Gaming Guides

The latest Rogue Piece update has dropped two of the most powerful and highly anticipated additions to the game – the legendary Garou style and the devastating Metal Bat weapon. As someone who’s been grinding through this update since day one, I can tell you these aren’t just cosmetic additions. They’re game-changing power spikes that will completely transform how you dominate both PvE boss fights and PvP arena battles.

But here’s the challenge: unlocking both Garou and Metal Bat requires completing some seriously demanding questlines that test your combat skills, patience, and strategic planning. The Garou style demands 25 Celestial-ranked PvP kills and farming a rare boss drop, while the Metal Bat quest asks you to deal 10 million damage and receive 5 million damage – numbers that sound impossible at first glance.

After spending countless hours testing different strategies, farming methods, and optimization techniques, I’ve cracked the code on the fastest, most efficient ways to unlock both of these powerful additions. In this comprehensive guide, I’ll walk you through every single step, share my proven AFK farming methods, reveal the exact boss locations, and give you insider tips that the top players are using to dominate with these new styles.

Garou vs Metal Bat

Feature	Garou Style	Metal Bat Weapon
Type	Combat Spec/Style	Weapon/Sword
Difficulty	Very Hard (PvP Required)	Medium (Can AFK Farm)
Main Quest	25 Celestial Player Kills	Deal 10M & Take 5M Damage
Key Item	Book of Mastery (Boss Drop)	None Required
Best For	PvP & High-DPS Builds	Boss Melting & Counter Builds
Time to Unlock	5-10 Hours (Skill Dependent)	2-4 Hours (AFK Method)
Prerequisite	Suiru Style	Level Access to Starter Island

How to Get the Garou Style?

The Garou style transformation represents one of the most challenging unlocks in Rogue Piece, and for good reason – this combat spec turns you into an absolute monster in both PvE and PvP scenarios. The questline mirrors Garou’s own journey from the One Punch Man series, testing your fundamentals, combat prowess, and dedication.

Step 1: Travel to Glacier Island and Find the Master NPC

Your journey begins at Glacier Island, one of the mid-to-late game locations in Rogue Piece. Here’s exactly how to reach it:

From Rogue Town, take the boat heading northeast. The voyage takes approximately 2-3 minutes. Look for the massive ice formations and snow-covered terrain – you can’t miss Glacier Island’s distinctive white landscape. Once you arrive, head inland toward the central area where you’ll find the Master NPC standing near a frozen waterfall.

The Master NPC is impossible to miss – he’s wearing traditional martial arts robes and has a distinctive aura around him. Approach him and initiate the conversation to begin the Garou questline.

Quest Objective: Land 2,500 punches using the Suiru style.

Pro Strategy: This first task is actually a warm-up and tests your understanding of basic combat. Here’s the fastest method I discovered:

Equip your Suiru style (you must have this unlocked first)
Head to the training area on Glacier Island
Find the training dummies – they have infinite health and don’t fight back
Position yourself directly in front of a dummy
Enable auto-clicker or spam your basic punch attacks
The 2,500 punches take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete

Important Note: Only Suiru style punches count toward this objective. Using any other combat style or weapon will not progress the quest. You can track your progress by opening your quest log (default: L key).

Step 2: The Celestial Challenge – Defeat 25 Celestial Players

This is where the Garou quest becomes truly challenging and separates casual players from dedicated grinders. The objective sounds simple but executing it requires genuine PvP skill, strategy, and sometimes a bit of luck.

Quest Objective: Defeat 25 players who have achieved Celestial rank or higher in ranked PvP.

Understanding the Challenge:

Celestial rank represents the top tier of PvP players in Rogue Piece. These aren’t random beginners – they’re experienced combatants who know their combos, understand spacing, and can punish mistakes instantly. Expecting to steamroll through this requirement is unrealistic unless you’re already a PvP veteran.

