Mid-to-Late Game Goals
- Raise Hunter Level and Clear Ch.3
- Raise Tycoon Level and Use Stamina
- Optimize Character Lineup
Raise Hunter Level and Clear Ch.3
The top priority in the mid-game is to clear Episode Quest Chapter 3. To do this, you need to reach Hunter Level 14, which requires daily use of Stamina and Exploration.
Raise Tycoon Level and Use Stamina
After unlocking Hethereau Hobbies, use City Stamina to earn Fons (money). The maximum Stamina and available content expand as you increase your Tycoon Level, so it's a good idea to use up your Stamina while progressing through the tutorial quests.
Optimize Character Lineup
Use the Gacha Stones obtained from quests, events, and Exploration to pull from the gacha, then build a team and train the characters you get. However, since you can't obtain S-Rank Consoles and Modules until you reach Hunter Level 30, there's no need to farm for perfect ones yet.
Progress Story & Unlock Content
Reach Hunter Level 14 and Chapter 3

After clearing Episode Quest Chapter 1, which is the early-game goal, and unlocking Daily Quests and various stamina-consuming content, aim to clear Episode Quest Chapter 3. The required Hunter Level to attempt Chapter 3 is a relatively low 14, which can be reached by completing dailies and Exploration.

Complete Quests and Commissions

By completing Side Quests, Spinoff Quests, and Anomaly Commissions during city Exploration, you can earn Hunter Level EXP. If you're short on EXP to progress the main story, clear these various quests to level up. It's also efficient to collect Oracle Stones at the same time.

Unlock Weekly Boss and Auctions

Clearing Chapter 3 unlocks the Auction in the New Herland District area and the weekly boss The Never-ending Arachne. At the Auction, you can bid on items, and you can also obtain valuable items like the Gluttonous Eye, which allows you to earn Fons weekly.

Don't Rush from Day 1
You can quickly reach the point of clearing Episode Quest Chapter 3 by diligently completing Exploration and quests, but since the content unlocked is a weekly task, there's no need to push yourself to get it done on the first day.
Next Chapter Unlocks Much Later

After clearing Episode Quest Chapter 3, the next chapter, Chapter 4, unlocks at Hunter Level 24. It becomes difficult to reach this level through Exploration alone, so level up slowly while completing your daily quests.
Purchase the Novis ST-X 950

You can get an Electric Scooter in the prologue, but its speed of 40km/h is a bit lacking. At the Regalia Vehicle Dealership, a motorcycle that can reach speeds of about 130km/h is sold for 250,000 Fons, and purchasing it will make travel much more comfortable. When you have some spare Fons, it's a good idea to buy it.
Regalia Vehicle Dealership Location

You can purchase the motorcycle at the Regalia Vehicle Dealership, located to the right of Eibon in the New Herland District.
Increase Tycoon Level
Complete Objectives and Earn Fons

The conditions for raising your Tycoon Level can be checked under Level Up in the City Tycoon menu. You can raise it by achieving the total amount of Fons earned and completing all displayed objectives. The objectives are displayed as tutorials in the Quests menu, so be sure to complete them when they appear.
Prioritize The Cafe by Origen

The Cafe by Origen, which unlocks at Tycoon Level 4, is content where you manage a 9°C Coffee to earn Fons. Revenue gradually increases with real-time progression, and the more you earn, the more the shop grows, so it's efficient to unlock and develop it early.
Earn Fons with City Stamina and Safes

You can earn Fons by using your weekly City Stamina, entering the Anomaly Zone: Realm of Greed at your home, and opening Safes found in the field during Exploration. Safes, in particular, are a one-time-only source but provide a large amount of Fons, making them recommended for earning Fons to raise your Tycoon Level.
Unlock Heists at Tycoon Level 10

By raising your Tycoon Level to 10, you will unlock Pink Paws Heist, which allows you to earn a large amount of Fons without consuming City Stamina. After unlocking it, you'll be able to collect Fons more efficiently.
Best Uses for City Stamina
Run More City Deliveries

In the mid-game, it's efficient to use your City Stamina on City Delivery. By completing more deliveries, you can upgrade the Old Mailbox, which gives you free Fons once a week, thereby increasing your Fons income. It's best to prioritize City Delivery until you have maxed out the level of your Anomaly Furniture.

Fishing is Recommended for Fons

Sea Angling, which unlocks at Tycoon Level 3, is also recommended and can be done at locations with fishing spot symbols. By selling the fish you catch at the Fish Market or Fish Hold, you can spend City Stamina to get Fons and Scale Coins, which can be exchanged for exclusive items.

Fish Market and Fish Hold Location

The Fish Market and Fish Hold can be accessed from the screen that appears after opening Hethereau Hobbies from the map and selecting Sea Angler. In particular, the Fish Market, which updates daily, allows you to exchange fish efficiently, so be sure to check it on days you go fishing.
Auto Mahjong Also Recommended

If you want to finish automatically, playing auto-mahjong with NPCs is also a good option. Although it takes time to consume stamina per game, you can finish using your stamina just by setting up auto-play for each match.

Spend Extra Time Racing

When you have spare time, it's also a good idea to steadily clear courses in Racing. It takes time to use up stamina, but you will receive "Annuliths" as a reward.

Owner's Selection is Recommended

When you purchase the second branch of The Cafe by Origen, you can challenge the Owner's Selection. The second branch is unlocked by raising the store level to 5, and you can also earn Annuliths as a reward for completing objectives. Additionally, if you have characters with useful Life Skills like Nanally or Baicang, you can clear it smoothly.

The second The Cafe by Origen branch, the Fiscus Avenue branch, is located in Illusion Town, to the upper left of Eibon.
Mid-Game Character Building
Build Around Obtained Characters

Use the Annuliths and various Gacha Stones you've acquired to build a well-synergized team around the S-Rank characters you've obtained. If you want to progress with your favorite characters, you can clear content without any issues using a team centered around them.
Best Team Builds and Compositions
Get Standard S-Ranks Through Selection

After 50 pulls on the standard gacha, you can choose and exchange for one S-Rank character in the Standard Board event. Even if you haven't directly obtained an S-Rank character from the gacha by the mid-game, you can reliably get one powerful S-Rank character, so it's recommended to choose one with your future team composition in mind.
| Note! | If you started playing during Ver. 1.0, you can obtain an additional character from a limited-time distribution. |
Best Free S-Class Characters to Pick
Enhance Attackers and Their Arcs

Once you've decided on a team, focus on leveling up and enhancing the Arc (weapon) of your main attacker. If you have spare materials, it's also a good idea to enhance your supporters and their skills in parallel.
Obtain and Train S-Rank Arcs (Weapons)
You can obtain Arcs (weapons) of the highest rank, S-Rank, from Exploration, Anomaly Commissions, and other sources. When training Arcs, it is recommended to prioritize S-Rank ones that have good synergy with your characters.

Farm for Consoles and Modules Later

You can obtain S-Rank Consoles from Rabbit Hole Difficulty III, which unlocks at Hunter Level 30 and beyond. Therefore, you should start farming for perfect ones after reaching Hunter Level 30.
Use What You Already Have

It's recommended to equip and level up the Consoles and Modules you already possess for training purposes. You can also fully recover the original materials by dismantling Consoles and Modules you no longer use.
| Note! | If you use an enhanced Console/Module directly as enhancement material, you will lose some of the EXP invested. Be sure to dismantle them for materials instead. |
