First Things To Do

The starter tab points new players toward a very simple opening loop:

Your first priority is momentum, not perfection. Push Mainstream first, collect event rewards as they come, and leave deeper optimization for after the account has real resources.

  1. Progress the Mainstream campaign.
  2. Clear missions and active events as you go.
  3. Pick up summon tickets from achievement rewards tied to story viewing and sector clears.

The sheet frames this as the safest way to build momentum without over-investing in side systems too early.

Mileage and Gacha Strategy

The biggest warning in the starter tab is about not spending mileage carelessly.

Pickup mileage

The source recommends saving pickup mileage primarily for Cosmic characters. It also marks a few spender-oriented premium options as especially tempting, but the baseline advice is still conservative:

  • use pickup mileage on premium, account-shaping units
  • avoid panic spending early
  • do not force value from mediocre banners just because mileage is available

Standard mileage

The standard shop includes some early characters and Arcana, but the source guide says it is generally safer to use this currency on high-priority Arcana breakthroughs than to gamble on low-control boxes.

The tab is especially negative on random Savior boxes because Cosmic characters are not included.

Selector Priorities

The starter sheet repeatedly anchors decisions around Asherah Waltz, even when that specific unit is not available in every free selector.

High-level takeaways from the source tab:

  • Asherah Waltz is the best overall account-shaping unit when available.
  • Lacy is the safest broadly useful fallback among non-Waltz choices.
  • Seira, Luna, and Elisa gain value if you care strongly about PvP.
  • Lydia is a more specialized pick for content that values action-gauge control and speed reduction.

The sheet’s wording makes it clear that general progression value should usually beat narrow PvP specialization on a fresh account unless you know exactly what you are building toward.

Quasar Core Guidance

The Quasar Core section is the most “do not rush this” part of the starter tab.

  • Use Quasar Core carefully.
  • The later you spend it, the more informed the decision becomes.
  • If Asherah Waltz is still in the 0 to 2-star range, the sheet strongly favors using the resource there first.
  • If Waltz is already in a healthy star state, Elisa becomes a much more attractive follow-up target.

The source also emphasizes that the gap between low-star and functional-star states can be very large for some units, so this is not a “spread the love” resource.

First-Week Checklist

Use this simplified version of the starter tab’s intent:

  • Finish your reroll decision before binding the account.
  • Push Mainstream and event clears before side farming.
  • Save mileage until you understand your real account gaps.
  • Use selectors to stabilize your core four, not to chase niche luxuries.
  • Delay expensive breakthrough-style resources until you know who will anchor the account.

Once your core account is formed, the next best pages are Team Building and Gear Guide.
