Dragon Soul Roblox How to Get Great Ape Form

To get the Great Ape form in Dragon Soul on Roblox, reach level 900, obtain a Saiyan Tail from the Great Ape world boss, and defeat Vegeta 30 times across 15 days, or buy the Great Ape gamepass directly.

Requirements to Unlock Great Ape

Unlocking Great Ape through regular gameplay requires meeting level criteria and securing a rare accessory before starting a prolonged combat trial. The game tracks your progression through specific prerequisites:

  • Level requirement: Level 900 or higher.
  • Required accessory: Saiyan Tail equipped to your character.
  • Combat challenge: 30 separate duel victories against the NPC Vegeta.
  • Alternative shortcut: Owning the Great Ape Form gamepass in the shop.

Players who decide to avoid the Robux purchase must progress through two stages: farming the world boss in the Desert Wasteland to obtain the tail drop, and then completing daily duels against Vegeta.

Farming the Saiyan Tail

The first physical requirement is securing the Saiyan Tail from the Great Ape world boss. This boss spawns on the plateau in the Ape Wastelands, situated north of the Great Plains and Desert Wasteland areas.

The Great Ape spawns once every hour on a server timer. Players can also immediately summon the boss by speaking to the spawner NPC near the book on the plateau for 5 Robux. The boss possesses 2.5 million HP and uses heavy physical stomps alongside the long-range Primal Beam.

To qualify for loot drops when the boss falls, you must deal at least 100,000 damage during the encounter. The Saiyan Tail is a rare drop from this pool, possessing an estimated drop rate between 0.3% and 1%. Equipping builds that feature high-damage moves such as Meteor, Giant Storm, or Super Ki Explosion allows you to hit the 100,000 damage threshold quickly. Once acquired, the Saiyan Tail must be placed into your accessory slot via your character inventory.

Defeating Vegeta 30 Times

After equipping the Saiyan Tail, head down from the plateau to locate Vegeta in the Desert Wasteland. Speaking to him initiates a duel to prove your control over your Saiyan heritage.

You must defeat Vegeta a total of 30 times to claim the form. Two mechanical restrictions dictate how quickly you can complete this training:

  1. A strict 12-hour cooldown applies after every victory. You cannot bypass this timer with Senzu beans, meaning the fastest possible completion time through natural grinding is 15 consecutive days if you fight him twice every 24 hours.
  2. Vegeta gains increased stats and health after each defeat, making later fights considerably more difficult than early encounters.

Once you deliver the final blow on the 30th fight, the Great Ape transformation unlocks directly in your skills menu.

Great Ape Form Gamepass Alternative

Players who want to bypass the grinding loop can purchase the Great Ape Form gamepass from the in-game store. The standard shop price is 14,999 Robux, though discounts frequently list it between 9,999 and 12,000 Robux.

Purchasing the gamepass provides immediate access without completing the 30 Vegeta duels:

  • Delivers the Saiyan Tail directly to your inventory.
  • Grants immediate access to the Great Ape transformation, provided your character meets the level 900 requirement.
  • Grants a permanent 2x Great Ape mastery rate multiplier.
  • Enables 2,000 Zeni earnings for every player kill scored while transformed.
  • Applies a 90-minute global cooldown for transformation, with a restriction limiting servers to one player-controlled Great Ape at a time.

Great Ape Mastery Tiers and Stat Progression

The Great Ape form progresses through five distinct mastery tiers. Leveling your form mastery increases your maximum health pool and extends your active transformation duration.

Tier NameHealth PoolTransformation DurationKey Unlock or Benefit
Tier 1: Rampage2.5 Million HP30 MinutesBase raid boss moveset and 2,000 Zeni per player kill
Tier 2: Ekari3.25 Million HP35 MinutesGrants the Ekari technique upon reaching this rank
Tier 3: Tamed4.2 Million HP40 MinutesIncreased health pool and duration scaling
Tier 4: Controlled5.5 Million HP45 MinutesEnhanced baseline damage scaling and durability
Tier 5: Golden6.4 Million HP50 MinutesGolden fur visual model and enhanced ability tracking

Advancing past Tier 1 unlocks Ekari, which offers a secondary technique boost for your character. Mastering the form to Tier 5 unlocks the Golden Ape state, which widens the hit radius of Power Beam and disables flight on nearby enemies struck by the enhanced Roar ability.

Great Ape Combat Moveset

When transforming, your standard skill layout is replaced by dedicated boss mechanics:

  • M1 String: A heavy punch sequence consisting of a right strike, left strike, and an arm flail that inflicts high physical damage to ground targets.
  • Power Beam: A long-range mouth blast aimed directly at your reticle, dealing heavy damage across narrow firing corridors.
  • Roar: An area-of-effect shockwave that disrupts enemy momentum and damages players standing within close range of your chest.
  • Key Back Step: A defensive hop backwards that releases an explosive burst behind your back to punish players attacking your blind spot.
  • Lunge: A forward leap used to close distance across open terrain and strike grounded opponents.

Controlling the Great Ape involves significant turning delay and weight simulation. Managing camera angles and relying on wide-sweeping moves like Roar and Key Back Step prevents agile players from lingering in your blind spots during combat. For players aiming to optimize their battle readiness before taking on the boss grind, checking best skills and using fast travel to reach the wasteland helps streamline each attempt.
