Complete GloryBound Beginner’s Guide – Classes, Skills & More

TLDR:

1. Gladiator is the best class for beginners, thanks to its defensive playstyle, while Lancer has the highest base damage, Archer excels at ranged combat, and Berserker specializes in breaking enemy armor.
2. Invest in all four skill trees: Gladius, Scutum, Fortuna, and Numen to improve damage, survivability, Blessings, and rewards. Prioritize Fortuna to earn more Cash and improve chest rewards.
3. Farm Cash through Survival Colosseum runs, daily and weekly quests, and objective waves. Use your earnings to purchase better chests and roll for powerful Blessings.
4. Upgrade your equipment and get powerful Blessings to improve your combat performance. Rebirth later to gain permanent damage buffs.

GloryBound is a Roblox gladiator-themed experience where you enter the Colosseum, battle waves of dangerous enemies, defeat powerful bosses, and upgrade your character to become a stronger warrior. Moreover, there are various progression systems, and understanding them can be confusing if you are new to the game. So, to help you out, here’s a complete GloryBound Beginner’s Guide to help you get started.

What Are the Best Classes in GloryBound?

GloryBound currently has 4 classes, each with a different weapon and combat role. Your choice should depend on whether you prefer close-range defence, extended melee attacks, or ranged damage. Below, we’ve listed all four available classes in GloryBound.

• Gladiator
• Lancer
• Archer
• Berserker

Gladiator is the best class for Beginners, as you can learn enemy attack patterns using it. Its defensive playstyle is also useful when facing bosses and surviving crowded waves. However, Lancer is the best for balanced combat, as it has the highest base damage and you can attack enemies without getting as close as a Gladiator.

Meanwhile, Archer is the best for Ranged Combat, as it uses a bow to attack enemies from a distance. It is useful for those who prefer kiting and dealing consistent damage. Likewise, Berserker is yet another strong class, as it can break through enemy armor. However, the class costs 310 Robux or level 60 to unlock.

Best Skill Tree Builds for Every Class in GloryBound

The skill tree is an important part of character progression. Before accessing its four main branches, you must unlock Gladiator's Oath, which costs one skill point and provides +2% damage and +3% maximum health. 

Once unlocked, you will gain access to Gladius, Scutum, Fortuna, and Numen paths. For each skill path, you can invest up to 20 skill points. So, below, we’ve listed all the best Skill Tree Builds for every class in GloryBound.

Class	Gladius	Numen	Scutum	Fortuna
Gladiator	Sharpened Edge – 5 Points Quick Hands – 5 Points Keen Eye – 3 Points Beast Hunter – 2 Points Giant Slayer – 3 Points Wrath of Mars – 2 Points	Inner Fire – 5 Points Swift Rites – 3 Points Quick Recall – 3 Points Arcane Might – 3 Points Divine Favor – 3 Points Focused Mind – 2 Points Will of the Gods – 1 Point	Iron Skin – 5 Points Hardened – 5 Points Vigor – 3 Points Unyielding – 3 Points Blood Pact – 3 Points Unbreakable – 1 Point	Coin Purse – 5 Points Plunder – 5 Points Golden Touch – 3 Points Midas Touch – 1 Point Lucky Coin – 3 Points Treasure Hunter – 3 Points
Lancer	Sharpened Edge – 5 Points Quick Hands – 5 Points Keen Eye – 5 Points Giant Slayer – 3 Points Sunder – 2 Points	Inner Fire – 5 Points Arcane Might – 3 Points Divine Favor – 3 Points Focused Mind – 5 Points Omen of Ruin – 3 Points Will of the Gods – 1 Point	Iron Skin – 3 Points Hardened – 5 Points Light Step – 5 Points Unyielding – 3 Points Phantom Step – 3 Points Blood Pact – 1 Point	Coin Purse – 5 Points Plunder – 5 Points Scholar – 5 Points Veteran's Wisdom – 3 Points Midas Touch – 1 Point Swift Sandals – 1 Point

For the Gladiator and Lancer class, prioritise Scutum to improve survivability, followed by Gladius for additional offensive pressure. Likewise, for Archer, prioritise Gladius for damage and Scutum for survivability. However, prioritise Fortuna for all classes, as it boosts your overall Match Cash and improves odds of getting better chests.

