Arise Ragnarok Beginner's Guide (2026)

I put together this Arise Ragnarok guide after 30+ hours in the first 4 days since the Christmas release. The game dropped and I’ve been no-lifing it since. Here’s everything from class selection to endgame dungeons.

The game is basically Arise Crossover 2.0. Same developers, same Solo Leveling inspiration, but with proper classes, races, and a completely revamped combat system. If you played the original, forget half of what you learned. This is a different beast.

What is Arise Ragnarok?

Arise Ragnarok is an anime-inspired action RPG on Roblox. You pick a class, choose a race, defeat enemies, and “arise” them as shadows that fight alongside you. The game combines traditional RPG progression with the shadow army mechanic from Solo Leveling.

Key features:

  • 5 Classes with unique playstyles
  • Races that give passive bonuses
  • Shadow System to build your army
  • Dungeons with rare drops
  • PvP Battles to test your build
  • Mining System for gear upgrades
  • Trading System for the economy
  • Bi-weekly Updates every 15 days

The game has 6.4M+ visits and 32K favorites in just 4 days. It’s growing fast.

Choosing Your Class

You pick a class at the start. Class rerolls are currently free during beta, so experiment until you find what clicks.

Classes Overview

Best Class for Beginners

Mage is the easiest class to start with. You stay at range, spam AoE abilities, and clear mobs fast. Low risk, high reward.

Assassin is the best class overall but requires more skill. You need to manage cooldowns and position correctly. If you’re confident in your mechanics, start here.

Class Stat Builds

Each class has an optimal stat distribution:

Assassin:

  • Strength > Mana > Vitality > Agility
  • Focus on burst damage, enough mana for combos

Mage:

  • Intelligence > Mana > Vitality > Agility
  • Max Intelligence for spell damage, Mana for sustain

Tank:

  • Vitality > Strength > Mana > Agility
  • Pure survivability, some damage for threat

Warrior:

  • Strength > Vitality > Mana > Agility
  • Balanced damage and tankiness

Healer:

  • Intelligence > Mana > Vitality > Agility
  • Healing scales with Intelligence

Pro Tip: Agility Investment

Regardless of class, invest in Agility early. At 200+ Agility, you unlock spammable dashes. This changes everything. You can dodge attacks, reposition instantly, and move around the map faster.

Understanding Races

Races give passive bonuses. You can reroll races with codes or in-game currency.

RaceBonusBest For

ElfIntelligence boostMage/Healer
DwarfMining efficiencyResource farming
OrcStrength boostAssassin/Warrior
DemonDamage boostAll DPS classes

Race bonuses are smaller than class differences. Pick what fits your playstyle, but don’t stress about it.

The Shadow System

This is where Arise Ragnarok shines. When you defeat an enemy, you can “arise” them as a shadow that fights for you.

How to Arise Shadows

  1. Defeat an enemy
  2. Click on the corpse 3 times
  3. The shadow joins your army

Not every enemy can be arisen. Bosses and special enemies have higher arise chances. Regular mobs have lower chances but are more common.

Shadow Ranks

Shadows have ranks that determine their power:

RankPower Level
EWeakest
DLow
CMedium
BGood
AGreat
SExcellent
SSTop tier

Higher rank = higher damage ceiling. An S-rank shadow will always outperform a C-rank at max level.

Upgrading Shadows

To upgrade a shadow:

  1. Collect copies of each rank (E through S)
  2. Go to the Shadow Upgrader
  3. Combine all copies
  4. Pay the upgrade cost
  5. Receive your upgraded shadow

This is why you want multiple copies of good shadows.

Progression Path

First Hour

  1. Pick your class (Mage or Assassin recommended)
  2. Complete the tutorial quests
  3. Kill enemies around spawn
  4. Arise your first shadows
  5. Redeem all codes for free rerolls

First Day

  1. Complete all starter quests (white icons)
  2. Build a team of 4+ shadows
  3. Find and kill the first boss
  4. Arise the boss shadow

First Week

Quest System

Quests are your main source of XP and rewards.

Quest Types

ColorDifficultyRewards
WhiteEasyLow XP, starter gear
YellowMediumGood XP, shadow drops
RedHardBest XP, rare gear

Progression Tips

  • Don’t rush into yellow quests before level 20-25
  • Complete all white quests in an area before moving on
  • Red quests unlock around level 50+
  • Mob farming + nearby quests is the most efficient leveling method

Dungeons

Dungeons are portals that spawn around the map. They contain harder enemies and better rewards.

How Dungeons Work

  1. Gates spawn every 30 minutes
  2. Use gems to enter (cost varies by rank)
  3. Clear all enemies inside
  4. Boss at the end drops rare shadows
  5. Higher rank = better rewards

Dungeon Ranks

RankDifficultyRecommended Level
E-DEasy1-20
C-BMedium20-40
A-SHard40-60
SSVery Hard60+

Dungeon Tips

  • Bring a full shadow team
  • DPS classes clear faster
  • Tanks help in group dungeons
  • Save gems for higher rank dungeons
  • Boss shadows are worth the grind

Combat Tips

Stun Locking

The meta revolves around stun locking enemies. Chain your abilities to keep enemies locked in place while your shadows deal damage.

Assassin Stun Lock:

  1. Dash in
  2. Use stun ability
  3. Burst combo
  4. Dash out before stun ends
  5. Repeat

Mage Stun Lock:

  1. AoE slow
  2. Burst spells
  3. Kite while on cooldown
  4. Repeat

Mana Management

Mana is your limiting factor. Don’t spam abilities mindlessly.

  • Use basic attacks between abilities
  • Invest in Mana stat for longer fights
  • Bring mana potions for dungeons
  • Let shadows do damage while you regenerate

Positioning

  • Assassins: Stay behind enemies for bonus damage
  • Mages: Keep distance, use terrain
  • Tanks: Stay in front, absorb hits
  • Warriors: Flank and engage
  • Healers: Stay back, watch team health

Mining System

Mining lets you gather resources for gear upgrades.

How to Mine

  1. Find mining nodes around the map
  2. Equip a pickaxe
  3. Click on the node
  4. Collect resources

Mining Tips

  • Dwarf race mines faster
  • Better pickaxes = faster mining
  • Resources respawn over time
  • Sell excess resources for coins

Trading System

You can trade items with other players.

What to Trade

  • Rare shadows
  • Gear drops
  • Resources
  • Cosmetics

Trading Tips

  • Check market prices before trading
  • Don’t get scammed on rare items
  • Build relationships with regular traders
  • Save rare drops for good offers

Common Mistakes

  1. Ignoring Agility - Get to 200 for dashes
  2. Rushing content - Farm each area properly
  3. Bad stat distribution - Follow the builds above
  4. Skipping dungeons - Best rewards come from dungeons
  5. Destroying good shadows - Keep copies for upgrades
  6. Not using codes - Free rerolls and resets available

Advanced Tips

Elemental Weaknesses

Enemies have elemental weaknesses:

  • Holy damage vs Undead enemies
  • Shadow damage vs Holy enemies
  • Fire damage vs Ice enemies

Match your shadows and weapons to enemy weaknesses for bonus damage.

Team Composition

Build a balanced shadow team:

  • 2 DPS shadows for damage
  • 1 Tank shadow for aggro
  • 2 Utility shadows for buffs/debuffs
  • 1 Flex slot for situational picks

AFK Farming

The game rewards AFK time:

  • Shadows continue fighting
  • Resources accumulate
  • Check back periodically to collect