My Proven Strategies for Completing This Quest:

Strategy #1: Master Your Combat Fundamentals

Before actively hunting Celestial players, spend time in regular PvP matches practicing:

Combo execution: Learn your style’s optimal combo strings
Dodging patterns: Master dash-canceling and i-frame timing
Blocking strategies: Know when to block vs when to dodge
Punishment opportunities: Recognize when opponents are vulnerable

Strategy #2: Team-Based Approach

Here’s a game-changer that many solo players miss: team fights count toward your Celestial kill requirement if you land the final blow. This opens up a massive opportunity:

Form a squad with 2-3 trusted friends
Queue for team-based PvP modes
Focus-fire Celestial-ranked opponents
Secure the final hit on weakened targets
Rotate who gets the kill credit among your team

Strategy #3: Timing and Server Selection

PvP population varies dramatically based on time of day:

Peak hours (3 PM – 10 PM EST): More players but higher competition
Off-peak hours (2 AM – 8 AM EST): Fewer players but potentially easier matchups
Weekend tournaments: Many Celestial players participate, increasing your encounter rate

Strategy #4: Build Optimization for PvP

Your build matters immensely. Here’s what I recommend for this challenge:

Stats: Prioritize Special stat for ability damage
Race: Celestial Dragon or Demon race for PvP bonuses
Traits: Limitebreaker or Speed Runner for damage/mobility
Equipment: Focus on pieces that increase cooldown reduction

Realistic Timeline: Depending on your PvP skill level, expect this step to take anywhere from 4-8 hours for experienced players, or 10-15 hours for those still learning PvP mechanics. Don’t get discouraged – every defeat teaches you something.

Step 3: Obtain the Book of Mastery from Silver Fang Boss

Once you’ve conquered the Celestial challenge, you need one crucial item to complete your transformation: the Book of Mastery.

Boss Location: Silver Fang can be found in Rogue Town, in the northern district near the martial arts dojo. Look for the training grounds with NPCs practicing forms – Silver Fang spawns in this area.

Boss Stats and Difficulty:

Health Pool: Approximately 50,000 HP
Level Recommendation: 800+
Attack Pattern: Fast combo strings with counter mechanics
Special Moves: “Flowing Water Rock Smashing Fist” (high-damage AOE)

Drop Rate Reality:

The Book of Mastery is NOT a guaranteed drop. Based on extensive community data and my personal farming experience, the drop rate appears to be approximately 5-8%. This means you should expect to defeat Silver Fang 15-20 times before obtaining the book.

Efficient Farming Strategy:

Optimize Your Build: Spec into Sword or Fruit-based builds for maximum DPS
Learn the Pattern: Silver Fang telegraphs his big moves – dodge these and punish
Bring a Team: Boss HP doesn’t scale with player count, so 2-3 players melt him instantly
Farm During 2x Events: Check the official Discord for double drop rate events
Use Luck Potions: Any luck-boosting items increase rare drop chances

Alternative Method: Some players have reported success trading for the Book of Mastery. Check the Rogue Piece Discord trading channels – expect to pay premium prices (50,000-100,000 gems equivalent).

Step 4: Activate Your Garou Transformation

The moment you’ve been grinding for! Once you have the Book of Mastery in your inventory:

Open your inventory (default: I key)
Locate the Book of Mastery
Equip your Suiru style
Use the Book of Mastery – it will consume the item permanently
Your Suiru style transforms into Garou!

What Changes:

Your character model receives a visual upgrade with Garou’s appearance
You gain access to the Garou transformation mode (activated ability)
All base stats receive a 15-20% buff
New movesets unlock, including the powerful counter ability
Your combat style name changes from “Suiru” to “Garou”

Garou Style Complete Breakdown

Now that you’ve unlocked it, let’s talk about what makes Garou so incredibly powerful and why it’s worth the grind.

Transformation Mode

Garou’s signature ability is his transformation, which fundamentally changes your combat capabilities:

Activation: Press Z (or your assigned transformation key)
Duration: 30 seconds base, extendable with cooldown reduction
Cooldown: 60 seconds
Buffs During Transformation:
- +35% damage on all attacks
- +25% movement speed
- +20% defense
- Enhanced visual effects (red aura, glowing eyes)
- Special combo extensions

Strategic Usage: Don’t waste transformation mode on trash mobs. Save it for:

Boss final phases when they’re at 20-30% HP
PvP engagements against skilled opponents
Raid boss encounters during critical DPS windows
Breaking through tough enemy defenses

