How to get Renguku

The new Rengoku Secret Unit in Anime Vanguards can only be obtained by completing the first Raid, more specifically Spider Forest Act 4. In order to unlock the new Raids in Anime Vanguards you must first complete every Act from the Story Mode across all three maps.

With Raids unlocked, you’ll need to be Acts 1-3 of the Spider Forest Raid in order to unlock Act 4. Each time you complete the Spider Forest Act 4 Raid map you will have a 1% chance of acquiring the new Renguko Secret Unit.

However, with the Slayer’s Corp update, there’s a way to increase your chances of getting Renguko even further. As you complete the Raids you will get a new type of currency called Red Web. You can turn in 400 of these Red Webs at the Raid Shop vendor for a Fortune Catalyst (Slayer) item, that increases the drop chance of all Secret units, including Renguko. If you’re impatient, you can also purchase this item for $199 Robux.

How to evolve into Renguku (Purgatory)

Even though Renguko is powerful on his own, his evolved Purgatory form is even stronger. In his Renguku (Purgatory) Evolved form, the unit gains a secondary ability called Unwavering Focus. This ability increases damage by 5% for each consecutive attack on the same enemy, stacking up to four times, for a maximum of 20%.

You can evolve Renguku into Renguku (Purgatory) by acquiring the following materials and visiting the Evolve NPC:

  • 1x Slayer’s Cape (Purchased for 600 Red Webs at the Raid Shop)
  • 40x Green Essence Stone
  • 14x Yellow Essence Stone
  • 14x Red Essence Stone
  • 13x Pink Essence Stone
  • 4x Rainbow Essence Stone
  • 15,000 Gold
