Re:AOPG Mythical Awakening Order
Which Mythical fruit to awaken first, the cheapest stone path, and the right time to commit.
Awakening Stones are the rarest drop in Re:AOPG, and Mythical Awakening costs 100 stones per fruit. Pick the wrong order and you’ll burn a month of grinding on a fruit you later replace. This page is the priority list — which Mythical to awaken first, second, third — and the cheapest route to grind stones.
Awakening Stone Tiers
| Tier | Stones per Awaken | Recommended for |
|---|---|---|
| Mythical | 100 | Phoenix, Dragon, Venom, Shadow, Light, Dark, Sand, Magma, Flame, Ice, Gravity, Ope, Quake, String, Mochi, Rubber, Soul, Mammoth, Leopard |
| Legendary | 60 | Buddha, Spirit, Control, Pain, Barrier |
| Rare | 30 | Smoke, Sand (Common tier version), Falcon, Spike |
| Uncommon | 15 | Rubber (Common tier), Chop, Spring, Bomb |
| Common | 5 | Default starter fruits |
Mythical is the only tier where you must spend 100 stones per fruit. The total grind from 0 to a fully Mythical build is 300-500 stones, depending on your meta choice. The full tier breakdown is on the Devil Fruits tier list.
Recommended Awakening Order
This is the order veterans follow to maximize combat value at every stone spent:
- Dragon (100 stones) — best all-rounder. Range + damage + mobility + AoE clear. Use it from Sea 2 through Multiverse Sea.
- Magma (100 stones) — best AoE farmer. Required for the meta Revolutionary Base farming route.
- Light (100 stones) — best PvP burst. Kills in two combos at end-game.
- Phoenix (100 stones) — best support/healing. The defensive Awakening means you solo raids without dying.
- Venom (100 stones) — best DoT and boss shred. Required for raid DPS check.
- Shadow (100 stones) — best mobility + scaling. End-game PvP.
- Soul (100 stones) — best PvE scaling. Latest patch buff.
This 7-fruit grind takes 6-8 weeks for active players. The detailed fruit showcases are on the Mythical fruits guide.
Why Dragon First
Dragon is the right first Mythical Awakening because:
- It trivializes Second Sea content (Colosseum, Jailer, Magma NPC).
- The range + AoE combo makes Gem farming 3× faster.
- You unlock the Dragon Awakened title (+5% damage) early.
- It transitions cleanly into Multiverse Sea where Dragon remains top-tier.
Most veterans skip Awakening their starter Mythical (often Sand or Rubber) and go straight for Dragon. The trade ladder for Mythical rerolls is on the Trading values page.
Why Magma Second
Magma is the right second pick because:
- Required for Best Beli farming route at Revolutionary Base.
- AoE clears Sea 2 Colosseum waves in under 30 seconds.
- Sets up the Mammoth + Magma hybrid build for Boss rush mode.
Magma’s Awakened form (v2) doubles the lava pool radius and adds a DoT tick. It’s the cleanest power spike in the game for mid-game players.
Stone Grinding Routes
You need 100 stones per Mythical. The fastest routes:
| Route | Stones/hour | Sea | Build |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mihawk raid | 4-6 | 3 | Dragon + Godhuman + True Gryphon |
| Shadow Ruler’s Castle (Elbaf raid) | 6-8 | 3 | Dragon + Godhuman + True Gryphon |
| World Boss rotation | 3-5 | 3 | Mammoth + Magma + Cyborg V2 |
| Poneglyph spawns | 1-2 stones per spawn | Any | Active play |
| Sea Beast kills | 1 per 5 kills | 2-3 | Dragon + Soru + Mink |
Stack stones from all four sources. The Mihawk + World Boss combo yields the highest sustained rate (7-11 stones/hour). The full Mihawk strategy is on the How to defeat Mihawk guide.
Awakening Trainer Location
The Awakening Trainer is at Onigashima Island in Sea 3. Prerequisites:
- Level 300+.
- Sea 3 entry chain cleared (see Third Sea page).
- Andre NPC questline complete.
- 100 Awakening Stones in inventory.
Talk to the trainer, select your fruit, confirm the Awakening. The fruit gets a V2 visual effect and a stat boost. Re-Awakening (V3) requires 250 stones and a Fruit Reset from the Logue Town NPC.
Common Mistakes
- Awakening Sand/Rubber first — they’re starter Mythicals but Dragon or Magma outperform them at the same stone cost.
- Awakening a Mythical you won’t use — re-Awakening costs a Fruit Reset (5M Beli at Logue Town).
- Skipping the Mihawk raid — it’s the highest sustained stone source.
- Trading Mythicals for reroll tokens — Mythical Awakening always beats a Common reroll token.
Active Codes for Awakening
Several codes accelerate the Awakening grind:
QOL!— 100 Poneglyphs (Mythical reroll fuel).ElbafHype!— 100 Poneglyphs.E.G.O.— 1× Butterfly (Awakening shard).BindingVow— 25 Poneglyphs.Soul Awk— Mythical Awakening shard.
The full list is on the Working codes page.
Mythical Tier Comparison
If you’re undecided between two Mythicals, the damage comparison is:
| Mythical | Single-target | AoE | Mobility | PvP tier | PvE tier |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dragon | S | S | A | A | S |
| Phoenix | A | B | B | B | S |
| Venom | S | A | B | A | S |
| Shadow | A | B | S | S | A |
| Light | S | B | A | S | A |
| Magma | A | S | C | B | S |
| Gravity | A | A | B | A | A |
Dragon is the safest first pick. Phoenix is the safest if you mostly PvE. Shadow is the PvP-lord pick. The full tier list is on the Devil Fruits tier list.
