    You use gods/crystals to level up your units. Fusing units of matching elements gives you an extra 50% exp. When you hit the level cap then it's time to evolve your unit for a nominal fee and required units listed. The gold jewels are for selling and just for selling.

    The 5 free gems can be used for a lot of things. You can use all 5 of them to get another pull from the Rare Summon gate, use 1 gem to expand your item inventory or unit list, or just hold on to them until the Rare Summon gate has a special rate up going on (new units just got released, but it doesn't look like a rate up atm) Personally I would hold on to them until there's a special rate up for new units or popular units.

    For upgrading your town, I would focus on sphere and synthesis first. You can drop a few into the terrain as well but I find you don't get anything really special from them.

    Finally, there's a list of everyone's ID you can look up. Send a few friend invites to us as most if not all of us are rolling with 7* units that will pretty much bulldoze all the early level stuff.

Basically, it looks like I should hold on to the Elemental Gods/Crystals, as well as the Frogs, and sell all of the jewels (830K).

    Questions:

    Should I use any of the Gods/Crystals on Selena/Elulu/Luna, or keep any of the Golden Gods?
    I also haven't spent the 5 free gems; should I hold on to them and try to save up for the current bonus 5x pull, from the Claire's batch, or just YOLO them?
    What should I focus on first, for Town Upgrades, or is it just stay away from Mountain/Farm and do the others as you can?

    Yeah that's going to be a grind for sure, and Centurion boss is no joke.

    I'm having unit overload. Trying to come up with a good squad for frontier gate using all these new shiny units I have. Ultor/Tridon with spheres. Lots of other 7 stars. A fresh Edea. I wonder if I can get away with using just Edea for status cleanse with the FG f25 sphere. Not sure how to pair these guys up.

    I sent a friend request to anyone who's been active in the past month, here, and was on the prior ID list. Thanks for the friend help I've used so far. My current team is Selena, Tinkerer Elulu, Luna, Breaker Frog, and Dark Crystal.

    Due to gorging on the Honor System event, I am rather low on unit space, which is filled with mostly Gods/Crystals/Frogs. A few questions to help deal with it:

    I really don't know what the typical unit leveling process is, for this game, Is there a preferred way of leveling units, aside from feeding like to like, for bonus exp? PAD had some general rules, to go by, and I did find this. I was able to get Selena evolved to her next form, but eating a Water God would waste about 30K exp. Tinkerer Elu and Luna are viable though, so I could get a quick boost there, and ease up some inventory, but I don't know if I should really focus on them, or try to save the Gods/Crystals for later pulls; I'm 15/25 gems away for a 5x pull and the extra unit gift seems like something worth-while to a F2P player. I'm at the last stage, of Mistrel, and bosses tend to knock one of my units out, so it feels like I need to do some leveling asap, so whether it's eat gods/crystals, or re-farm lower levels, I'll need to do something soon.

    Are any of the normal monster drops worth keeping? I've seen the Healer Girls listed (I think I have all of them) and the mono filler farmables (Luna,Weiss,Mifune,Zephu,Zegar and Lario), but unless it's listed here, are they worth keeping at all?

    I have a lot of excess Nymphs, and they seemed pretty easy to get, so unless I have a unit that needs it right now, it seems like I should toss them, yes?

    Appreciate the help as I learn the ropes. I may have some questions, about Arena, in my next post. Side Note: Compared to PAD, this game's event really seems to help out if you spend a few bucks. Lots of leveling fodder, for all of the rolls you get, but I digress.

    With FH this weekend and all the gems from downtime I managed to get a few pulls and snagged 3 Deimios. The rest were straight dooky-tier. Falma, mega, tree, Phoenix, bolt knight Amy .....

    Managed to 7* 2 of my Deimios just need to max out their levels and farm the spheres for them.

    You can only make one of those spheres so I'm not sure there a lot of utility in multiple Deimios.

    Leveling units is nothing like PAD. There's no bonus exp for like to like fusing. You'll use Ghosts, Kings, Gods, and Crystals to level your units. When they hit their level cap, elite them and start the leveling process over again.

    Also, do NOT fuse away any unit you get from the Rare Summon Gate. Even if you get multiple copies of the same unit, you can cash in the extra copies to the Achievement Store for points. Nymphs are easily farmable evolution materials so there is zero need to hold on to them.

    Pretty much as far as farmable units go, what you listed is correct. Zegar, Zephu, Weiss, Lario, Luna, Mifune, are capturable starting on the St. Lamia map onwards. You'll encounter them sooner but can't capture them until the third map of the first realm.

    In all honesty I would hold on to your gems for now. While the 5+1 summon seems like a good deal, I guarantee you that Gumi will be doing a popular unit collection again spanning the course of a week. Last time they did that, they were offering a free unit for every 5 summons from the pool of about 36 meta-tier units. Of course, it's your gems so spend them however you'd like. If anything I would use them to increase your unit and item capacity because being 99/100 units constantly drove me insane and I dumped a bunch of gems to alleviate that. I'm at about 450 unit space and have zero regrets using gems for that. I can farm a buttload of exp fodder and evolution material without worry.

    I thought that fusing water units, to a water unit, gave you 50% more exp, or is the wiki wrong?

    I don't mind holding on to gems, if there's not a good event around. I'll keep an eye out for the event you mentioned.

    You do get bonus EXP for fusing same elements (1.5x). Also chance at GREAT(1.5x) and Super Success (2x).

    This bonus only applies to the ghosts, Kings, gods, and crystals of the corresponding elements and Mimics (for dark elements). Regular units you acquires from quests do not get "like for like" bonus exp.

    He can also get Mifune and Lario as rewards.

    Did 5 yolo pulls with the free gems and tickets. All dupes but got Deimos as my bonus. He's good yes?

    Yes. Refer to Xerte's write up on Reddit of Deimos vs Ultor usage.

    I'm not sure what the point in calling this out is? You shouldn't be using anything else to really level up your units or you're going to be bleeding zel at the early stages when you may not be swimming in it.

    I actually do appreciate the clarification, coming from PAD. I've been noticing that normal units are a Zel bleed, so I won't be doing a lot more of it, but I also don't have a large base of some elemental Gods/Crystals atm, so I'm sort of holding off on using them unless it's a good unit which, ATM, is only Selena/Lario and maybe Elu. Luna seems to die really easy, now that I'm past Mistrel, and it seems she gets focused a lot. I suppose I should get a healer girl in there, to help out, or just spam cures. Still feeling out how to properly progress here, because, without high level friend help, things are a lot rougher, even though I've maxed my levels, until I clear the quests to access all of the spirit types.

    I also don't quite get how hearts work, as they don't seem to go to the unit that needs them most; same with BC crystals, so I suppose it's all random? Chest hearts do seem to go for units that really need it though.
