These are the GloryBound videos we actually watched while building this wiki. Under each one we wrote what it covers and how it compares with our own in-game test on Nov 11, 2026, including where a video is now out of date.
How we pick: only GloryBound videos (not the many songs and other games with “Glory Bound” in the name), with a verifiable upload date. We skip script and exploit videos, Robux giveaways and code-only videos. The creators’ claims are their own; where our in-game tests disagree, the guide pages say so. Videos load from YouTube only when you press play.
Beginner guides
First hour, classes, codes and the prison hub.
Our notes
An 8-minute walkthrough from a fresh account: equipping chest gear, picking a class, training at the barbells and a first squad match with a chariot-push challenge. Our check: the codes it redeems (UPDATE, BOSS, BERSERKER) now say “This code has expired”, and the Berserker costs 799 Robux, which matches the store. The boosted barbells behind “like and join the group” are the 1.5x barbells we saw in the gym.
Our notes
A tidy 3-minute beginner route: redeem codes with J, open chests, train, then upgrade Fortune, defence or attack in the skill tree. The three codes it lists are now expired; use the tested ones on our codes page instead. Its advice to read boons before picking them matches what we saw in the arena.
Our notes
A short, three-minute tips video aimed at new players. Useful as a quick visual of the hub and the arena; for exact numbers (chest odds, Blessing odds, set bonuses) use the tested pages on this site.
Our notes
A very short overview (under 90 seconds) recorded a few days before Update 3, so it predates the Trials and the Crystal of Fortuna. Good for a first look at the arena, not for current systems.
Our notes
The most detailed beginner video we found (11 minutes, by a stats-minded player). It turns off camera shake and tilt, explains that Strength multiplies your damage, and says rebirth keeps level, gear and Cash, which matches the Rebirth 1 panel we photographed. It also says the Berserker unlocks at level 60, the same as the in-game card, and uses the ABILITY, UPDATE_3 and TRIALS codes that still worked in our test.
Classes & builds
Archer, Gladiator, Lancer and Berserker builds.
Our notes
A 35-minute solo Archer run past wave 50, with commentary on every boon pick. Things we could match to our own data: Cerberus around round 20 (the “Hound slayer” title says round 20), coin-purse thieves as a round challenge, and Epic boons such as +22% damage. The Mythic Blessing he calls “Judgment of Soul” is spelled Judgement of Sol in the Crystal.
Survival runs
Long runs, farming and wave 60 clears.
Our notes
A quick farming clip. Pair it with what the match report taught us: stay until the end (leaving early halves the result bonus), and play with a squad, since Solo has a x0.85 reward multiplier.
Our notes
A 20-minute uncut Survival run recorded before Update 3. Useful for seeing the early rounds and enemy types (undead legionaries, dogs, archers, brutes) at normal speed.
Our notes
A 4-minute clip claiming a full 60-wave Survival clear, the current maximum. No commentary, but it is the only footage we found of the Insane rounds (41–60).
Trials & Raid
Trial boss fights from Update 3.
Our notes
An Indonesian-language video (1 hour 44 minutes) beating every Trial boss: Ignis, Glaucus, the Hydra of Lerna and Janus. Until our account reaches level 10, this is the best way to see the Trial fights; the language does not matter much for watching the patterns.
Skill tree & gear
Skill tree paths and Mythic armor.
Our notes
Shows the skill tree being levelled. The creator’s colour guide is right: red is weapon damage (Gladius), blue is defence (Scutum), yellow is farming Cash, XP and chests (Fortuna) and purple boosts your Blessing (Numen). Our skill tree page adds the exact node numbers.
Our notes
A one-minute clip about getting Mythic armor. For the full picture: Mythic pieces come from the Forge (60 or 80 Forge Embers each, Embers from Survival round 21 with a 40-a-day cap), from Epic chests (5% Mythic) or the Legendary chest (15%), and Imperator’s regalia from the Weekly Raid.
