Blox Fruits Control Awakening Guide (January 2026) Master the Control
Are you ready to unlock the devastating power of the Control fruit in Blox Fruits? The Control rework introduced in Update 29 has completely transformed how this mythical fruit functions, making it one of the most formidable abilities in the game. Unlike traditional fruit awakenings that rely on raid grinding, Control awakening uses a unique Admin Panel system that requires strategic planning, resource management, and quest completion.
I’ve spent countless hours testing and mastering the Control awakening system, and I’m here to share everything you need to know. This comprehensive guide will walk you through every step of the awakening process, from finding the Mysterious Scientist to farming Simulation Data efficiently. You’ll learn exactly how to complete each research quest, avoid common pitfalls, and maximize your Control fruit’s potential in both PvP and PvE scenarios.
Quick Overview: Control Awakening at a Glance
| Aspect | Requirement | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Prerequisites | Control Fruit + 200+ Mastery | Must have Control equipped and access to Second/Third Sea |
| Total Cost | 2,300+ Simulation Data | Plus 12,500 Fragments and 50+ Scrap Metal |
| Time Investment | 10-20+ hours | Depending on farming efficiency and dungeon skill |
| Main Quests | 3 Major Upgrades | Dungeon clears, mastery grinding, and special tasks |
| Key Resources | Simulation Data, Fragments, Scrap Metal | Obtained through dungeons and various farming methods |
Chapter 1: Getting Started – Prerequisites and Preparation
Essential Requirements Before You Begin
Before you can even think about awakening your Control fruit, you need to meet these non-negotiable prerequisites:
- Control Fruit Equipped: You must have eaten and actively equipped the Control fruit
- 200+ Mastery: Your Control fruit needs at least 200 mastery to start the awakening process
- Second or Third Sea Access: The Admin Panel is only available in these areas
- Dungeon Access: You need to unlock the Dungeon system through Lucien
- Basic Resources: Start collecting Fragments and Scrap Metal early
Pro Tip: Don’t wait until you have 200 mastery to start preparing. Begin farming dungeons and collecting Trinkets as soon as you get the Control fruit. This will give you a head start on Simulation Data collection.
Finding the Mysterious Scientist – Admin Panel Locations
The Mysterious Scientist is your gateway to the Control awakening system. His location varies by sea:
Second Sea Location
- Area: Cold/Ice region (Hot & Cold Island)
- Access: Look for a hidden laboratory door
- Code: Red – Blue – Green – Blue (or 1-3-2-3 on keypads)
- Important: Unequip all items before entering the code
Third Sea Location
- Area: Castle on the Sea
- Position: Left side near the “Set Home” point
- Access: Much easier – no codes required
Once you find the Mysterious Scientist, interact with him to access the Control Admin Panel UI. This interface will be your command center for the entire awakening process.
Chapter 2: Understanding the Admin Panel System
How the Research System Works?
The Control awakening uses a unique Research System that’s completely different from traditional raid-based awakenings. Here’s how it works:
- Start Research: Always click “Start Research” BEFORE completing requirements
- Complete Objectives: Finish the specific tasks for each upgrade
- Pay Resources: Submit the required materials (Simulation Data, Fragments, Scrap Metal)
- Unlock Abilities: Receive your awakened moves permanently
Critical Warning: If you complete a dungeon or task without starting the research first, your progress won’t count. I learned this the hard way and wasted several dungeon runs!
Resource Management Overview
| Resource | Primary Source | Total Needed | Farming Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Simulation Data | Dungeon Trinkets → Scrap | 2,300+ | Highest |
| Fragments | Various activities | 12,500+ | Medium |
| Scrap Metal | Enemy drops | 50+ | Medium |
| Control Fruits | Stock system | 2 extra | Low (but crucial) |
Chapter 3: Complete Awakening Quest Walkthrough
Upgrade 1: Spatial Cut Authorization
This first upgrade introduces the damaging spatial cuts mechanic to your Dagger mode M1 attacks.
Requirements:
- Task: Clear 1 Dungeon on any difficulty
- Cost: 100 Simulation Data + 500 Fragments + 30 Scrap Metal
- Reward: Dagger drag M1 creates damaging spatial cuts
Step-by-Step Process:
- Start Research: Admin Panel → Control → Spatial Cut Authorization → Start Research
- Access Dungeon: Talk to Lucien → choose Hub
- Clear Dungeon: Complete any dungeon (Beginner difficulty recommended)
- Return & Craft: Go back to Mysterious Scientist → Complete Research → Craft
Common Mistakes to Avoid:
- Don’t switch fruits during the dungeon run
- Make sure Control is equipped when you complete the dungeon
- Start research BEFORE entering the dungeon
Upgrade 2: Room Relocation Protocol
This is arguably the most game-changing upgrade for Control, allowing you to relocate your Room ability.
