Convenience Store is actually not that bad. While it is excessively expensive, you can actually gain Dennies without using any stamina. You can just spam hollow zero and buy Dennies with Merits. So for F2P players, and if you play a lot of ZZZ, it is a valid option.
@@GatsuRage Not sure what is your main point, unless you are trying to find ONLY non-RNG method. I mean you should not use convenience store as the MAIN source for leveling up your team anyway.

@edyl7393 It is a currency you can use to buy stuff in monthly store in Scott outpost. You can find the NPC outside of the main tent (the person who is giving out some pamplets)
So the best way to do while in Interknot 35-40 is just go all in on EXP material. It cost 76 pink exp mats per character from level 40 to 50, and lets say you already have the 6 characters as your 2 teams. You will need 76x6 = 456 purple to level 50 6 characters. and once you reach Interknot 40 thats when you start to farm the other materials like agent skill/w-engine/agent promotion/core skill I will probably follow this route Im currently Interknot 36 and just farm all the EXP mats now and once I reach 40 I will spend all the battery to farm the other materials. Also dont spend any dennies on convinience store because it cost 200K to ascend level 40-50 characters and that is 1.2M dennies for 6 characters.
I will do the same, but is it better to stack 5 enemies farming xp or just 1 enemy like in the video? Or maybe he used one enemy in all 5 slots only because he wanted to show an example?
@@undeniablySomeGuy Yea, I was talking about the slots(I edited the comment now, hopefully it will be more clear, english isn't my first language), I thought there was some sort of advantage using only 1 enemy there, but it seems game isn't that scummy, thanks for clearing it up.
Exchange shop is also viable for ppl who nolife hollow zero since we can get (technicaly) unlimited dennies from there (I imagine there is probably a weekly cap like in HSR)
Day 1 player here, just reached interknot 38 (battlepass, used all batteries, 0 refreshes) and panic farming exp right now. Shiyu defense 10 is a massive wall and getting my characters to lvl 50 asap feels like an absolute must.
@@oramisc90 Plenty of time, but I'm at ~50 exp items and I'm gonna need 75 per character so I'll be living there for quite a while to get 2-4 characters leveled.
Its definitEly clearable f2p. I’ve averaged like 2 refills per day, so I am not that relatable but I was able to clear stage 10 f2p with my ellen and neko teams. You have to farm some disk drives and invest in the right ones but it is possible before requiring level 50.
The resin/battery efficiency dosnt matter. what does matter is how efficient your batttery makes your current teams stronger so you can complete more shiyu defense before it resets...
don't you unlock S rank Disk Drives at 35? i'm surprised that wasn't mentioned at all. im curious as to much how much if any i should spend as S ranks are your end game gear.

You should always do weekly boss because it uses 0 ENERGY basically FREE. Free exp, free mats, FREE. Even when you ran out your 3 weekly chances you can do the boss over and over again (without getting rewards), such innovation
Play hard mode and get resources from it. A ton of hard mode missions and it’s easy to pass them because they don’t give interknot exp, but they do give leveling materials and primos.
Well, now I’m I-K 37 and softlocked due to no more quests, and I still didn’t get how people got to I-K 40 around day 6, like how do u get 60 more quests worth of EXP within a day?? till I remember Jade fuel recharges, and tbh, that’s make so much more sense now. (Technically, I’m 2k exp down since I didn’t use all my fuel from day 1, but even then, that’s a 17k exp difference compared to other people, and I’ve done all my quests to 100% completion and using all my fuels.) Like actually crazy. Gl bois lvling, if you want, don’t rush it, shinyu defense isn’t timed, so we have awhile, and since farming is like HSR in terms of better mats at high lvl, and similar relic manipulation (I’m pretty sure Cavern manipulation works here.) just focus of farming lvl mats, and maybe currency mats. Gl bois, and gl grinding.

So I'm lvl 36 IK and my team is nekomata piper and anby all of them are lvl 40 there skills are good w engines are good . I'm in shyu defense 6 I need a second team to clear it I got zhu yan yesterday so I'm going to build a team around her eventually. So what I'm thinking is should I farm drive discs right now and wait until inter knot lvl 40 to build my second team or start with my second team first
Imo 35-40 is one of the best times to do disc farming. By mid 36 you should have two teams at level 40 with level 40 weapons with no problems, and decent skill levels on 2 of the most important skills for each character. At 35 you have access to level 40 drive disc farms and gold level drive discs. At this point, only main stat matters, so you'll get a lot more hits than when you're grinding for substats. There's a LOT of stats your characters are missing from not having fully leveled drive discs. You might even pick up some really nice pieces that you'll use forever (i already have some fantastic pieces with double crit subs, substats feels much better in this game compared to Genshin and HSR) Spend 60 stamina on whatever coffee of the day is useful for your account and then do drive discs, and don't prefarm.
