Starting a new Roblox game like Anime Vanguards can feel overwhelming — especially with dozens of units, multiple evolution paths, and a long list of game modes. Whether you just spawned into the world or are returning after a break, having a clear anime vanguards progression guide is essential to skip the confusion and start dominating content. In this guide, we’ll walk you through every stage of growth, from completing your first story missions to unlocking the most powerful meta units like Broly, Gojo, Sukuna, and Griffith. This anime vanguards progression guide is built on community reports, player experience, and tested strategies — so you can level up faster and waste less time grinding dead ends.
Phase 1: Beginner V1 (Levels 1–20) – Laying the Foundation
Your first goal is to blast through the early story stages: Namek Sand Village and the Double Dungeon. Even on Nightmare difficulty, these stages are easy with the free unit you get. When you first log in, claim your first-time or returning player rewards — they give you the Aer unit and materials to evolve him over seven days. To reach meta units in under a week, you’ll need to evolve Aer very early.
What to Do in Beginner V1
| Priority | Action | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Set your selection banner to Skeleton King | He’s a critical carry unit for mid-game and some dungeons. |
| 2 | Summon for Skeleton King ASAP | He will carry you through story stages and the Act 4 legend stage. |
| 3 | Clear Namek Sand Village & Double Dungeon on Nightmare | Unlocks achievements, first-time clear rewards, and gems. |
| 4 | Save trait rerolls and gold | These are scarce resources needed for top-tier units later. |
| 5 | Roll for Fortune trait on Speed Wagon and Takarota | These “money units” give extra yen per wave, vital for gold income. |
Player experience tip: Many new players waste trait rerolls on early units. Only roll Fortune on your two money units — every other reroll should be saved for mythics.
Phase 2: Beginner V2 (Levels 20–30) – First Evolution & Resource Farming
Now that you’ve finished the opening stages, it’s time to evolve your mythic unit — ideally Aer (or Skeleton King if you pulled him). Evolution requires:
- Essence stones (green, blue, red)
- Unit-specific items (e.g., chakra)
- Gold
- Takedowns (earned naturally)
Best Early Farming Stage
Head to Sand Village Act 1 Legend stage. It drops blue and red chakra plus green essence stones. With a level 12 Aer (even mediocre stats), you can clear this stage easily. Avoid modifiers except “Champions.”
Use the crafting bench to synthesize items: combine any two Legend stage evolution items to create one of another type. For example, 12 red + 12 blue chakra can become 12 of any other unit’s evolution item.
How to Get Essence Stones & Gold Quickly
| Resource | Easiest Method | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Gold | Summon units and sell them | — |
| Essence Stones | Buy from gold shop OR complete Challenges | Challenges refresh every 30 minutes per hour |
| Unit-specific items | Farm Legend stages + synthesize | — |
Pro tip: While waiting for Challenge refresh, clear more story stages. Every stage completed gives XP and gems that accelerate your account.
Before evolving your mythic, roll all its stats at least once to get A-rank across the board. Why? Because evolving a unit bumps every stat rank up by one (A becomes S). After evolution, grind Demon Slayer Raid stages 1–3 for player XP until you reach level 30 (unlocks 5th unit slot). Only do stage 4 if you have the epic Sakura unit to counter snare.
Phase 3: Beginner V3 (Levels 30–45) – Skeleton King Evolution & Full Story Clear
By now you should have:
- Evolved Aer (or Skeleton King)
- Level 30+
- Skeleton King summoned
Now complete all remaining story stages on Nightmare for gems and trait rerolls. Evolve Skeleton King using the same method as Aer — he becomes indispensable for Act 4 legend stage later. Continue saving trait rerolls, but put one decent trait on your main carry for a small stat boost.
Roll for better stats only when you have 100% stat potential — this guarantees all A ranks. Don’t waste rolls on partial potential.
Phase 4: Mid-game V1 – Unlocking Gojo & Sukuna
This phase is where you start chasing two of the strongest units in the game: Gojo and Sukuna. By now you should have Skeleton King and Aer evolved.
