Arise Crossover Dungeons are special portals that let you fight tough enemies for amazing rewards like powerful Shadows, cool weapons, or extra tickets. They open every 30 minutes and stay for 15 minutes, so timing is key. If you miss one, you have to wait for the next spawn. Below is a simple guide to help you find each dungeon’s location and get the most out of them.
When do Dungeons Appear in Arise Crossover?
How Dungeons Work in Arise Crossover?
- Spawn Schedule
- Every 30 minutes (e.g. 1:00, 1:30, 2:00…).
- They vanish after 15 minutes, so be quick!
- Dungeon Ranks
- Ranks go from E to S (and sometimes SS in rare Double Dungeons).
- Higher rank dungeons drop better Shadows and items.
- Discord & Community
- The Arise Crossover Discord often posts exact spawn spots.
- A chat channel called “game-dungeons” or similar will list each location as it appears.
- Double Dungeons
- Very rare events where you clear one dungeon, then a second one opens right after.
- Bosses can be super strong, but the rewards are worth it!
Dungeons Locations in Arise Crossover
Leveling City (Solo Leveling)
- Near Spawn Point: Sometimes in front of a building with caution tape.
- Side Streets: Look behind small buildings or near a basketball court.
- Building Entrances: A few spawns pop up next to gray buildings or around corners.
Grass Village (Naruto)
- Castle Gate: Check around the big entrance or on top of towers (you may need a mount or careful jumps).
- Near Bosses: Some portals show up close to boss enemies like Sakura.
- Open Fields: A few spawn points lie on open ground, so keep your eyes peeled.
Faceheal Town (Bleach Island)
- Rooftops and Alleyways: Look high and low—some portals hide on building roofs.
- Edge of the Map: Check corners if you don’t see any near the main road.
- Red Gates: This island can spawn special red dungeons with tougher foes.
Brum Island (One Piece)
- Dock Areas: Sometimes near the water where boats spawn.
- Top of Hills: Portal could appear on cliffs or high ground.
- Large Buildings: Check near big structures or inside walled-in spots.
Dungeons Guide in Arise Crossover
Red Gate (Red Dungeon)
- 3× Harder:
- Enemies have ~3× the HP/damage of a normal dungeon.
- Expect to need a strong team or well-leveled Shadows.
- One Rank Higher Chance:
- A red gate still has a base rank (e.g., B, A, or S), but you have an increased chance for dropping a Shadow one rank higher.
- Example: If it’s an S-rank red gate, you’re more likely to get an SS unit from it.
Double Dungeon (DD)
- Rare Occurrence:
- After you defeat the dungeon boss, the timer resets or increases.
- NPCs respawn, and you must clear the dungeon backwards to reach a second boss room.
- Second Boss: Monarch (Sung Jinwoo)
- Often referred to in the community as “the Shadow Monarch” or “Sun Jin Wu.”
- If you can defeat him—and if you’re lucky—you might arise a G-rank variant, the strongest Shadow in the game.
- Rank-Up Runes Work Here:
- If it’s an A-rank Double Dungeon, you can use a Rank-Up Rune to make it S-rank.
- That means potential SS or G-rank Monarch drops if you’re extremely lucky.
Spawn Mechanics
- Every 30 minutes: A new dungeon spawns on all servers simultaneously.
- Lasts 15 minutes: You must enter before the portal vanishes. Once inside, you have time to clear it even if the portal outside disappears.
- Global and Same Rank: All servers get the same dungeon rank (E, D, C, B, A, or S) and location at once.
How to Locate Them
- Check In-Game Alerts: Watch chat for messages like “A dungeon gate has appeared.”
- Use Discord: The official “game-dungeons” channel often posts each dungeon’s rank and location—helpful if you don’t want to hunt across the map.
- Island Variations: Each island has multiple spawn points for gates. For example, Grass Village (Naruto-themed) might have 3–4 possible spawn spots.
How to Get SS or G-Rank Units
- Ranked Drops
- Every dungeon has a slim chance to give you a Shadow one rank above the dungeon’s baseline rank.
- S → SS is possible; in Double Dungeons, S → SS/G is also possible if you face Monarch.
- Red Gates Multiply Chances
- Because red gates are more difficult, you also have a higher chance of netting the next rank up.
- For boss-specific Shadows (like Igris, Pain, or Mihawk, depending on island), a red gate can be your best shot at an SS version.
Additional Tips & Strategies
Re-Entering Dungeons
- First Entry Is Free: Once the gate spawns, you can enter without cost.
- Re-Entry: After clearing (or failing), you can re-enter by paying Gems or Tickets. This allows you to farm the same dungeon multiple times if time remains.
Party Up for Tough Ranks
- Share Damage: If an enemy is too strong, team with friends or other players.
- Arise Requirement: Usually, you need to deal ~10% of the boss’s HP to have a shot at arising it. If you contribute too little damage, you might miss the chance.
Rune Synergy
- Rank-Up Runes: Turn an A-rank gate into S-rank for bigger rewards.
- Health Rune: Helpful if you’re struggling to kill an S-rank boss quickly.
- Time Rune: Essential if you’re borderline on finishing the dungeon or want to re-run it multiple times.
Easing the Grind
- Dungeon Gear: Some high-level weapons or Shadows drop exclusively here (like Vermillion on Leveling City or faceheal Island’s boss).
- Progress Quickly: High-rank Shadows from dungeons let you skip weaker Overworld mobs.
- Check Our “Shadows Tier List”: Focus on top-tier units if you see them in the final boss room or from mini-boss waves.
Tips to Conquer Dungeons
- Team Up: Invite friends or party with stronger players. You can clear even high-rank dungeons faster.
- Check Dungeon Rank First: If it’s low (E or D), you might skip it unless you need easier Shadows or quick gems.
- Bring Strong Shadows: Higher-level Shadows help you beat bosses before the portal closes.
- Watch the Clock: Enter the dungeon before the 15-minute timer ends. You can keep fighting even if the portal disappears outside.
Why Dungeons Matter
Dungeons drop some of the best Shadows in the game. If you aim for S-rank (or even SS-rank in a Double Dungeon), you can massively boost your damage and progression. They’re also a fun challenge for groups who want to tackle big bosses.
