- Japan (JP) is about 5 months ahead of Global. (Global is the name Europe’s server, but we also use it for “all non-JP servers”). <br>
- Global follows JP’s schedule for the most part. They have smushed banners together or rarely swapped them around, but we have never skipped any. <br>
- There are 6 servers, with a new one coming: Japan (JP), Korea (KR), North America (NA), Global (Europe), Taiwan (TW), Asia, and later on, China (CN). You cannot pick your server unless you do VPN shenanigans. You can only add friends & join a club on your server. <br>
- To find which server you’re on: Inhomepage in-game homepage -> Settings -> Account -> Version Info
 
====Is Blue Archive F2P friendly?====
- Depends on your definition, but generally yes. You can be as casual as you like, and you will eventually beat all missions by over-leveling & over-gearing it. You can farm a ton of great students to max. PvP is RNG, the reward differences are pretty small, and brackets are about a few hundred players. Raid rewards also don’t differ too much, and a max dps borrow will carry you through every hardcore raid. <br>
- While F2P income is pretty good (1 spark every 2 months), you’d have to whale or be insanely lucky to collect all the gacha-only students. There’s about sixty in Global, more in JP, and that pool will just keep growing. On the bright side, most students are permanent, and they’re pretty good about rerunning limited and permanent banners.

====Is rerolling mandatory?====
[[File:OomPreventRerollHell.jpeg|thumbnail|Should you keep rerolling?]]
- It helps secure useful units at the start, but it’s not mandatory since you can farm a lot of great students. Reroll if you don’t mind, just play the best account if you’re tired of it. <br>
- If there’s a meta banner up like Himari, Mika or Iroha, try to get them.

====What’s worth buying for real money?====
- Worth is subjective, but the cheapest decent things are: New teacher packs x3, both monthly subscriptions, and the AP packspack during good events. The Serika package is alright, but [https://schale.gg/?item=13008 she’s easy to farm].
 
====Should I buy the Start Dash ticket?====
[[File:StartDash.jpeg|thumb|Students in the Start Dash ticket]]
- The pool of 8 is small and offers a lot of great units. It also gives a rate-up for dupes (100 elephs instead of 30). However, 3 students are farmable (and Koharu will join the raid shop in several months, and Hibiki will be in hard mode ch.22). You can see the whole pool via Rate Info button on its gacha page. <br>
- I probably wouldn’t buy it unless you’re already buying the 2 monthly subs and AP packs during good events. <br>
