The goal of the provided steps is to give you a helping hand in the early stages of the game, and introduce you to the basic concepts of the game and some inter-skill synergies. It is not guaranteed that this is the fastest method, nor is there a right or wrong way to progress in the game.

Doing so will provide access to 3 basic modifiers and 2 unique modifiers from Ameria, which can then be activated and then upgraded by consuming Stardust and Golden Stardust. All of these bonuses are good, however, be aware that the cost doubles for each upgrade you purchase. For now, we recommend not purchasing past the following upgrade levels:
For Stardust modifiers, be careful upgrading past star level 5-6

Magic Fish are generally not recommended if using Summoning. If you're not using Summoning, they are technically worth approximately 1% more GP/h than Whales, which makes Magic Fish require the least amount of setup to be effective for GP. However Whales seriously outweigh Magic Fish in flexibility in other uses in the game, as well as severely outvaluing the GP/h when Whales are used with the
