Optimal Leveling Strategy

Rush to level 80+ before anything else. Every FP after that is multiplied.

ROI insight: Every GB has a break-even level where the FP output exceeds the FP cost of leveling further. Use the GB Investment Calculator to find yours based on your Arc bonus.

1.9 Thread Tips for The Arc

The standard 1.9 thread math applies: contribute enough FP to lock a P1-P5 position, then let the Arc bonus multiply your rewards. For The Arc specifically, keep an eye on the P1 vs P2 payout gap — sometimes P2 is more efficient depending on current contributions.

Arc Bonus Impact on The Arc

Every FP you commit to The Arc is multiplied by your Arc bonus. At an 80% Arc, a P1 payout of 100 FP becomes 180 FP. That's why upgrading The Arc always comes before upgrading other GBs beyond level 10.
