Mastering Raids in Blox Fruits: Complete Guide to Awaken Your Fruit
By Paquito Jr Conde | May 5, 2025

Raids are a key part of progressing your character and awakening fruits in Blox Fruits. Whether you're a seasoned player or a newcomer, this guide has everything you need to succeed in raids and unlock powerful new abilities!
🔥 What Are Raids in Blox Fruits?
Raids are PvE (Player vs Environment) events where you team up with up to three other players to fight waves of NPC enemies across different islands. You'll have 15 minutes to complete each raid, and the main goal is to awaken your fruit, making it significantly stronger.
âś… Requirements to Start a Raid
- Level Requirement: You need to be at least level 1100 to participate in raids.
- Access to the Second or Third Sea: Raids are available at the Raid Laboratory on Hot and Cold Island (Second Sea) or Castle on the Sea (Third Sea).
- Microchip or Chip: You'll need a Raid Microchip to start a raid. You can obtain one by:
- Purchasing it from the Scientist NPC at the raid lab for 100,000 Beli (only if you're using the same fruit as the raid you're doing).
- Trading 100 Fragments with the Mysterious Scientist if you're using a different fruit.
- Receiving one free chip every hour.
- Getting it by defeating sea beasts or participating in other in-game events.
📍 How to Start a Raid
- Head to Hot and Cold Island (Second Sea) or Castle on the Sea (Third Sea).
- Enter the Raid Laboratory.
- Speak to the Scientist NPC or Mysterious Scientist to select a raid type and pay the required fee.
- Step onto the raid platform with up to 3 other players.
- You will be teleported to the raid arena.
🔥 Types of Raids (Elemental & Others)
Each raid corresponds to a specific fruit. You can only awaken a fruit by completing its corresponding raid:
Raid Type | Required Fruit | Recommended Level |
---|---|---|
Flame | Flame Fruit | 1100+ |
Ice | Ice Fruit | 1100+ |
Light | Light Fruit | 1100+ |
Magma | Magma Fruit | 1100+ |
Buddha | Buddha Fruit | 1100+ |
String | String Fruit | 1100+ |
Rumble | Rumble Fruit | 1100+ |
Dark | Dark Fruit | 1100+ |
Phoenix | Phoenix Fruit | 1100+ |
🎯 Raid Mechanics
During a raid, you'll be taken to an arena with five islands, each featuring waves of enemies. The goal is to defeat all enemies and then face the boss on the final island, all within 15 minutes. If you die, you'll be sent back to the lab unless revived by a Phoenix user.
đź’Ž Rewards for Completing a Raid
- Fragments: Earn up to 1,000 fragments per raid.
- Awakening Moves: If your fruit is eligible and you're using it during the raid, you'll unlock one awakened move after completion.
- Experience & Mastery: Defeating enemies grants EXP and increases your fruit and weapon mastery.
đź§ Tips for Raiding Successfully
- Include Buddha or Phoenix users for tanking and healing.
- Raids are tough to solo, so bring a team – especially if you're not using Buddha or Magma.
- Maximize your Observation Haki and Buso Haki to improve your defenses.
- Use elemental immunity (from Elemental fruits) to avoid damage from normal attacks.
- Equip useful gear and accessories like:
- Ghoul Mask
- Dark Coat
- Flame Cloak
- Learn to dodge enemy AoE attacks and keep moving to stay safe.
⚠️ Important Notes
- You cannot switch fruits during a raid.
- Make sure you're using the fruit you want to awaken for the raid.
- If you disconnect or die before the boss, the raid ends for you.
- Some fruits require multiple raids to awaken all their moves. For example, Light Fruit requires five raids to fully awaken.
