here uh we're gonna try to rapid fire these bad boys and let's get you geared up and ready to go my first tip is stamina now if you're just starting the game you might notice that your stamina bar is much smaller than mine well unfortunately when you start the game you don't have the maximum stamina bar unlocked so what you're going to want to do is find all of the animoculus and g-oculus around the map now if i go into my bag here this is one of the animoculus this is one of the geo-oculus these are things that you can find around the map but i've got a quick tip for you there is a gentian impact interactive map if you just google it it will show you all of the locations for these and what i recommend you do is use that map and go to your in-game map and mark them down you can actually put a little marker down you can get i think with the new patch like 150 of them so you can mark down everything you need go to that area clear it get it take it off whatever you need but make sure you get them all then what you're gonna do is go to a statue of the seven i'm gonna go teleport there right now and you can actually turn them in there for the animo so if you're doing one of the animo statues of the seven in monstat you can do that or if you go and get the jiaoculus you can do the ones uh in leeway and you can do the geo ones there this should be a priority especially the ones in monstat so that you're not running out of stamina the entire time hold on add break now you might notice your boy is looking better than ever that's because i'm decked out in some kingston

some kingston fury memory thank you so much for sponsoring this video and let's get back into the content tip number two focus on one or two characters to carry your team now you might notice that i've got a bunch of characters with weapons level 90 and different artifacts and all these things but i've played the game for like 9 months however i still have multiple characters at level 20 hardly leveled up no artifacts to be found no real weapons there aren't enough resources in-game to level everyone what i highly recommend you do is focus on just a couple of characters and max them out get them their weapons max out their talent levels give them artifacts and put all your resources into a couple characters that are going to carry you i know that tier lists might not be the best thing but if you go look at a tier list you see a couple characters that you have that are on that list you can kind of make it an assumption that they're going to be decent if they're a five star you know they're gonna be decent if you go and look and you might have one of these banner characters you're gonna be uh you know winning put a bunch of resources into them and they're gonna kick ass and they're gonna carry your team once you have leveled them up you can start considering getting some other support characters to help out but even with just one character with a four-star weapon leveled up and ready to go you can start pushing through content pretty damn easily and honestly if you really push your resources in uh you can like one bang a lot of enemies in the game early on now i've got one tip that's really going to help you early on you can get a free healer named barbara i believe at ar 18 which is really good but someone said the other day hey i don't have a polearm user i wish i did changling is one of the best characters in the game and you can get her super super easy early on all you have to do is beat floor 3 3 of the spiral abyss which is maybe daunting to some people i'll talk about that in a moment but this character slaps she can be a main dps doing physical damage with a crafted weapon called the crescent pike or she can be a support character uh an insanely good support character that can make your teams uh hit really hard with pyro damage she is godly as a character and she is free let me show you how to get it really quickly now there's an island over here where you can get to the spiral abyss you need to be a little bit higher until you're able to travel there but there's actually going to be a teleporter up on this ridge here that will teleport you there it's a small little puzzle you go into the teleporter and it will allow you to teleport right here now when you go into the spiral abyss there's multiple floors with multiple different enemies and as you make your way through you're gonna get a bunch of resources which is amazing oops let me back out here um this is you know 300 primo gems this is where you're going to get a lot of primo gems to do your initial wishes as you level up but each floor gets harder and harder right this floor is level 45 the next floor is level 50 and it's going to scale up from there that being said to get shingling you have to beat floor three three and this floor is easy it is so easy there's a bunch of slimes and basic enemies a bunch of treasure hoarders and uh the ruined guard is the hardest enemy there however you're level 45 if you just level up one character around 35 to 40 i guarantee with a little bit of practice you can beat this and get shang ling very early in the game and she's going to be a game changer so don't be scared of going in here and you know as you play through the game uh you're gonna make your way further in make sure you're doing this because this is also uh one of the main ways to get resources long term uh if you're looking for primo gyms you don't get as much in the later floors but they do reset and give you some artifacts floors 9 10 11 and 12 reset every couple of weeks as you level through the game you're going to get this adventure book with some very easy quests to do as you're playing but you've also got these commissions you need to do these commissions every single day because it gives you primo gems it gives you one of the biggest boosts to experience this is like the main way to level up in game uh and more primo gems when you complete all of them this is no joke for the amount of time this takes this is the main activity if you want to progress to the game and get your adventure rank up every day that you miss is a lot of experience lost it is primo gems that you're not getting and if you want to be wishing and getting five star characters this needs to be a priority now there's also information on all the