Best Ways to Farm Cash in GloryBound

Cash is important because it helps you unlock blessings and get chests. Your best approach is to play the Survival Colosseum runs and complete daily and weekly quests. This way, you can steadily store up some cash and use it later for purchasing Epic chests and rolling for better blessings.

Moreover, while you are playing the Colosseum, pay attention to the objective banner because certain rounds reward completing tasks rather than simply eliminating enemies. Here are some of the best ways to farm Cash in GloryBound.

• Complete Colosseum Rounds - Progress through as many waves as possible to collect rewards.
• Prioritise Objectives - Treasure Hunt is an objective wave inside Colosseum Runs and requires you to collect scattered Cash from the Colosseum. So, make sure you collect as much as you can.
• Play with a squad - Playing in a four-player squad can help you survive longer and clear more waves, which increases your chances of earning more Cash.
• Upgrade Fortuna Nodes - To increase your chances of receiving more Cash, prioritise node upgrades on the Fortuna Skill Tree. By doing so, you will significantly boost the amount of Cash you receive after every match.

How to Get Chests in GloryBound?

Chests are one of the most useful ways to obtain better weapons and armour. GloryBound features several equipment rarities, extending from Common to Mythic. Higher-rarity equipment can provide better stat bonuses and help you survive more difficult encounters. 

The primary way of getting chests is from the Colosseum dungeon. Clearing certain waves rewards you with Cash and sometimes with chests. Likewise, you can also receive chests by redeeming codes. However, you can also buy different types of chests from the Chest Merchant in the Vault area near spawn. Below, we’ve listed all the chests and their costs.

Chest	Rarity	Drop Chance
Common Chest	Common - 50% Uncommon - 25% Rare - 25%	Armor - 75% Weapon - 25%
Rare Chest	Rare - 75% Epic - 25%	Armor - 67% Weapon - 33%
Epic Chest	Epic - 70% Legendary - 25% Mythic - 5%	Armor - 60% Weapon - 40%

After opening a chest, a reward pop-up displays the equipment and its stats. So, make sure to check the bonuses before clicking Equip. For example, the Centurion Lorica chestplate provides +4 Vitality and +20 Max HP, which is a useful early defensive upgrade.

How To Rebirth in GloryBound?

Rebirth is a late-game progression mechanic that grants permanent damage buffs and increases your training multiplier and strength cap. However, before attempting it, make sure you have trained your character and met the level requirements. Once you have met the prerequisites, follow the steps below.

1. First, go to the Gym area and find the Rebirth Shrine. It is also called the Shrine of Mars.
2. After that, train your Strength at the gym's bench-press station until you reach the required Strength threshold.
3. Once you have met the requirements, interact with the shrine and confirm the rebirth.

NOTE: Rebirthing resets your Strength progression, but your equipment, skill-tree investments, and Blessings do not reset.

Best Blessings for Each Class in GloryBound

Blessings are additional abilities that complement your build and can improve your performance during Colosseum runs. Below, we’ve provided a table listing the top 5 blessings in GloryBound and the reasoning.

Blessing	Rarity	Reason	Best Class
Wings of the Inferno	Secret	One of the rarest Blessings. A top priority for late game trials because of DPS.	Gladiator
Seraph of the Sun	Secret	Huge AoE and Burst damage DPS on trigger.	Archer
Wrath of Jupiter	Mythic	A strong high-rarity Blessing and ideal for killing high HP bosses and mobs	Lancer
Judgement of Sol	Mythic	Another powerful Mythic option worth pursuing for its AoE potential	Gladiator
Phoenix Dash	Legendary	A mobility-focused blessing that can be used for repositioning as well as deal damage in a path.	Gladiator/Berserker
