If you’re wondering how to get Dave and Mortis gloves in Slap Battles, the new Evil Barzil update has you covered with a fresh raid-style challenge. This update introduces a new Barzil portal, two exclusive gloves, and a multi-phase boss fight that tests movement, teamwork, and timing.
Both the Dave (bomb) glove and Mortis glove are only obtainable by completing the Barzil raid, available in easy and hard modes. Here’s a complete walkthrough of how to start the event, clear the boss fight, and claim your rewards.
How to Access the Evil Barzil Raid
To start the raid, you can enter through the Slapple area or by using an alternative access method. Once inside, follow the golden beam in the sky to locate a key. Use this key to unlock the gate through the gatekeeper NPC, then complete the obby section to reach the elevator.
In the elevator area, you’ll need to:
Find a step ladder to access the hatch above the elevator
Locate a red screwdriver to repair the hatch
Collect a hammer, sledgehammer, and grappler for later parkour challenges
The grappler is essential for crossing rings and tall structures with precision control, so make sure every squad member is comfortable using it.
Boss Fight Phases
The Evil Barzil boss fight is split into three distinct phases, each with unique mechanics.
Phase 1 – Avoid the giant swinging hand attacks, then counter by slapping the fingertips when they’re within range.
Phase 2 – Hit nails or orbs while avoiding shockwaves. Be ready to escape any wraps that trap you mid-fight.
Phase 3 – Gather four bombs, plant them in the correct slots, and finish the fight. Successfully completing this phase rewards you with the Dave glove.
Dave Glove Abilities
The Dave glove focuses on burst damage and area control. It allows you to throw bombs and manually detonate them, making it effective for both offense and zone denial in PvP matches.
How to Get the Mortis Glove
After unlocking Dave, you can work toward obtaining the Mortis glove. Mortis offers a more complex playstyle with multiple abilities:
Slap effect that summons a boulder
E ability for rapid movement or teleportation
R ability to drop nails or spikes, followed by an AoE hammer strike
Transformation ability with specific immunity interactions
These abilities make Mortis a versatile choice for both mobility and crowd control.
Hard Mode Requirements and Strategy
Hard mode becomes available once every member of your squad has completed the raid on easy mode. This version uses crystal hearts with no regeneration and features tighter timing windows for all mechanics.
Tips for hard mode success:
Maintain movement control to avoid constant chip damage
Assign specific roles in your squad for handling bombs and mechanics
Communicate during bomb planting to avoid mistakes
Keep health management a priority, as small hits quickly add up
Additional Rewards and Codes
The update also introduces the Evil Barzil crate, which contains themed cosmetic effects purchasable with null shards. You can redeem an in-game code for 250 null shards by typing “mortlse” (replace the I with an L) in the chat.
Final Thoughts
The Slap Battles Evil Barzil update delivers one of the most challenging and rewarding events yet, with multi-stage progression leading to two unique gloves. Whether you prefer the explosive power of Dave or the versatile control of Mortis, completing the raid is a must for dedicated players. With the hard mode adding an extra layer of difficulty, this update is a real test of skill, coordination, and persistence.
