Beginner Guide: Union Level 1-60

Union Level 1-20: Tutorial Phase

Focus On

  • Complete Main Story (The Rover's journey)
  • Follow quest markers
  • Use Beginner Banner (guaranteed 5★ in 50 pulls)
  • Play with whoever you get

Avoid

  • Don't spend Astrite randomly
  • Don't level too many Resonators
  • Don't worry about Echo substats yet

UL 20-35: Exploration Phase

Priorities

  1. Progress Main Story to unlock content
  2. Unlock all Resonance Beacons (teleports)
  3. Daily Quests (don't miss any!)
  4. Pick 1-2 Main DPS to focus on

Character Investment

  • Level main DPS to cap first
  • Forte > Character Level for DPS
  • Weapons matter more than you think

Common Mistakes

❌ Ignoring Daily Quests (free Astrite!) ❌ Leveling everyone equally ❌ Wasting Waveplates on low-level content

UL 35-45: Team Building Phase

Time to Focus

  • Build your main team of 3
  • Start farming Echoes seriously
  • Learn about team synergies
  • Save for limited banners

  • 1 Healer (Verina/Baizhi)

Waveplate Usage

Priority Activity

UL 45-55: Pre-Endgame

Getting Serious

  • Farm Tacet Fields for Echo sets
  • Clear Tower of Adversity (endgame prep)
  • Build second team for Tower
  • Weekly bosses for 4-COST Echoes

Data Bank Leveling

  • Higher Data Bank = Better Echo drops
  • Farm overworld to level it
  • Don't skip Data Bank upgrades

UL 55-60: Endgame

You Made It!
