🏰 Creating Your Own Clan
If you want full control, you can create your own clan:
- Cost: Large amount of Yin (ensure you're financially ready)
- Level requirement: Need decent level (low-level leaders aren't taken seriously)
- Members: Best to have 3-5 friends ready to join immediately
⚠️ Warning:
New clans often fail because they recruit too early, lack communication, or stack the same builds. Make sure you have a solid foundation before creating your clan.
Clan Roles & Team Composition
Strong clans don't stack random builds. A balanced team needs structure and role diversity for both raids and PvP:

Clan Activities & Strategies
⚔️ Raid Content
Clans excel at raid content, making challenging encounters manageable:
Popular Raid Routes:
- Public Safety to Hotel
- Zombie Warehouse runs
- Ghost Devil contracts
- Katana Man boss fights
Strategies:
- Standardize routes for efficiency
- Specialize members for specific drops
- Chain runs with cooldown rotations
- Recover from wipes by pivoting to missions
🎯 Contract Farming
Organized sessions for contract grinding:
- Raid-locked contracts - Ghost or Zombie Devil (low drop chance, easier with groups)
- Faction paths - Help members get Future/Curse (Public Safety), Snake (Yakuza)
- Drop coordination - Share loot and trade duplicate contracts
🥊 PvP & Combat Practice
Safe practice and coordination for PvP:
Internal Sparring:
- Duel to test parry timing
- Practice against devils like Cucumber or Bat
- Experiment with builds (Mold, Frog, Fish)
Coordinated Invasions:
- Queue same missions for defenses
- Turn farming into scrimmages
- Raise group skill together
🌍 Open World Content
Clans make open world activities more fun and effective:
- Hold the Line missions - Coordinated defense is crucial
- Material farming - Split up to cover more ground
- Group progression - Help lower-level members catch up
Pro Tips for Clan Success
🎯 Prioritize Rare Clans
If you start with a common clan, reroll for a rare one ASAP. The passive bonuses are significant and apply constantly, making them essential for long-term progression.
🤝 Join Discord Communities
The best clans recruit on Discord. In-game clan lists are often inactive or poorly organized. Discord clans offer better communication, scheduled events, and serious players.
⚖️ Balance Your Team
Mix roles for balanced teams. Focus on synergies like Mantis for CC paired with Future for counters. Don't stack the same builds - diversity wins in both raids and PvP.
💬 Communication is Key
Use voice or text communication religiously. Coordinated clans clear content 10x faster than silent groups. Call out targets, cooldowns, and strategies in real-time.
📚 Match Clan to Contract
If you're going for a specific devil contract, consider the matching rare clan. Sawatari for Snake, Yoshida for Octopus, Himeno for Ghost - the reduced costs and buffs are substantial.
🎮 Stay Positive
Keep the environment positive. New clans fail when they become toxic or overly demanding. Remember, it's a game - have fun while grinding together.
