Anime Rangers X Dragon Ball Z update new units are here, and this guide shows exactly how to obtain every addition, from banner pulls and Ranger Stage drops to the Dragon Ritual, Trial quests, and the Boss Event. Use it to plan your route, secure meta units, and avoid wasting materials.
What is the Anime Rangers X Dragon Ball Z Update?
This crossover patch adds multiple recruit paths that reshape progression and the meta. You will roll Trunks and Baby Vegeta on the banner, fight a multi-difficulty Boss Event for Primal Fusion, clear new Ranger Stages for Gohan (Base) and Super 17, perform a Dragon Ritual to summon Omega Shenron, and finish a Trial Quest line to earn Perfect Cell plus the Super Saiyan 2 Gohan evolution item.
Two key systems define the loop. First, the Dragon Ritual requires collecting the 7-Star Dragon Balls found across modes, including Ranger Stages. Second, the Boss Event rotates daily resistance modifiers, pushing you to adapt setups. Normal Mode has 1 billion boss HP; Nightmare Mode jumps to 8 billion and is the only source of shiny Primal Fusion.
From a meta standpoint, Super Saiyan 2 Gohan is the best unit right now, with Omega Shenron in Top 5 DPS, while Primal Fusion and Perfect Cell compete in the Top 10. Super 17, Trunks, and Baby Vegeta remain useful, but not mandatory after recent balance shifts.
How to Get All New Units
Use the checklist below to complete the Dragon Ball Z roster efficiently.
Trunks — Banner pull. Has a shiny version. Best Trait: Sovereign or Duplicator after his nerf.
Baby Vegeta — Banner pull. Has a shiny version. Best Trait: Sovereign.
Primal Fusion — Boss Event reward. Normal Mode grants the base unit; Nightmare Mode is required for the shiny. Limited-time and tradable. Best Trait: Duplicator.
Gohan (Base) — Drops from the new Ranger Stage. You will also need the Hourglass Item from a portal opened via Ranger Stages to evolve later.
Super 17 — Drops from the new Ranger Stage. Balanced DPS; Best Trait: Sovereign.
Omega Shenron — Dragon Ritual by gathering all 7-Star Dragon Balls. Top 5 DPS meta. Best Trait: Sovereign for damage or Duplicator for flexible support.
Perfect Cell — Reward from the Trial Quest line. Top 10 DPS and now balanced, outperforming Goetta. Best Trait: Sovereign.
Super Saiyan 2 Gohan Evo Item — From the Trial Quest line. Use it to evolve Gohan to SSJ2, currently the top DPS in the game. Best Trait: Sovereign.
Dragon Ritual explained
Collect the 7-Star Dragon Balls from various modes, notably Ranger Stages, then perform the Dragon Ritual to claim Omega Shenron. This takes time, so begin the grind early to avoid bottlenecks near endgame.
Boss Event and Nightmare mode
The boss has 1B HP on Normal and 8B HP on Nightmare. Check daily resistance modifiers before queueing, adjust elements and team roles, and target Nightmare if you want the shiny Primal Fusion. Because modifiers shift, pre-build a couple of variants so you can swap quickly.
Farming path and priorities
Focus Ranger Stages first. They drop Gohan (Base), Super 17, open portals for the Hourglass, and contribute to Dragon Ball progress. Run Trial Quests next for Perfect Cell and the SSJ2 evolution item. Roll banners opportunistically for Trunks and Baby Vegeta.
Final Thoughts
To clear the Anime Rangers X Dragon Ball Z update new units checklist, farm Ranger Stages for Gohan, Super 17, portals, and Dragon Balls, complete Trials for Perfect Cell and the SSJ2 item, run the Dragon Ritual for Omega Shenron, beat the Boss Event for Primal Fusion, and banner-pull Trunks and Baby Vegeta. Prioritize Super Saiyan 2 Gohan as your core DPS, secure Omega Shenron early, and respect daily Boss resistances. For traits, lean Sovereign on main DPS and use Duplicator where multi-hit or support utility shines.
