Tales of Crestoria features a very interesting anime story, turn-based battles, unique characters, 3D graphics, and much more. This game guide is especially for f2p players because, as a P2P/P2W player, you buy anything and everything you can in the game.

 

In this article, free-to-play players will find useful tips to save resources and how they can farm more resources in a short amount of time. So, without further ado, let's get started with the Tales of Crestoria guide.

 

Gleamstones:

 

Gleamstones is the most valuable in-game currency in Tales of Crestoria. You can buy Gleamstones with real money, or you can get them free from in-game modes. It's a slow process, but you will have a lot of Gleamstones if you save them long enough. So, be patient and collect every free Gleamstones in the game.

 

You can also get free Gleamstones by completing your daily quests. If you complete nine quests, you will get 20 free Gleamstones daily. To complete your nine daily quests, you will have to unlock RAID because one of the quests will ask you to clear a Raid.

 

You can get up to 50-70 Gleamstones from daily quests (depends on the quests), including other rewards like in-game currency/coins. Make sure to unlock RAID if you haven't yet. Also, complete your daily quests as soon as possible to get your hand on those 20 Gleamstones.

 

Rank Level:

 

 

The rank level is one of the few things you need to focus on at the beginning. There is one important reason to focus on leveling up your rank, and that is to increase the max stamina cap. If you are new at Tales of Crestoria, then you would be around 20-30 stamina maximum.

 

Leveling up will increase that limit cap, which is quite important to progress in the game. As you start doing daily quests, missions, and other quests, among other things, you will need a lot of stamina. Stamina regenerates automatically, and it stops regenerating once the limit is reached.

 

Stamina and rank levels are connected. If you want to increase the rank level faster, you will need a lot of stamina. You will also need to increase your rank level if you want to increase the stamina cap. So, you have to put your focus on it as soon as possible.

 

Completing the story allows you to level up quickest without consuming too much stamina. The reason is that you can farm a lot of stamina in a short amount of time from each level you complete in story mode.

 

DPS Damage Dealer:

 

DPS characters are the key characters in almost every game. If you want to progress further and dominate other players, your DPS character needs to be at a high level. As a beginner or a F2P player, your DPS matters most. You do not need to spend your resources on any other characters.

 

Resources are quite hard to farm, hours of grinding, and farming should be utilized in the best way possible, your DPS characters. Your DPS characters will carry you through a lot of quests and missions at the beginning. You will only need other characters when you are at a high level or playing arena, etc.

 

So, focus on your DPS characters and save some resources for your other characters and keep them safe until you are ready to level up your other characters. Also, it is the best move to level up one character at a time because having multiple low-level characters is nothing compared to one high-level DPS.

 

Elixir and Memoria Stones:

 

 

Use your Elixir and Memoria stones as soon as you get them; do not save them. They provide experience to your character, and the best part is you can always achieve them quite easily. So, do not save them unless you are saving those for a specific character.

 

The only resource you need to save is the resource you need to ascend in Tales of Crestoria. Those resources can only be farm through hard quests, and they are named hard for a reason. So, keep those resources safe, especially for your DPS characters.

 

Phantom Tower:

 

Phantom Tower should be your aim if you want to become one of the best players in Tales of Crestoria. Phantom Tower challenges are very hard, and the rewards are impressive too. There's just one problem; you can never know how strong you need to clear those challenges until you try by yourself.

 

The best part about the Phantom Tower is that it's your monthly challenges. Complete the challenges as many as you can up to level 30, and then it will reset automatically within 30 days. You can then farm again and repeat this process every month. The only change you will see every month will be in the rewards. Levels and bosses are the same, but rewards will be different every month. The rewards are massive, so it's worth spending time to level up your characters and rank.

 

You will get a different boost according to the requirement of the floor level. Every floor level will give you a specific character type to use to get the bonus. If you used any other character type, you wouldn't get the boost; instead, it will become harder for you to complete the challenge. You will be able to see the recommended element, which will also give you an advantage. So, make sure to take advantage of Recommended Element and Quest Conditions to clear a floor level easily.

 

 

The only thing left is the character level. You won't be able to clear the floor if you have picked the right element and quest conditions, but you have a low-level hero. This is the most important tip to notice as a F2P player. You can't just pick a random character and invest all your resources into it.

 

You have to pick one character from each element and work on that character to cover all the modes. Keep the elemental system in mind while working on your character, and don't forget to look at Phantom Tower from time to time.

 

Focus on Arena:

 

Last thing you need to do as a F2P is to focus on the arena. Climb higher as much as possible. The reason to focus on the arena is that it gives you massive rewards every time you win. However, you can only store five tickets at a time.

 

The tickets regenerate over time, but it's best to use them when you have a winning shot. You can also buy tickets through Gleamstones; however, it's your choice if you want to spend your Gleamstones on stamina and tickets or not.

 

 

Conclusion:

 

Tales of Crestoria is like any other role-playing gacha game. In every gacha game, the rules are simple for F2P players. Do not upgrade anything blindly. Do your research and understand how it will affect your game.

 

Sometimes saving resources for a specific character is good, but you can't have a mindset of " I don't have this character, I want this and that" because this mindset will always make it harder for you to play.

 

Do not compare yourself with higher level players or streamers. As a F2P player, you should focus on the above-given tips, and you will progress faster in no time. Make sure to do your research on characters before leveling them up.
