How to start Goddess of Victory: Nikke the right way, from reroll priorities to your first working team and where to spend early resources.

  • Play the tutorial to Chapter 1-4 to unlock the redeem-code and outpost systems, then enter codes immediately for free pulls.
  • Build around burst structure, not rarity: you need one Burst I, one Burst II, and one or more Burst III units so you can trigger Full Burst every rotation.
  • Cheap SSRs like Liter (Burst I) are more important than a random meta unit, because reliable burst cycling beats raw stats early on.
  • Learn manual aim: manually focusing weak points and dangerous enemies lets you clear stages your Combat Power says you shouldn't.
  • Invest in a small core of characters rather than spreading resources thin; a well-leveled B-tier unit outperforms an underleveled S-tier one.
  • Don't burn premium gems on random pulls early; save for a limited banner you actually want and use the Advanced Recruit pity system deliberately.
  • Match elements to enemy weakness in harder content for a large damage bonus, and use the Simulation Room and outpost passive income daily.
