Justin’s event planner

• Justin’s event planner and a quick guide on how to use it.
  • Calculates the most optimal farming route. Helps you decide if adding more AP is worthwhile.

• The Targets tab:
  • Min Clear: Sets the bare minimum. E.g. Stop spending AP after buying desired shop items and farming X event points.
  • Currency: Makes it keep farming. E.g. Keep spending AP for gacha boxes, artifacts, elephs, gacha cards, lessons, etc.
  • Materials: Focus artifacts from stages.
  • Manual: Set your own stages to sweep. You can also disable stages from the Stages tab if you’re too low level.
• The Owned tab:
  • Helps you calculate in the middle of an event. Be sure to read his notes there.
  • Currently, the energy from the weekly quest/Arona login doesn't get reduced.
  • Up to one day's worth of natural regen (10/h) and cafe regen isn't included.

Event overview

How this event works.

Drop rates, enemy levels

• Use Schale.gg to check the enemies’ true levels (which is what affects the level penalty.

Challenges

• Example videos and mechanics.
• Vuhn Ch’s challenge videos.
• YouTube is your best friend. You may need to use broad search terms, or the name of the event, like “Blue Archive bunny challenge 5” or “Blue Archive get set go challenge 3”.
• You don’t need those exact units to beat it, just students who can do a similar job.

Maximize event bonuses

• Every time you clear a stage, your highest currency bonuses are saved. This includes sweeping. For maximum yield, you might need several runs before you sweep.
• Always do story stage 1 first; if there’s a welfare student, this is where you acquire them. Welfares give event bonuses.
• Zoomed in guide.

Bonus guide

Example stage that drops 3 event tokens:

1. Do run #1 for the highest bonus to token A.
2. Do run #2 for the highest bonus to token B.
3. Do run #3 for the highest bonus to token C.
4. NOW it’s safe to sweep.
5. If you didn’t 3* or beat the challenge timer, use a real team. Don’t forget you can do 3* objectives one at a time (for all game stages); you can get the "120 seconds" and "all students survive" stars independently of each other.

• If you’re strong enough, you can leave bonus students at level 1 (if you weren’t planning on investing in them).
• Bonus units can die, but their team cannot forfeit or be defeated.
• If it’s too hard, swap out your lowest bonus unit for a real unit, and keep doing that until you can clear it.

Events worth refreshing

• This is just a general guide. Everyone has different priorities. Use Justin’s planner or the old event excel to see which events are worth refreshing for you.
• Use Seventh’s Pyro Planner to track pvp coins, refreshing and sparks. Instructions are on the first tab. You can also check estimated event dates in Midokuni’s “Banner Summary” tab.
• Refresh for any 2x/3x drops you need, like 2x normal, hard, commissions.
• If you’re not max level and you care about optimizing, refresh 3x daily (buy AP via pyro 3 times a day) to progress faster.
• For event details, find them in Story Events or search their title in this wiki. Make sure you’re looking at the appropriate event; it’ll have “rerun” in the title if it’s a rerun.

Hoarding AP

AP hoarding by outi#4797

More visual guide by Kelfran#0178

• Here’s an example of how to hoard AP. The dates in the first guide will be incorrect, but you will do the same steps on the equivalent days. For example, you always start about 2 days before maintenance will end.
• If there’s a high risk you can’t follow these exactly, don’t follow these guides, you’ll just waste AP and pyro. Set alarms to make sure you do it properly.
• You can do simple 24 hour hoarding instead:
  • Collect your cafe AP 24 hours before maintenance will end + a few extra hours after, in case it gets delayed. For example, if maintenance ends at 6 AM, collect at 9 AM the day before, or whenever you usually play after maintenance.
  • You gain 10 AP per hour, so collect/spend so you will have near max/right at max when you play after maintenance.
• Other notes:
  • AP sent to your mail only lasts 24 hours. To be safe, you want to wait so it will last a few hours after maintenance is projected to end (the guides already account for this). Nexon will not refund you lost AP.
  • You cannot refresh via pyro if you don’t have the physical space. Each refresh gives 120 AP, you need that much space x number of pyro refreshes to do it.
  • When you have 999 AP, you cannot claim AP, PvP, raid or JFD (Joint Firing Drill) rewards. That’s why the guide says to fail one normal stage for -1 AP so you can.
