"Ultimate Arise Crossover: Beginner's Guide (Beta)"

*Arise Crossover* may seem straightforward at first glance—you gather Shadow units and attack non-retaliating enemies to strengthen your team. But as we delved deeper, we noticed even skilled players were puzzled about progression, leveling up, and choosing the right Shadows. If you're feeling lost, this guide is designed to help you navigate the game more effectively.

How Shadows Work in Arise Crossover

In *Arise Crossover*, each of the three islands features several recruitable Shadows and one powerful dungeon Shadow. Shadow types range from the weakest, **Soondoo**, available from the start, to the strongest, **Mifalcon**, found on Brum Island. However, it's the ranks that truly matter. **A Rank A Soondoo surpasses a Rank D Mifalcon in power**. Higher-ranked units can level up further; for instance, **a Rank D unit caps at Level 75**, while **an SS unit can reach Level 200**. Ultimately, your goal would be to assemble a team of four SS-ranked Mifalcons, but the journey to get there is where the real fun begins.

Arise Crossover Dungeon Guide

**Dungeon Portals** in *Arise Crossover* spawn every 30 minutes and remain active for 15 minutes. Even if you enter a dungeon just before a portal closes, you can complete it fully. Portals appear at random locations on each island with varying difficulty ranks.

Start by forming a team of **Rank D units** and tackle a Rank D or C dungeon on Leveling Island. This will help you build a solid group and possibly recruit a rare Shadow. **Dungeons are crucial for recruiting Rare and higher-than-Rank C common units**.

When a portal spawns, **go for it**. Even with a weaker team, position yourself by the portal and wait for others to join. Many players can solo dungeons and are often willing to help others, boosting them through to recruit higher-ranking Shadows. **This cooperative approach is key to progressing in *Arise Crossover***. We benefited from such kindness when a player with Rank C units helped us through a Rank A dungeon, allowing us to recruit Rank A units and eventually reach the end game. We encourage you to pay it forward by assisting others in similar ways.

Arise Crossover Weapons

During the Beta phase, **player weapons are largely ineffective**. They might offer a slight advantage early on, but their impact diminishes quickly. The **Iron Kando Blade**, the most powerful common weapon, costs 60 million and deals 516,1K damage, while your units can deal 200 to 400 million. Unless you're willing to spend heavily, it's best to save your money until the game receives updates that might enhance weapon utility.

How to Get a Mount in Arise Crossover

Similar to dungeons, **wild mounts spawn every 15 minutes**, and only one player can attempt to claim each mount. A server-wide message alerts players to new spawns, though you won't always be notified if someone else claims it or if it disappears.

Mounts can appear in **six different locations**: on the back of main islands or on smaller side islands between major ones. Check the developer's map for specific spawn points.

You can't claim the same mount more than once, and capturing attempts can fail. **Flying mounts are the rarest**, with a 10% spawn chance, while **ground mounts are more common**, and **water mounts are available for purchase from the Boat Shop NPC**.

To acquire a mount, keep an eye out for the server message and race to the six potential spawn locations. While mounts aren't essential for game progression, a flying mount can significantly ease travel. We're still on the hunt for our flying mount, and we wish you luck in your pursuit.

That covers the essentials for now. As *Arise Crossover* evolves with new updates, we'll continue to refine this guide. In the meantime, don't forget to check out *Arise Crossover* codes for some free rewards.
