Weekly must-do

Weekly caps: whatever you don't use before the reset is gone for good. These ticks clear themselves at every weekly reset.

1. Never sit at the energy cap. Craft all 7 weekly Odyle energies (Substance Morph) and pick up the green Odium in the world and after dungeons. LittleFattyGG
2. Buy Odyle energy in the shop. Each purchase is 40 energy for Kinah, up to a weekly limit — buy them all before it resets. Price and limit differ between regions and sources, so check the shop. SoloButSocial
3. Daily Dungeon: 7 entries — it's a weekly limit despite the name. LittleFattyGG
4. Nightmare and Shugo Festa charges — spend them before they cap. Shugo keys stop at 14; repeat clears still give shop currency. Spid
5. Duty quests — burn them in the pet dungeon (Odilium Repository); reroll rare ones for enhancement stones. LittleFattyGG
6. Transcendence at ~1.8k item level if you can — reward pool 2 has the blue arcana; 1.5k only gets greens. LittleFattyGG
7. Abyss commander scrolls — pick them up and reroll for the rewards you need (Abyss points, stones). Spid
8. Ascension Trial last. 3 attempts a week: wait until right before the reset and run them at your highest item level — the first-clear rewards scale with difficulty. SpidLittleFattyGG

One-time things that are easy to get wrong early on. These ticks stay.

1. Level your alts to 22 early. Odyle energy only starts regenerating at 22 — every offline hour after that is free energy. With 10–16 hours at launch, play the main first and start alts after 1–2 days, when the starting zones are emptier; with less time, take 4 characters to 22 first. SpidTitanTheF
2. Main story to 45 first. A lot opens at 45 (in Taiwan even gathering). Side content scales with you, so nothing is lost by rushing. LittleFattyGGSpid
3. Don't open expedition chests while leveling. Finish the runs but save the energy for Vakron Sky Island (1,600 item level) — the end of the main story hands you yellow weapons anyway. Spid
4. Feathers → Monolith, but last. Nerfed on global, so collect them after everything else. 95+ feathers take the Monolith to level 11 (stones for the green amulet); it also gives stats, a costume and a title. Use an interactive map. LittleFattyGGSpidSanya Jacuzzi
5. Sealed dungeons and strongholds on your route — Daevanion crystals, and strongholds are the only way to upgrade the Noble belt. LittleFattyGGSpid
6. Enemy-side rifts are no longer a priority. Per the global datamine, enemy-side ? marks and sealed dungeons give 1,000 AP and 2–5k enhancement stones instead of Daevanion nodes — do them at your own pace, weekly caps come first. LittleFattyGGSanya Jacuzzi
7. Amulet and belt to +10, then Substance Morph them to the next colour. Unequip first, or the morph won't work. Spid
8. Enhance to +10 and stop. After +10 the 100% success rate is gone and costs explode. Weapon and accessories first — they give damage; armor later. Spid
9. Keep yellow items you can't use. They make soulbinding rerolls 100% successful — don't dismantle them. Spid
10. Season shop: don't buy blind. Season coins are scarce; wait until it's clear what's worth it. Skip the early Kanis PvP gear and don't enhance the Fierce Battle amulet — spend Abyss points on Daevanion crystals and stigma shards. SpidLittleFattyGG
11. Shugo Festival at 45. Only at level 45 do you get the full rewards — gold gear and craft materials (global also added stigma shards). Go to every one. TitanTheF
12. Shugo Festa “Not This Tile”: one runner collects orbs, everyone else stops at 500 points and steps off the board — the whole group gets top-tier rewards. LittleFattyGG
13. Set up your macro. Combat speed outgrows your fingers fast — see the Macro section of your class guide. Spid
14. Shugo currency → Daevanion nodes first. With the enemy ? marks nerfed, the Shugo shop is the main early source of Daevanion nodes. Boss rifts give the same rewards: 100 contribution points = 3 reward cards — invite Chanters, Clerics and Templars for their buffs. Sanya Jacuzzi
15. Nightmare from 45. Charges only start piling up at 45 — reach it as early as you can. Every boss has 10 difficulties and an entry is spent only on a kill, so you can leave and come back stronger. Greys first, then greens, then the Last Boss. Sanya Jacuzzi
16. Daily contracts: judge by the first slots. Only the first reward is guaranteed; the rest are a chance that drops the further along the list they are. Take the ones with a key in slots 1–4, otherwise the most rainbow and pet stones; a gold item at the end is almost always a trap. Sanya Jacuzzi
17. Keep Daily Dungeon and trial pass boxes closed if they are handed out at launch. These modes are being reworked and are best run at the end of the week, at your strongest — rewards depend on your kill speed. Sanya Jacuzzi
18. Kill every world boss once — a chance at a drop and a participation title. Timers are on the map and on the World bosses page. TitanTheF
