Day 1 raids in Devil Hunter (Roblox) are among the most important activities for early progression. These raids unlock powerful contracts, hybrid forms, rare weapons, and essential loot. If your goal is to obtain Katana Man Hybrid, farm early devil contracts, or efficiently clear Hotel and Zombie raids, this guide covers everything you need to know.
Why Day 1 Raids Matter in Devil Hunter
Day 1 raids are designed to push players quickly into the core gameplay loop. Completing these raids early provides:
- Access to Katana Man Hybrid
- High XP and yen rewards
- Raid-exclusive weapon drops
- Faster access to Yakuza and high-tier devil contracts
Most top-tier builds and late-game paths begin with successful Day 1 raid clears.
Katana Man Raid – How to Unlock Katana Hybrid
The Katana Man raid is one of the most sought-after Day 1 raids due to its hybrid unlock and powerful combat style.
Katana Hybrid Overview
Katana Hybrid offers:
- Fast M1 combos and aerial juggles
- A chargeable Z move for burst damage
- Counter abilities
- Heavy sanity drain, requiring proper stat investment
The hybrid relies heavily on sanity, and players are advised to prioritize sanity over technique for sustained combat effectiveness.
Katana Raid Rewards
- Katana Hybrid form
- Katana-based weapons
- Raid-exclusive drops (Ghost-related items may also appear)
Managing stamina and sanity is crucial, as running out disables hybrid abilities temporarily.
Zombie Raid – Best Entry Point for New Players
The Zombie Devil Raid is the easiest Day 1 raid and serves as a navigation reference point for other important locations.
Why Zombie Raid Is Important
- Accessible from anywhere using your phone
- Reliable source of early XP
- Landmark used to reach Yakuza Base
Zombie raids are often used as a fast-travel reference because nearly every player has access to them early.
Hotel Raid – Efficient Farming and Loot
The Hotel Raid focuses on wave-based combat with multiple enemies, making it ideal for:
- Farming XP
- Practicing parries and dodges
- Collecting consumables and weapons
Hotel raids are commonly used to prepare for harder encounters like Katana Man and Bat Devil.
How to Reach the Yakuza Base (Critical for Day 1 Progress)
Joining the Yakuza is essential for accessing Snake and Octopus Devil contracts, two of the strongest in the game.
Directions From Zombie Raid
- Teleport to the Zombie Devil Raid
- Follow the main road and turn left
- Continue down the street until you see yellow graffiti text
- Enter the building and speak to the Yakuza leader
Yakuza Initiation Quest Requirements
To officially join the Yakuza, you must:
- Gather 80,000 yen
- Kill 5 Public Safety members
This quest is mandatory and unlocks access to Yakuza-exclusive devils.
Obtain Future Devil contract from Public Safety before switching factions, as it becomes harder to access later.
Bat Devil and Snake Devil Contract Locations
Bat Devil
- Found inside a cave near the Yakuza region
- Requires knocking or carrying a player into the area to trigger properly
The Bat Devil encounter is often used as a gateway to Snake Devil progression.
Snake Devil Contract
Once Yakuza, you can meet the Snake Devil inside a cave connected to the Bat Devil area.
Contract Requirement:
- Collect 20 human hearts
This contract unlocks extremely high-damage abilities with long cooldowns and cinematic activation.
Best Devil Contracts After Day 1 Raids
After completing Day 1 raids, prioritize these contracts:
- Snake Devil – Massive damage, high cooldown
- Octopus Devil – Superior damage compared to Ghost
- Future Devil – Auto-block and combat prediction
Snake and Octopus are widely regarded as top-tier for both PvE and PvP.
Common Day 1 Raid Mistakes to Avoid
- Ignoring sanity investment for Katana Hybrid
- Switching to Yakuza before securing Future Devil
- Attempting Snake Devil without proper weapons or healing
- Underestimating common devils during contract quests
Avoiding these mistakes significantly improves early progression efficiency.
Day 1 raids define your entire Devil Hunter progression. Clearing Zombie, Hotel, and Katana Man raids early unlocks critical systems like hybrids, Yakuza contracts, and high-tier devils. Focus on sanity-based builds, smart faction choices, and raid sequencing to stay ahead of the curve. With the right preparation, Day 1 can set you up for long-term dominance in Devil Hunter.
