Bizarre Lineage How to Get Stands — All Obtaining Methods
Stands are the core combat mechanic in Bizarre Lineage. Every player needs one to progress through the game, fight bosses, and compete in PvP. But getting the Stand you actually want is far from straightforward. The system relies on RNG, rare consumables, and specific evolution chains that the game barely explains.
This guide covers every method of obtaining Stands in Bizarre Lineage as of Update 1 (March 2026), including Stand Arrow mechanics, rarity probabilities, evolution paths, and practical tips for farming the Stand you want.
Method 1: Stand Arrows
Stand Arrows are the primary way to unlock a Stand. When you use a Stand Arrow, the game rolls a random Stand from the full pool, weighted by rarity tier. Your current Stand is replaced — there is no way to store multiple Stands on a single character.
Where to Find Stand Arrows
Stand Arrows spawn at fixed locations across Morioh Cho on a timed rotation. The most reliable spawn points are scattered around the main town area. Arrows despawn after a set period if nobody picks them up, and a new one spawns elsewhere shortly after.
You can also obtain Stand Arrows from:
- NPC merchants in Morioh Cho (purchased with in-game currency)
- Raid Boss drops (Kira, Jotaro, Avdol, and DIO raids all have a chance to drop arrows)
- Quest rewards from specific NPCs
- The Robux shop (paid option for players who want to skip the grind)
Stand Arrow Rarity Rates
Every time you use a Stand Arrow, the game rolls against these rarity tiers:
| Rarity | Probability | Stands in Tier | |--------|------------|----------------| | Common | ~45% | Red Hot Chili Pepper | | Uncommon | ~30% | Magician's Red, The Hand, Purple Haze, Crazy Diamond, Golden Experience | | Rare | ~18% | Anubis, Killer Queen, Weather Report, Stone Free | | Legendary | ~6% | Star Platinum, The World, King Crimson | | Mythical | ~1% | Whitesnake |
Within each tier, the roll is evenly distributed among all Stands in that tier. So pulling any specific Uncommon Stand is roughly a 6% chance per arrow (30% divided by 5 Stands), while pulling Whitesnake specifically sits at approximately 1%.
Important: The World: High Voltage, added in Update 1, is NOT obtainable through regular Stand Arrows. It requires a special evolution path (see below).
Tips for Efficient Arrow Farming
- Server hop for arrow spawns. Arrows spawn on a per-server timer. Joining a fresh server gives you the best chance of finding an unclaimed arrow.
- Learn the spawn map. Arrows appear at roughly 8-10 fixed locations in Morioh Cho. Memorize the route and run it every time you join a server.
- Farm currency for merchant arrows. If you are grinding for a specific Stand, buying arrows from NPC merchants is more time-efficient than hunting spawns. Focus on quests and mob farming to build currency.
- Do not roll arrows on your main if you already have a good Stand. Using a Stand Arrow replaces your current Stand permanently. If you want to gamble for a better Stand, use an alternate slot or be prepared to lose what you have.
Method 2: Stand Evolution
Certain Stands can evolve into stronger versions through specific in-game requirements. Evolution is the only way to obtain some of the most powerful Stands in the game, including the top-tier Mythical options.
Whitesnake Evolution Chain
The most important evolution chain in Bizarre Lineage:
- Whitesnake (Mythical, ~1% from Stand Arrow)
- C-Moon (evolved from Whitesnake)
- Made in Heaven (evolved from C-Moon)
To evolve Whitesnake into C-Moon, you need to meet specific level requirements and gather evolution materials. C-Moon then evolves further into Made in Heaven with additional requirements.
Made in Heaven is one of the strongest Stands in the game (S Tier) with unmatched mobility, making this evolution chain the single most valuable progression path. If you pull Whitesnake, prioritize this evolution above everything else.
The World: High Voltage
The World: High Voltage is the newest and highest-rated Stand in the game (S+ Tier), added just before Update 1. It is obtained by evolving The World through a special quest chain involving the Cyborg Sub Ability system introduced in the same patch.
Requirements include:
- The World as your base Stand (Legendary, ~2% chance from arrows)
- Completion of specific Update 1 quest content
- Cyborg Sub Ability unlocked and leveled
This makes High Voltage one of the hardest Stands to obtain — you first need to pull a Legendary Stand, then complete endgame content to evolve it.