Summoning Priority
| Unit | How to Get | Evolution Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Itadori (evolves to Sukuna) | Summon from banner | Kill Sukuna 10 times in Boss Rush using Itadori; collect 20 Sukuna Fingers |
| Gojo | Summon from banner | Collect 2 Gojo’s Eyes (10 Sukuna Fingers each) |
If the Sukuna boss event isn’t in rotation, use a Boss Rift (bought in Legacy Shop) to fight him. Alternatively, farm Shibuya Infinite mode — each Sukuna kill (rare spawn) gives one finger.
Why get them early? Both have familiars that require 10 days of daily usage before unlocking. Without their familiars, Gojo and Sukuna are mediocre. The sooner you evolve them, the sooner you can start the daily quest (25 stages per day = 1 token). After 10 tokens you get the familiar.
Community report: Some players skip familiars and regret it — the buffs are game-changing for late-game content.
Phase 5: Mid-game V2 – Griffith & World Lines
World Lines Mode
Complete 50 stages with dynamic weather effects that boost or debuff elements. The final reward is a limited-time unit (useful for its event). Grind this whenever a new rotation starts.
Getting Griffith
Griffith drops from Act 4 Legend Stage at a 5% rate. Skeleton King deals double damage here, which is why we prioritized him. Bring your best team and farm until he drops. Evolution is simple: obtain the King’s Egg and let his summons hit enemies 200 times (they die automatically).
While farming, also collect the Silly Fairy familiar — it reduces upgrade costs for Speed Wagon (huge for gold savings).
| Unit | How to Obtain | Evolution Method | Recommended For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Griffith | Act 4 Legend (5%) | 200 summon deaths from King’s Egg | Mid-game carry + utility |
| Guts (optional) | Summon “Struggler” banner | Quest item from summon | Late-game damage dealer |
Guts is optional but highly recommended — he becomes a meta DPS unit after evolution.
Phase 6: Endgame – Broly (Vanguard Rarity) & Final Team
The ultimate goal: Vanguard Rarity Broly. To get him, you need the Frozen Volcano Dungeon.
Dungeon Mechanics
- Clear waves; Golden Frieza spawns every 3 waves.
- Defeat him to get a Dragon Ball.
- Collect 7 Dragon Balls, then press the victory button.
Required Units for Broly
| Unit | How to Obtain | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Vegeta | Summon | Base for Broly evolution (must be evolved once) |
| Frieza | Summon | Needed for quest; evolve using dungeon shop items |
| Goku (SS3) | Summon | Needed for quest |
| Gogeta | Frozen Volcano (20% chance) using only Frieza | Required for quest |
Strategy: Use Skeleton King or Guts to clear Frozen Volcano until you get Frieza evolved. The “Tyrant Arrives” card using Skeleton King (or evolved Frieza) is the fastest clear method. Place the unit where Frieza spawns, then move back to enemy path.
Broly’s remote quest item drops at 10% per clear. Once you get it, follow the steps — you’ll evolve Vegeta into Broly (second evolution).
Final Meta Team
After obtaining Broly, finish the Gojo & Sukuna familiar quests (10 days each). Equip their familiars. Your endgame lineup should be:
- Broly (main DPS)
- Gojo (with familiar)
- Sukuna (with familiar)
- Griffith (support/utility)
- Guts (optional, but recommended)

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this anime vanguards progression guide still valid after the latest updates?
A: Yes! The core loop — evolving mythics, farming Legend stages, and chasing Broly/Gojo/Sukuna — remains unchanged. Check for new events, but the roadmap holds.
Q: How long does it take to reach Broly following this guide?
A: Based on community reports, a dedicated player can reach endgame in 2–3 weeks if they play 2–3 hours daily. The 10-day familiar quest for Gojo/Sukuna is the main bottleneck.
Q: What if I can’t pull Skeleton King early?
A: Use Aer as your main carry until you get Skeleton King. He’s less effective in Act 4 but still clears early content fine. You can substitute with any other mythic with AoE damage.
Q: Do I need to spend Robux to follow this anime vanguards progression guide?
A: Not at all. Everything here is achievable as a free-to-play player. Patience and smart resource management are key.