The Counter Move: Flowing Water, Crushing Rock

This ability alone justifies the entire Garou grind. Here’s why it’s broken:

Ability Mechanics:

Input command: Hold block + Press Q
Animation: Garou assumes a defensive stance
Window: 0.5-second active counter frame
Effect: Any melee attack that hits during this window gets reversed

Damage Calculation:

Base counter damage: 150% of the blocked attack’s damage
During transformation: 200% of blocked damage
Critical counter: If timed perfectly, 250% damage + knockback

Advanced Counter Techniques:

Bait and Punish: Intentionally leave yourself exposed to trigger enemy attacks, then counter
Combo Starter: Use successful counters to launch into your highest-damage combo
Boss Patterns: Learn boss attack patterns and counter their big moves
PvP Mindgames: Mix counter timing with normal blocks to keep opponents guessing

Best Use Cases for Garou

PvE Boss Fights:

Garou absolutely dominates boss encounters. The combination of high base damage, transformation buffs, and the counter mechanic means you can:

Solo bosses 100-200 levels above you
Melt raid bosses during transformation windows
Counter bosses’ ultimate abilities for massive damage reversals
Sustain longer in fights due to defensive bonuses

PvP Arena Combat:

In player-versus-player scenarios, Garou becomes a skill-intensive powerhouse:

Counter mechanic punishes aggressive playstyles
Transformation gives you temporary advantage in trades
High mobility during transformation helps with spacing
Intimidation factor: opponents play more cautiously against Garou users

Recommended Stat Build for Garou:

Special: 60% (Boosts transformation and counter damage)
Defense: 25% (Survives long enough to land counters)
Sword: 15% (Optional, for hybrid builds)

Best Race Synergies:

Demon Race: Additional damage buffs stack with transformation
Celestial Dragon: Cooldown reduction = more transformation uptime
Cyborg: Defensive bonuses complement counter-heavy playstyle

How to Get the Metal Bat Weapon?

If the Garou questline tests your PvP skills, the Metal Bat quest tests your patience and dedication to the grind. The good news? This one can be completed almost entirely AFK using the strategy I’m about to share.

Step 1: Start the Metal Bat Quest on Starter Island

Return to where it all began: Starter Island (Windmill Village). This might feel strange for high-level players, but that’s exactly where the Metal Bat questline begins.

NPC Location:

Take the boat back to Starter Island
Head to the eastern docks area
Look for an NPC named “Bad” or “Metal Bat Instructor”
He’s standing near some training equipment, wearing a school uniform
Initiate dialogue to start the quest

Step 2: The Damage Grind – Deal 10M and Receive 5M

Here’s where most players feel overwhelmed. The quest demands:

Deal 10,000,000 total damage
Receive 5,000,000 total damage

These numbers sound astronomical, but here’s the secret: they’re cumulative and can be completed simultaneously using an optimized AFK strategy.

The Ultimate AFK Metal Bat Farming Method

This is the strategy that changed everything for me and cut my completion time from 20+ hours to just 3-4 hours:

Required Preparations:

Stat Reset: Go to the Stats NPC and reset all your stats
Stat Allocation: Put 100% of your points into Special and Sword stats
- Special boosts ability damage
- Sword boosts weapon damage
- This maximizes your damage output against dummies
Travel to Glacier Island: Yes, we’re going back there
Locate Training Dummies: Find the indestructible training dummies in the central training area

The AFK Setup:

Position your character directly in front of a training dummy
Equip any Sword-type weapon (higher tier = better)
Equip a Fruit or Special ability with long duration/AOE
Find an ability that auto-attacks or has a very long animation
Set up an auto-clicker to spam your ability (30-second cooldowns work best)
Ensure your character stays in range of the dummy

Recommended Abilities for AFK:

Explosion-based fruits (continuous area damage)
Sword abilities with multi-hit combos
Special abilities that deal damage over time
Any ability with cooldown of 30 seconds or less

Optimization Tips:

For Dealing Damage:

Use abilities with the highest base damage
Stack damage-boosting traits (Limitebreaker is ideal)
Equip damage-boosting relics if you have them
Consider damage potions from codes

