Star Savior Beginner Guide: First 7-Day Progression Plan

Star Savior Artwork 1

Star Savior can feel overwhelming at first, but a simple 7-day plan will keep your account efficient without burning out. This guide focuses on clearing story, setting up AFK income, and investing in a small core roster rather than spreading resources too thin.

7-day goals overview

Across your first week, you should aim to:

  • Clear as much main story as your power allows to unlock modes and boost AFK income.
  • Build a core team of 4–5 units, with at least one tank, one healer/support, and two damage dealers.​
  • Finish daily and weekly missions consistently for summon currency and upgrade materials.

Suggested week-one focus:

DayMain focusKey actions
Day 1Reroll and core teamFinish tutorial, claim rewards, reroll if desired, lock in starter team. ​​
Day 2Story push and AFKPush main stages, upgrade team, unlock more idle rewards. 
Day 3Gear and skillsStart refining equipment and key skills on your best units. 
Day 4Extra modes and missionsClear daily missions and new modes for extra currency. 
Day 5Strength check and roster polishRaise combat power benchmarks and fix weak links. ​
Day 6Farm, refine, and push wallsAlternate farming with pushing stuck stages. 
Day 7Weekly clean-up and future planningFinish weeklies and plan banner/currency strategy. 

Day 1–2: Reroll, story, and AFK

Many players still consider rerolling worthwhile to secure strong early SSRs and Arcanas, especially supports and tanks that carry weak accounts. If you decide to reroll, do it only on day one, then commit to a single account and start investing.​​

Across your first two days:

  • Push main story until progression feels slow rather than farming low stages.
  • Always claim AFK rewards and mission rewards before logging off to keep your account growing while idle.
  • Level and gear only 4–5 units; spreading upgrades will stall your power.

Day 3–4: Gear, skills, and new modes

Once your basic team is set, your biggest power jumps come from equipment and skill upgrades. New modes such as operation-style resource stages and early challenge content start contributing significant materials at this point.

Priorities for days three and four:

  • Equip full sets on your main team, even if they’re only basic rarity; empty slots waste a lot of stats.
  • Focus skill upgrades on key tank, healer, and main DPS abilities instead of upgrading every skill on every unit.
  • Clear your full set of dailies every day, as daily missions offer a steady flow of gems and tickets for summons.

Day 5–7: Breaking walls and planning ahead

By the end of your first week, you will naturally hit difficulty walls where enemies outscale you without some targeted farming. Use these walls as signals to improve gear, resonance/limit breaks, and team synergy before pushing again.​​

For days five to seven:

  • Alternate between pushing story and farming specific stages that drop key materials or gear upgrades.
  • Refine your team composition around solid roles: one front-line, one healer/support, and flexible DPS options to swap by content.​
  • Finish all weeklies before reset and decide whether to save or spend pulls on current banners, based on your account’s needs.
