Arcane101 Progression Guide: Route, Bosses and Early Milestones

Quick answer

Arcane101's progression route runs across 8 lands and 11 bosses, starting at Bramblehorn in the Forest and ending with the Abyssal Warden at the bottom of the raid. The early milestones to hit first are finishing your first quest, clearing the Forest, owning a mount and hatching a pet — each is a one-time badge.

• First Lesson — finish your first quest
• Bramble Breaker — clear the Forest, the first land on the route
• Saddled Up — own a mount
• Companion — hatch a pet

The route: 8 lands and 11 bosses

Arcane101's world progression is one long climb: eight lands to cross and eleven bosses standing along the way. The run starts at Bramblehorn in the Forest and ends at the Abyssal Warden, who waits at the bottom of the raid. The game names the start and the finish of that journey, but not every stop in between — the dedicated lands, bosses and raid pages go deeper on the individual stops, including Bramblehorn and the Abyssal Warden themselves.

The way you fight through it stays the same from start to finish. Arcane101 is a co-op card RPG for 1–5 players with turn-based spell combat: you choose one of eight magic schools, build your own deck from more than 150 spells, and take the bosses on one duel at a time, solo or with up to four other players.

Roadmap

1. 1

   Clear the tutorial and your first quest

   Learn the basics and bank the First Lesson badge. The tutorial also has to be cleared before the code redemption screen will work.

   • Finish the tutorial
   • Finish your first quest for the First Lesson badge
2. 2

   Clear the Forest

   Defeat Bramblehorn, the first boss on the route, and finish the first of the eight lands for the Bramble Breaker badge.

   • Beat Bramblehorn in the Forest
   • Earn the Bramble Breaker badge
3. 3

   Cross the remaining lands

   Fight through the rest of the eight lands and their bosses on the way toward the raid.

   • Work through each land's bosses
   • Follow the lands and bosses guides for what lies between
4. 4

   Reach the bottom of the raid

   Defeat the Abyssal Warden, the final boss at the end of the route.

   • Take on the Abyssal Warden at the bottom of the raid

Where you start: the Forest and Bramblehorn

The Forest is the first land on the route, and Bramblehorn is the boss waiting in it. Clearing the Forest matters twice over: it is the first leg of the eight-land journey, and finishing it also earns the Bramble Breaker badge, one of the game's early milestones.

Early milestones to hit first

Early progress in Arcane101 shows up as one-time Roblox badges, and four of them line up directly with the start of the game:

The game's badge tracker shows these alongside award counts, but the counts only measure how many players have earned each badge — they don't set a required order, so you can pick them up as your run allows. There is still a natural sequence to follow: the tutorial and your first quest come first, clearing the Forest is the first leg of the land route, and the mount and pet badges arrive as you build up the between-fight systems below.

Between fights: pets, mounts, trading and the AFK World

Progression is not only combat. Between fights you can raise a pet, ride a mount, trade with other players, or rest in the AFK World. Two of the early badges come straight out of these systems — hatching a pet earns Companion, and owning a mount earns Saddled Up. The pets, mounts and AFK World pages cover each system in more detail.

Clear the tutorial before redeeming codes

One restriction is worth knowing early: the code redemption screen won't do anything until you have cleared the tutorial. Once that is out of the way, the currently working codes are maintained on the Arcane101 codes page.