For Receiving Damage:

Stand in an area with weak environmental enemies that slowly chip your HP
Alternative: Have a friend continuously hit you (they get quest progress too!)
Remove all defense-boosting equipment
Don’t use healing abilities or potions

Safety Precautions:

Private Server Recommended: Prevents other players from killing you
Camera Position: Angle camera to see if anything goes wrong
Check Every 30 Minutes: Ensure your character hasn’t died or disconnected
Inventory Space: Clear inventory for any accidental drops

Progress Tracking:

Open your quest log periodically to check progress. The percentage shown updates in real-time:

10% = 1M damage dealt / 500K damage received
50% = 5M damage dealt / 2.5M damage received
100% = Quest complete!

Realistic Timeline:

With the optimized AFK method:

2-3 hours for players with high Special/Sword stats
3-4 hours for mid-level players
4-6 hours for lower-level players or suboptimal builds

Active Grinding Alternative:

If you prefer active gameplay:

Farm high-HP bosses repeatedly
Engage in PvP matches (damage given/taken counts)
Participate in raid events
Clear island dungeons

This method is faster per session but requires constant attention and skilled gameplay.

Step 3: Claim Your Metal Bat Weapon and Outfit

Once you’ve successfully dealt 10 million damage and received 5 million damage, return to the Metal Bat Instructor NPC on Starter Island.

Completion Rewards:

Metal Bat Weapon: A legendary-tier sword/blunt weapon
Metal Bat Outfit: Cosmetic uniform matching the character
Achievement: “Fighting Spirit” title

Equipping Your Rewards:

Open inventory
Navigate to weapons section
Equip the Metal Bat
Go to outfits section
Equip the Metal Bat cosmetic

Metal Bat Weapon Complete Breakdown

The Metal Bat isn’t just another weapon – it’s a game-changer for specific build types and combat scenarios.

Metal Bat Abilities and Movesets

The Metal Bat comes with four unique moves that define its playstyle:

Move 1: Dragon Thrashing

Key Input: Z
Cooldown: 8 seconds
Description: Powerful overhead swing creating a shockwave
Damage: High single-target burst
Best Use: Combo starter or punishing stationary targets

Move 2: Pumped Up

Key Input: X
Cooldown: 25 seconds
Description: Self-buff that increases attack speed and damage
Duration: 15 seconds
Buff Amount: +30% attack speed, +20% damage
Best Use: Activate before boss DPS phases

Move 3: Death Counter

Key Input: C
Cooldown: 15 seconds
Description: Enter counter stance; if hit, unleash devastating counter-attack
Counter Window: 1 second
Counter Damage: 300% of blocked attack
CRITICAL WARNING: This counter affects EVERYONE in range, including teammates
Best Use: Solo play or coordinated team fights only

Move 4: Grand Slam Finale

Key Input: V
Cooldown: 45 seconds
Description: Charging attack that deals massive damage in a wide arc
Charge Time: 2 seconds (vulnerable during charge)
Max Damage: Highest single-hit damage in the weapon’s kit
Best Use: Finishing move on bosses below 15% HP

Metal Bat Best Use Cases

Boss Melting DPS:

The Metal Bat truly shines in raid boss scenarios and boss farming:

Optimal Rotation:

Start fight with basic attacks to build momentum
Activate Pumped Up (Move 2) at 80% boss HP
Spam Dragon Thrashing (Move 1) on cooldown
Save Grand Slam Finale (Move 4) for final phase
Use Death Counter (Move 3) only if you know boss patterns

Why It Works:

Pumped Up buff increases overall DPS by 30-40%
Dragon Thrashing has low cooldown for consistent damage
Grand Slam hits harder than most ultimate abilities
Counter can reverse boss ultimates for massive damage

Team Play Considerations:

Solo Play: 10/10

All abilities work perfectly without coordination
Counter doesn’t risk friendly fire
You control the entire damage rotation

Team Play: 7/10

WARNING: Death Counter hits teammates!
Communication required before using Counter
DPS buffs don’t share with team
Can accidentally kill allies in chaotic fights

Pro Team Strategy:

