New trader start guide

Lock the account, learn the three pillars, pick a main lineup, and join a guild before you chase a power screenshot.

This guide is for day-one traders. The goal is a stable account and a clear growth loop — not a viral power screenshot.

1. Secure the account first

Do this before you invest hours in a guest login.

Bind a permanent login (platform account / email / phone — whatever the client offers) so a reinstall does not wipe progress.
Write down server + trader name somewhere offline. Support tickets need both.
Turn on notifications for energy, events, and guild pings — or you will miss the free timers the game already gives you.

2. The three early pillars

Everything else hangs off these three systems.

Pillar	What it is	Early job
Champions	Your fighters and captains	Pick a main lineup and feed it first
Fleet / battle	Energy type, counters, components	Learn Beam–Kinetic–Ion before hard stages
Economy	Coins, commissions, home port	Separate wallets; raise port quality early

Guild content sits on top of all three. Join when you can clear the entry bar — do not wait for a "perfect" roster.

3. First session checklist

Finish the tutorial and claim every staged reward.
Open Champions and note who is already on your board.
Open Fleet / battle help once and screenshot the energy triangle if the UI is dense.
Check Home Port / commissions so you know where soft currency comes from.
Browse guild list — shortlist 2–3 that match your language and play hours.

4. Pick a main lineup early

Spread resources across every new drop and you stall. Name a temporary main squad (4–5 champions), dump levels and promotions there, and only then fill side slots.

Prefer champions you can promote with materials you already farm.
Keep one flex slot for event or story requirements.
Revisit the lineup after the first week — temporary is fine.

5. Join a guild before you over-optimize

Solo grinding past the guild gate costs more than a mediocre guild. Ask for settle rules, rally times, and language — details live in the guild checklist guide.
