You will have a resource that recovers over time called stamina which you spend on battle quests. You do battle quests to either progress the story of the main storyline or an event, or to farm for character progression materials through event shop currencies or directly from exploration quests. Through playing daily, you will get daily rewards and level up your player ranks. You can find out more about them here: [[Login Rewards]].

First time clearing of quests give you x1 Dragon Vein Stone, and if the quest has a challenge mode, an additional x1 Dragon Vein Stone is rewarded.  
It takes less than 2 minutes to clear the mandatory tutorial (0-3) and skip stories (up to 0-4) in order to get your first 10 pull, and be able to log out.


Once you clear a battle quest with 3 stars, you'll able to use a Skip Ticket in order to skip combat in getting rewards.
== Gameplay Loop ==


== Characters and Gacha ==
* When logging-in for the day, you will receive daily [[Login Rewards]].  
The main ways of summoning new characters are via Scouting using tickets or dragon stones, and using recruitment flyers. You can find more in-depth info here: [[Scouting]].


'''Rarities'''
* You will be utilizing a resource called [[Stamina]], which regenerates 1 stamina/6 minutes, in order to play battle stages.
* 1★ are gray, 2★ are green, 3★ are blue, 4★ are purple, 5★ are yellow, 6★ are orange. You are generally expected to amass 1★ to 3★ units from flyer farming while typically getting 4★ in scouting. The power level of units is not clearly defined by their rarity. Lower-rarity units are often made to be good at doing one thing really well, while higher-rarity units serve to do a lot more than expected of their class. You usually care more about rarities simply on how easy it is for you to get a desired unit for their stills.
** You play stages in order to either progress the Main Storyline or Farm for event currency for on-going events.
'''Dragon Stones'''
*** Main Storyline quests are meant to be cleared only once and usually reward stamina recovery on first clear.
* Dragon Stones are used to pull for units at a rate of 4:1. You can use 40 to get 10 at the same time.
*** Event quests tend to be top priority especially when high value items are still unclaimed. Refer to [[Event Shop]] for more information.
* You get Dragon Stones from the first time clear 3-star and 4-star maps.
** First time clearing of quests give you x1 Dragon Vein Stone, and if the quest has a challenge mode, an additional x1 Dragon Vein Stone is rewarded
* [[Login Rewards]] and occasional campaigns are also possible sources.
*** Once you clear a battle quest with 3 stars, you'll able to use a Skip Ticket in order to skip combat in getting rewards.
* You will also get 4 Dragon Stones per maintenance, plus more if the maintenance is extended.
'''Edgar's Freebie Ticket'''


*A freebie ticket allows you one pull for units.
* A common item drop called Flyers are also rewarded which can be used to scout low rarity units.
*You get x10 from clearing the tutorial fight.
** Their dupes are typically best used to be converted into Ether and used in the ether shop which has various shop items that refresh over time. See [[Ether Exchange Shop]].
*Certain fights in the game give out these tickets as rewards, such as 100-enemy challenge maps.
* You do battle content to farm gacha currency, as well as progression materials for your units. See [[Character Progression]] for additional info.


'''Flyers'''
== Gacha Pull Currency ==
* Flyers are gained from any non-exploration level. They can be used to pull any unit from the release of the game.
The main ways of summoning new characters are via Scouting using tickets or dragon stones, and using recruitment flyers.  
* There are varying color rarities of them, which only dictate if a flyer can pull 1/100th (gray), 1 (green), 2 (blue), or 3 (purple) per flyer.
* This is the only way to get 1★ and 2★ units, and they are competent enough for any of the present content when used correctly.
* It is possible to get a 4★ to 6★ unit through this, but the odds are very slim.
=== Classes ===
Characters are sorted into classes, which suggest their primary niche in battle.


* [[Vanguard|Vanguards]], [[Fighter|Fighters]], and [[Guard|Guards]] are usually melee units placed on low ground that provide choke points for enemies, while [[Shooter|Shooters]] and [[Caster|Casters]] are usually ranged units placed on high ground solely to dish out damage and reach aerial enemies.
For info on the gacha system refer to [[Scouting (Gacha System)]], and for an idea on the pull currency and income refer to [[:Category:Pull Currency|Pull Currency]] and [[Pull Income]].
* [[Healer|Healers]] are high-ground units that solely recover allies' HP in their range.
* Lastly, [[Stranger|Strangers]] and [[Support|Supporters]] are a mixed bag of different units that provide unique buffs/debuffs or ways to deal damage.  


In each class, there are exceptions, of course, such as [[Robin]], a [[Support|Supporter]] who can match the performance of a [[Healer]], or [[Kagura]], a [[Healer]] who can be placed on low ground.
You ideally invest in [[Character Scouting]] first, and bother with [[Eidos Scouting]] and the entire [[Eidos System]] when you are in a much later stage in your game.
 
== Battle System ==
For more information on Classes, check [[Class System]].
 
=== Teambuilding ===
A well-balanced team that can work for most stages usually involves around 2-3 [[Vanguard|Vanguards]] and 2 [[Healer|Healers]], and the rest, a mix of ranged and melee DPS (at least 2-3 for each.) Stalling via [[Guard|Guards]] is generally less optimal than bringing a unit with good DPS, like [[Fighter|Fighters]] or high-rarity [[Vanguard|Vanguards]]. It is also good to note that the difficulty of the game does not require too much optimal party composition as long as all typical niches are covered.
 
