Sword Queen (Knight) is the evolved form of Sword Queen in Anime Adventures, the Roblox anime tower defense game. No banner offers the Knight form directly. You summon the base unit, then evolve it.
Quick answer: Summon the Mythic Sword Queen while it is featured on rate-up, then evolve it with 250 Lesser Chalice, 25 Star Fruit, and 7,500 takedowns with the unit.
How to summon Sword Queen
Sword Queen is a Mythic unit on rate-up, and summons can only yield it while it is featured. Shiny variants are also available.
The featured lineup changes during the day. On 9 Nov 2026 the board showed Shadow Sorcerer (Incident), Bloodcry, and Shinobi (Awakened) at 06:58 UTC. At 09:55 UTC it showed Zombie, Reliable Student, and Lilia. Sword Queen was on neither lineup.
Sword Queen (Summer) is a separate item and not a separate unit. It is a Legendary skin marked “Available only from the Summer 2026 Event!”
Sword Queen vs. Sword Queen (Knight) stats
These are placement stats at level 1.
| Stat | Sword Queen | Sword Queen (Knight) |
|---|---|---|
| Rarity | Mythic | Mythic |
| Damage | 700 | 910 |
| Cooldown | 7 s | 7 s |
| DPS | 100.0 | 130.0 |
| Range | 20 | 20 |
| Placement cost | 1,400 | 1,400 |
| Damage type | Physical / Light | Physical / Light |
After evolving, it gains “+30% Attack, +Sword of Victory”. Its Knight form costs the same to place, adding damage without raising the deployment cost. That works out to 92.9 DPS per 1,000 cost.
On the Update 21 tier list, ranked by evolved DPS, S tier starts at 140 and A tier covers 120 to 139.9. Sword Queen (Knight) lands in A tier. It sits between Phoenix (Mythic Flames) at 131.6 and Fishi (Obsession) at 128.3.
Sword Queen (Knight) evolution requirements
| Requirement | Amount |
|---|---|
| Sword Queen | 1 |
| Lesser Chalice | 250 |
| Star Fruit | 12 |
| Star Fruit (Blue) | 5 |
| Star Fruit (Red) | 3 |
| Star Fruit (Pink) | 4 |
| Star Fruit (Rainbow) | 1 |
| Takedowns with the unit | 7,500 |
To get a shiny Sword Queen (Knight), you need a shiny Sword Queen plus the same items. The takedowns have to come from Sword Queen itself, so field it in your runs while you farm the materials.
How to get 250 Lesser Chalice
Lesser Chalice is a Legendary material described as “+Required to evolve a special unit…”. Its source line reads “Obtained from Noble Portals and Daily Mission!” The NPC Shiro calls them “Lesser Grails”. Both sources run through Mountain Temple.
On 9 Nov 2026 the Quests menu’s Event tab showed a different daily, “Daily Mission – Defeat 2500 Curses (any mode)”. It pays Sacred Treasure x35 + 500 Gems, not Lesser Chalice, so make sure you are working on the Familiars mission.
Lesser Chalice is also the evolution currency for Lilia, Golden King, Spearer, Faker, and Hex. Each of those units takes 250 Lesser Chalice too; the Lesser Chalice guide lists all six.
Star Fruit from Challenges
Star Fruit is “Obtained from completing Challenges and other means.” Open Areas, then Challenges (“Complete Challenges for Star Fruits and other rewards!”), and check the current Challenge board for its Star Fruit rewards. Each roll has the following odds.
| Fruit | Odds per roll | Needed for Knight |
|---|---|---|
| Star Fruit | 43% | 12 |
| Star Fruit (Blue) | 13.5% | 5 |
| Star Fruit (Red) | 13.5% | 3 |
| Star Fruit (Pink) | 13.5% | 4 |
| Star Fruit (Green) | 13.5% | 0 |
| Star Fruit (Rainbow) | 3% | 1 |
Sword Queen needs no Green fruit. The single Rainbow is the rarest kind at 3% per roll; every Challenge modifier is in the Star Fruit guide.
Sword Queen (Knight) farming plan
- Daily Mission alone: 35 Lesser Chalice a day means 250 takes 8 days, because 7 days only gets you to 245.
- Noble Portal runs in Mountain Temple (War) add to that daily total.
- Deploy Sword Queen in the Mountain Temple stages so the Familiar kills also count toward its 7,500 takedowns.
- Run Challenges alongside the dailies until you have 12 Star Fruit, 5 Blue, 3 Red, 4 Pink, and 1 Rainbow.
Once every requirement is met, evolve the unit. Sword Queen (Knight) has 910 damage and 130.0 DPS at level 1, up from 700 and 100.0.
