GuideProgressionBeginnerStrategy

Just started Arise Ragnarok? This guide cuts through the noise and gives you the exact strategy to progress faster than 90% of players. No fluff—just actionable steps.

Pick the Right Class (Don’t Waste Time)

Your class choice determines your early game speed. There are five classes, but only two matter for fast progression:

ClassStrengthWeakness
MageAoE damage, fastest quest clearsSlower boss kills
AssassinBurst damage, fast boss killsWeaker mob farming
WarriorBalancedJack of all trades
TankSurvivabilitySlow damage
HealerSupportNeeds party

Tip: Redeem your codes BEFORE committing to a class. Codes give resources for re-rolls. Every minute on the wrong class is wasted progression.

Verdict:

  • Mage = Most consistent leveling (AoE farming)
  • Assassin = Fastest boss kills and burst damage

Quest Farming Strategy

Quests are your primary EXP source. Here’s how to maximize efficiency:

NPC with quest marker on the map

Quest Types (by difficulty):

  • 🔵 Blue — Easy, low rewards
  • 🟡 Yellow — Medium difficulty
  • 🔴 Red — Hard, best rewards

The Golden Rule: Pick the highest difficulty you can clear QUICKLY. A 2-minute Yellow quest beats a 10-minute Red quest for EXP/hour.

The Arise Mechanic (Free Power)

This is the biggest early game power boost most players ignore:

Pressing E to Arise a defeated enemy

  1. Defeat enemies during quests
  2. Press E when the Arise prompt appears
  3. Enemy becomes a Shadow that fights for you

Always Arise enemies. More shadows = more damage = faster clears. It’s free progression.

Dungeon Farming (Big EXP + Gear)

Dungeons spawn every 30 minutes and despawn after 15 minutes. Missing one means waiting for the next cycle.

Dungeon Types:

  • Subway
  • Goblin
  • Castle
  • Infernal
  • Insect

Dungeon portal entrance

Inside Dungeons: Mine Everything

Mana Crystals spawn inside dungeons. MINE THEM.

Mining Mana Crystals in dungeon

Crystals → Exchange for Coins → Buy gear upgrades

This is one of the best coin farming methods in the game.

Coin Generation Methods

Coins control everything: gear, chests, upgrades. Here’s how to farm them efficiently:

Stone EssenceKill enemies → Press R to destroy → ExchangeConsistent
Mana CrystalsMine in dungeons → ExchangeBest method
Sell GearUnwanted drops from dungeonsPassive income

Guild Store (Check Every 30 Minutes)

The Guild Store resets every 30 minutes. This is where most players fall behind.

Guild Store interface with gear options

What to buy:

  • Class-specific armor and weapons
  • Chests for random rolls
  • Upgrade materials

Pro Tip: Set a timer. Players who check the store every reset find massive upgrades sitting there while others stay weak.

Upgrade System: Merge Duplicates

Got duplicate weapons, armor, or shadows? Merge them.

Merging duplicate items in Guild Hall

Merging creates higher-rank gear with better stats. Never discard duplicates—they’re your upgrade path.

The Level 1,000 Goal: Rank Up

Your ultimate early game goal: reach Level 1,000 and Rank Up.

What Rank Up unlocks:

  • Higher-tier dungeons
  • Better shadow drops
  • Stronger gear

Yes, it resets your level. No, it’s not a loss—it’s the gateway to endgame content.
