Basic grids banner.png

A large portion of your team strength is determined by your weapon grid. Listed below are basic grids for each element, as well as a glimpse at the next step, so you have an idea of how a grid evolves as you progress. This is meant to be a starting point for your grids before you begin tackling harder raids, which will give you better weapons. Depending on your pace, it may not be necessary to fully farm each grid listed below.

Q & A

Djeeta think chibi.png Q: Wait, what's "Magna"?
Omega is known as Magna in Japanese which is commonly used by the community.
  • Beginner Omega grids are sometimes referred to as "M1" for Magna 1.
  • The upgrade to M1 grids unlocked at rank 120 are "M2", or Magna 2.

For more terminology, see the Glossary.

Gran Read chibi.png Q: How do I tell weapon skills apart?
Each weapon skill has a unique icon that shows what it boosts and what modifier it is:
  • Ws skill atk m 1 2.pngWs skill atk m 1 3.png - Omega skills have a Ω symbol
  • Ws skill atk a 1 1.pngWs skill atk a 1 5.png - EX skills have a EX symbol
  • Normwepsk.pngWs skill atk 1 3 2.png - Normal skills will have no symbol or will have II or III depending on its strength
  • Some weapons come with unique skill icons like Ws skill baha 3.png or Ws skill job weapon.png where you will have to visit the individual weapon wiki page to learn about it, or read about them on this page.

As a beginner, you will want one or two EX and Normal attack skills in your grid with the rest of the weapon skills being Omega attack modifiers.
For more information, see Weapon Skills or Damage Formula.

General Tips

Free Completion Rewards

  • Complete Main Quests to receive uncapped weapons and to unlock raids, free quests, and Side Stories (some of which will allow you to recruit free SSR characters). Clearing at least Chapter 62 Story: Stars Beyond the Sky is recommended to unlock most pre-rank 101 content.
  • Clear the free quest Chapter 30 (44/65) Quest: Inchoate World to unlock Arcarum: The World Beyond as soon as possible.
    • Arcarum Badge square.png Arcarum Passports are required to play Arcarum. One Passport is granted per day, but only after Arcarum is unlocked. Weekly missions require 7 Passports to be used per week, making unlocking Arcarum and using Passports a priority regardless of which stage of the game you're at. The mission arcapoint rewards can be left in the crate until they are needed, and can allow you to bypass the 50,000 holding cap for arcapoints.
  • Clear these Side Stories as soon as you can to jump-start your progression:

How to get Grid Weapons

  • To farm a specific raid, use the in-game raid finder.
  • Icon Renown Pendant.pngRenown Pendants can be used to buy Rarity SSR.png weapons from the Pendant Shop. Items in the Shop are restocked at the top of every month, with the exception of Weapon s 1040007200.jpg Luminiera Sword Omega, which has a lifetime limit of 10. The amount of pendants you can get per month is limited, so use them wisely.
  • Daily Points, earned from the Daily Bonus, can be traded for Rarity SSR.png weapons, including weapons otherwise exclusive to limited-time events like Xeno Clashes and Proving Grounds. Keep in mind these weapons cannot be fully uncapped without participating in the respective event while it is running.
Standard Omega Raids, also known as M1 raids.

How to get EXP / Skill Level Fodder

  • Simply participating in the monthly new story event, commonly referred to as "Boxing" events, is the easiest way to acquire Rarity SR.png and Rarity SSR.png skill fodder. These usually occur at the end of every month.
  • The next best way is to do your daily Omega Raids for Rarity SR.png and Rarity SSR.png fodder and Rarity SSR.png grid weapons.
  • Farming Arcarum: The World Beyond will occasionally drop Rarity SSR.png weapons.
  • EXP fodder, or Upgraders, can be farmed from the Angel Halo quest.

Grid Optimization

Katalina beginner bubble.png Beginner Tip!
A weapon's Skill Level is more important than its EXP Level.
Be sure to skill up weapons that you know you will be using for a while!
  • Set up a basic grid of 0★ weapons before you uncap them with extra copies. In most cases, uncapping weapons will only give them extra raw ATK and HP, which is generally less valuable than having another of the weapon skill in your grid.
    • i.e. It is better to have four 0★ Rarity SSR.png weapons than a single 3★ Rarity SSR.png weapon.
  • Summons that are not your main summon do not have to match the element you are playing. As a beginner, it's better to equip summons that have the highest stats.
  • If you hit a wall in progression, leveling up weapon skills is the most effective way of gaining grid strength. However, skill fodder is hard to come by in the early game, so use them wisely.
  • Be sure to use Journey Drop icon.pngJourney Drops for Upgrade EXP and Grand Success Rate whenever upgrading weapons to save on fodder!
Djeeta think chibi.png Q: What is PWR? Does it matter?
PWR, the indicator on the top left of your Home screen, is simply the sum of your weapons' ATK and HP. It doesn't take weapon skills into consideration.
It is almost entirely useless as a metric for actual power.

Premium Draw Weapons

Katalina beginner bubble.png Beginner Tip!
Keep your SSR Premium Draw weapons in your crate,
or favorite and stash them so you don't accidentally fodder them.
  • It is recommended to keep all Premium Draw SSR weapons in your crate, because it acts as infinite storage. If you absolutely must claim your weapons from your crate, it's best to Favorite them and store them in a safe space, such as a stash.
    • Do not combine copies by uncapping them, as some grids require multiple copies of one weapon.
  • A majority of the SSR weapons received from pulling in Premium Draw will go unused, especially as a beginner, because their skills are primarily boosted by Optimus SummonsAlso called "Primal" Summons by the playerbase.. Often, both the weapons and the summon must be fully uncapped for best performance in a grid, which requires rare consumable materials like Sunlight Stone square.jpg Sunlight Stones and Damascus Ingot square.jpg Damascus Ingots.
    • In general, premium draw weapons are not useful in grids that are boosted by Omega Summons.
    • It is not recommended to invest into an Optimus grid until the player has a deep understanding of grid building, to ensure optimal usage of rare uncap materials.

The Power of Amplify

  • Seraphic Weapons provide "Amplify" skills. Because of how the Damage Formula works, these boost your final damage, which makes them very strong even at SR rarity.
  • Always equip a Seraphic Weapon and sub-aura summons (e.g. Arcarum series) when their in-battle conditions are met (usually, when your team is the advantaged element).
    • When using a character with an "Amplify All Element Allies' Damage" passive in your front row, keep in mind that this effect does not stack with the Seraphic Weapons' "Amplify" skill. Only the highest value takes effect.
  • Seraphic Weapons: Acquire these as soon as you're able to.
    • Upgrading the tetra elementFire, Water, Earth, and Wind weapons requires clearing stages of the Primarch Trials, which are limited to 2 attempts daily, with attempts shared across the four elements.
    • Clearing What Makes the Sky Blue II: Paradise Lost is required to unlock Light and Dark Seraphic weapons.
  • Arcarum Summons: Get the SR "Amplify" summon for every element first, upgrading as you go until they are SSR. Then start working on your desired Evoker.
