Guide

Brand New Year is a Story Event. You will receive 5 free Party Invitations daily; this is the event stamina. You can spend event stamina to clear the story stages, at 1 stamina per entry. If you enter battle but fail or exit the stage, it will not consume event stamina and you may try again.
There are two types of Story Event stages: one-time story stages, and repeatable farming stages.
One-time stages are accompanied by a story dialogue, and give a one-time reward when cleared. These stages cannot be replayed after the initial clear. The story dialogue can be replayed in the Record Repository.
Repeatable stages give a reward for each clear, and can be farmed repeatedly. Each repeatable stage will reward: credits (1H), battle data (1H), or core dust (1H), at 1~4 count per clear depending on difficulty. Since higher difficulty stages grant more rewards and event stamina does not refresh when overcapped, it is always optimal to only buy event stamina after Hard Mode unlocks to farm the higher difficulty stages.
Farm the material that you need. At synchro level 1~120, core dust; level 121~140, battle data and core dust; level 141~199, battle data and credits; level 200+, core dust and credits is recommended to farm.
Clearing event stages also grant Chandelier Brooches; this is the event currency. Event currency can be spent in the event shop to purchase additional rewards. See the Shop section below for more information.
Reward Boost Nikke
When clearing an event stage, you may receive a bonus reward of 50 event currency. The chance for this bonus reward drop is at base 0% chance. In order to increase your chances for a bonus drop, you must bring Reward Boost Nikke in your story event squad. Since Mica, Belorta, and Mihara add up to a 60% chance, you will need at least one SSR Reward Boost Nikke for the 100% guaranteed bonus drop.
Nikke | Bonus Reward Boost |
Modernia | 60% |
Helm | 40% |
Julia | 40% |
Sugar | 40% |
Milk | 30% |
Dolla | 30% |
Eunhwa | 30% |
Mica | 20% |
Belorta | 20% |

Event Shop

Typically, if you play the Story Event every day, you will be able to buy out the whole shop without needing to buy any additional event stamina with gems, minus the raw 300 cost Core Dust. If you wish to buy all 50 of the 300 cost 30x Core Dust, you will need to buy additional event stamina with gems, and you may not be able to buy out the rest of the event shop. I only recommend buying the raw core dust if you are near or over level 200.
If you are able to buy out the whole event shop, simply buy the items that will help you immediately first.
If you are unable to buy the whole shop, I recommend prioritizing: Advanced Recruit Vouchers (prioritize if less than 5 MLB) = Recruit Vouchers (prioritize if less than 5 MLB) >= Consoles >= Skill Manuals = Burst Manuals >= Battle Data (prioritize if level 121~199) >= Core Dust (prioritize if level 1~120 or level 200+) > Credit (prioritize if Tactic Academy is not maxed, or leveling T9/T10 equipment) >= Core Dust (raw 300 cost) > RE-Energy
Party Invitations (event stamina) are worth buying if you have 100% drop rate (after hard mode unlocks). Do NOT buy party invitations before hard mode unlocks, as you will not receive daily free event stamina when over-capped.

what does MLB mean?
MLB means max limit break as in an SSR character limit broken 3 times with spare bodies. This guide suggests to prioritize getting 5 MLB characters to overcome the level 160 wall faster.
is there any guide or tip on limit breaking? for example, once you got to the level cap thats the only time to limit break or is it like once you got the spare body you limit break it fast. Since most of the time i see in games like this, you only limit break once you get to the level cap.
There are no downsides to limit breaking, so you can limit break as soon as you have a spare body. It’ll increase the HP, ATK, DEF, and level cap for the Nikke for the cost of one spare body. I’d check this guide out for more about limit breaking and leveling.
