadows tied to pass milestones

    Progressing through the pass also grants tons of experience, helping you reach the new level cap of 800 faster.

    Tip: Don’t claim all your Battle Pass rewards at once if you’re still leveling; claim them strategically to maximize XP gains before hitting the cap.

    3. Halloween Island – Spooky Shop & Relics

    Once you unlock World 2, head to the new Halloween Island — the central event zone for this update.

    Here’s what you’ll find:

    • 3 new enemies and rank-scaled brutes that count as mini world bosses
    • Spooky Shop, which sells:
      • 4 new mounts
      • 2 new relics
      • Exclusive event currency (Spooky Shards)

    How to Farm Spooky Shards

    • Defeat enemies and brutes on the Halloween Island
    • Higher rank = higher drop rate
    • Exchange them at the Spooky Shop for relics and other event items

    Important: Some relics might initially seem underpowered — a few E-rank relics provide minimal stat boosts at base levels but improve drastically when upgraded.

    4. The Infinite Labyrinth – Endgame Relic Source

    The Infinite Labyrinth is where the most powerful relics and shadows are found.

    Available Relics:

    1. Fang of the Moon
    2. Abyssal Call
    3. Thread of Fate (Most recommended)
    4. Spirit of Lament

    Thread of Fate stands out for its Shadow Level +25 bonus (B rank) and strong all-round damage scaling. It’s one of the best current relics for hybrid builds focusing on shadow DPS.

    Where to Get: Drops randomly from higher floors of the Infinite Labyrinth. You’ll need a well-optimized team to survive — builds that focus on shadow split teams perform best here due to boss scaling.

    5. Infernal Castle – Floor 225 Relic Drop

    The Infernal Castle now extends beyond floor 200, adding checkpoints and new relic drops up to floor 225.

    New Additions:

    • 4 new titles
    • 4 new relics
    • 4 new shadows

    Floor 225 Relic

    • Drops a 500% Shadow Power relic
    • Currently viewed as underwhelming — high effort for minimal DPS return
    • Better suited for weapon-based builds than pure shadow damage setups

    However, the Thread of Fate and the relics tied to Labyrinth farming still outperform it for shadow-heavy players.

    Boss Note: The boss at floor 225 is Luffy — a tough endurance fight that demands strong DPS output and survivability.

    6. Best Relics to Use Right Now

    After testing the latest additions, these are currently the most effective relics to focus on:

    Relic Name Source Effectiveness Notes
    Thread of Fate Infinite Labyrinth ★★★★★ Best for Shadow DPS; adds 25 shadow levels
    Fang of the Moon Infinite Labyrinth ★★★★☆ Great hybrid relic; good early drop
    Spirit of Lament Spooky Shop ★★★☆☆ Decent support relic, boosts early survivability
    500% Shadow Power Relic Infernal Castle (Floor 225) ★★☆☆☆ Situational, more useful for weapon scaling
    Abyssal Call Infinite Labyrinth ★★★★☆ Balanced relic; synergizes with Shadow-based weapons

    7. Shadow & Build Tips

    • Shadow Damage builds scale best with relics that add direct shadow levels (like Thread of Fate).
    • Weapon-based builds might benefit more from GM+ relics or those offering flat power boosts.
    • Keep an eye on your dust resources — upgrading relics past GM is expensive and easily drains materials.

    8. AFK Rewards Bonus

    The AFK system now grants the Arleg Kino Zero (Rank Shadow) — one of the better passive rewards this update. Even if you’re offline, you’ll accumulate progress and earn this high-tier shadow over time.

    The new relics and shadows in the Halloween 2 Update make this one of the most rewarding grinds yet in Arise Crossover.
    While not every relic is equally strong, the Infinite Labyrinth clearly takes the spotlight — both for its intensity and its powerful drops.

  • Blade X Zombies Tier List (2025) – Best Swords for Beginners

    In Blade X Zombies, your sword isn’t just a weapon — it’s your entire identity. Every slash, parry, and skill chain defines how you’ll survive against the endless undead horde. Some blades are designed for pure destruction, clearing waves like a storm. Others are precise, surgical boss killers meant to shred health bars in seconds.

    This tier list covers every major sword currently available, tested across both wave-clearing potential and boss DPS, while also considering mobility, skill uptime, and ease of use.

    Whether you’re just starting or deep in the grind for mythic weapons, this guide breaks down what’s worth your time — and what’s better left on the ground.