different domains and things but you can also track different enemies and boss type characters in the game to get their different drops uh many of these are needed to ascend your weapons and characters and so this is something that you can actually go like this go and navigate track them down and slay them and it's something you can do every day especially early on now when you get a little bit higher level and you start exploring more you can go to this mountain called dragon spine now this area is a little bit tougher than some areas in the game because you get a freezing debuff that messes with you and takes away your health but there's some awesome chests and quests in here to find and also some free four star weapons that can change your gameplay now there's the snow tuned star silver you can actually get this uh you can get a weapon blueprint to craft it but you can also get a full-on sword for free just google how to get the snow tomb star silver i've got a video on it there's multiple videos of it it's just a little puzzle that you can do but getting this weapon relatively early could be good you can throw it on a character like beto which you're going to be getting for free this is beto and that's the character that's going to be available for free you can throw it on razer there's multiple characters that can use this weapon it's not god tier but it's still pretty damn good and free there's also a weapon here this dragon spine spear it's not absolutely amazing but there is a quest that you do uh that gives you all the resources to craft this so you can also get a spear which you can give to shang ling that you're getting for free as well from the spiral abyss so there's a couple of four-star weapons that are easily available uh there's this bow you get this fuvonius warbo as well for free for doing some of the early missions in game i believe when you beat one of the bosses don't want to spoil anything you get this bow for free so you're going to have options and you you're not going to be pressed to do enough damage now you might notice that a lot of my characters are leveled up one less than the maximum uh getting that extra level costs a lot of resources and depending on the world tier you're in you might not actually be able to ascend them to the next level so if you're at level 40 ascension get them to level 39 until you can take them to level 50. that way you're always passively getting experience and it does save you a lot of books long term all of my characters that are 89 out of 90 there is no level 100 and so i'm just passively getting experience you can see here i've got 85 000 experience over time while doing this on a couple different characters this one's got 50 he's got 87 and so it does add up over time and eventually you will get that level even if it takes you months as you find chests around the map you're going to get these sigils which you can turn into the souvenir shops there's one in each city and you can actually get more and different upgrade materials i want to show you really quickly now the sigils will allow you to get more as well as ascension materials really early on using these to ascend your characters to the next levels as well as some of your weapons can be a very big boost to your damage overall in early game you can also get some weapon blueprints or billets which you can get from both cities and this is a huge boost because some of the craftable weapons are fantastic and you can pretty much get one of every weapon type now some weapons are stronger than others you know others so let me talk about that really quickly as well from the big world bosses in the game you can get these prototypes to drop but unfortunately they are extremely extremely rare you can go weeks if not months without seeing one drop and this is nine months of hoarding and some of these are ones that i've got from some like quests uh as well as from purchase that i've never crafted anything so um you know it is it is definitely something that is important uh you can make some amazing weapons but i personally have been hoarding waiting for some better weapon choices and i want to explain that as well now there are a handful of weapons in here but until tomorrow when all of the new ones launched there's actually going to be a bunch of new weapons to craft in the game that are potentially better than everything we see here so i don't want to bait you into getting anything but there have been a lot of people that have got this prototype archaic this is a pretty solid weapon overall if you're looking for a main dps weapon um the crescent pike this is arguably one of the best weapons in the game because of the passive ability here and so there are a few in here uh that are definitely good my recommendation is before you craft anything because they're so rare is just look up a review on these weapons or see if there's any footage of different characters using it so you can get an idea uh if it's good on your character there's a lot of variables here depending on who you have so i don't want to bait you too early but there are a few great weapons for crafting and more are coming very soon soon with inazuma now i talked about leveling up some characters and focusing on just a couple but to do that you're going to need resin this is the most important resource in the game because when you're out of it well there's not as much to do this is what you need for every activity uh in the game you want to fight a boss and get the rewards you need resin you want to do a domain to get talent books for your character resin you want to get experience books for your character resin i think you get the point now the further you get into the game the more valuable each resin gets if you were just starting you would get far less experienced books than myself my recommendation is to do all the quests find the chests and do your daily commissions every day to get your adventure rank up so all the resin you're using is valuable and that goes for fragile resin which i need to talk about asap now i have a transient resin which is essentially a fragile resin but you're going to get them from leveling up your adventure rank and multiple different things in game i would highly recommend not spending any of your fragile resin until you are further in they