The free units the game provides are all considerably good, especially [[Leonhart]] and [[Robin]].
 
For more in depth analysis look here: [[Tips and Tricks]].
 
=== Battle System ===
Generally, you will bring a party of at most 12 characters in combat. When it starts, you generate a resource called Cost, which you spend to deploy characters in eligible tiles. Your characters will combat incoming enemies spawning from their base (in red) or help support and sustain their allies. You have a certain number of Lives that you have to protect from enemies reaching your base, and expending all of them leads to the game being over.

* Currently on-going [[Event Quests|events]]. There is always an event running in the game, and it is the most cost-effective way to progress materials. You can refer to [[Event Shop]] for more info.

* [[Main Storyline]]. A lot of early story quests provide free additional Staminade drinks you can use to clear more content. It also gives a few free units; some are not pullable.

== The Gacha (Scouting) ==
== Progression Priority ==
The main ways of summoning new characters are via Scouting using tickets or dragon stones, and using recruitment flyers. You can find more in-depth info here: [[Scouting]].
Since the game features a battle system that requires characters of different roles, it is more advisable to aim for horizontal progression than vertical progression at the start. For a better idea on how progression works see, [[Character Progression]]


'''Rarities'''
* The most impactful investment is through levels, ranking up and reaching around Lv. 40 before the progression gets grindy.
* Most skills have impactful break points at slv. 4
* Eidoi and Proficiency are both late game investments and are not necessary.


* 1★ are gray, 2★ are green, 3★ are blue, 4★ are purple, 5★ are yellow, 6★ are orange. You are generally expected to amass 1★ to 3★ units from flyer farming while typically getting 4★ in scouting. The power level of units is not clearly defined by their rarity. Lower-rarity units are often made to be good at doing one thing really well, while higher-rarity units serve to do a lot more than expected of their class. You usually care more about rarities simply on how easy it is for you to get a desired unit for their stills.
== Team-building ==
First it is important to note what the different roles does a typical battle quest require in the game. Characters are sorted into classes, which suggest their primary niche in battle.
* [[Vanguard|Vanguards]], [[Fighter|Fighters]], and [[Guard|Guards]] are usually melee units placed on low ground that provide choke points for enemies, while [[Shooter|Shooters]] and [[Caster|Casters]] are usually ranged units placed on high ground solely to dish out damage and reach aerial enemies.
* [[Healer|Healers]] are high-ground units that solely recover allies' HP in their range.
* Lastly, [[Stranger|Strangers]] and [[Support|Supporters]] are a mixed bag of different units that provide unique buffs/debuffs or ways to deal damage.


'''Dragon Stones'''
In each class, there are exceptions, of course, such as [[Robin]], a [[Support|Supporter]] who can match the performance of a [[Healer]], or [[Kagura]], a [[Healer]] who can be placed on low ground.


* Dragon Stones are used to pull for units at a rate of 4:1. You can use 40 to get 10 at the same time.
For more information on Classes, check [[Class System]].
* You get Dragon Stones from the first time clear 3-star and 4-star maps.
* [[Login Rewards]] and occasional campaigns are also possible sources.
* You will also get 4 Dragon Stones per maintenance, plus more if the maintenance is extended.


'''Edgar's Freebie Ticket'''
A well-balanced team that can work for most stages usually involves around 2 [[Vanguard|Vanguards]] and 2 [[Healer|Healers]], and the rest, a mix of ranged and melee DPS (at least 2-3 for each.) Stalling via [[Guard|Guards]] is generally less optimal than bringing a unit with good DPS, like [[Fighter|Fighters]] or high-rarity [[Vanguard|Vanguards]]. It is also good to note that the difficulty of the game does not require too much optimal party composition as long as all typical niches are covered.
 
* A freebie ticket allows you one pull for units.
* You get x10 from clearing the tutorial fight.
* Certain fights in the game give out these tickets as rewards, such as 100-enemy challenge maps.
 
'''Flyers'''
 
* Flyers are gained from any non-exploration level. They can be used to pull any non-limited unit from the release of the game.
* There are varying color rarities of them, which only dictate if a flyer can pull 1/100th (gray), 1 (green), 2 (blue), or 3 (purple) per flyer.
* This is the only way to get 1★ and 2★ units, and they are competent enough for any of the present content when used correctly.
* It is possible to get a 4★ to 6★ unit through this, but the odds are very slim.


The free units the game provides are all considerably good, especially [[Leonhart]] and [[Robin]].

Supports are units you can take with you for that battle. You will get a pool of random Supports from players of a similar player level to you if you have no friends or less than 20 that fill in empty spaces. After using a specific Support, there will be a cooldown, preventing you from using it again for a while. The Supports will stay the same until they are shuffled at a later time.

== Troubleshooting ==
* If any assets may appear broken or outright missing, Clearing Cache from the title menu (accessed from initial start up or through Settings.)
* If persistent error pop-ups related to connection quality or outright inability to download any thing consider the following:
** Changing from mobile to wired connection or vice-versa
** Using a VPN
* Some may encounter authentication errors in logging in after creating an account, even after verifying their account.
** It is a good chance their password may contain an illegal character. Avoid using non-alphabet or numeric characters in your password.
