Anime Vanguards: Wrathful Assault How to Unlock Wrath (Assault)

Battlepass Tier 50 routes for the Wrathful Assault Exclusive, shiny premium, and XP farming.

Last updated:

How to Get Wrath (Assault)

Wrath (Assault) is the Exclusive Curse unit at the end of the current Anime Vanguards Battlepass season under the Wrathful Assault / Wrath’s End branding. You do not summon it from a standard gem banner. You climb to Tier 50 on the pass. Free track awards the base unit. Premium awards the shiny Wrath (Assault). Cosmetic Pass Tier 50 awards the Wrath skin. Tier 25 on the same season awards the A Beast Plays memoria that supports the kit.

This guide is the unlock path: understand the reward lanes, pick an XP method, stack multipliers from the Wrath Event, and avoid wasting days on inefficient modes.

Confirm you are on the right Battlepass

Open the Battlepass menu in the lobby. Confirm the season that lists:

  • Tier 25 — A Beast Plays memoria
  • Tier 50 — Wrath (Assault) (shiny on premium)

Season progress reset when Wrath’s End launched. Old season tiers do not carry. If you bought premium last season, you still need to repurchase for the new premium lane. Buying premium does not grant bonus XP by itself; it only unlocks the premium reward column. Level skips exist as Robux add-ons if you are buying time, not if you are farming.

Why Wrath (Assault) is worth the grind

Wrath is built as an Evils enabler, not a lonely hypercarry. Headline kit points (full breakdown on Wrath (Assault)):

  • Buffs Curse damage and Evils units hard, with bonus damage per distinct element on your unit bar.
  • Free placement once another Evils unit is down; self-upgrades when other Evils upgrade.
  • Applies Despair and Destruction, strips shields, and hits harder into DoT targets.
  • Active The Power of Friends multiplies an Evils unit’s next damaging active by 4 onto the highest-HP enemy.
  • Every 3 waves it can Mind Control against you until you defeat it enough times, then it stabilizes with full crit chance.

If you like Evils comps with units such as Iscanur (Pride), plan the pass now. Team construction details are on Evils Teams.

Best manual XP: Warfront (~1,500 Pass XP)

Warfront is the best manual Battlepass XP method for most players. A clean clear is commonly valued around 1,500 Pass XP with short match times when you play on speed settings and focus the objective.

Practical Warfront routine:

  1. Queue a mode you can finish quickly (many players prefer compact 2v2-style matches).
  2. Raise game speed when available.
  3. Defend your base and farms with soldiers early.
  4. Upgrade Barracks until Swarm unlocks, then pressure the enemy base instead of turtling forever.
  5. Repeat. Consistency beats perfect play.

Wartorn Warfront missions can also pay large gem bundles per daily completions. Treat those as a twin goal with XP — see Gem Farming.

Best AFK XP: Pirate Dynasty

Pirate Dynasty is the best AFK-leaning pass method when your account can handle the route. Community farming notes for the current pass era point to long AFK sessions that can finish the track in roughly half a day of idle time if your setup is correct.

Typical AFK outline players use:

  • Unlock the strong modifier path after enough Pirate Dynasty wins (Carve Through style unlocks after a win threshold).
  • Run a high difficulty you can still survive AFK.
  • Park in a safe corner and keep the attack loop going.
  • Fix disconnects and inventory full errors before you leave the PC.

AFK is not zero setup. Test one supervised run before you walk away for hours. If your clear rate collapses, switch back to Warfront until your units improve.

Stack 3x XP from the Wrath Event

Every Wrath Event match grants 3x Battlepass XP on top of Wrath Coin payouts. That makes Shining Castle clears valuable even when you are primarily hunting coins for familiars. Learn Sin selection in Wrath Event so you stop failing wave 15. Normal pays 100 Wrath Coins; Hard pays 200 with 10x enemy health. Use Normal while learning, Hard when your board can finish reliably.

Apostles Vs Vanguards survival clears also grant Wrath Coins and can fill a session when you want a different mode. Still, for pure Tier 50 speed, Warfront and Pirate Dynasty remain the backbone.

Premium shiny versus free unit

LaneTier 50 reward
Free BattlepassWrath (Assault)
Premium BattlepassWrath (Assault) Shiny
Cosmetic PassWrath (Assault) skin

Shiny is cosmetic power fantasy for many players, but some modes and collectors treat shiny as a must. If you only care about the kit, free Tier 50 is enough. If you want shiny, buy premium early so every tier you already earned pays the premium column retroactively where the game allows claim — check the in-game pass UI after purchase.

Memoria: A Beast Plays at Tier 25

Do not ignore Tier 25. A Beast Plays is the season memoria tied to Wrath’s identity. Slotting the right memoria multiplies the Exclusive’s value. After you claim it, keep Memoria Shards flowing from the pass, codes, and event shop so you can level it.

Daily unlock schedule (example)

  1. Redeem new Codes.
  2. Clear Wartorn Warfront gem missions while farming XP.
  3. Run Wrath Event for 3x XP and coins.
  4. Fill remaining time with Pirate Dynasty AFK or more Warfront.
  5. Claim Battlepass tiers as they unlock; equip A Beast Plays at 25; claim Wrath at 50.

Use the checklist mindset on Tools if you want a printable XP plan.

What to do after you unlock Wrath

Mistakes that delay Tier 50

  • Playing only slow story stages for pass XP.
  • Buying premium expecting automatic XP.
  • Wiping on Wrath Event Hard and wasting the 3x window.
  • AFK on a Pirate Dynasty setup that cannot clear, then blaming the mode.
  • Ignoring Tier 25 memoria and only caring about the unit portrait.

New players should still skim Getting Started. Event coin sinks are in Wrath Event. Meta context sits on Tier List. Official Discord and Roblox links are on Links.

Stay on the XP plan every day the season is live. Tier 50 is a schedule problem more than a luck problem, and Wrath (Assault) rewards the accounts that treat the pass like a job until the Exclusive is claimed.
