Best Roberto build in Megabonk

Roberto is the newest character to be added to Megabonk as part of the Spooky Update, and he can be an incredibly fun character to play.

He is also one of the hardest characters to unlock. Once you add him to the roster, however, Roberto could easily be considered a top-tier character. This guide will provide you with all the information you need to get a meta build for our spooky ghost.

Best Megabonk Roberto build

To build Roberto properly, you’ll need to understand how his kit works. Roberto isn’t blessed with a lot of health, and he doesn’t need it either. He is a typical DPS character who excels when you boost his attacks.

Before we dive deeper, let’s look at how you can set up the character.

Type	Best Choices	Good Choices
Weapon	Scythe (signature weapon) Aura Bananarang	Lightning Staff Chunkers
Tomes	Luck Size Agility	Regen Attack Speed
Items	Clover Gym Sauce Medkit	Turbo Socks Green Credit Card

The Scythe is a fantastic weapon in my books, as its slashes are pretty powerful. It can hit multiple enemies with a single swing, and you don’t even need to target in a specific direction. It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite weapons. The range could be slightly better, but it’s still a 9/10 weapon.

Aura is a must-have with Roberto so that you can gain your levels as quickly as possible. This is to trigger its Hoarder passive more frequently. With Hoarder, you get free chests after a certain interval, and this improves as you level up. Moreover, Hoarder also allows you to float, which has several benefits.

The Bananarang adds a bit of range to Roberto, but you can also go for Lightning Staff if you’re focusing on AoE for easier wave clearances.

With Tomes, you’ll want to add Luck as quickly as possible. Since you’ll be opening plenty of extra chests, having the additional luck will be immensely helpful. And, with the Scythe’s limited range, adding the Size tome will remove that weakness (and also enhance the effects of Aura).

That’s also why I went for Clover in my list of items (enhanced luck is required to get better returns from your chest). Gym Sauce raises the damage from all your weapons, while Medkit helps Roberto to preserve his health in dire situations (since he doesn’t have too much health to begin with).

Of course, you’ll also need to unlock Roberto in the first place.

How to unlock Roberto in Megabonk

Here’s a quick guide on how to add the new character to your available roster.

• Unlock the Scythe by killing Big Bob, who is one of the bosses in the Graveyard. Once you do so, you’ll be able to purchase a Scythe.
• Once you have the Scythe, defeat Spooky Steve, and you’ll get the choice to unlock Roberto.

Call of Duty grinders, the wait for competitive play is just a bit longer, but it’s well on the way.

Ranked Play in Black Ops 7 is not available at launch, but it’s coming before you know it. When it arrives, multiplayer gamers will have all sorts of ranks and rewards to earn as they level up and climb the competitive ladder.

Here’s everything we know about Ranked Play in BO7, including when to expect it.

When is BO7 Ranked Play coming out?

According to Treyarch and Activision, Ranked Play will be available as part of season two of BO7. The start date for season two is not official yet, but according to the season one battle pass’s in-game countdown timer, it should be on Feb. 5, 2026.

CoD seasons last about two months long, and season one began on Dec. 4, 2025. While Feb. 5 is not set in stone, it’s a likely date alongside Feb. 12 or even Feb. 19 depending on if it gets delayed or not (which is, unfortunately, always a possibility). When this season is live, Ranked Play will be live along with it.

Season two will also bring everything that CoD players expect from seasonal drops, like new weapons, new maps, new Zombies experiences, new Warzone modes, and even updates for the PvE Endgame activity. But Ranked Play is where the hardcore players will be looking to flex.

More about Ranked Play will be revealed in January 2026, but for now, players can expect more of the same when it comes to Ranked that was seen in previous titles like Black Ops 6 and Modern Warfare III, including:

• Multiple ranks and skill divisions to grind through
• Call of Duty League-inspired ruleset, modes, and maps
• Exclusive rewards like camos and player cards every season
• Plus more

Stay tuned for more official info from Activision some time after the holiday season on when to expect season two of BO7 and everything that will be included within it.
