Farming Route Priority

When managing your daily Trailblaze Power, prioritizing efficiency is key to maximizing progress. Here’s why this order is recommended:

• Weekly Boss: Destroyer's Final Road

Limited Attempts: These bosses can only be challenged 3 times per week, offering unique rewards like 5-star Light Cone upgrade materials and Relic Remains. Missing them delays endgame progression.

• Stagnant Shadow: Shape of Gloam

Ascension Bottleneck: Unlocking a character’s level cap requires materials exclusive to Stagnant Shadow stages. Farming these early prevents roadblocks when building new units.

• Calyx: Moon Rage Fang

Flexible Farming: While Calyxes provide EXP books, credits, and Relic XP, these resources are more easily farmed over time.

*Priority: Weekly Boss → Stagnant Shadow → Calyx