are a consumable item that will actually give you resin to complete activities and you're gonna get like 50 of them as you play it is much more valuable to wait until your ar-40 ar-45 use them for artifacts or different you know domains and dungeons down the road than blowing it early yes you can level up sooner and that's cool and all but they definitely do get more valuable as you play the game so just be careful not using too too many if you really want to get an upgrade that's going to help you do what you got to do have fun with the game but just be careful now this item reminded me of something else that i personally don't love the sarana teapot the serena teapot is going to take a while to unlock and if you haven't played for a while it is going to take you some time to get adventure ranks and get to the quest needed but it actually allows you to get to a player-owned house if you will now this is something that for the most part is free to do uh you need to chop down some trees and get different resources so that you can play however there are some great resources from this now as you play through and you get all the blueprints and uh you start leveling up you'll actually be able to buy extra resin each week for free as well as things like mora that you can get for free this is always really valuable it is a bit of a slog but being able to unlock this and get these resources without having to spend resin is very valuable and the sooner you start the sooner you benefit there are also these special sets that you can work towards and you can actually invite characters to get rewards as well as primo gems and so it's very valuable long term and i should definitely recommend this because it's like thousands of primo gems that you can get now another thing too is like every gotcha game unfortunately there is a lot of content that goes away this whole little area here behind me this whole cool area where you get to ride a boat and do all these things it's going away in 19 hours it's gone so if you are just jumping in try to get as much of this completed as you can there's a bunch of chests and different quests and stuff here but unfortunately a lot of the content in this game comes and then it goes so whenever there is an event on make sure you do it because many times the rewards are amazing uh you don't have to use any resin to get them and they can be absolute game changers in the case of this one it gave primo gems experience and even a free outfit and there's other ones that are going on all the time so make sure whenever a new event pops make all that progress you can each day and make sure you don't slack on these because if you're a free-to-play player this is make or break for your account for the most part now as you start playing the game and getting primo gems from chests and quests and these different events there's multiple banners that you can wish on now this is the character event banners the character event wish and this gives you a 50 50 chance at getting this banner character or one of the other five star characters now if you get one of the other five star characters the next five star will automatically be this character the four stars on the banner will also have an increase rate up to get them and um you know chances are if you wish on this banner a bunch you're gonna get a bunch of these copies you can see here i've got a razor i've got a dragon's band which is a random weapon but then i've got rosaria i've got another razor i'm always getting these characters but i got a chichi here which was not the main character so the next one i get whether it is this banner or another banner the next one that's coming in just 16 hours i can get that character if i choose now i gotta still get lucky and you know get the wish but it's something to consider is your pity will carry over from this banner to the next now the weapon banner is a little bit bait but it is getting better currently uh you could spend two thousand dollars on this banner and it wouldn't go one and then the other you could get the same one over and over again or a bunch of different weapons it is pretty crazy now they've made it so that uh if you get two of the wrong weapon you can then get the the next one on the third one but it's hundreds of dollars hundreds of dollars of primo gems uh tons of saving if you're trying to do that the weapon banner i think is a bit of bait and the reason i say that is because the normal banner the normal banner is something that you will get wishes as you level up in the game uh from different rewards from from different activities you will get to wish on this um you know over time and you will get some five star characters but you will also get some five star weapons eventually now even though these characters and these weapons are on the banner there there's no right up on this banner everything is an equal shot at getting it i would never spend any of your primo gems or buy any of these blue acquaint fates from the shop because this is just like the the bonus banner just a little bonus banner you wish on it eventually you get something fun out of it but it's not a priority that's the way i see it now speaking of the shop let's go over there because that's important too i would never recommend to spend money but if you are going to spend money the blessing of the welcome moon i suppose is the best bang for your buck it gives you like 3 000 primo gems over the course of the month which is pretty good considering it's 699 canadian so it's like five bucks american but again i don't recommend spending money in this game now the battle pass is always really good as well it's not currently available as of me making this video but the battle pass you can get it by pressing f4 uh if you're on psd the battle pass is definitely pretty good as well but the main thing i wanted to talk about are the the other things available in here so there are characters that you can actually purchase uh with this star glitter you get this from um wishing for characters and getting different characters and weapons uh you can also purchase wishes flat out and there's also some weapons like these black cliff weapons that are actually pretty good because they've got crit damage now this is tough because depending where your account is you might