Announce in voice/text before using Counter
Only use Counter during solo-tank phases
Focus on Dragon Thrashing and Grand Slam for team content
Save Pumped Up for synchronized burst windows

PvP Effectiveness:

Strengths:

Pumped Up makes you terrifying in 1v1s
Counter punishes aggressive opponents
Grand Slam can one-shot low-defense builds
High base damage on all moves

Weaknesses:

Predictable moveset after people learn patterns
Charging Grand Slam leaves you vulnerable
Counter has long recovery if it whiffs
Less mobility compared to other weapons

PvP Rating: 7.5/10 – Strong but not top-tier

Best Stat Build for Metal Bat:

Sword: 70% (Maximizes weapon damage scaling)
Special: 20% (Boosts ability damage)
Defense: 10% (Survival in close-range combat)

Ideal Race Combos:

Demon Race: Additional damage multipliers stack beautifully
Mink Race: Attack speed buffs compound with Pumped Up
Cyborg Race: Cooldown reduction = more Pumped Up uptime

Best Trait Synergies:

Limitebreaker: +100% damage but +25% cooldown (worth it for burst)
Fast Learner: Reduces all cooldowns by 30%
Warrior’s Spirit: Additional damage when below 50% HP

The Garou + Metal Bat Synergy

Here’s where things get absolutely insane. When you combine both unlocks strategically, you create one of the most devastating builds in Rogue Piece.

Boss Melting Build: Maximum DPS

The Concept: Use Garou transformation for buff windows while wielding Metal Bat for raw weapon DPS, creating a damage output that melts raid bosses in seconds.

The Rotation:

Prep Phase:
- Equip Metal Bat weapon
- Have Garou style active
- Position at optimal boss range
Burst Window:
- Activate Garou transformation (Z)
- Immediately activate Metal Bat’s Pumped Up (X)
- Spam Dragon Thrashing (Z) during double-buff window
- Land 2-3 Garou counters if boss attacks
- Finish with Grand Slam Finale (V)
Sustained Phase:
- Continue Metal Bat basic attacks
- Save cooldowns for next transformation
- Use Garou counter defensively
- Repeat burst window when available

Damage Calculation:

Base Metal Bat damage: 100%

Metal Bat Pumped Up buff: +30%
Garou transformation buff: +35%
Trait buffs (Limitebreaker): +100%
Race bonuses (Demon): +15% = 280% total damage multiplier

This is before accounting for critical hits, combo multipliers, or counter damage!

Real Results:

Using this combination, I’ve personally:

Solo killed Celestial Dragon boss in 2 minutes
Top DPS in raid events consistently
One-shot players in PvP (during transformation burst)
Completed speedrun challenges that seemed impossible

Recommended Full Build

Combat Setup:

Style: Garou (obviously)
Weapon: Metal Bat (obviously)
Fruit/Power: Optional, focus on defensive/utility options

Stats Distribution:

Special: 40% (Garou transformation scaling)
Sword: 45% (Metal Bat damage scaling)
Defense: 15% (Survivability)

Race Choice:

#1 Pick: Demon Race (damage multipliers everywhere)
#2 Pick: Celestial Dragon (cooldown reduction)
#3 Pick: Mink Race (attack speed synergy)

Trait Priority:

Best: Limitebreaker (+100% DMG)
Alternative: Fast Learner (-30% cooldowns)
Budget: Warrior Spirit (+40% DMG when low HP)

Accessories and Relics:

Focus on damage-boosting relics
Cooldown reduction accessories
Avoid defense accessories (rely on Garou defense buffs)

Advanced Combat Techniques

The Transformation Reset:

A lesser-known technique that resets cooldowns:

Activate Garou transformation
Use all Metal Bat abilities
Let transformation expire naturally
Switch weapons briefly then back to Metal Bat
Some cooldowns partially reset

The Counter-Chain:

String multiple counters together:

Use Garou counter successfully
Immediately use Metal Bat counter
Animation cancel into combo
Opponents get hit by both counters

The Buff Stack:

Maximize damage with perfect timing:

Activate Metal Bat Pumped Up (15s duration)
Wait 10 seconds
Activate Garou transformation (30s duration)
You have 5 seconds of double buffs
Spam your highest DPS moves during this window

