Currencies

Acquired by pulling duplicate characters or weapons from the Gacha. Exchange them in the Shop for valuable items each month.

Earned by completing Expeditions. Weekly cap of 1,000 points — don't miss your weekly Expeditions.

Earned by clearing Fierce Battle Area and Large Conquest stages. One-time rewards per stage.

Credits are the general-purpose currency used for leveling characters and weapons, performing Level Limit Breaks, and upgrading skills. Always keep a healthy stock or you won't be able to progress with Reinforcements.

• Training: Basic Material tab — The best Credits-per-stamina source. Run this regularly.
• Other Training tabs — Role Material, Honju Neutralization, Attribute Material, and Identified Kaiju Neutralization also drop smaller amounts of Credits alongside their main rewards. Note that the Unimaterial tab does NOT include Credits.
• Player Rank ups — Each rank-up rewards Credits automatically.
• Events & community milestones — The developers occasionally gift Credits alongside other rewards.

Dimensional Crystals are the primary gacha currency used to pull on all banners. They can be earned for free or purchased.

• Daily Missions — Up to 50 Dimensional Crystals per day from completing daily tasks.
• Story Mode — Each combat stage awards Crystals on first clear. Non-combat stages also give Crystals. Push story as far as possible early.
• Player Rank ups — Each rank-up includes a Crystal bonus.
• Events — Kaiju Rush, Fierce Battle Area, Raids, and limited events are among the best free Crystal sources.
• Special Requests — Unlock at Player Rank 10. Each request and its follow-up message rewards Crystals.
• Promotion Exams — ×20 Crystals from the unlock message and ×20 from the post-clear message for each exam.
• Achievements — Various in-game achievements reward Crystals.
• Serial Codes — Redeem codes from official livestreams and events at the Web Store.

Emblems of Defense are earned from Star Rewards in the Fierce Battle Area and Large Conquest. They are exchanged in the Shop for Kaiju Core Materials and other upgrade items.

• Fierce Battle Area — Earn Emblems of Defense from Star Rewards by clearing stages. The higher the stage, the more you earn.
• Large Conquest — Also awards Emblems of Defense from Stage Star Rewards.

• Kaiju Core Materials — Top priority. These are rare and essential for character upgrades.
• Crystal Shard — 1-for-1 exchange, up to 100. Fuels the new Weapon Amplification system — grab these after Kaiju Core Materials.
• Other upgrade materials — Spend remaining Emblems on materials you need most.

Refinement Crystals are earned by dismantling ★5 weapons. They're now dual-purpose — use them for Weapon Amplification, or exchange for ★5 weapons in the Weapon Exchange Shop.

• Dismantle ★5 weapons — You receive 1 Refinement Crystal per ★5 weapon dismantled. Go to Home → Storage to dismantle manually.

• Weapon Amplification — push a weapon's stats beyond its base level (see Character Progression > Weapon Leveling & Ascension).
• Exchange for ★5 weapons in the Weapon Exchange tab of the Shop. Limited to 1 exchange per month, resetting on the 1st at 04:00 JST.
• Best exchange: GS-3305 if you have Gen Narumi — his best-in-slot weapon. Otherwise exchange for any ★5 weapon you don't own yet that suits your squad.

Kaiju Core Material is one of the rarest upgrade materials in the game. It is required in the final stages of character Skill Enhancement — ★5 characters begin consuming it from Skill Level 9. Collect it whenever possible.

• Emblem of Defense Shop — Exchange Emblems of Defense in the Shop monthly. This is the most reliable source. Don't miss it each month.
• Encounter Stone Shop — Available with a monthly exchange limit. Priority should go to Gacha Tickets first, but grab these if you have leftover Stones.
• Defense Force Pass — The premium season pass includes Kaiju Core Materials as rewards. One of the main reasons to consider purchasing the pass.
• Kaiju Rush — Mission completion rewards include Kaiju Core Materials when the event is active.
• Limited-time events — Special Events and Mini Special Events occasionally include Kaiju Core Materials in their reward pools.

A new material for exchanging deep duplicate pulls into ★5 characters you don't own yet.

• You receive Apatite Petals once your total acquisition count for a ★5 character reaches 8 or more copies — every copy from the 8th onward grants a Petal.
• Counts regardless of source — Gacha, Shop exchanges, mail distribution, or the first-time exchange from THE GAME Gacha. Characters received directly as compensation don't count.

• 5 Apatite Petals = 1 character from the current eligible ★5 list below (Shop selection, subject to rotation).