Method 3: Trading
Player-to-player trading exists in Bizarre Lineage, though it is limited in scope. You cannot directly trade Stands between characters, but you can trade Stand-related items that influence what you can obtain.
The trading economy is heavily skewed toward rare items. Check the trading channels on the official Discord server for current market rates before making any deals. Overpaying for items is extremely common among new players who do not know the meta values.

Stand Obtaining Strategy by Player Type
Free-to-Play Players
The free-to-play experience in Bizarre Lineage is notoriously grindy. Your best approach:
- Start with whatever you roll. Your first Stand Arrow is given early in the game. Use whatever you get to start leveling and farming currency.
- Target Uncommon-tier Stands first. Golden Experience and Crazy Diamond are both Uncommon (30% tier) and rated A Tier. They are realistic targets that perform well in both PvE and PvP.
- Farm arrows consistently. Set a routine: join server, run the arrow spawn route, do dailies, buy merchant arrows. Repeat.
- Save your best rolls. Once you hit a Rare or higher Stand, stop rolling on that character unless you are prepared to lose it.
Players Who Spend Robux
If you are willing to spend, the Robux shop offers Stand Arrows and reroll opportunities that dramatically speed up the grind. However, be aware that community sentiment around the game's monetization is strongly negative. Many players consider the pricing ($10-25 for basic quality-of-life features) to be excessive relative to the content offered.
Complete Stand Roster (Update 1)
Here is every obtainable Stand as of Update 1, with their rarity and primary role:
| Stand | Rarity | Tier | Best For | |-------|--------|------|----------| | Red Hot Chili Pepper | Common | C | Early game only | | Magician's Red | Uncommon | B | PvE, fire damage | | The Hand | Uncommon | B | Single-target burst | | Purple Haze | Uncommon | A | High damage, DoT | | Crazy Diamond | Uncommon | A | Healing, support | | Golden Experience | Uncommon | A | Healing, beginner-friendly | | Anubis | Rare | B | Melee combat | | Killer Queen | Rare | A | PvE farming, explosions | | Weather Report | Rare | A | AoE, PvE farming | | Stone Free | Rare | A | Versatile, ranged | | Star Platinum | Legendary | A | Burst damage | | The World | Legendary | S | Time stop, PvP | | King Crimson | Legendary | S | Evasion, PvP | | Whitesnake | Mythical | S | Disc steal, evolves to C-Moon | | C-Moon | Mythical | A | Gravity, evolves to MiH | | Made in Heaven | Mythical | S | Speed, best mobility | | The World: High Voltage | Mythical | S+ | Best overall, PvP dominant |
Four additional Stands were added in Update 1 beyond High Voltage, but community documentation on their exact names and obtaining methods is still being compiled. Check back for updates as the information is confirmed.
Best Stands to Aim For
If you are rerolling and want to know when to stop:
- Stop immediately: Whitesnake (evolution path to Made in Heaven), The World (evolution path to High Voltage), King Crimson
- Keep if you need a main: Star Platinum, Killer Queen, Weather Report, Stone Free
- Solid starter, keep rolling when you can: Golden Experience, Crazy Diamond, Purple Haze
- Reroll when possible: Red Hot Chili Pepper, Magician's Red, The Hand, Anubis
The Whitesnake and The World pulls are the two jackpot results because they unlock the strongest evolution chains in the game. If you pull either one, stop rolling immediately and focus on evolution.
Personality Assignment on Stand Obtain
When you obtain a Stand through a Stand Arrow, you also receive a random Personality — a passive trait that modifies your Stand's capabilities. Personalities range from Common to Mythical rarity and can significantly impact your build's effectiveness.
You can reroll your Personality using a Stand Personality Essence without changing your Stand. This is important because a bad Personality on a great Stand is fixable, but rolling away a great Stand is permanent.
The best Personalities to watch for are Elegant and Transcendent (Mythical tier). For a full breakdown, see our Personality Guide.
Summary
Getting the Stand you want in Bizarre Lineage comes down to three paths: rolling Stand Arrows and hoping for favorable RNG, evolving a base Stand through in-game progression, or trading for the materials you need. The most efficient approach combines all three — farm arrows aggressively, protect high-value rolls, and invest in evolution chains when you hit Whitesnake or The World.
