It is recommended to upgrade the Sword of Might first to significantly raise the DPS output during Swordfighter Form and gain a versatile weapon for battles. Upgrade the Bow of Might to have a formidable option for ranged fights.

Upgrading Energy isn't a necessity as long as players stock up on energy-restoring smoothies. The Bombs of Might can remain at most at Lv.2— if not unlevelled —until all the other upgrades are obtained as its investment have significantly worse gains.
