WALKTHROUGH

Dungeons & Deadlines

Main dungeons have deadlines; side dungeons and the Gauntlet Runner fill the gaps. Managing time is half the game.

Time management

  • Clear the story dungeon comfortably before its deadline, then use spare days for bonds and stats.
  • Scout a dungeon's element theme and set your party's Archetypes before entering.
  • Use the Gauntlet Runner's activities on travel days to grow Royal Virtues.
  • Rest to recover, but don't waste days — the calendar is your real resource.
