Rerolling for a Strong Foundation
Free-to-play players should strongly consider rerolling for a superior starting lineup. Aim for Suomi (rate-up character) and either Qiongjiu or Tololo (standard/beginner's banner). This powerful duo significantly eases early-game challenges.
Prioritizing Story Campaign Missions
Focus on clearing the main story campaign as quickly as possible. Ignore side battles initially; your primary objective is Commander level 30, unlocking crucial features like PvP and rewarding Boss Fights. Prioritize campaign missions until Commander level becomes a bottleneck.
Strategic Summoning
Conserve Collapse Pieces exclusively for rate-up banners. If you missed Suomi, dedicate all resources to her banner. Otherwise, use standard summon tickets (not Collapse Pieces) on the standard banner to acquire additional SSR characters.
Limit Breaking and Leveling
Character levels are tied to your Commander level. After each Commander level increase, utilize the Fitting Room to train Dolls and upgrade their weapons. At level 20, farm Stock Bars via Supply Missions to break the level limit. Prioritize your main team (ideally Suomi, Qiongjiu/Tololo, Sharkry, and Ksenia – substitute Ksenia for Tololo if obtained).
Event Mission Optimization
Upon reaching level 20, participate in limited-time events. Complete all Normal missions, then focus on at least one Hard mission daily (three attempts available). These provide valuable event currency for the shop, offering summon tickets, Collapse Pieces, SR characters, weapons, and other resources.
Dispatch Room and Affinity Management
Utilize the Dormitory's gift system to increase Doll affinity. This unlocks Dispatch missions, yielding idle resources and Wish Coins (used in a separate gacha system for resources and a chance at Perithya). The Dispatch shop also offers summon tickets and valuable items.
Boss Fights and Combat Exercises
Focus on Boss Fights (a turn-based scoring mode) and Combat Exercises (PvP). An optimal Boss Fight team includes Qiongjiu, Suomi, Ksenia, and Sharkry. In Combat Exercises, utilize a weak defense to allow others to farm points while targeting easier opponents for your own gains.
Hard Mode Campaign Missions
After completing Normal mode, tackle Hard mode and side battles. While not providing Commander experience, they reward Collapse Pieces and summon tickets.
