What Are Safaris?
Safaris are used to raise your character level, unlock Pathfinder skills, and increase your Aniimo level cap.
Best Ways to Earn Safaris
There are 9 ways to earn Safaris: Main Story, Elite Training, Daily Activity, Catch Report, Challenge Alpha, Pathfinder Challenge, Collect Amber, Journey Quests, and Institute Exclusive.
| Option | Details |
|---|---|
| Elite Training | Completing the required courses earns large amounts of Safaris, plus separate rewards for reaching milestone totals. |
| Challenge Alpha | Defeating Alpha bosses grants Safaris, with the amount depending on the Alpha's level (150 for the lower-level Alphas we confirmed, up to 500 for higher-level ones). |
| Capturing new Aniimo | Capturing an Aniimo you haven't caught before grants Safaris, with the amount depending on the Aniimo's form. |
Character Level Cap and Pathfinder Rank
Your character level is separate from your Aniimo's individual levels, but it acts as a hard cap: your Aniimo can't surpass your current character level.
To raise your character level cap, you need to pass an Elite Training Promotion Assessment to upgrade your Pathfinder Rank. A Title Promotion (such as to "II Student") raises your Character Level Cap and Aniimo Level Cap together by the same amount (25 to 35 in the case we confirmed), and increases World Level and Challenge Rewards accordingly.
Passing the assessment grants a new title, new Talents to unlock, an Aniimo Level Cap increase, and Report Cards, which are Talent Points used to unlock Talent Skills and Passives.
According to player experience, Pathfinder Rank promotion gates occur at character levels 25, 35, 40, 45, 50, and 55, with level 60 being the final gate before the current endgame level cap. The current character max level is 71.
If you're blocked at a Pathfinder Gate, any excess Character EXP you earn is safely stored until you unlock the gate. This doesn't apply to Aniimo EXP.
Tips to Level Up Fast
- Focus on the required Elite Training courses and Daily Activities first, since both provide large and consistent amounts of Safaris.
- Farm high-level wandering Alphas: defeating them grants high EXP to your active party, and defeating an Alpha for the first time also grants a one-time bonus (500 EXP for the higher-level Alphas we confirmed).
- Quickly progress through the Main Story to unlock higher Pathfinder Ranks, which give access to new gameplay features and high-EXP areas.