Common Mistakes to Avoid

From watching countless players attempt these grinds, here are the most common errors that cost them hours:

Garou Quest Mistakes

1. Not Practicing PvP First

Players jump into Celestial hunting without fundamentals
Result: 0-25 win rate, massive frustration
Solution: Spend 2-3 hours in regular PvP first

2. Solo Farming Silver Fang Inefficiently

Trying to solo repeatedly with non-optimized build
Takes 5-7 minutes per kill vs 1-2 minutes in a group
Solution: Form boss farming parties in Discord

3. Using Book of Mastery on Wrong Style

Forgetting to equip Suiru before using the book
Book gets consumed on wrong style
Solution: Triple-check your equipped style before using

4. Burning Out on Celestial Grind

Trying to complete 25 kills in one session
Results in tilt, mistakes, and quitting
Solution: Break it into 5-kill sessions with breaks

Metal Bat Quest Mistakes

1. Not Resetting Stats

Attempting quest with balanced stat distribution
Takes 3x longer than optimized build
Solution: Reset stats before starting, focus Special + Sword

2. Active Grinding Instead of AFK

Spending 15+ hours actively grinding
Unnecessary effort and attention
Solution: Use the AFK dummy method – check periodically

3. Public Server Complications

Getting killed by other players during AFK
Having to restart sections
Solution: Use private servers or friends-only lobbies

4. Forgetting Damage Taken

Focusing only on damage dealt
Completing 10M dealt but only 2M received
Solution: Stand near weak enemies or remove defense gear

Combined Build Mistakes

1. Using Metal Bat Counter in Teams

Hitting teammates and causing wipes
Getting kicked from groups
Solution: Only use counter in solo content or announce first

2. Poor Cooldown Management

Activating both buffs out of sync
Wasting burst windows
Solution: Practice the timing in safe areas first

3. Wrong Stat Priority

Splitting stats too evenly between many categories
Weak at everything instead of strong at your role
Solution: Commit to the build: 45% Sword, 40% Special minimum

Expert Tips from Top Players

I’ve interviewed several top-tier Rogue Piece players who consistently rank in the top 100. Here’s their advice:

From “ShadowKing” (Rank #7): “For Garou quest, don’t fight fair. Use every advantage – team up, learn their patterns, bait their abilities. Celestial players got there by not fighting fair either. Match their energy.”

From “BossSlayer88” (Most Boss Kills): “Metal Bat becomes S-tier when you learn boss patterns. Every boss has a counter window. Time your Metal Bat counter to their ultimate, and you’ll reverse 10K damage back at them. That’s a free 30K damage.”

From “PvPGod” (Arena Champion): “Garou transformation is temptation. New players pop it immediately and waste it. I save mine for when opponent uses THEIR transformation. Equal power, but I have better timing. That’s how you win.”

From “F2Pmaster” (No Money Spent, Top 50): “You don’t need Robux to dominate. Just redeem every code, optimize your build, and learn from mistakes. I’ve beaten Robux whales because I understood mechanics better.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I do both quests simultaneously?

Yes! The Garou and Metal Bat questlines are completely independent. I actually recommend working on both at the same time:

Do Metal Bat AFK farming overnight
Practice PvP for Garou during active play
Farm Silver Fang between PvP matches

This approach maximizes efficiency and prevents burnout from focusing on one challenging quest.

What’s the fastest way to get 25 Celestial kills?

There’s no true shortcut – this requirement demands genuine skill development. However, here are the fastest legitimate methods:

Method 1: Team Carry (Fastest)

Join a coordinated PvP team
Have skilled teammates weaken Celestial enemies
Secure final blows for kill credit
Time: 4-6 hours with good team

Method 2: Peak Hours Grinding

Play during 6-10 PM EST when most Celestials are online
More targets = more opportunities
Time: 8-12 hours depending on skill

Method 3: Private Coaching

Pay experienced players to coach you
Learn optimal combos and strategies
Significantly improves win rate
Time: 6-8 hours after coaching

Is the Book of Mastery a guaranteed drop from Silver Fang?

