Chaos Zero Nightmare Fast Progression: Leveling, farming, and daily priorities
Want to speed up your power in Chaos Zero Nightmare? Here’s a concise guide to fast leveling, smart daily farming, and getting the most value out of your time and stamina.
Key Progression Systems (What to Do First)
1. Prioritize Story Missions
- Complete main chapters first, each unlocks important game features, resources, and extra pulls (Game8 Tips).
- Story clear unlocks more daily and weekly missions, raising your overall account level (Captain level).
2. Run Simulations Daily
- Simulations are resource dungeons for XP, breakthrough mats, potential currency, and character shards.
- Spend all daily stamina on Simulation stages before anything else, these offer the fastest leveling and most essential materials (LDPlayer Beginner Guide).
3. Farm Chaos Manifestation/Zero System
- These roguelike modes reward powerful gear, card upgrades, and permanent “save data” loadouts for improved runs.
- Push as far as possible with your best team, adjust layouts for AoE or boss fights, and prepare multiple save files for each content type.
Leveling and Upgrading
- Character Level: Raised with XP from Simulations, caps at specific intervals (10/20/30), then breakthroughs are needed to continue.
- Breakthrough & Ascend: Always farm breakthrough materials and potential points for your main DPS/supports first.
- Manifest Ego: Get and fuse dupes from pulls or farm shards in advanced Simulations for Star rank-ups and ultimate unlocks (LDPlayer Character Progression).
- Potential Tree: Use currency from Simulations/Chaos to unlock stat boosts. Prioritize offensive nodes for carries, defense/survival for tanks/vanguards.
Daily Checklist for Fast Progression
| Task | Reward Type | How Often |
|---|---|---|
| Main Story clear | Gems, unlocks | 1x per chapter |
| Simulations (all stamina) | XP, materials | Daily |
| Ark City upgrades | Buffs, currency | Daily/Weekly |
| Affinity/gifting partners | Stat boost, gifts | Daily |
| Event dungeons | Currencies | As available |
| Weekly Bosses/Endgame runs | High mats | Weekly (Bosses) |
- Spend stamina every day, no auto-carryover!
- Use Cafe free potions for stamina when you want faster campaign/simulation pushes.
Farming & Team Tips
- One main DPS, one support, one utility: Don’t split resources; focus on three main characters and matching partners for attribute bonuses (Game8 Team Guide).
- Save pulls/currency: Don’t spend all resources on day one, save for limited banners after you’ve got a solid clearing team.
- Activate Ark City buffs/policies weekly for extra stamina, currency, or loot rates.
Advanced Tips
- Multiple Save Files: Prepare different loadouts for boss, AoE farm, and PVP, swap before each key run for max efficiency (YouTube Week 1 Guide).
- Refreshing stamina: Early F2P players can refresh stamina once or twice a day with premium currency to keep ahead (first refreshes are cheap!).
Clear the story, spend stamina on Simulations, prioritize character breakthroughs, and always focus upgrades on your core team. Combine smart daily/weekly routines with boss runs and Ark City buffs, you’ll fly ahead in Chaos Zero Nightmare progression!