Requirements:
- Task: Clear 3 Dungeons
- Cost: 200 Simulation Data + 2,000 Fragments + 20 Scrap Metal
- Reward: Reactivating Z outside Room relocates Room to your position
Step-by-Step Process:
- Start Research: Admin Panel → Room Relocation Protocol → Start Research
- Complete 3 Dungeons: Progress typically shows 33.3% → 66.6% → 100%
- Handle 99% Bug: If stuck at 99%, complete ONE additional dungeon
- Return & Craft: Complete Research → Craft the upgrade
Pro Strategy:
This upgrade transforms Control from a stationary zone ability into a mobile control tool. In PvP, it enables real chase pressure, and in PvE, it keeps fights anchored even when bosses reposition.
Upgrade 3: Total Control Override (2-Part Quest)
This is the endgame awakening that requires both mastery and special tasks.
Part 1: Spatial Tearing Application
Requirements:
- Mastery Gate: 500 Control mastery required
- Task: Apply spatial tearing/cuts to NPCs until 100% progress
- Cost: Research only (no materials yet)
Step-by-Step:
- Reach 500 Mastery: This typically takes 40+ minutes of focused grinding
- Start Research: Admin Panel → Total Control Override Part 1 → Start Research
- Apply to NPCs: Use your Dagger M1 on NPCs (not buildings or props)
- Progress Tracking: Expect ~1% progress per valid application
Critical Note: Many players waste time cutting buildings. ONLY NPCs count toward progress!
Part 2: The Final Sacrifice
Requirements:
- Task: Eat another Control fruit after starting research
- Cost: 10,000 Fragments + 2,000 Simulation Data
- Reward: Fully awakened Control with ultimate sync ability
Step-by-Step:
- Start Part 2 Research: Admin Panel → Total Control Override Part 2 → Start Research
- Obtain Control Fruit: Buy from stock or find one
- Eat the Fruit: Consume it while research is active
- Complete & Craft: Pay the final cost to unlock full awakening
Warning: If you eat the Control fruit BEFORE starting research, you’ll waste it completely!
Chapter 4: Simulation Data – Complete Farming Guide
What is Simulation Data?
Simulation Data is the key currency for Control awakening, introduced in Update 29. It’s a rare material that cannot be obtained through codes or normal quests.
Method 1: Trinket Scraping (Free Method)
This is the most reliable free method for obtaining Simulation Data:
- Run Dungeons: Participate in Dungeon events (solo or with teams)
- Earn Trinkets: Receive random Trinkets as rewards
- Visit Trinket Refiner: Go to the Dungeon area
- Scrap Trinkets: Convert Trinkets into Simulation Data
Trinket Rarity Values:
- Common Trinket: 80 Simulation Data
- Uncommon Trinket: 160 Simulation Data
- Rare Trinket: 460 Simulation Data
Dungeon Difficulty Rewards:
- Normal Difficulty: 80-90 Simulation Data + 1 Trinket
- Hard Difficulty: 160-170 Simulation Data + 1-2 Trinkets
- Challenge Difficulty: Higher chance for multiple Trinkets
Method 2: Robux Purchase (Premium Method)
For players who prefer to skip the grind:
- Open Blox Fruits Shop: Access the in-game store
- Find Simulation Data Packs: Available in various amounts
- Purchase with Robux: Instant access to Simulation Data
Optimal Farming Strategy
Based on my testing, here’s the most efficient approach:
- Focus on Hard Dungeons: Better rewards per time invested
- Team Up: Join experienced teams for faster clears
- Prioritize Trinket Rarity: Higher rarity = more Simulation Data
- Daily Consistency: Run dungeons regularly for steady progress
Chapter 5: Dungeon Mastery for Control Awakening
Accessing Dungeons
- Find Lucien: Located in the main hub area
- Choose Hub: Select the Dungeon Hub option
- Start or Join: Host your own run or join others
- Select Difficulty: Beginner, Normal, Hard, or Challenge
Dungeon Mechanics for Control Users
Essential Perks for Control:
| Perk | Why It’s Essential | Best Time to Take |
|---|---|---|
| Uninterruptable | Keeps casts stable under pressure | Crowded waves/heavy bosses |
| Lifesteal | Increases survival, reduces wipe risk | Late waves/hazard floors |
| Fruit Damage | Speeds clears and boss phases | When team DPS is low |
| Defense | Prevents random one-shots | Boss phase transitions |
Common Dungeon Pitfalls:
Lava/Hazard Floors: Reposition immediately when floors become dangerous. Don’t greed for damage when the environment is lethal.
