Reroll For The-O (Purple)

The-O Gacha - Gundam UC Engage

The best way to quickly progress through the game is to have one of the best mobile suits in the game as of this writing, The-O (Purple), or more commonly referred to as Purple-O. Not having this MS puts players at a significant disadvantage since this MS is a staple pick for both PvP and PvE. It has near impregnable defense, and it can carry teams regardless of game mode due to its self-healing and high damage.

It is important to note that the Purple-O is available on the 72hr Gacha Banners, so even beginners can reroll for this powerful MS.

Use the UR Selector Tickets To Get S Gundam and a Strong Sub Pilot

Roux Louka Ticket - Gundam UC Engage

While it cannot compete with today's best mobile suits, the S Gundam is still a decent offensive mobile suit, especially when paired with its signature pilot, Roux Louka.

However, the UR selector ticket should not automatically be used to get Roux. Instead, players may opt for substitute pilots for whichever meta MS they have managed to pull. Most Diamonds that were acquired early on will go to MS gacha banners, and players will surely be left with some key pulls without their signature pilot. Some of the options players have for the pilot selector ticket are quite good as substitute pilots, such as C0174 Riddhe Marcenas, being able to grant up to 210% to any Red-type unit.

If strong UR DPS units are already owned, opting to use the MS selector ticket for the FATB instead is recommended, as doing so would grant players access to a Haro Farm sooner. This could also turn into one of the best Sub MSs for the Purple-O.

Use The Beginner's Trial To Rank Up Fast

Beginner

The Beginner's Trial is currently by far the best method for low-level Gundam UC Engage players to level up and catch up with the rest of the players. This game mode can be found under Events, and features a set of battles free of any AP costs for any account below Player Rank 160.

This event will teach players different gameplay mechanics through a variety of combat scenarios highlighting the mechanic of focus. These can range combat, team setup, and even unit upgrades.

The Practice stages in Beginner's Trial cost no AP to play, and there is no limit to how many times players can do it per day. It is possible to just use as many Skip Tickets as desired to get Player EXP and loads of UR Custom tickets for free.

Each of these practice stages rewards players with 4,000 Player EXP, EXP leveling materials, 50 UR Custom Tickets, Coins, and Skip Tickets each time these are completed. Combined with the fact that these can be done as many times as desired, the Beginner's Trial becomes a way to quickly accumulate player ranks.

Upgrade Owned Units

Alter Stages - Gundam UC Engage

Assuming the Beginner's Trial leveling method was used, players should be very close to being able to just speedrun the entire Main Quest for a massive stockpile of Diamonds. But before speedrunning the Main Quest, it is recommended to upgrade the obtained mobile suits and pilots first.

One of the most substantial upgrades players could do is to Alter their MS, or in other words, raise its custom level. This upgrade system dramatically increases a mobile suit's stats, as well as improves its Skills 1 and 2. Each Custom Lv. is unlocked every 10 ranks from 10 onwards, and costs Custom Tickets to upgrade.

But luckily for players, they will likely have many UR Custom Tickets if they played the Beginner's Trial game mode. A team of Custom 13 units should be able to clear most, if not all, Main Quest stages if they're accompanied by a strong Support formation MS from a clanmate or friend.

However, increasing the Custom Lv. of all your UR units is not recommended. This is because UR Custom Tickets are hard to come by once players have get further in the game. It is not uncommon for players who are taking on endgame level content to report not having enough UR Custom Tickets for their units. That said, it is recommended for players to alter only the units that are known to be of use in the future.

Players should also pay attention to their mobile suits' levels, though this automatically rises with Alteration. Skill Rate, on the other hand, is another stat-boosting upgrade system that can easily be grinded for upgrade materials.

Other upgrades, such as Transcendence, Potential Unleashed, and Modules, are also very important upgrade systems, but players might not have the necessary resources just yet to secure these more premium upgrades at this point.

What Upgrade Should I Do First?

Grind Through Main Quest

Alter Stages - Gundam UC Engage

Now that the mobile suits are upgraded, players should have a team that's capable of beating the Main Quest with ease. The objective here is to earn as many Diamonds as possible, and this will be done by clearing each stage while accomplishing all of its missions.

These missions usually involve clearing the stage with a complete team of six mobile suits, not allowing a single one to be destroyed, and defeating all enemies within a time limit. Doing so will award players with Diamonds, the game's premium currency, for each mission they accomplish. These certainly add up as the player progresses through the main quest, and will add up to a massive stockpile of Diamonds for them to pull units with.

The most difficult mission among the typical quest battles is to not lose a single MS during the fight. Players are recommended to level up their mobile suits and raise their Potential to have a better chance of surviving the fight.

Some battles might be too hard for a team to complete, but players could always just borrow a powerful MS from their friends and clanmates' Support Formations to carry their team. This also rewards the friend they borrowed a unit from with Friend Medals, whichcan be exchanged for different goodies like Skill Rate leveling materials at the Friend Shop.

Make Use Of the Daily Material Quests

Upgrade Quests - Gundam UC Engage

Material Quests are rather straightforward game modes that can be taken on once a day. This mode features three missions, with each one rewarding players with coins and leveling materials for either MSs or Pilots. Doing these every day takes no time at all if Skip Tickets are used, and should contribute to the player's wealth in terms of leveling materials.

Set Up and Grind Haro Farms

Blueprint Series - Gundam UC Engage

Once within 30 ranks below the maximum Player Rank, the rank grind becomes much slower as players no longer have access to 0 AP missions to grind EXP with. Most of the AP should be going to the Haro Coin Farm grind, given the importance of Rainbow Haro Coins, as well as the usefulness of some of these free units as Sub MSs with high or max Potential Levels.

Ideally, players should be spending all their AP to do all the UR Fragment Missions three times a day. Daily AP won't nearly be enough to do so, but it is well worth spending coins and 60 Diamonds per day on AP to be able to do this. It is a very long grind, but it is well worth it in the end. Luckily, this also grants good amounts of Player EXP, so it's a great way to level up, earn resources, and get stronger all at the same time.

Among the units that will be earned are the Gundam Full Armor (Thunderbolt) and the Char's Zaku II, which will be one of the first units to reach Potential Lv. 5.

Unlike the other units from Fragment Quests, blueprints for these mobile suits can be purchased from either the Clan Shop or the Arena Shop. Spending all the currencies that have been earned for these shops will greatly accelerate your Haro Farm progress.

Haro Coin Farm Guide

Take Advantage Of The Event Modes

Events Section - Gundam UC Engage

Events in Gundam UC Engage usually have very desirable rewards tucked inside their list of freebies. These typically include hard-to-earn rewards such as Diamonds, UR Custom Tickets, Rainbow Haro Coins, or even copies or Fragments of units.

While some of these may be too difficult for lower player ranks, some of these are extremely beneficial for beginners. A good example of an event players don't want to miss out on is the Encirclement Breakthrough Battles Event, which often rewards players with Fragments of UR-rarity units that they could also get from Fragment Quests, boosting their Haro Farm progress.

News & Events

Pull From the Limited Gacha Banners

Gacha Banners - Gundam UC Engage

While it may be tempting to keep spending hard-earned Diamonds, the best way to go about spending them is to use them only in Super or Extreme Limited Assembly Banners that feature powerful units. While players may not get the MS they want, the pool of units they could earn from these contains more desirable MSs with high-tier list rankings and great performance. Meanwhile, the regular gacha banners are saturated with mobile suits and pilots that do not perform well.

While these do not directly contribute to Player Rank, having better units enables teams to perform better, and the better they perform, the more wins players will accumulate, and the more EXP they will get.

Gacha Guide

Spend BP

Get Modules from Cooperative Quests - Gundam UC Engage

Coop Battle, unlocked at Player Rank 20, is one of the more efficient ways to farm Player EXP because of how many times it can be done compared to other modes (which may or may not burn through AP quickly). When joining an ongoing Coop Battle, players will only consume 1 BP, out of 100 in reserve.

Coop Battles are also the primary way to get Modules in Gundam UCE, which can be used to strengthen mobile suits and be exchanged for Unit Enhancement Points.

Just like with AP, using as much BP per day is recommended. The more battles a player participates in, the more Player Rank EXP they will earn.

Modules Guide

Participate In Arena

Arena - Gundam UC Engage

This is ultimately what it comes down to - the Player vs Player experience. Arena is the mode where all of the collective knowledge of the game coalesces. In order to earn rewards, players will have to prepare their best teams and fight other players.

While most players may not expect to be at the top of the rankings, they should compete and participate in battles each day to accumulate their rewards. The more you play, the higher they will rank, and the more rewards they will earn.
