Boss Routes and Early Drops

Fight Salik at level 20 in the Ruins, then follow the Hage Forest, Rayaka, and Sosshi bosses in level order.

Seven bosses are documented for the launch map, from Salik at level 20 to Magna Swing at level 80. They respawn about 3 minutes after a defeat, and they leave the spawn only when someone kills them. Magic Squads are the intended way to take the later fights. Update 1 announces two more bosses without names.

Go in this order

Boss Level HP Where Quest lead
Chain Bandit (Salik) 20 2,250 Ruins, left of Cole after the tower portal Cole
Earth Bandit Boss 25 3,750 Hage Forest Dell in one writeup, Roadkeeper in another
Mana Wolf 35 3,750 Hage Forest, first left out of the Rayaka portal Kael
Zora 50 4,500 Rayaka Village, center-right of the portal Mara
Fire Mage Boss 55 4,500 Rayaka, behind the windmill Not named in the gathered cards
Heath Grice 75 7,500 Sosshi Village Not named in the gathered cards
Magna Swing 80 9,750 Sosshi, including a bridge spawn Yarn, 4,269 XP and 2,000 Yuls

One list spells Heath as Heart. The quest board uses Heath Grice. Use that name in game.

What is worth picking up

Salik, the first real gear check:

  • Salik Outfit, 30%, +70 Health and +16 Stamina
  • Chain Fragment, 15%
  • Salik Cloak, 12%, +40 Health, +16 Stamina, +0.6 Stamina Regen per second
  • Normal Chest, 9.5%
  • Chain Hand, 3%
  • Iron Scythe, 2%

Earth Bandit: Earth Mage Outfit at 30% (+90 Health, +20 Stamina), Earth Mage Boss Outfit at 5% (+130 Health, +28 Stamina), Normal Chest at 9.5%.

Mana Wolf, the fragment boss: Wolf Fang 35%, Mana Wolf Fang 30%, Normal Chest 9.5%, Crystal Mana Fragment 5% (1-2), Medium Chest 3.45%. Take fragments to the Hage bench. See Mana Crystals.

Normal Chests at 9.5% also drop from Zora and the Fire Mage. Medium Chests at 3.45% continue through Zora, Fire Mage, Heath, and Magna. Fire Mage is the earliest boss listed with a Big Chest drop, at about 0.75%, shared with Heath and Magna.

How to reach them

Salik: take the Grimoire Tower teleport, walk straight to Cole, then take the left path.

Mana Wolf: leave the Rayaka Village portal away from the village and take the first left. Wolf mobs are in the same camp.

Zora stands in Rayaka near the portal. The Fire Mage is behind the nearby windmill. Sosshi is the next region after Rayaka. Finral's paid teleports cover village stops if the broom mana pool is empty. Nero's +50 Mana and the Medium Magic Broom (Mana cost 4) make that flight cheaper. See stats and brooms.

What to bring

Match the fight to the book you kept. Poison and Anti-Magic are the kits players bring when a boss punishes standing in melee. Ice and Chain have a 50-point skill that should be unlocked before Heath and Magna, not after. A squad matters more than a duplicate of the same short-range book, because the later HP totals are several times Salik's.

If a boss is missing, wait the respawn instead of changing regions. Three minutes is the reported timer.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Clover Time free?

Yes. Clover Time [SHADOW GRIMOIRE] is a free Roblox experience by AnimeCore Studio. Optional Robux items exist, including a Grimoire Bag reported at 469 Robux and a Big Starter Bundle reported at 2599 Robux. The opening quests, the first tower roll, and the first broom do not require them.

What is the difference between Spins and Mana Crystals?

Spins and Special Spins reroll Race, Social Class, and Trait at the Hage Priest or in Menu, Customize, Rolls. Crystal Mana, also called a Mana Crystal, is spent at Grimoire Tower. One crystal is one tower roll. Spins do not roll books.

How do I get my first Grimoire?

Open the two starter chests for the usual first Mana Crystal, follow the tower marker, and spend the crystal in the rolling area. No level gate is documented for that first roll. If the door is locked, the nearby tutorial NPC can give a key. Finral in Hage can also teleport you there for Yuls.

Which stat should I level?

Grimoire skills unlock from Power in Profile, Stats. Basic M1 attacks scale with Strength. Chain's last skill stays locked until 50 Power. The Bandit Dagger is the documented weapon that scales with Sword. Mana helps the broom stay in the air. There is no single spread for every book.

What is the Shadow Grimoire update?

The Roblox page title is Clover Time [SHADOW GRIMOIRE] and the description says Update 1 is here. The announced additions are 1 Secret and 2 Epic grimoires, 2 bosses, 3 quests, and the Royal Capital. Names for those new books and bosses were not published in the records read for this wiki.
