# Saiyan — Anime Apocalypse Ability

> Inspired by **Dragon Ball Z — Goku (Super Saiyan / Ultra Instinct)**.

**Tier:** S · **Rarity:** supreme · **Drop rate:** 0.1%
**Credibility:** tier_1_discord · **As of:** 2026-05-13

## Kit

Signature: Spirit Bomb. Skills — m1: 8 hits · z: 225 direct / 140 radius · x: 375 max · c: 22×10 = 220 · g: 45×26 = 1170 · v: +15% DMG + speed buff. Passive: Ultra Instinct grants one revive on death — the only revive-passive ability in the game.

## Notes

**Saiyan** is the only **Supreme** rarity ability in the game at a **0.1% drop rate** — the rarest non-raid pull, and the consensus top revival pick across all five third-party tier lists (FRVR, Beebom, Roonby, AllThings, Sportskeeda).

## Canonical IP attribution

Saiyan is internally referred to as **Goku** — the *Dragon Ball Z* protagonist. This is confirmed by:

- The official `❔ faq` Discord channel — _Best Traits on Abilities_ thread by Rolasyum (2026-05-10) explicitly lists "Saiyan / Goku" under the *Support (no trait)* category
- The in-game title **Super Saiyan** (+5% DMG) is unlocked by obtaining Saiyan in spins
- The signature *Spirit Bomb* / *Kamehameha* / *Ki Blast* / *Fist Barrage* skill names are direct DBZ references
- The passive *Ultra Instinct* mirrors Goku's late-series anime form

## Base damage (Foong, 2026-05-12)

| Skill | Output |
|---|---|
| **m1** | 8 hits |
| **z** | 225 (direct) / 140 (radius) |
| **x** | 375 max |
| **c** | 22 × 10 = 220 |
| **g** | 45 × 26 = **1170** |
| **v** (mastered) | +15% DMG and movement-speed buff |

Saiyan's `g` (45×26 = 1170) ties **Akaza for third-highest single-button damage**, behind only Spin (1881) and Pride (910 wide-DoT). The `v`-skill is a buff rather than a damage hit, making Saiyan a hybrid carry/support build.

## Recommended loadout (Support — no offensive trait)

- **Trait**: None / **Glass Cannon** for solo runs — Rolasyum classifies Saiyan as "Support (no trait)" because the *Ultra Instinct* revive passive **fills the role offensive traits play for other abilities**
- **Pet**: Colossus Titan (Mythic) — meta pick across all builds
- **Cosmetic**: Hei Outfit (Survival) · Battle Suit (Raid)
- **Best modes**: Raid back-up, Survival/Gravewalker (revive value highest here), boss fights
