Ultimate Arise Crossover Beginner’s Guide (Beta)

Arise Crossover might seem simple at first glance: collect Shadow units, attack defenseless enemies, and build a stronger team. But even experienced players can get lost navigating progression, leveling, unit selection, and more. This guide is for those feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Recommended Videos How Shadows work in Arise Crossover

Each island in Arise Crossover offers recruitable Shadows, including a powerful dungeon Shadow. Currently, Soondoo (early game) is the weakest, while Mifalcon (final Brum Island) is the strongest. However, unit rank is more crucial than type. A Rank A Soondoo surpasses a Rank D Mifalcon. Higher-ranked units level up further; a Rank D maxes at Level 75, while an SS unit reaches Level 200. The ideal team? Four Level 200 Mifalcons (SS rank). Getting there is the adventure!

Arise Crossover Dungeon Guide

Dungeon portals appear every 30 minutes, lasting 15 minutes. Even joining a dungeon seconds before closure allows full completion. Portals spawn randomly across islands with varying difficulty. Begin with a Rank D team on Leveling Island for a good starting group and potentially a rare Shadow. Dungeons are the primary source of rare and higher-ranked (above C) units.

When a portal spawns, join! Even with a weak team, other players often assist lower-level players, allowing you to progress. Recruiting Shadows from dungeons is key to advancement. We progressed to the endgame with help from others, and later assisted others in a similar manner. Embrace this collaborative spirit.

Arise Crossover Weapons

During this Beta, weapons are largely ineffective. While helpful early on, their impact diminishes significantly. The Iron Kando Blade (the strongest common weapon) costs 60m for 516.1K damage, insignificant compared to unit damage (200-400 million). Save your resources unless you have excess currency.

How to get a mount in Arise Crossover

Wild mounts spawn every 15 minutes, claimable by only one player per server. A server-wide message announces spawns, but not always disappearances or claims. Mounts spawn in six locations (refer to the developer's map). You can only claim a mount once, and capture attempts can fail. Flying mounts are rarest (around 10% spawn rate), ground mounts are common, and water mounts are available from the Boat Shop NPC.

To get a mount, watch for the server message and visit all six locations. While not essential for progression, a flying mount greatly simplifies travel. We’re still hunting for that elusive flying mount!
