START HERE / FIRST SESSION
Your first session,
with a little direction.
Follow the opening Adventure tasks, claim reported code rewards, and give your team protection, damage and recovery. When progress stops, first read the requirement: Pilot level, Phantom EXP and a breakthrough are separate problems.[1][2]
Get a stable starting point.
- Confirm your game and account. Match HOWLYO GAME’s official listing and note the server and sign-in method.[1]
- Follow the current Adventure task. Use the requirement actually visible in the game to choose the next action, rather than opening every late-game menu.
- Collect reported rewards before deciding what to buy. Profile → Gift Code is the reported redemption route. The code finder shows reward types and source limits.
- Read the units you have. Look for the role or skill your squad lacks before replacing a unit simply because another has a higher rarity.
A useful starting point is a recognizable account, a functional team and a specific next task. It does not require restarting until you pull one particular rare character.
Build functions before chasing a rank.
The client help describes Preservation for protection, Destruction for area damage, Frenzied Blade for burst damage and Healing Grace for recovery.[2] Use those functions to diagnose the squad, rather than reading them as a universal tier list.
| What happens | What to inspect first |
|---|---|
| The front line falls quickly | Protection, positioning and the skill intended to keep that position alive. |
| The team survives but cannot finish the target | Damage role, target selection and whether the chosen skills support the same plan. |
| Units collapse in longer fights | Recovery and whether it takes effect before the team is overwhelmed. |
| A new rare unit looks weaker | Its present level, unlocked skills and investment; a future ceiling is not immediate performance. |
Change one thing at a time and retry the same task. That helps separate a formation problem from a shortage of materials. These are diagnostic choices, not measured damage rankings.

Give each upgrade a purpose.
The help connects skill unlocking with breakthroughs.[2] Open the character you are actually using, read the next upgrade requirement, and decide whether it answers the problem you just observed.
If a unit is missing a breakthrough material, pulling a replacement does not establish that the shortage has been solved. If Adventure asks for a higher Pilot level, spending character EXP answers a different screen. Use the EXP and level-gate table before choosing a farming action.
The official description includes offline growth.[1] Returning later can be part of progression, but this guide does not promise an hourly rate, storage cap or time to clear a chapter.
When a menu is locked.
The community condition table separates player level and server day. It lists Phantom Spirit Rank with both Player Lv. 24 and Server Day 2.[3] A level target alone would not satisfy that reported condition.
Check the exact menu name. A feature lock, character breakthrough and Pilot-level requirement are separate decisions. If a screen names a day condition, more character EXP does not address that condition.
A useful place to stop.
- You know your account and server.
- Your team has an intended answer to incoming damage and a way to deal damage back.
- You can name the requirement blocking the next task.
- You have picked one next action: adjust formation, collect the correct resource, or wait for a stated condition.
When you return, compare the same requirement before changing the plan. That is easier to learn from than changing your entire squad and upgrade spending at once.