    S TIER – God Blades

    Hallow Scythe (Mythic – Limited)

    Role: Hybrid AoE / Boss DPS
    Overview:
    The undisputed king of Blade X Zombies. The Hallow Scythe comes packed with eight active skills — double the usual loadout — and every one of them melts crowds. Its AoE radius and rotation flow allow near-continuous skill loops, letting you chain cooldowns with dodges until you’re essentially spinning through hordes without pause.

    It’s the only blade that balances flawless wave clearing and serious boss damage, making it the true “one weapon fits all” pick.

    Highlights:

    • Best AoE weapon in the game
    • Competitive boss damage
    • Infinite rotation potential with proper timing

    Weakness: Needs good rhythm and awareness to keep combo loops going.
    Verdict: S-tier dominance — the meta weapon to chase.


    Yamato (Mythic)

    Role: Boss Killer / Precision DPS
    Overview:
    Yamato focuses on surgical single-target destruction. Its laser-like ultimate annihilates bosses faster than any other weapon, while its consistent slashes maintain strong uptime between ult rotations. The trade-off is fragility — lower HP and reliance on perfect parry-dodge play.

    If you can manage the risk, Yamato’s power ceiling is absurd.

    Highlights:

    • Best single-target damage in the game
    • Fast cooldowns for sustained output
    • Balanced AoE that doesn’t feel wasted

    Weakness: Punishing if you mistime defenses.
    Verdict: S-tier for boss fights, top-tier for skilled players.


    Dark Blade (Legendary – Yoru Inspired)

    Role: Balanced DPS / Hybrid Utility
    Overview:
    The Dark Blade is the hidden gem of Blade X Zombies. It’s fast, fluid, and lethal at every range. The wide slashes cut through mobs effortlessly, while its ultimate — a triple slash combo — nukes both bosses and clusters. On top of that, it comes with defensive Z-blocks that can clutch fights when surrounded.

    It’s less flashy than mythics but no less deadly in practice.

    Highlights:

    • Elite AoE damage with reliable hitboxes
    • Hybrid versatility: great for waves and bosses
    • Safe playstyle with ranged poke potential

    Weakness: Slightly lower raw numbers than Yamato or Scythe.
    Verdict: S-tier all-rounder. Perfect for players who want safety and speed.


    A TIER – Strong Contenders

    Shadow Blade (Mythic)

    Role: AoE DPS / Crowd Control
    Overview:
    If you want wave-clearing satisfaction without relying on limited blades, Shadow Blade delivers. Its wide-sweeping moves hit massive groups, while cooldowns stay short enough to maintain momentum. Slightly less seamless than Hallow Scythe, but still elite performance.

    Highlights:

    • Excellent AoE spread
    • Good boss damage with proper chains
    • Satisfying mobility and skill uptime

    Weakness: Minor flow issues compared to S-tier weapons.
    Verdict: Top A-tier weapon. Feels S-tier in the right hands.


    Stormbreaker (Mythic – Limited)

    Role: Burst AoE / Crowd Control
    Overview:
    Stormbreaker rides on pure spectacle. Its recent buffs turned the ultimate into a massive AoE explosion that clears screens instantly. The issue lies in rhythm — M1s are sluggish and skill flow can stutter if you mistime rotations.

    Highlights:

    • Huge AoE potential post-buff
    • Great for wave farming
    • Strong stats carry weaker flow

    Weakness: Clunky base attacks, inconsistent rotation.
    Verdict: A-tier powerhouse with rhythm issues.


    Excalibur (Legendary)

    Role: Wave Control / Reliable Damage
    Overview:
    A refined version of classic holy sword style. Smooth combos, wide area slashes, and consistent wave clear make it a dependable mid-tier grinder. Doesn’t quite reach mythic-level burst, but works well when other blades fail to drop.

    Highlights:

    • Smooth flow and consistent AoE
    • Decent boss utility
    • Great backup sword

    Weakness: Lacks the raw burst of elites.
    Verdict: A-tier, excellent fallback option.


    B TIER – Decent, But Limited

    Katana (Common)

    Role: Speed / Mobility
    Overview:
    Simple, agile, and surprisingly fun. The Katana focuses on dash attacks and high mobility, letting you slice through hordes with style. It falls off fast in late-game damage, but early progression feels great with it.

    Highlights:

    • Fast-paced gameplay
    • Good for early wave kiting
    • Easy to control

    Weakness: Low DPS ceiling, poor boss efficiency.
    Verdict: B-tier starter sword. Carries you until Epics.


    Dragon Slayer (Rare)

    Role: Early AoE / Basic DPS
    Overview:
    Think of Dragon Slayer as the budget Stormbreaker. Its spin attacks deliver decent AoE and early power spikes, but the slow movement makes it risky in tight waves. Serviceable but doesn’t scale.

