Resource Flow and Priorities
Resources are scarce. Spending them wisely accelerates progression; wasting them sets you back 5+ levels.
What You Earn and What It’s For
Evolution Materials
The single biggest bottleneck. Controls progression more than any other resource.
Spending Priorities by Game Phase
Early Game (Levels 1β10)
- Coin β Creature upgrades (keep team level-matched to content)
- Capture Tools β Catch new creatures for element balance
- Evolution Materials β Skip for now; focus on breadth not depth
Why: You need diverse creatures more than deep power. Once you have all four elements, start saving evolution materials.
Mid Game (Levels 10β25)
- Evolution Materials β Evolve creatures that will stay with you (your starter, your favorites, S/A-tier captures)
- Coins β Keep up with upgrades as you level; eventually job assignments generate coins passively
- Capture Tools β Catch A-tier and S-tier creatures when you see them
Why: Evolution is the main power lever now. One evolved creature beats three unevolve new captures.
Late Game (Levels 25+)
- Trait Materials β Breed your best creatures with good traits
- Evolution Materials β Evolve new S-tier captures you find; your core team is mostly evolved
- Coins β Breeding is expensive; job assignments should cover upgrades
Why: Trait inheritance compounds advantage onto your best creatures. This is where optimization happens.
The Coin Economy
Early: Battle drops and quest rewards. Limited; most spending goes to upgrades.
Mid: Job assignments start generating passive income. One good mining creature pays for upgrades without grinding.
Late: Multiple creatures on jobs generate enough coins for all spending. Battle drops become bonus income.
Key insight: Do NOT rush job assignments early. Assign creatures to jobs only after they’re evolved and won’t leave your combat squad.
Evolution Material Bottleneck
Evolution materials determine your progression speed more than any other resource. One evolution = 50-100% stat boost. No coin amount buys that.
Conservative approach: Save evolution materials for creatures that:
- Are S/A-tier (will carry you far)
- Are your favorites (you’ll use them a long time)
- Have good evolution outcomes (some evolved forms are weak)
Aggressive approach: Evolve every creature you catch to see which is strongest. But this requires farming more battles for materials.
F2P players can evolve 2β3 creatures per 10 levels if they farm efficiently.
