Shin and Mang are powerful mechanics in Roblox Archived that revolve around sanity manipulation, defence scaling, and damage amplification. Unlocking them can be tricky since the method is not straightforward, and progressing them requires specific quests and dungeon clears. This guide breaks everything down step by step.
Roblox Archived How to Obtain & Progress Shin and Mang
Step 1: Get a Fixer’s Note
- Where to get it:
- Defeat the Overconfident Fixer NPC and deal the most damage to earn the note.
- Or, buy it from the Traveling Pawn NPC (spawns every 20 minutes in random locations).
- Price Range: ~500,000 to 1,000,000 On.
- Important: The Fixer’s Note is undroppable. Each player must get their own copy.
Step 2: Trigger the Library Event
- Enter the Library dungeon with at least one office member.
- One member must get gripped by an NPC inside the Library.
- Watching this event is the condition that unlocks Shin/Mang.
Note: Despite appearances, your office member won’t actually wipe as long as you clear the Library afterwards. Everyone survives the run.
Step 3: Unlocking Shin
- After completing the Library run, Shin and Mang are unlocked.
- Press Ctrl + G to begin converting your Sanity into Shin stacks.
- At a certain stack threshold, you’ll trigger Mang automatically.
How Shin & Mang Work
Shin

- Provides scaling benefits:
- Lowers the number of stacks needed to pop Mang.
- Increases defense scaling.
- Amplifies damage output.
Example: At base, you may need 50 Shin stacks to activate Mang, but with higher Shin level, you can trigger it with only 10 stacks.
Mang
- The awakened state triggered after building Shin stacks.
- Provides massive offensive and defensive boosts depending on level and rings.
