Anime Vanguards Beginner Guide — First Hours Path
New to Anime Vanguards on Roblox? This guide gets you productive in the first few sessions without wasting Gems or Trait Rerolls.
1. Claim codes first
Before long grinds, redeem every active code. Free Trait Rerolls and currencies stack up quickly around updates.
Some codes need Level 30 — push Story until you unlock them, then redeem again.
2. Learn the loop
- Summon units (gacha)
- Place them along the enemy path (tower defense)
- Upgrade during the match when you have economy
- Evolve strong units with materials outside the match
- Reroll traits on units you will keep
You lose if enemies reach your base often enough. Positioning and upgrade timing matter as much as rarity.
3. Early resource rules
- Don’t blow all Gems on day-one banners without checking the tier list.
- Do invest materials into one main DPS + one support/clear first.
- Trait Rerolls are premium — save them for units with good base kits.
- Clear Story / easier modes for levels, index progress, and materials before hard events.
4. First team goals
Aim for a simple four-role core:
- Reliable DPS (whatever best rarity you own)
- AoE or multi-hit clear for dense waves
- Slow / utility if available
- Flex slot for bossing or economy
A mid-rarity team with good placement often beats a random high-rarity pile with no synergy.
5. Evolution & progression
- Check each unit’s evolution requirements before farming the wrong map.
- Finish unit index / bounty style objectives when rewards are efficient.
- Rejoin fresh servers if UI or codes act stuck after updates.
6. Events & FOMO
Limited events (boss rush, dungeon, battle pass style rewards) are where veterans farm. As a beginner:
- Finish main progression enough to survive the event entry stage
- Use free codes tied to the event
- Don’t panic-spend if the new unit is not a clear upgrade for your account
