If you're just downloading Final Fantasy Brave Exvius for the first time onto your Android phone, you're entering a big RPG world of rich history, legendary folks, and exciting turn-based battles. But as with many mobile RPGs, the beginning is a bit confusing — especially when you're rushing to level up your units. Whether you want to increase your party or participate in high-level events, this beginner's guide will take you through how to level up quickly in Final Fantasy Brave Exvius (FFBE) on Android.
1. Prioritize the Story Mode First
The story mode isn't solely story — it's your fastest way of getting EXP, Lapis, and essential resources early game. Completing all the quests will reward you with unit experience, player rank EXP, and items. New areas and encounters will be opened up in each chapter while naturally levelling your party.
Pro Tip: Take advantage of the Auto-Battle and Repeat feature to speed up battles when farming for EXP.
2. Grind in the Vortex: Chamber of Experience
Your Chamber of Experience is your go-to place for quick leveling of units. This special dungeon, located in the Vortex, contains Metal Cactuar enemies that give you huge EXP when killed. Here's what you'll need:
- Energy-efficient farming: Run the EXP Chamber only when you have enough NRG.
- EXP Boosters: Use items like EXP Keys or equip characters with EXP-boosting abilities.
Android tip: Enhance your gameplay by enabling Battery Saver Mode in-game and utilizing Android's Do Not Disturb feature to avoid interruptions during lengthy farming sessions.
3. Use Metal Cactuars Wisely
Metal Cactuars are rare resources you’ll earn through events, missions, and login bonuses. These creatures give 100,000 EXP when fused to a unit. Don't waste them — use them on your highest rarity characters (especially 5★ and 6★ base units).
- Fuse them into units with Trust Moogles or use Enhancement Units to double the value.
- Combine Cactuars in your unit pool for EXP bonuses.
4. Join a Beginner-Friendly Guild (Companion System)
While FFBE does not have traditional guilds, the companion system allows you to borrow powerful units from friends. Invite higher-level friends with maxed characters to breeze through difficult levels and learn EXP faster with minimal effort.
- Look for friend sharing threads on Reddit or FFBE Discord.
- Look for units with max level Limit Bursts or AoE attacks to clear quickly.
5. Log In Every Day and Complete Daily Quests
Every day, the login reward on FFBE usually consist of EXP Keys, Lapis, NRG Restore, and Cactuars. Continue to log in every day as a regular to build up resources.
Also, finish your weekly and daily quests:
- Daily Quests reward player EXP and pots NRG.
- Missions often give bonus units and materials that are perfect to use for leveling.
6. Participate in Events That Reward EXP
Be on the lookout for special events, such as collaboration events or anniversary events. Special events typically offer:
- Double EXP rewards
- Free units with enhanced leveling curves
- EXP orbs and keys
Check for "EXP farming events" in the in-game News tab to maximize your energy.
7. Optimize Use of Your NRG
NRG (energy) is your go-to resource for performing missions and dungeons. On Android, use your NRG to its limit:
- Play during Half NRG Campaigns
- Utilize NRG Restore Items from raids or login rewards
- Don't waste NRG by playing in short sessions throughout the day
8. Boost with EXP Boosting Equipment and Skills
Some units and equipment possess EXP-boosting passives, such as Growth Eggs or Moogle Plushies. Utilize them when grinding low-stamina dungeons to maximize it.
Double-check your equipment stock and select Sort by Effects to discover any EXP-raising gear you may have overlooked.
Final Tips from Android Users
- Enable notifications so you never miss any limited-time EXP events.
- Back up your game securely on Google Play and play cross-platform.
- Play using Android emulators like BlueStacks or LDPlayer on your computer for smoother farming sessions.