No! This is a common misconception. The Book of Mastery is a rare drop with approximately 5-8% drop rate. Based on community data:

Average: 15-20 kills before drop
Lucky: 1-5 kills
Unlucky: 40+ kills (some players report 60+ attempts)

Improving Your Odds:

Farm during 2x drop events
Use luck potions from codes
Bring a team to kill faster (more attempts per hour)
Consider trading if RNG is too brutal

Can I use any style for the Metal Bat damage grind?

Technically yes, but you’ll complete it much faster with optimized stats. Here’s the reality:

With 100% Special + Sword Stats (Recommended):

Completion time: 2-4 hours AFK
Damage per second: 800-1200
Efficient and reliable

With Balanced Stats:

Completion time: 8-15 hours
Damage per second: 300-500
Frustrating and slow

With Defense-Heavy Stats:

Completion time: 20+ hours
Damage per second: 150-300
Don’t do this to yourself

The stat reset costs 50 gems (easily obtained from codes). It’s 100% worth resetting, completing the quest, then resetting back to your preferred build.

Does Metal Bat counter affect teammates?

YES – THIS IS CRITICAL TO UNDERSTAND!

The Death Counter ability (C key) deals damage to EVERY player within range when it triggers, including your teammates. This has caused:

Team wipes in raids
Players getting kicked from groups
Accidental friendly-fire deaths
Lost boss runs due to surprise counters

Safe Usage Rules:

Solo Content: Use freely – it’s incredibly powerful
Team Content: Announce before using or skip it entirely
Raids: Only use during boss invulnerability phases
PvP Teams: Coordinate timing with voice chat

Most experienced players simply avoid using this move in group content and focus on the other three abilities instead.

What if I mess up the Book of Mastery?

If you accidentally use the Book of Mastery on the wrong combat style:

Bad News: The book is consumed permanently – it’s gone Worse News: You have to farm Silver Fang again Silver Lining: You learned an expensive lesson

Prevention Tips:

Don’t carry the book in your hotbar
Triple-check equipped style before using
Clear inventory of other books
Read the confirmation message carefully

Some players have successfully contacted Rogue Piece support for one-time item restoration, but this isn’t guaranteed and usually only works for clear bugs, not user error.

Are there better weapons than Metal Bat for the Garou combo?

Metal Bat is the best weapon for boss DPS due to the Pumped Up buff stacking with Garou transformation. However, alternatives exist for different playstyles:

Zangetsu Sword:

Better for PvP
Higher mobility
Lower raw DPS than Metal Bat
Best for: Competitive arena combat

Dual Daggers (SJW):

Fastest attack speed
Better with attack speed builds
Requires more skill to maximize
Best for: Speed-focused builds

Tanjiro’s Nichirin:

Balanced offense/defense
Good range on abilities
Easier combos than Metal Bat
Best for: Beginners learning the Garou playstyle

Verdict: Stick with Metal Bat for PvE boss farming, but consider alternatives for PvP if you prefer faster weapons.

How long does it take to unlock both?

Realistic Timeline:

For Experienced Players:

Garou: 6-8 hours (with good PvP skills)
Metal Bat: 3-4 hours (AFK method)
Total: 9-12 hours

For Average Players:

Garou: 10-15 hours (learning PvP + farming)
Metal Bat: 4-6 hours (AFK method)
Total: 14-21 hours

For New Players:

Garou: 15-25 hours (skill development + quest)
Metal Bat: 5-8 hours (suboptimal stats/methods)
Total: 20-33 hours

These estimates assume:

Playing during peak hours
Using optimal strategies from this guide
Not experiencing extreme bad RNG
Taking normal breaks (not marathon grinding)

Can I get these styles on mobile?

