Battle Minigames Beginner Loadout Guide

Your first shop purchases in Battle Minigames define how quickly you progress from lobby fodder to competitive threat. Developer stardragonf's coin economy rewards smart spending — the right weapon and gear combination for your playstyle costs less than blindly saving for S-tier items while struggling with default equipment.

This beginner loadout guide recommends purchase order after redeeming all active codes. Most new accounts enter the shop with eight hundred to over twelve hundred coins depending on which milestone codes remain active. That budget skips starter-tier weapons entirely and jumps straight to competitive A-tier options.

Every recommendation below uses verified prices from the in-game shop. Adjust your plan if prices change after a balance patch — check our weapons and gear item pages for current values before spending.

Step One — Redeem Every Code

Before buying anything, open Settings on the left side and redeem all active codes from our codes page. Codes like 75KLIKES, 40KLIKES, and 30KLIKES stack into a substantial starting balance. Skipping this step leaves hundreds of free coins unclaimed.

Count your total balance after redemption. If you hold six hundred or more coins, proceed directly to weapon purchase. If you hold four hundred to five hundred, prioritize Boxing Gloves and earn the remaining coins through two or three round placements.

Best First Weapon — Cutlass or Boxing Gloves

Cutlass at six hundred coins is the most recommended first weapon. It delivers medium-high damage with fast swing speed — fast enough to win trades against default Dagger and Hook users, strong enough to compete against other A-tier weapons while you learn parry and roll timing.

Boxing Gloves at four hundred coins suit aggressive close-range players. They offer the fastest attack speed in the game, excelling in elimination rounds where rapid flurries overwhelm opponents who have not mastered F parries. The tradeoff is lower per-hit damage — you must maintain pressure constantly.

Avoid buying Falchion Sword, Rapier, or Dagger unless you cannot afford better options. These budget weapons delay your competitive timeline by one hundred to four hundred coins. Codes exist specifically so new players skip this tier entirely.

Best First Gear — Speed Boots

Speed Boots at five hundred coins grant a sprint speed boost essential for survival rounds and coin-collection modes. After buying your first weapon, save toward Speed Boots as your first gear purchase unless you exclusively play elimination modes.

Leather Vest at two hundred coins is an acceptable budget alternative if you cannot afford Speed Boots yet. It provides light armor that extends survivability in brawls while you grind remaining coins for the S-tier mobility investment.

Skip Starter Cape and Training Weights for your first session. Starter Cape is cosmetic only. Training Weights offer a minor damage boost that does not compare to the value of a real weapon upgrade or Speed Boots mobility.

Recommended Beginner Loadout Paths

Balanced Path: Redeem codes → Cutlass (600) → Speed Boots (500) → save for Crusader Sword (850). This path handles every minigame mode competently and transitions smoothly into S-tier.

Aggressive Path: Redeem codes → Boxing Gloves (400) → Agility Band (350) → Speed Boots (500). Optimized for close-range elimination and flurry combat with reduced roll cooldown.

Defensive Path: Redeem codes → Cutlass (600) → Iron Chestplate (450) → save for Crusader Sword. Prioritizes surviving trades in team modes and crowded free-for-all brawls.

• Budget Starter — Boxing Gloves + Leather Vest (~600 coins total)
• Balanced Starter — Cutlass + Speed Boots (~1100 coins total)
• Aggressive Starter — Boxing Gloves + Agility Band (~750 coins total)
• Defensive Starter — Cutlass + Iron Chestplate (~1050 coins total)

What to Save For Next

Crusader Sword at eight hundred fifty coins is the first S-tier weapon most players should target. It offers high damage with medium speed — a strict upgrade from Cutlass in nearly every scenario once you understand combat fundamentals.

Coin Multiplier Charm at six hundred coins becomes worthwhile after your core weapon and Speed Boots are equipped. It accelerates future purchases for players who session daily.

Double Battle Axe and Scythe are late-game investments at twelve hundred and nine hundred fifty coins respectively. Save for these only after mastering heavy attack R timing and map positioning — expensive weapons do not compensate for weak mechanics.