need different things getting a character and getting constellations makes them stronger but it is 34. you could also use those same 34 and get five uh or seven more wishes almost right that's almost seven wishes which could get you towards pity for a five star so there's a lot of different ways you can argue how to spend it but i would consider holding on to 34 at any moment in time because there's characters like shin cho and bennett that will be in the shop here that are game changing 4 star characters that i would recommend getting so as you wish through the game you can buy these wishes if you really really want but i would personally hold on to this star glitter as much as you can as for star dust this is a little bit easier to get and one of the nice things is every new month so in 12 days uh you actually can get five of each type of wish uh for free now you need to do wishes in order to get that currency but typically like i've never spent money in this game on this account and um i was able to like i'm able to get all these wishes and uh i've never missed out on any of them so as long as you are wishing doing quest doing chess getting all the primo gems you will be able to afford these things long term but all of these materials if you're free to play i would never recommend buying you will regret it and for the love of god do not buy this stuff if you buy this you are brain dead all of this stuff is farmable from enemies uh that's your last warning okay now in the new update you can also get a beto for free i don't know exactly which day but this is an awesome four-star character and if you start getting a few of her constellations like c2 she becomes an amazing character overall so keep your eyes peeled and make sure when that event is on you do everything you need to get the four-star character because that's essentially getting you know 10 free wishes uh you know handed to you right there and beto is pretty sweet but the other thing that i wanted to talk about is the main character a lot of people don't talk about the main character uh because they're the main character they're the first character you get in inazuma their electro element looks to be extremely good and so even if you've seen videos saying that this character sucks that isn't going to be the case moving forward and even the animal character that it currently is is much stronger than it was because of recent buffs a lot of videos unfortunately are going to be outdated don't worry about leveling this character i think it's actually a pretty good decision it's one of the cheapest characters to level because you don't need a bunch of resin you can actually get this just from getting adventuring and leveling up in the game which is really really cool speaking of the different elements there are you know pyro hydro we've got animo what the hell do they all do we got cryo it is important to know all the different elemental reactions but also what putting different elements in your part you can do for your team by placing multiple different elements in your team you can get these different elemental resonance so if you place two flame characters on your team your entire team will get 25 increased attack if you have two water characters you'll get more healing and so it's important to mix and match and put characters in that will give your team some extra value on top of this it's important to know all of the elemental reactions if you hit something with cryo and you apply cryo and then you hit them with pyro and melt it you're gonna get a big two times damage multiplier i recommend looking on the websites uh that are available to see all the different reactions i would put it in the video but honestly it would take quite a while to show off all the different interactions and talk about what they do there's already videos of that on youtube and you can just look that up honestly uh i think that's your best course of action also also food buffs in the game are extremely important now there's a bunch of different healing items as you go but as you get further into the game there are some insane pieces of food that will give you attack damage as well as crit rate if you ever feel like you're struggling in content look to craft some of the food that you can get early on that will boost your attack it can be an absolute game changer and um you know these things typically last like you know five minutes up to 15 minutes depending on the ones you craft now there's also uh stuff like the buoyant breeze or the barbados ratatouille this is very easy to get i've done a guide on how to get the barbados ratatouille as well this reduces your stamina from sprinting around the map as well as gliding and so things like this can be really good for exploring i used to use this all the time when i first started the game and uh it helped out a lot while trying to hunt for all the chests and domains dungeons all sorts of different content is going to get much harder and the enemies are going to be much higher level you know going from level 38 to 88 is a big change and unfortunately depending on the weapons and characters you get some of them might be very difficult for you but there is co-op available in game you can see right there don't be afraid to do co-op some people are going to carry you and they're not going to mind because sometimes they're doing some activities to get some primo gems they're doing some achievements in game so don't be afraid to do co-op just try your best and this can be a nice boost if you are in a new world tier and struggling weapons are very important for your characters obviously you're gonna want some five star weapons if you can but a lot of the four star weapons like the stringless here some of these are insane almost best in slot even though they are at four star now many weapons game you know they're obviously from the gotcha but there are some different event weapons that pop up from time to time which are insanely strong as well i wouldn't recommend ever wishing on the weapon banners to try to get the weapons i would keep going for characters over weapons because you can craft many weapons to fill in the gaps i've already kind of talked about this but it's just something that i wanted to talk about is you will get weapons over time and don't stress out