Banner status: This guide covers the Ryuuou Series banner from mid-May 2026. The banner is still active but is no longer the current main focus. The Killer Machine Series Equipment Banner is now the primary banner with higher pull priority. The Ryuuou Staff assessment below remains accurate.

Quick Answer

Quick answer: the Ryuuou banner is a 4-star pull recommendation. The headline prize is Ryuuou Staff, an S-tier fire magic weapon. The armor pieces are solid but secondary. Skip if you already own Flame Sword and do not need a magic carry, because the fire element is already covered even though Flame Sword is physical and Ryuuou Staff is magic.

Equipment Priority Table

PriorityEquipmentRatingWhy it matters
JackpotRyuuou StaffS tierFirst fire-attribute staff in the game. Wide-range special costs only 5 gauge. Built-in charm resistance and Dragonlord damage bonus. Strongest dedicated magic weapon in the current pool.
HitRyuuou HelmADragonlord damage +12%, spell damage +6%, charm resistance +3%. Best helmet for magic builds in this banner.
HitRyuuou Robe TopADragonlord damage +12%, spell defense +10, charm resistance +3%. Strong body armor for mage survival.
HitRyuuou Robe BottomADragonlord resistance +12%, spell damage +6%, charm resistance +3%. Completes the set bonus direction.

The staff is the only piece that justifies deep gem spending. Armor is nice-to-have; do not chase armor at the cost of your gem plan.

Headline feature

New 3-star fire-attribute staff (first of its type)

When to pull

  • Your account lacks a strong magic carry.
  • You are rerolling and want a clear mage-first direction.
  • You need fire coverage and do not already own Flame Sword.

When to save

  • You already own Flame Sword and do not need fire magic specifically.
  • Your gems are committed to another banner route.
  • You already have Ice Staff or another working magic weapon.

Where the staff shines

Ryuuou Staff performs well in the Dragonlord Shrine and against Evil Hawk in Super Monster Rush. Its value is strongest in content that rewards fire magic and wide horizontal range. It is less universal than Roto Sword for general physical coverage, so treat it as a role-specific upgrade rather than a must-have for every account.

Multiplayer tips

  • The NORMAL clear is the most efficient ticket source for free-to-play players.
  • You can join public rooms or create a private room and invite friends.
  • The event is time-limited, so clear it early in the banner period to use free tickets before deciding on gem pulls.
  • Ryuuou Army Memory is a separate reward from the gacha; it is obtained directly from the event and can be equipped without pulling.

FAQ

Should I pull on the Ryuuou banner if I already have Flame Sword?

Consider skipping. Flame Sword already covers fire physical damage, so Ryuuou Staff only adds fire magic rather than filling a completely new element gap. Pull only if you specifically need a magic carry or want to build around the Ryuuou armor set.

Is Ryuuou Staff worth pulling as a new player?

Yes. Ryuuou Staff is S tier and the strongest dedicated magic weapon in the current pool. It is a clean reroll target for mage-oriented starts.

Should I chase Ryuuou armor pieces?

No. Armor is support value. Do not deep pull for armor alone. Treat matching armor as a bonus if it appears while pulling for the staff.

Where do I get free Ryuuou banner tickets?

Clear the 竜王軍奇襲作戦(マルチ) (NORMAL) event dungeon, open Hidden Location 3 chests with 5 normal keys, and check the Smash/Grow point exchange shop.

What is the Dragonlord Army Repel Battle?

It is a cooperative multiplayer event where you fight the Dragonlord Army alongside other players. Clearing NORMAL difficulty gives 10 Ryuuou banner tickets, and the event rewards include Ryuuou Army Memory and gems, obtained by collecting multiplayer points (マルチポイント).
