Star Savior Progression Roadmap: What To Focus On Day 1, Week 1, And Month 1

Star Savior Artwork 9

Star Savior progression is all about steadily raising combat power by levelling a small core team, upgrading key skills, and unlocking systems like Journey and Stella Archive. This roadmap outlines what to prioritise on day 1, in your first week, and across your first month.

Day 1: Tutorial, reroll, and foundations

On day 1, your goals are to finish onboarding, secure a strong core carry, and unlock basic systems.

Focus on:

  • Clearing the tutorial and early sectors to unlock mail, dailies, and gacha.
  • Rerolling (if you choose) for one top-tier DPS plus a good support/tank, using current reroll-tier lists (Luna, Smile, Kira, Asella, Lydia with Serpent/Frey/Harley, etc.).
  • Pushing main story as far as your power allows to raise AFK income and open Journey and resource stages.

Do not:

  • Over-upgrade many units; funnel XP, resonance, gear, and skill mats into four Saviors (tank, support, two DPS).

Week 1: Unlock systems and stabilise your team

By the end of week 1, you should have a stable core team and most core modes unlocked.

Priorities:

  • Raise levels and resonance on your main four to the current cap; combat power scales heavily with basic levels and resonance.
  • Invest Potential Points into 2–3 core skills per unit:
    • DPS: main ultimate and primary damage skill
    • Tank: provoke/shield/shared-damage skill
    • Support: main heal/cleanse/shield skill
  • Unlock and run Journey/Training to start generating Stella Archives for your key DPS and frontliner, focusing training on the stats that fit their role.
  • Clear all daily and weekly missions for gems, tickets, and mats while pushing AFK brackets via campaign whenever possible.

Avoid:

  • Spending resonance and limit-break materials on low-tier or backup units; early JP/KR guidance warns this is punishing in a dupe-heavy game.

Month 1: Deepening builds and pushing harder content

Over your first month, the focus shifts from basic unlocks to refining builds and clearing higher-end PvE.

What to work on:

  • Run repeated Journey sessions for your main DPS and tank to roll better Stella Archives, prioritising attack/crit/speed for carries and HP/DEF for defenders.
  • Farm gear and enhancement mats, then upgrade full sets on your core four rather than spreading upgrades across many characters.
  • Gradually climb challenge modes (tower/raid-style content) and higher-difficulty events whenever your power allows, then farm lower stages when you hit hard walls.
  • Start diversifying for elements and mechanics: build 1–2 backup Saviors in different attributes or with key debuffs/CC (e.g., Lydia, Muriel, Lou) to handle specific bosses.

Long-term habits:

  • Log in daily to claim AFK rewards, attendance, and event missions; idle income and scheduled events are core to progression.
  • Regularly re-optimise your team composition (1 tank, 1 support, 2 DPS) as new units and gear arrive, following synergy and combat guides rather than pure rarity.

Following this roadmap keeps your combat power rising at a healthy pace without wasting scarce upgrade resources, setting your account up well for future patches and global events.