if you don't have a five star early on i don't think it's really necessary because a lot of your damage comes from artifacts artifacts are extremely important in the game and uh it is going to take you a long time to get you know a whole bunch of gold artifacts it is going to take you time but i have a recommendation here as you ascend characters they will drop as you do world bosses they will drop and you can do domains for them as well but i would not recommend doing it until you are at the highest world tier 4 that i think it's ar 45 because every single time you do the domain you get a gold piece to drop and so the value per resin spent is much higher when you're at ar 45 you'll be able to compete you'll be able to hang don't stress out too much and don't be farming it any earlier even though you can see the gold ones here it's a pretty low chance it's like one in three and you're gonna blow so much resin getting trash and you're gonna be stressed out and while talking about artifacts i have something very important elemental cups are one of the biggest boosts to damage that you can get if you get a purple cup or a gold cup i don't care what set it is if it has an element on it early on you need to hold on to it for most characters in the game you're going to try to get a set bonus right two or four pieces and more often than not the cup is the off piece that isn't in the set because it is very rare to get the element you need as well as some good stats on it as well it's very very tough to get that stuff so make sure you hold on to them because you're going to desperately wish you did if you end up deleting a good one uh it's it's tough i think i've gotten one of these cryo-damaged ones like in the history of my account not not even kidding it is so tough sometimes so please for the love of god hold on to elemental cups blue crystals are very important to farm and i highly recommend using the gentian impact interactive map to mark them down or if you happen to run across something mark them down on the map so you can go back there every few days i think it's 72 hours for them to respawn and you can use them to craft the main weapon upgrade material here uh you can craft these mystic enhancement ore it takes thousands of these to fully level up a weapon and so starting sooner rather than later is a big perk but i've got a guaranteed way for you to get crystals every day at the adventures guild in each city you can do expeditions these are just passive ways to get resources and you should be doing these every single day you can get things like mora you can get different uh you know crafting materials for food items but make sure you're doing the crystals every day and there's also going to be down the road multiple regions that you can do this in using multiple characters this is an important feature it does add up over time and you might be wondering why are you trying to get some radish and some carrots well i've got an explanation the parametric transformer as you play through the game you're going to get this parametric transformer i think it's like ar 30 or 35 it is something where you can take one material and turn it into experience books talent books weapon ascension materials it's a free way to get resources for trading in food items and other basic things that you've got a ton of i've got 700 carats ready to go and i funnel this in every week it's not something you can do right at the beginning of the game but it's something to pay attention to now there's a bunch of other gadgets in here that are important and i really want to recommend getting a treasure compass now for me i would recommend working on the geo treasure compass first and i want to explain how you do that so each city has its own reputation and there's multiple quests you can do each week however there's only so many quests you can do each week and if you do them in monstat you can't do them in the other city so you need to pick and choose which one you want to focus on for me i would do this city first leo it's going to take a while to get there and be ready for this like ar2025 kind of thing before you really make your way over here and so if you want to do a few in monstat it is what it is i don't actually know when this opens up but i would highly recommend focusing on this let me go over there and show you there are multiple reputation levels that give you different gadgets and at level six you get the treasure compass now you can do these bounties and requests each week but also in the inazuma region there's going to be that as well you can also get uh get reputation for doing exploration as well as quests in the area so you'll naturally gain reputation as you play but if you want to push into the higher levels you need to do these every single week and it is a bit of a slog but the thing is is with this compass when i press the button you can see here it is actually tracking to see if there's any chests that i haven't opened in the area and if there is it will point me in the direction of it this has got me hundreds of chests so much experience tons of resources because i found pretty much every chest in the game because of this i run around the map spamming this and every time i pick one up i i i get you know a couple of resources and even nine months in the game i still find stuff there are so many hidden ones that you would never think to look there and you're going to get um you know a lot of bang for your buck here so make sure to get that in both regions and use it and i'm guessing there will be one in the new region in azuma as well so keep your eyes peeled for that and one of my final ones is there are redeemable codes if you go to my twitch twitch.tv slash m and go exclamation point codes you can see some there but if you just google free primo gem codes there are typically different codes that are available for you to enter that's pretty much it those are my main tips i think i covered all the main stuff that i i think will help you early on if you're a new player uh there might be some amazing tips though if you have a great tip to share with everyone put it in the comment section down below share it with the world you can read through the comments hopefully it will help you out uh thank you so much for watching i hope you enjoyed and make
