Race V4 awakenings unlock the most powerful race ability in Blox Fruits, and the trial to earn each one is gated behind a unique challenge. This guide walks through the trial for every race and explains the reward each one unlocks.
Universal trial requirements
Before you can attempt any V4 trial, you need:
- 1Race V3 unlocked (Arctic puzzle in Sea 2)
- 2Level 1,500 minimum
- 3The Acrius NPC interaction at Sea 3 (he's the gatekeeper of all V4 trials)
The trial itself takes 8-15 minutes depending on your race and starts with a 10-second pre-fight prep window.
Cyborg V4 trial
Reward: Awakened ability disables enemy Observation + chain DOT. The single most decisive race in 2026 PvP.
Trial mechanic: Speed run through 8 island checkpoints in under 4 minutes. Each checkpoint is a specific location across Sea 3 (Cake Island → Hydra → Frozen Castle → etc.).
Strategy:
- Pre-cooldown your race V3 ability before the timer starts
- Use Mink-V3 if you have it as a temporary swap; the speed boost makes the run trivial
- Practice the route in regular gameplay before attempting
Common mistake: Players bring no preparation and waste 30+ seconds on each checkpoint figuring out the next location. Memorize the route first.
Angel V4 trial
Reward: Healing aura that ticks for teammates within 30 tiles + sustained flight ability.
Trial mechanic: Survive 5 waves of high-damage NPC attacks while keeping your HP above 50%. Lose if HP drops below 50% at any point.
Strategy:
- Bring Sanguine Art for lifesteal during the wave
- Position so you can kite — don't tank face-tank attacks
- Use defensive accessories (Snow Trooper, Sea Beast Horn) to lower incoming damage
Common mistake: Trying to burst kill the waves. The trial has a fixed length; you can't shortcut it. Focus on survival, not DPS.
Ghoul V4 trial
Reward: Heals on M1 + stacking damage as HP drops. The high-risk PvP race.
Trial mechanic: Defeat 3 mini-bosses with stacking modifiers — each subsequent boss gets +25% HP and +20% damage. Time-gated to 6 minutes total.
Strategy:
- Bring an awakened fruit for consistent burst (Buddha, Dragon)
- Use Death Step for combo flexibility — Sanguine isn't fast enough to clear all 3 in time
- Save your Conqueror for boss 3, the hardest fight
Common mistake: Spending too long on boss 1. You should clear it in under 90 seconds; if you're still fighting at 90s, restart the trial.
Mink V4 trial
Reward: Highest base movement speed in the game + electric pulse damage while running.
Trial mechanic: Pure speed challenge — sprint through a 6-checkpoint route on Cake Island in under 75 seconds.
Strategy:
- Use Mink V3 to start the race (active ability gives bonus speed)
- Cancel any sword/fruit usage — only running speed counts toward the trial
- Practice the route 5+ times in regular gameplay
Common mistake: Stopping to fight mobs along the route. The route is designed to be cleared without engaging — just run past everything.
Shark V4 trial
Reward: Underwater damage boost + amphibious dash attack.
Trial mechanic: Defeat the Tide Keeper boss underwater while taking 0 damage from his three projectile attacks. One hit fails the trial.
Strategy:
- Use Observation aggressively — the projectile patterns are predictable
- Position to use water tiles for movement
- Bring high-burst weapons (TTK + Godhuman setup) to end the fight quickly
Common mistake: Fighting on land tiles. The trial is designed for underwater play; the projectiles are slower and easier to read in water.
Human V4 trial
Reward: All for One — lifesteal-stun combo with sustain on long fights.
Trial mechanic: Defeat 50 NPCs while landing exactly 70% of your hits as M1s (the trial tracks hit ratios).
Strategy:
- Use Sword + Black Leg for natural M1 distribution
- Don't burst with finishers — every skill cast risks throwing off the M1 ratio
- Keep counting in your head; the trial doesn't show progress mid-fight
Common mistake: Spamming fruit skills out of habit. The trial fails silently if you cast too many skills.
Sky V4 trial
Reward: Sustained gliding + airborne damage scaling.
Trial mechanic: Stay airborne for 4 consecutive minutes while landing 20+ hits per minute on flying targets.
Strategy:
- Use Sky V3 active for initial lift; chain into a fruit ability with airborne uptime (Light, Dragon)
- Position to engage flying NPCs continuously — don't let your hit-per-minute drop below 20
- Practice transitioning from V3 lift to fruit-driven flight
Common mistake: Falling to the ground briefly to dodge — the trial fails if you touch ground for more than 1 second.
Fishman V4 trial
Reward: Wave Crash AoE underwater damage + water-tile mobility.
Trial mechanic: Clear 8 underwater waves of NPCs while staying within Sea 2's submerged tiles. Time limit: 5 minutes.
Strategy:
- Bring Buddha awakened for AoE underwater
- Use Fishman V3 to maintain underwater speed
- Position centrally — the underwater tiles funnel mobs to a small area
Common mistake: Surfacing for air. Fishman lets you stay submerged indefinitely; surfacing wastes the speed bonus.
V4 priority for new players
If you can only do one trial: Cyborg V4. It's the highest-impact race in 2026 PvP and the trial is the most consistent (memorizable route, no boss fights).
If your race is locked in (you don't want to spend Robux to swap), prioritize the trial regardless. Even B-tier V4 races (Human, Sky) outperform their V3 versions by 30-40%.
What's next
V4 awakening is the final piece of your endgame loadout. Combine it with awakened fruit, max sword stat, and Godhuman/Sanguine fighting style and you're ready for [Sea 3 endgame content](#) — bounty hunts, the Soul Reaper boss, and the level cap grind.
