How to Get Anime Vanguards Broly: Complete Guide to Unloc...
Step-by-step guide to unlocking Anime Vanguards Broly in Update 8.5. Learn all five quests, resource costs, and farming tips for the new Vanguard unit.
If you’ve been grinding in Anime Vanguards and heard whispers about the new Anime Vanguards Broly unit from Update 8.5, you’re in the right place. This Vanguard Broly is one of the most anticipated additions, but getting him isn’t as simple as pulling a banner. It requires a multi-step questline that will test your patience, resource stash, and dungeon-clearing skills. Whether you’re a veteran player or a newcomer looking for a powerhouse, this guide breaks down exactly how to unlock Anime Vanguards Broly – step by step, with all the resource costs and farming tips you need.
In this guide, we’ll walk through each of the five quest stages, the evolution requirements for the final Vanguard Broly unit, and the best strategies to minimize your grinding time. Let’s dive in.
Understanding the Broly Unlock Questline
The Vanguard Broly unit is not a direct drop or a simple evolution. Instead, you must complete a chain of quests that unlock after obtaining a “remote” item from the new dungeon added in Update 8.5. The questline is designed to test your roster depth and resource management. Below is an overview of the five main steps.
| Step | Quest Objective | Difficulty / Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Obtain Goku Super Saiyan 3, Frieza’s evolution, and Gogeta’s evolution | Goku and Frieza are banner units; Gogeta has a 20% drop chance when using Frieza in the new dungeon. |
| 2 | Complete the dungeon 10 times | Best done after evolving the required units. |
| 3 | Sacrifice 30 units of Mythic rarity or higher | Exclusive units count – makes this step easier if you have spares. |
| 4 | Kill Frieza 10 times (1 per match) | Kill Frieza on wave 3, then restart – fastest method. |
| 5 | Save Broly (complete the dungeon one more time) | Rewards the Broly Pelt evolution item. |
Once you finish all five steps, you’ll have the Broly Pelt needed to evolve Vegeta into the Vanguard Broly. But that’s only half the journey – you still need a massive pile of resources.
Step-by-Step Walkthrough
1. Preparing the Required Evolved Units
The first quest asks you to obtain and evolve three specific characters: Goku Super Saiyan 3, Frieza’s final evolution, and Gogeta’s evolution. Both Goku and Frieza are banner units, so if you don’t have them already, you’ll need to summon. Gogeta is trickier: players report a 20% drop chance from the new dungeon, but only if you have Frieza in your loadout. This bottleneck means you may need to run the dungeon multiple times just for Gogeta.
Tips for this step:
- Prioritize summoning on banners featuring Goku and Frieza.
- Use Frieza in every dungeon run to maximize Gogeta’s drop odds.
- Evolve all three to their final forms before moving on. Evolution materials for these units can be farmed from earlier dungeons.
2. Dungeon Runs and Resource Farming
The second quest – beat the dungeon 10 times – is straightforward but tedious. Many players wish this step came first because you’ll inevitably run the dungeon many times anyway while farming for Gogeta and evolution items. Our advice: complete all the dungeon runs now, and you’ll likely hit other objectives simultaneously (like killing Frieza later).
Dungeon mechanics: The new dungeon features Frieza as a mid-boss on wave 3 and a final boss. Clearing it efficiently requires a strong team with good crowd control and single-target damage. If you’re soloing, consider using a unit with high AoE for the early waves and a boss-killer for the final fight.
3. Sacrificing Mythic+ Units
Step three demands you sacrifice 30 units of Mythic rarity or above. This includes Exclusive units, so if you’ve held onto duplicate exclusives, now is the time to use them. “Sacrifice” likely means feeding them into the quest altar – they’ll be gone forever. Choose wisely. If you lack Mythic units, farm the “Mythic Dungeon” (if available) or trade with other players. Community reports suggest that sacrificing lower-tier Mythics (like Mythic I) still counts, so don’t hoard them unnecessarily.
4. Killing Frieza 10 Times (Efficiently)
This step can be the most annoying because only one Frieza kill counts per match. The simplest method: start the dungeon, rush to wave 3 where Frieza spawns, kill him, then immediately restart. Each kill takes about 3-5 minutes depending on your team. Repeat 10 times. This bypasses the need to complete the entire dungeon each time.
Pro tip: Use a unit with fast travel or teleport to reach Frieza quickly. Avoid wasting time on mobs – just focus on the boss.
5. Saving Broly – The Final Quest
The last quest is a story beat: “Save Broly.” This is essentially another dungeon run, but after completing it, you receive the Broly Pelt – the key evolution item for turning Vegeta into the Vanguard Broly. Make sure you have a level 100 Vegeta (likely the base form) ready to evolve.
Evolution Costs for Vanguard Broly
Once you have the Broly Pelt, you’re not done. Evolving Vegeta into Anime Vanguards Broly requires a heavy resource investment. Based on player experiences, here are the exact costs:
| Resource | Quantity Needed |
|---|---|
| Legendary Essence Stone (each element) | 50 each |
| Mythic Rainbow | 5 |
| Green Essence Stone | 100 |
| Gold (in-game currency) | 50,000 |
If you’ve just evolved Goku, Frieza, and Gogeta earlier in the questline, your resources might be depleted. This is where careful planning pays off. Farm Legendary Essence Stones from the daily Essence Dungeon, Mythic Rainbows from the weekly boss, and Green Essence Stones from the storyline missions.
Should you grind now? Yes. The Vanguard Broly unit is considered top-tier by the community, with high base stats and a devastating ultimate ability. Most players agree that the four-plus hours of grinding are worth it.
Is Vanguard Broly Worth the Grind?
According to the video creator and community feedback, Anime Vanguards Broly is a game-changer. His stats rival the best Vanguard units, and his AoE attacks can clear waves quickly. In endgame content like raid bosses and the new dungeon, Broly significantly reduces clear times. If you’re aiming for leaderboard ranks or just want a reliable carry unit, investing in this Broly is a smart move.
Comparison with other top units:
| Unit | Tier (S/A/B) | Utility |
|---|---|---|
| Vanguard Broly | S | High AoE DPS, boss killer |
| Shadow Shanks | S | Support, debuffs |
| Flame Naruto | A | AoE damage, but squishy |
| Storm Luffy | A | Crowd control, mobility |
As you can see, Broly holds his own. The resource cost is high, but the payoff is a unit that will carry you through future updates.
Farming Tips to Speed Up the Process
To minimize the grind, follow these actionable tips:
- Focus on one quest at a time. Complete the evolved units before running the dungeon 10 times, so you don’t waste runs.
- Use double resource boosters if available. They often apply to essence stones and gold drops.
- Party up with friends for faster dungeon clears – you can share the kill count for Frieza if you’re in the same instance (check recent patch notes).
- Prioritize Mythic unit sacrifice – if you have duplicate exclusives, sacrifice those first. Mythic I units are easier to replace than Mythic IIIs.
- Save your gold. Don’t waste it on unnecessary upgrades. You need 50k for Broly’s evolution.
