Skill Tree Update at a Glance
Evolution Studio Games shipped the skill tree expansion in mid-August 2026. The Roblox experience title displayed [Skills⭐] briefly before Update 8 replaced it with [Raids ⚔️]. This update deepens permanent lobby upgrades — the long-term Key sink — while introducing Void Chests and celebration codes.
The skillz and freevoid codes have since expired. The 750-Key Armor Grading node added in Update 8 extends the skill tree system further. The core eight-node skill tree remains the recommended first investment before any other Key spending.
What the Skill Tree Expansion Added
The lobby skill tree receives expanded permanent nodes that compound across every future run. Unlike run-time Chest stat buffs, skill tree purchases persist between sessions — making them the highest-value Key investment for most players before heavy Chest gambling.
Void Chests joined the loot pool as a new chest tier via the now-expired freevoid code.
| Feature | Player Impact |
|---|---|
| Expanded skill tree | More permanent stat nodes in lobby |
| skillz code | Expired — 2,500 Keys retired |
| freevoid code | Expired — Void Chests retired |
| Void Chest tier | Still accessible from freevoid-era stockpiles |
| Armor Grading unlock | 750 Keys — added in Update 8 |
skillz and freevoid Codes — Now Expired
skillz and freevoid expired in late August 2026. Do not retry them. R41D5 and firstswarm are the current active codes.
The skill tree expansion made permanent upgrades even more important. Community testing still recommends this order: Damage → Max Health → Defense → Player Speed → Pick Up Range → Attack Range → remaining nodes → Luck last. Budget an additional 750 Keys for the Update 8 Armor Grading unlock.
Mythicals and Jungle Still Matter
The skill tree update did not replace Mythicals or Jungle — it layers permanent progression on top. Jungle remains the best Key farm for funding nodes. Armor Grading from Raids now supplements skill tree investments.
