GHOUL://RE Factions (Humans vs. Ghouls)

No matter which you get, you'll have to go out and hunt!

Thinking of becoming a Ghoul or a CCG Investigator inside Roblox GHOUL://RE? Here’s how each faction works, what you need to know, and how you can survive for more than a few seconds.

All factions in GHOUL://RE

There are two factions in GHOUL://RE: Humans (CCG) and Ghouls. When you first start your game, you’ll be randomly assigned to one of the two factions. You can pay some Robux to change your faction, or you can wait for Delirum (the perma-death mode which happens every hour), die during the event, and then, hopefully, get reborn as the other faction.

You’ll have different things to do depending on which faction you play as, but if there’s one thing that applies to both of them, it’s to kill everything in site. Yup, attack NPC, other players of the opposite faction, and even other players of the same faction as you. It doesn’t matter, and there aren’t really any penalties (yet!), so do what every other player does and just attack everything you can. You will die, other players will die by your hand, and the process repeats.

The only reason why you’d want to avoid killing other players would be if you formed a crew.

How to play as a CCG Investigator (Human)

You’ll know you’ve spawned as a Human if nothing special happens when you gain control of your character. Quickly, make your way to the CCG building (refer to our guide on All locations in GHOUL://RE Roblox if you can’t find it), talk to the receptionist inside and become an official Investigator.

You may also head upstairs and get your first quest (where you simply stalk a ghoul target) to get some money. As soon as you have 100 yen, buy one of the starting weapons. You have a choice between a Katana, Twin daggers, and a Spear. As of this writing, the Twin Daggers are the best, followed by the Spear and then the Katana.

From then on, accept bounties to hunt Ghouls, hunt other players and take part in events. Essentially, go out and kill. Occasionally, come back to the CCG building to see if you’ve increased your rank.

One thing you should definitely keep an eye on is looting all items you come across. Right now, the game has a horrible inventory system, but you can still gatherĀ materials like Gold, Metal, Blueprints,Ā and others. Use them to craft weapons inside the CCG building upstairs.

When you reach Investigator Rank one, you can accept a quest to get your Quinque. Definitely try doing this one with a crew because failing it means paying the 1,500 Yen fee again.

That’s all there is to it: become an investigator, choose a weapon, kill everything you can until you rank up, and craft better weapons in the meantime.

How to play as a Ghoul

You’ll know you’ve spawned as a Ghoul if you see a bunch of scary words appear on your screen when you first spawn.

Playing as a Ghouls in GHOUL://RE is, in our opinion, a lot easier and more straightforward. When you spawn, you can essentially start killing anything right away, but you’ll only have your fists. Fortunately, you can easily remedy this by attacking Human NPCs.

Visit Helter Skelter and grab a quest from the Bountry Board, preferably one where you get to kill a set amount of human NPCs. This will help you rank up faster, and before you know it, you’ll be ranked C and willĀ grow your very own Kagune.

After getting your Kagune, you’ll become a force to be reckoned with. Other players can still kill you, but you’ll hit harder, you’ll get more skills, and will look cooler. While there are a couple of Kagune currently in the game, it’s mostly random what type you get.

If you want to RP, like in the Anime, you can visit the Art Studio and buy a mask to hide your identity. Quite honestly, after days of playing GHOUL://RE, we’ve only ever seen one player wear a mask, so this is up to you.

That’s all there is to it; start killing weak Human NPCs, grow your Kagune, and start killing everything as you get even more powerful. No need to work for the CCG, or craft weapons, just devour your enemies.