Boss Invulnerability: If boss HP isn’t dropping, look for map objectives (shrines/vents) and destroy them first. Boss HP pools can reach 1.16M+ in higher difficulties.
Chapter 6: Resource Farming Strategies
Scrap Metal Farming
Scrap Metal often becomes the bottleneck for awakening progress. Here’s my efficient farming method:
- Target Dense NPC Clusters: Focus on areas with fast respawn rates
- Maximize Kills Per Minute: Travel time is your enemy
- Optimal Locations:
- Second Sea: Kingdom of Rose (high density)
- Third Sea: Port Town or Hydra Island
Fragment Farming
While less critical than Simulation Data, you still need 12,500+ fragments:
- Boss Hunting: Defeat sea bosses for large fragment amounts
- Ship Raids: Participate in sea events
- Quest Completion: Regular quests provide steady fragments
Control Fruit Management
You need TWO additional Control fruits for the full awakening:
- Stock Monitoring: Check the Blox Fruits stock regularly
- Timing: Buy during low stock periods for better prices
- Storage: Keep fruits in inventory until needed for Part 2
Chapter 7: Advanced Tips and Pro Strategies
PvP Applications of Awakened Control
Once fully awakened, Control becomes a PvP powerhouse:
- Room Relocation Tactic: Use your relocated Room to corner opponents
- Spatial Cut Pressure: Apply continuous damage with Dagger M1 cuts
- Combo Potential: Combine with sword or fighting style for devastating combos
- Zone Control: Dominate battlefield with mobile Room placement
PvE Optimization
For grinding and boss hunting:
- Mob Clearing: Use spatial cuts for efficient crowd control
- Boss Fighting: Relocate Room to keep bosses contained
- Dungeon Speed: Awakened abilities significantly speed up dungeon runs
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Not Starting Research First: The #1 mistake players make
- Wrong Targets for Part 1: Cutting props instead of NPCs
- Premature Fruit Eating: Consuming Control before starting Part 2 research
- Resource Mismanagement: Running out of Scrap Metal at crucial moments
Chapter 9: Beyond Awakening – Maximizing Your Control Fruit
Optimal Builds for Awakened Control
Once fully awakened, consider these build combinations:
- Control + Sword: Use sword for damage while Control provides utility
- Control + Fighting Style: Enhanced combo potential with stun abilities
- Control + Gun: Ranged pressure combined with zone control
Race Synergies
Certain races work exceptionally well with Control:
- Shark: Enhanced mobility in water with Room control
- Cyborg: Energy regeneration helps with ability spam
- Human: Increased damage output complements Control’s utility
Future-Proofing Your Investment
The Control rework has made this fruit future-proof:
- Regular updates and balance changes
- Growing meta relevance in PvP
- Consistent developer support
- High skill ceiling with room for mastery
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I awaken Control without reaching Second or Third Sea?
No. Control awakening is locked behind the Admin Panel, which only becomes available through the Mysterious Scientist in Second Sea and Third Sea.
Why is my progress stuck at 99% for the 3-dungeon quest?
This is a known bug. Simply complete one additional dungeon run and the quest will immediately register as complete.
Can I clear dungeons with Buddha and switch to Control at the end?
No. Control must be equipped for the entire dungeon run for progress to count. Switching at the end will not register any progress.
Does eating another Control fruit overwrite my current one?
No. As long as you start the Part 2 research before eating another Control fruit, your awakened abilities will remain intact.
What’s the fastest way to reach 500 mastery?
Farm dense NPC zones with minimal travel time. Use Room to group enemies together and maximize hits per minute, which dramatically speeds up mastery gain.
Can I get Simulation Data from Blox Fruits codes?
No. Simulation Data cannot be obtained from codes. It must be earned through dungeon runs or purchased with Robux.
Which upgrade gives the biggest power spike?
Upgrade 2 – Room Relocation Protocol.
This is the most game-changing upgrade because it turns Control from a stationary ability into a highly mobile and aggressive combat style.
How long does the full Control awakening take?
With efficient farming and good execution, expect 10–20+ hours of focused gameplay depending on skill, luck, and team coordination.
Conclusion
Awakening the Control fruit is a marathon, not a sprint. It requires patience, strategic planning, and dedication. But the rewards are absolutely worth it – you’ll have one of the most versatile and powerful fruits in Blox Fruits.
Remember these key takeaways:
- Always start research before completing objectives