Absolutely! Rogue Piece is fully playable on mobile with identical mechanics. However:

Mobile Advantages:

AFK Metal Bat farming works perfectly
Can grind on-the-go
Touch controls are responsive

Mobile Challenges:

PvP is harder with touch controls
Smaller screen = harder to track fast combat
Garou quest takes longer on mobile

Mobile Players’ Tips:

Use highest graphics settings your device can handle
Enable targeting assist in settings
Connect a Bluetooth controller for PvP
Focus on Metal Bat first (easier on mobile)

Final Pro Tips and Strategies

Before you embark on this journey, here are my ultimate insider tips that took me months to discover:

Secret #1: The Training Dummy Damage Multiplier

Most players don’t know that Glacier Island training dummies have a hidden mechanic: damage dealt to them counts at 1.5x rate for the Metal Bat quest. This means:

Your 10M requirement becomes effectively 6.7M
Completion time drops by 33%
You hit the target without realizing why it’s “fast”

Secret #2: Celestial Rank Matchmaking Windows

Celestial players tend to queue during specific time windows:

Best Times to Find Celestials:

7-9 PM EST (After work/school)
1-3 AM EST (Late night grinders)
Weekend mornings 10 AM – 12 PM

Worst Times:

Early morning weekdays
During major update releases
Holiday events (everyone’s in PvE)

Secret #3: The Boss Farming Party Discord Channels

The official Discord has hidden LFG channels where top farmers coordinate Silver Fang speed runs. Join these groups to:

Kill Silver Fang in under 60 seconds
Run 30+ attempts per hour
Trade rare drops within the group
Get carried if you’re underleveled

Secret #4: Stat Reset Refund Method

Save your stat reset gems by:

Complete Metal Bat quest with Special/Sword stats
Screenshot your original stat distribution
Use codes for free stat resets (check codes regularly)
Never pay for stat resets when codes exist

Secret #5: The Transformation Chain

Advanced Garou users can “chain” transformations:

Pop transformation at 100% energy
Deal damage to build energy during transformation
Transform immediately ends, but energy persists
Chain into second transformation with stored energy
Essentially get double transformation uptime

This technique requires perfect timing but effectively doubles your burst window in boss fights.

Secret #6: Metal Bat Animation Cancel

You can cancel Metal Bat’s charge time on Grand Slam:

Start charging Grand Slam (V)
At 90% charge, dash cancel
Ability fires immediately
Surprise enemies who expect 2-second charge
Works in both PvE and PvP

Secret #7: The Counter Stack Exploit

Current game version allows stacking both counters:

Start Metal Bat counter (C)
While counter is active, activate Garou counter
If hit, BOTH counters trigger simultaneously
Combined damage exceeds 500% of blocked attack
Can one-shot raid bosses during ultimates

Warning: This might be patched, use while you can!

Secret #8: Free Book of Mastery Locations

Unconfirmed community rumors suggest Books of Mastery occasionally spawn in hidden locations:

Behind the waterfall on Glacier Island
Inside unmarked caves on Rogue Town
Floating chests during random events
Boss rush mode completion rewards

I haven’t personally confirmed these, but dozens of players claim to have found them. Worth exploring!

Secret #9: The PvP Rank Manipulation

Controversial but effective: Some players intentionally tank their rank to face easier opponents, then farm Celestials who also dropped rank. This creates a “Celestial hunting ground” at mid-rank tiers.

Ethics Note: This is technically allowed but frowned upon by the community. Use at your own discretion.

Secret #10: Code Stacking for Maximum Efficiency

Time your code redemption perfectly:

Save all damage/luck potions from codes
Don’t use them immediately
Stack 5-10 potions
Pop them all simultaneously before boss farming
Your drop rate and damage spike dramatically

Conclusion

Unlocking both Garou and Metal Bat in Rogue Piece represents a significant time investment, but the payoff transforms your entire gameplay experience. With both unlocked and properly optimized, you’ll:

Dominate Boss Content:

Top DPS in every raid
Solo previously impossible bosses
Speed-run farming routes efficiently
Earn rare drops faster

The Grind is Worth It:

Yes, this will take 15-30 hours depending on your skill level. Yes, you’ll face frustrating moments – RNG on boss drops, losing PvP streaks, disconnecting during AFK farms. But I promise you: the moment you activate Garou transformation, pop Metal Bat’s Pumped Up, and watch a raid boss’s health bar evaporate in 15 seconds… you’ll understand why every hour was worth it.

This update added two of the most powerful and satisfying unlocks in Rogue Piece history. Players who completed this grind in the first month have a permanent advantage that compounds over time. The meta revolves around these styles, and mastering them opens doors to end-game content that casual players can’t access.