    Highlights:

    • Great early game clear potential
    • Easy to obtain and use

    Weakness: Weak scaling, low mobility.
    Verdict: B-tier grinder for beginners.


    C TIER – Avoid Unless Desperate

    Water Blade (Epic)

    Role: Heavy Slasher / Underperforming AoE
    Overview:
    Ironically named, since every swing feels like you’re actually underwater. Slow, clunky animations and poor AoE angles make it a frustrating pick. Even after awakening, its damage output lags behind all others.

    Highlights:

    • Looks cool
    • That’s about it

    Weakness: Slow attacks, low DPS, poor reach.
    Verdict: C-tier — skip unless you have no other options.

    The current Blade X Zombies meta favors hybrid blades — weapons that can both shred waves and drop bosses without swapping loadouts.

    If you only have time to grind for one weapon, the Hallow Scythe is the obvious choice. It defines the game’s top-end playstyle and remains unmatched in flexibility.
    But if you prefer speed and skill over chaos, Yamato or Dark Blade give you focused, elegant destruction without depending on RNG drops.

  • Anime Raids Units Tier List (Release Guide)

    Anime Raids is built around your team composition — each unit plays a unique role, and the difference between an S-tier carry and a C-tier filler is massive. Whether you’re grinding through early story Acts or tackling tougher bosses, your lineup will decide how far you can go.

    This tier list breaks down every current hero at release, analyzing their role, performance, enchant synergy, and scaling potential.

    S TIER (Best Units in Anime Raids)

    1. Mysterious (Bleed DPS)

    Role: AoE Damage / Burst DPS
    Why He’s Good: Massive AoE, extremely fast cooldowns, and applies Bleed for bonus damage over time. Clears waves like nothing else.
    Best Enchants: Apollo / Sharingan / Rage
    Build Tip: Stack Crit and Cooldown stats. He snowballs hard with early enchants.
    Verdict: Top-tier carry. Absolutely melts through early acts and scales well late-game.


    2. Rino (Quick Freeze)

    Role: Crowd Control / AoE DPS
    Why He’s Good: Freezes enemies — even bosses — completely locking them down. Solid AoE, consistent damage, and works great in auto battles.
    Best Enchants: Apollo / Sharingan / Magician
    Verdict: Essential control unit. When he’s on your team, you dictate the fight.


    3. Tangero (Carbon Dealer)

    Role: AoE Tank / Frontline Bruiser

    Verdict: Best Legendary for new players. Carries through the first three Acts comfortably.


    4. Sakura (Medical Ninja)

    Role: Support / Healer
    Why She’s Good: The only consistent healer early game. Keeps your frontliners alive through boss fights and AoE waves.
    Best Enchants: Sharingan / Saint / Magician
    Verdict: S-tier for early game. You’ll eventually outgrow her, but she’s clutch in Acts 1–4.


    5. Igris (Shadow Knight)

    Role: Tank / Damage-over-Time
    Why He’s Good: Absorbs hits while applying burning or shadow-based DoT. Looks amazing and scales with proper relics.

    Verdict: Stylish and strong. Reliable tank that doesn’t fall off.


    6. Sasuke (Rebel Ninja)

    Role: AoE DPS / Easy Ascend
    Why He’s Good: Great damage for his rarity, low cooldowns, and accessible early.
    Best Enchants: Apollo / Rage / Magician
    Verdict: Best rare in the game. Still relevant long after you move into mythic-tier units.


    7. Naruto (Noodles Ninja)

    Role: AoE DPS
    Why He’s Good: Simple but effective. Consistent AoE with solid scaling for a rare unit.
    Best Enchants: Apollo / Rage / Magician
    Verdict: Beginner-friendly S-tier pick. Great starter carry.


    A TIER (Strong and Reliable Picks)

    1. Sabre (Might King)

    Role: Burst DPS
    Why She’s Good: Heavy-hitting attacks that destroy bosses, but slow cooldowns limit uptime.
    Best Enchants: Rage / Cooldown / Apollo
    Verdict: A-tier damage dealer. Devastating when built right, but needs gear to shine.


    2. Katakuri (Gluttonous)

    Role: Off-Tank / Stun Support
    Why He’s Good: Decent balance of defense and control. Can stun enemies with vertigo effects.
    Best Enchants: Avalon / Self-Healing / Tank
    Verdict: Reliable frontline. Not flashy but gets the job done.


    3. Nezuko (Demon Sister)

    Role: AoE DPS / Off-Tank
    Why She’s Good: Can hit multiple enemies and soak up damage. Good transitional unit for early players.
    Best Enchants: Avalon / Apollo / Tank
    Verdict: Early game backbone. Solid carry before mythic unlocks.


