Optimize Your Grind with the Best Quests for XP, Sigils, and Resources

After completing the story in Granblue Fantasy: Relink, the real challenge begins—preparing your characters for endgame content. To tackle the hardest battles and highest-tier quests, you’ll need to level up quickly, maximize your power level, and strengthen your characters with masteries, sigils, and weapon upgrades.

We’ve already done the heavy lifting, testing out the best farming missions to make this process as fast and efficient as possible. Below, we break down the best quests to farm for experience, materials, and sigils to help you power up without wasting time.

1. Survival Missions – The Best Way to Farm XP, Mastery Points, and Materials

Survival missions are an excellent choice for farming because they scale with your progress and contain large enemy waves, giving you plenty of opportunities to rack up drops. To locate these missions:

• Head to the Quest Counter.
• Select Quests.
• Filter by Quest Type and look for Survival Missions.

Best Survival Missions to Farm:

Early-Game XP & Sigil Boost – “Fumigation”

• Why it’s great:
  • Easy to complete.
  • Rewards a Fast Learner Sigil, which boosts XP gain.
  • A great first step for quick leveling.
• How it works:
  • Defeat waves of enemies to earn Rupees, Fortitude Crystals, and Mastery Points.
  • Slimes in this mission also give additional Mastery Points per kill.
  • The materials dropped can later be traded in for Knickknack Vouchers, used for high-level sigil transmutation.

Mid-Game XP & Mastery Farm – “Main Deck – Ath Battleship”

• Why it’s great:
  • Grants two whole levels of XP per run.
  • Drops High-Grade Scrap, which converts into Knickknack Vouchers (essential for transmuting sigils).
  • Provides a solid Mastery Point gain, making it the perfect mid-game grind.
• How to maximize:
  • Farm with a party (co-op) for faster completion and better rewards.
  • Prioritize transmuting the High-Grade Scrap to quickly stockpile Knickknack Vouchers.

High-Level Weapon & Sigil Farming – “Horde Mode: Unthinning the Troops”

• Why it’s great:
  • Available once you reach Hard Difficulty.
  • Drops Medium Fortitude Crystals, which provide major boosts for weapon upgrades.
  • Each run gives 30-40 Fortitude Crystals.
• Pro Tip:
  • If you don’t need the Fortitude Crystals, trade them at the Knick-Knack Shack for tickets to roll powerful sigils.
  • Avoid lower-tier Horde missions if you dislike fighting flying enemies, as they slow down completion times unless you use a ranged character.

2. Maximizing Efficiency: Best Loot & How to Use It

As you farm these quests, you’ll accumulate massive amounts of materials, sigils, and crystals. Here’s what you should do with them:

Materials & Vouchers – How to Use Them Smartly

• Do NOT sell materials for Rupees!
• Instead, trade materials for Knickknack Vouchers at Cero’s Knickknack Shop.
• Use these vouchers to transmute high-tier sigils, which are key for late-game optimization.

Best Uses for Sigils

• Equip a Fast Learner Sigil early on to increase XP gain.
• Hold off on upgrading sigils until you reach Extreme Difficulty or higher, where Tier 4 and 5 sigils drop more frequently.
• Use Dahlia Badges from quick quests to purchase specific Tier 5 Sigils at Cero’s shop.

Weapon Upgrades – Efficient Farming

• Prioritize Fortitude Crystals for quick weapon level-ups.
• Focus on scaling weapons gradually rather than maxing out too early.
• Trade extra Fortitude Crystals for sigil transmutation once you’ve maxed out key weapons.

3. Final Thoughts – Leveling Efficiently Without Wasting Time

Farming in Granblue Fantasy: Relink can be fast and rewarding if you focus on the right missions. Prioritize:

• Survival Missions for XP, Rupees, and Mastery Points.
• Horde Missions for Fortitude Crystals and sigil trades.
• Main Deck – Ath Battleship for Knickknack Vouchers and fast XP.

Following these strategies will save you time and effort, ensuring you have a powerful roster ready for endgame content.
