Introduction
Welcome to Epic Seven, the prettiest turn-based RPG on Android! Developed by Smilegate Megaport, this anime-based game is full of deep strategy, addictive storylines, and endless hero combinations. At the beginning, you may feel a bit overwhelmed. Don't worry—this Epic Seven beginner's guide will help you get through the early stages and build a winning team.
Let's dive into the best tips and tricks all Android players should know.
1. Play Main Story First
While Epic Seven is rich in side content, events, and PvP, new players must prioritize main story mode (Adventure first). It's the optimal way to:
- Uncover essential features like the Sanctuary, Automaton Tower, and Hunt mode.
- Obtain Skystones and bookmarks for heroes' summoning.
- Farm experience, equipment, and catalysts efficiently.
Pro Tip:
Resolve up to Episode 1, Chapter 10-10 to unlock valuable game content and quickly increase your account level.
2. Utilize Selective Summons Strategically
You'll be granted access to Selective Summons when you begin your journey—a unique feature allowing you to call 10 heroes/items up to 30 times and keep the one you like.
What to Find:
- Aim for a 5★ hero and a decent 4★ support.
- Decent choices are Sez, Destina, or Sigret for PvE utility.
Take your time—this is a one-time decision that can influence your early progress.
3. Create a Balanced Team
Synergy on your team is key in Epic Seven. Make sure your team consists of:
- A tank (e.g., Krau, Falconer Kluri)
- A healer (e.g., Angelica, Montmorancy)
- A damage dealer (e.g., Sez, Luna)
- A support/debuffer (e.g., Tamarinne, Iseria)
Building a well-rounded team sets you up for PvE and PvP.
4. Gear Up Wisely
You'll be in the mood to haw all the gear you get early on—but don't. Do this instead:
- Level up gear on your main healer and DPS first.
- Hunt down gear with Attack%, Speed, Crit Rate, and HP% stats.
- Only +15 gear you plan to wear permanently.
Farming Wyvern Hunts (specifically Hunt 11 and above) is the best way to get high-level equipment.
5. Awaken and Promote Heroes
As your heroes gain experience, promote them with Phantasmas and awaken them with elemental runes and catalysts. This boosts their stats and unlocks better passive and active abilities.
How to Farm Phantasmas:
- Replay Unrecorded History stages.
- Participate in Spirit Altar and Side Story events.
Waking up your heroes is an investment in the long-term but necessary to advance.
6. Don't Neglect the Sanctuary
The Sanctuary gets unlocked comparatively early in the game and has:
- Heart of Orbis (Skystone and Gold production)
- Forest of Souls (Phantasma & Penguin cultivation)
- High Command (Expeditions and quests)
Level up the Heart of Orbis first in order to maximize your passive income and utilize the Forest of Souls in order to level up Phantasmas for promotions.
7. Join a Guild ASAP
Joining a guild gives:
- Daily rewards
- Guild missions
- Access to Guild War and Guild Shop
Even if you don't play PvP yet, being in a guild ensures that you earn Mystic Medals to spend on summoning limited heroes.
8. Use Your Resources Efficiently
Don't squander:
- Gold on random gear upgrades
- Skystones on stamina (use them for bookmarks)
- Bookmarks unless there's a good banner
Use your daily free summon, and participate in limited events to obtain helpful resources.
9. Auto-Battle Wisely
Auto-battle can be time-saving, but first:
* Manually play more difficult battles to learn skill rotations.
- Use auto mode for grinding fodder and runes.
Enable "auto-repeat" with stamina flags to grind levels efficiently.
10. Beware of Limited Banners
Epic Seven usually has limited-time banners featuring super-powerful heroes. They don't return typically, so:
- Make preparations for your resources for limited banners.
- Keep an eye on the in-game calendar or the community forums to plan your summons.
Herders such as Luna, Rem, and Collab Units are a game-changer.