    4. Shobu (Butterfly)

    Role: Tank / AoE Hybrid
    Why She’s Good: Decent balance between defense and damage. Easy to slot into most teams.
    Best Enchants: Avalon / Tank / Rage
    Verdict: Good hybrid pick. Holds the line while contributing to DPS.


    5. Luffy (Straw Hat)

    Role: Stun / Frontline Tank
    Why He’s Good: Reliable crowd control with short stuns. Great for early clearing.
    Best Enchants: Avalon / Tank / Saint
    Verdict: A-tier for early game. Falls off later but remains useful early on.


    6. Bulma (Genius Scientist)

    Role: Support / Team Buff
    Why She’s Good: Increases team attack by roughly 30%. Great team synergy, especially for AoE comps.
    Best Enchants: Magician / Saint / Sharingan
    Verdict: A-tier support. Massive burst windows during her buff uptime.


    B TIER (Situational or Average Units)

    1. Whitebeard (Sea King)

    Role: Tank / Crowd Control
    Why He’s Good: Extremely tanky and weakens enemies. Perfect for holding aggro but weak in damage output.
    Best Enchants: Avalon / Self-Healing / Tank
    Verdict: B-tier wall. Great defensive option, low DPS.


    2. Gojo (Infinite)

    Role: Boss Killer / Single Target DPS
    Why He’s Good: High burst damage and short cooldowns. Shreds bosses but lacks AoE.
    Best Enchants: Apollo / Rage / Cooldown
    Verdict: B-tier specialist. Amazing for raids, not great for waves.


    3. Noara

    Role: AoE DPS
    Why She’s Good: Great starter for clearing mobs. Falls off mid to late game.
    Best Enchants: Apollo / Sharingan / Magician
    Verdict: Solid B-tier starter. Use her until mythic AoE units are available.


    4. Choi (Human Strongest Weapon)

    Role: Single Target DPS / DoT
    Why He’s Good: Applies damage over time but low total DPS compared to Gojo or Mysterious.
    Best Enchants: Rage / Apollo / Cooldown
    Verdict: B-tier pick. Interesting mechanic but lacks finishing power.


    5. Toi (Spellcaster)

    Role: Support / Debuffer
    Why He’s Good: Reduces enemy defense, allowing your team to deal more damage.
    Weakness: Very long cooldowns. Needs gear investment.
    Verdict: B-tier support. Potentially A-tier with cooldown relics.


    6. Goku (Kiong Master)

    Role: Single Target DPS / Bruiser
    Why He’s Good: Average in every stat. Not bad, but nothing special either.
    Best Enchants: Rage / Tank / Apollo
    Verdict: Balanced B-tier. Great filler until stronger DPS arrives.


    C TIER (Not Recommended for Investment)

    Currently, there aren’t many truly bad units at launch, but a few fall off hard past early Acts or require too much setup to be worthwhile.
    Examples include base Rares without AoE or crowd control, or slow supports with poor uptime.


    Recommended Early Game Team

    Slot Unit Role
    1 Tangero Frontline Tank
    2 Sakura Healer
    3 Mysterious Main DPS
    4 Rino CC / Freeze
    5 Sasuke Flexible DPS

    Why this team works: It balances sustain, AoE, and CC. You’ll breeze through early dungeons without relying on heavy RNG summons.


    Best Enchant Combos

    Enchant Effect Recommended Units
    Apollo Boosts Crit Damage Mysterious, Rino, Noara
    Sharingan Boosts Speed & Attack Sasuke, Sakura, Rino
    Avalon Healing and Tank Buff Tangero, Katakuri, Whitebeard
    Rage High Burst Damage Gojo, Sabre, Choi
    Magician Skill Cooldown Reduction Rino, Sakura, Bulma

    Anime Raids’ early meta rewards AoE burst and CC-heavy teams more than raw single-target power.
    If you’re new:

    • Focus on getting at least one S-tier DPS (Mysterious / Rino)
    • Pair them with Sakura for sustain
    • Add a tank (Tangero / Katakuri) to survive later stages

    Once you unlock mythics, build toward synergy-driven teams that combine AoE damage, freeze, healing, and cooldown reduction.

  • Anime Raids Beginner Guide – Trello & Wiki Link

    Anime Raids throws you straight into dungeon-style combat where your team of anime-inspired heroes battles through waves of enemies and a boss at the end. Each run gives you rewards like relics, shards, and upgrade materials, which help you strengthen your team for the next challenge.

    You can play manually or let the auto-battle system handle the grind — perfect for farming crystals or leveling up your weaker heroes.

    Currencies Explained

    There are four main currencies you’ll be juggling from the start:

    Currency Description How to Get
    Gems The base currency used for summoning heroes and boosts. Story stages, quests, daily rewards
    Talent Crystals (Blue) Used for talent rolls to improve a unit’s passive bonuses. Quests, leveling up
    Enchant Crystals (Purple) Needed for enchanting and ascending heroes. Dungeon drops, event rewards
    Gold Coins Basic upgrade currency for relics and ascensions. Missions, dungeons, idle rewards

    Tip: Don’t burn your Talent Crystals too early — talent rolls are random, and you’ll want to save for higher-rarity units later on.

    3. Summoning Heroes

    To build your team, head to the Summon menu. You can summon once or use x10 Summon for better odds.

    Summon Details:

    • You can pull Heroes or Shards.
    • If you already own a hero, duplicates turn into Shards automatically.
    • Shards are used to Ascend your heroes — increasing stats and rarity.
    • You can also buy Luck Boosts to slightly improve your pull rates.

    Pro Tip: Always save up for 10x summons — they give better value and save time.

    4. Units & Ascension System

    Your heroes (called Units) are your core team members. Each has its own stats, skills, and rarities.

    How Ascension Works:

    • You need duplicate heroes or shards to ascend.
    • Ascending boosts stats and may unlock extra abilities.
    • You can view your duplicates directly in the Units tab.

    If you get tons of the same low-tier hero, don’t delete them — ascend and use them for early progression.

    5. Relics & Equipment

    Relics are your equipment system. They provide stat bonuses like health, power, and crit chance.

    You can:

    • Equip Relics directly from the “Equip” section.
    • Upgrade Relics using coins and specific materials.
    • Equip Best to automatically assign your strongest relics.

    Higher rarity relics (like Epic or Legendary) can massively change your team’s performance.

    Example:
    A Claws Relic may boost attack power by 10%, while a Crown Relic might increase HP and crit rate.

    6. Talents & Enchanting

    Every hero has Talent slots that can be rolled using Talent Crystals.

    You’ll get random stat bonuses, like:

    • Attack Increase
    • Cooldown Reduction
    • Critical Damage
    • HP Boosts

    Some rolls are extremely rare. For example, “Atomic Talent” grants +100% Attack and -100% Cooldown, which is top-tier.

    Tip: Keep an eye on rarity percentages before rolling — anything under 1% is usually worth keeping.

    7. Team Formation

    You can create up to three team setups — great for switching between farming and boss fights.

    Formation Tips:

    • Frontline = high HP tanks or melee units
    • Backline = ranged or high DPS characters
    • Use Auto Formation if you’re unsure, but manual placement gives better control.

    Team Example:

    • Frontline: Sakura, Luffy
    • Backline: Goku, Sasuke, Gojo

    8. Combat & Raids

    To enter battle, go to Play → Story Mode and select an Act or Chamber.

    Each stage includes:

    • 9 Waves of Enemies
    • A Boss Battle at the end

    You can toggle Auto Battle and Auto Next if you want to speed through raids hands-free.

    Manual Tip: You can manually activate hero skills for burst damage — this is crucial in tougher waves or against bosses like the Shadow Monarch.

    9. Rewards & Progression

    After each raid, you’ll earn:

    • Relics
    • Gold
    • Crystals
    • XP for your account level

    Your Account Level unlocks new features, story acts, and better rewards.

    Keep checking the Quest Tab for missions — they give big crystal and gem payouts early on.

    10. Early Game Tips

    1. Always Summon in Bulk: 10x summons = better odds.
    2. Ascend Duplicates: Never waste extra copies.
    3. Equip Best Relics: The difference in power is massive.
    4. Don’t Auto-Roll Talents Yet: Wait for stronger heroes.
    5. Push Story First: Story gives the best first-week rewards.
    6. Use Auto Battle for Farming: Great for idle grinding.
    7. Save Boosts for Boss Fights: Especially for Acts 3+.

    11. Trello & Wiki Resources

    While the official Trello hasn’t been publicly shared, you can expect it to include:

    • Unit Tier Lists
    • Relic Drop Tables
    • Talent Effects
    • Act Boss Info
    • Update Patch Notes

    Once available, it’ll be linked directly in-game or via the Anime Raids Discord.

    Anime Raids blends idle progression with hands-on hero combat, giving you both grind depth and strategic flexibility. Your first few hours will revolve around summoning, upgrading relics, and experimenting with team synergy — but once your power spikes, you’ll start farming high-tier dungeons for rare relics and epic units.
