What to Grind for in the Arena - Gundam UC Engage.png

Arena is one of Gundam UC Engage's most popular game modes, but it may be unclear to newer players what they're really grinding for. Read on to learn what you can earn by playing Arena, what to do with your Arena Medals, and which rewards to prioritize.

What To Grind For In Arena?

Arena Medals

Each Arena match, win or lose, will reward you with Arena Medals, and at the end of every season, you'll earn a minimum of 1,000 and a maximum of 3,000 depending on how high you're ranked in the leaderboard. These Arena Medals can then be exchanged for goods at the Arena Shop.

The Arena Shop contains Unit Assembly Tickets, UR Body and Third Weapon Chips, Blueprints of 12 different mobile suits (4 of each rarity), and Coins.

The best purchase you can make in the Arena Shop is to buy Char's Zaku II blueprints if you don't have it at Potential Lv. 5 yet. If you started the game with a good roll, odds are there's no place for this unit on your team. It's not strong by any means, but it's still the most valuable purchase you can make in the Arena Shop.

Even if you don't like the CZII, it's still extremely valuable since after you get it to Potential Lv. 5, the CZII blueprints you earn from Fragment Quests every day will be converted into Rainbow Haro Coins, a scarce resource that you can use to Transcend your mobile suits and make them so much stronger.

How to Get Started With the Arena?

Diamonds and Recycle Points

Diamonds and Recycle Points can be earned in Arena, though you'll only get them as a reward after every season concludes, and not after every match. Just like with the Arena Medal season rewards, how many you get depends on how high your Arena rank is.

You can only earn a maximum of 1000 Diamonds (assuming you're in Standard Arena) and a minimum of only 100, so if your goal is to stock up on Diamonds, know that you won't get much from Arena. On the other hand, you could get a decent amount of Recycle Points at the end of the season, which ranges from 4000-15600.

Climb The Rankings

Other than the rewards listed above, you could use the Arena as some sort of proving ground to see how well you fare against the rest of the world and to establish yourself as one of the game's top players. Arena rankings for the current season and the past 2 seasons are displayed, so getting to the top will mean that the people who check the rankings will see and recognize you as one of the best in the world.

Ranking among the top 300 in a season will get you into Elite Arena, the biggest PvP stage in the game. Here, only the best players in the game can compete, and the rewards are much bigger than the ones you can win in Standard.
