The latest Rogue Piece update has introduced two highly anticipated additions: the formidable Garou style and the powerful Metal Bat weapon. Both offer unique moves and significant power spikes, but obtaining them requires completing specific, challenging questlines.
This guide will walk you through the exact steps to unlock both Garou and Metal Bat as efficiently as possible.
How to Get the Garou Style
The path to unlocking Garou is a test of endurance and skill, mirroring the character’s own journey. Follow these steps precisely.
Step 1: Find the Master and Begin Training
First, you must travel to Glacier Island. Here, you will find the Master NPC who will give you the questline. His first task is a test of your fundamentals.
Objective: Land 2,500 punches using the Suiru style.
Tip: You can complete this quickly by finding a safe spot and continuously attacking NPCs or training dummies.
Step 2: The Celestial Challenge
This is the most difficult part of the quest and will test your PvP capabilities.
Objective: Defeat 25 players who have a Celestial rank or higher.
Tip: This requires consistent performance in Player vs. Player combat. Focus on improving your skills and consider teaming up with friends to gain an advantage in team fights.
Step 3: Obtain the Book of Mastery
With the previous challenges complete, you need a key item to finalize your transformation.
Objective: Acquire the Book of Mastery.
How to Get It: This item is a rare drop from the Silver Fang boss located in Rogue Town. You may need to defeat him multiple times before the item drops.
Step 4: Unlock Garou
Once you have the Book of Mastery, use it on your Suiru style. This will permanently unlock the Garou style for your character.
Garou Style Overview
The Garou style is a powerful upgrade, providing:
A transformative mode that significantly increases your damage output.
Access to a potent counter move.
Great versatility for both PvE (boss fighting) and PvP scenarios.
How to Get the Metal Bat Weapon
The quest for Metal Bat is a pure test of resilience and power. The strategy below will help you complete it efficiently.
Step 1: Start the Quest
Head to Starter Island and locate the specific NPC that offers the Metal Bat questline.
Step 2: The Damage Grind
The NPC will give you two monumental tasks:
Receive 5 million damage.
Deal 10 million damage.
Efficient Completion Strategy
This grind can be done AFK with the right setup:
Stat Allocation: Reset your stats and put all your points into Special and Sword.
Location: Go to Glacier Island and find the training dummies.
AFK Method: Stand near the dummies and use a long-lasting Sword or Special move. Your high Special stat will allow you to deal massive damage to the dummies over time, quickly racking up the 10 million damage dealt. Simultaneously, the environment or weak NPCs will slowly chip away at your health, contributing to the 5 million damage received.
Metal Bat Overview
After turning in the quest, you will receive the Metal Bat weapon and its corresponding outfit. The weapon features:
Four unique moves, including a powerful counter.
Important Note: The counter move can affect your teammates, so be cautious when using it in group battles to avoid friendly fire.
Pro Tips and Synergy
Boss Melting Combo: Combining the high-damage output of Garou’s mode with the powerful moves of Metal Bat creates a devastating build for taking down raid bosses quickly.
Strategic Book of Mastery: The Book of Mastery is a valuable item. While it’s used for Garou now, consider if you want to save it for future styles, as it may be a universal unlock item for other powerful transformations.
