How to Restore Aether
Aether Restores Over Time

Aether, the stamina in CZN, restores 1 every 6 minutes. It takes exactly 24 hours to restore to the cap, so be sure to log in daily and consume your stamina regularly.
Using Recovery Items

Stamina can be restored by 60 using recovery items. There are two types of recovery items: Tear of God, which can be obtained from Growth Guide rewards, and Ether Vial Powder, available at the Garden Cafe.
Using Crystals
Stamina can also be restored with Crystals. Recovery with Crystals is limited to 8 times, and the number of Crystals required increases with each recovery.

Restore at the Garden Cafe

Aether Recovery Cap
Fully Recovers in One Day
The stamina recovery cap from time passage in CZN is 240, and it fully recovers in 24 hours. It will not recover beyond the maximum, so make sure to use your stamina to prevent it from overflowing.
Stamina Recovery Benefits
Raise Your Captain Level Faster

By restoring stamina and taking on a Simulation, you can gain experience for your Captain Level. As your Captain Level increases, you will also be able to meet the requirements to take on Promotion Missions.
Efficiency Doesn't Change No Matter When You Use Them
By using stamina recovery items from a low level, you can raise your Captain Level faster and challenge higher difficulty Simulations early on. There is little reason to save recovery items, so use them proactively from the beginning.
