Anime Vanguards Update 8.5: A Complete Guide to Unlocking Broly and Stock

Update 8.5 has just dropped in Anime Vanguards, and it’s brought one of the most legendary and powerful Saiyans in anime history to the game: the one and only Broly! But if you want to add this powerhouse to your team, you won’t find him in a simple gacha roll. Unlocking Broly is a multi-step, epic quest chain that will test your skill, your patience, and your dedication as a Vanguard.

Alongside this massive new quest, the update also adds another powerful unit, “Stock,” as the new grand prize for the World Lines game mode. This guide is your ultimate resource for acquiring all the new units in Update 8.5. We will provide a complete, step-by-step walkthrough of the entire Broly questline, from finding the initial quest item to the final battle to save him, as well as explaining how to get the new World Lines reward.

How to Unlock “Stock”

Let’s start with the more straightforward of the two new units. “Stock” has been added to the game as the new ultimate reward for the challenging World Lines game mode.

To unlock this unit, you must prove your mastery by reaching Floor 50 of the World Lines. This is a true endgame grind designed for veteran players. You will need to assemble your strongest possible teams, optimize your strategies, and push through the increasingly difficult floors of this challenging game mode. Stock is a prestigious reward that signals a player’s true dedication and mastery of the game.

The Legendary Saiyan: A Complete Broly Quest Walkthrough

Unlocking Broly is a long and rewarding journey that feels like an entire story arc in itself. It is a multi-stage quest that requires you to gather specific units, complete difficult challenges, and finally, recreate an iconic moment to save the legendary Saiyan. Here is every step you need to take.

Step 1: Find the Remote Control in the Frozen Volcano

Your epic quest begins not with a conversation, but with a lucky drop. To start the Broly questline, you must repeatedly play the “Frozen Volcano” dungeon.

Inside this dungeon, there is a 10% chance for a special quest item, a Red Remote, to drop from an enemy or a boss. This item is the key to the entire quest. You will need to be patient and grind the Frozen Volcano dungeon until this remote drops for you.

Step 2: Assemble the Iconic Trio

Once you have the Red Remote, it will give you your first major task: you must acquire three specific, iconic characters. These are Goku, Frieza, and Vegeta.

  • Goku & Frieza: These two are the most straightforward part of this step. Both Goku and Frieza can be obtained by summoning on the main gacha banner. You will need to rely on your gacha luck or save up your pity to acquire them.
  • Vegeta (The Tricky One): This is where the quest gets more complex. To obtain Vegeta, you cannot simply pull him from the banner. You must follow a very specific, hidden method:
    1. First, you must acquire Frieza from the banner.
    2. Next, you must evolve Frieza to his next powerful form.
    3. Once Frieza is evolved, you must put him as the only unit in your entire team.
    4. With only your evolved Frieza, you must enter and successfully complete the Frozen Volcano dungeon solo.
    5. Upon successful completion of the solo run, you have a 20% chance to be rewarded with the Vegeta unit. You may need to complete this solo challenge multiple times before you are lucky enough to get him.

Step 3: Evolve and Power Up

With Goku, Frieza, and Vegeta finally in your possession, the next step is to power them up. The quest will not progress until you evolve all three of these units to their next respective forms. Head to your evolution chamber and get them ready for the trials ahead.

Step 4: The Dungeon Grind

Once your trio of evolved warriors is ready, the quest will update with a new, straightforward but time-consuming task. You must now prove your mastery of the event’s location by successfully completing the Frozen Volcano dungeon 10 times. It’s recommended to do this with a strong, efficient team to get through this step as quickly as possible.

Step 5: The Sacrifice

After your tenth clear, the quest will update again, this time with a demand for a sacrifice. The quest objective will specify a certain number of units of a specific type that you must sacrifice to proceed. This is a good time to clear out your character box of any duplicate or unwanted units that match the required type.

Step 6: The Frieza Hunt

With your sacrifice complete, you will be given a new combat objective. You must now hunt down and defeat 10 Friezas. These Friezas can likely be found as enemies within the Frozen Volcano dungeon, so it’s time to head back into the icy battlefield for this penultimate step.

Step 7: The Final Battle – Save Broly!

This is the final, climactic step of the quest. You must now recreate an iconic Dragon Ball moment to save the legendary Saiyan himself.

  1. Enter the Frozen Volcano dungeon one last time.
  2. Your objective inside the dungeon is to find and collect all seven Dragon Balls, which will be hidden throughout the map.
  3. Once you have successfully collected all seven Dragon Balls, a final encounter will be triggered where you must save Broly. This is expected to be a challenging boss fight, where you may have to protect Broly from waves of powerful enemies or free him from the control of another villain.

Upon successfully completing this final trial and saving him from his fate, the mighty Broly will be unlocked and added to your collection of units.

Unlocking Broly is a long and challenging but incredibly rewarding quest that will take you on a journey through many of the game’s core mechanics. Follow this guide, assemble your team, and get ready to add the legendary power of Broly to your vanguard!
