Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant has seen massive success in the SEA region where it was launched 1 year ago. A lot of veterans have volunteered to onboard new players that will be joining the adventures upon the global launch. We have prepared a list of tips and tricks to help new players get started and streamline their progress. As Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant is still a live service title, it should be played more like a marathon than a sprint. This is simply due to the limited number of resources available at the start. Do not fret, as the developers have issued a host of useful redeem codes that can be used to gain tons of freebies instantly. Let’s get right into the tips!

Tips #1. Knowing the Basics of Summoning System

Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant is a gacha game at its core, giving players the ability to draw out the strongest heroes. It takes a different type of currency than other aspects of the game. Often, a player’s account progression depends on how lucky they get in the gacha systems. The cases are divided into different tiers, starting from the weakest at R rarity and the strongest at the SSR rarity. The difference between the rarities can be really felt in combat as the higher rarity cases have higher base stats, better abilities, and overall greater synergy in different team compositions. We recommend instantly trying to pull an SSR case in the first 10 pulls. You can refer to a tier list for the strongest cases to summon and add to your line-ups.

Tip #2. A Healthy Squad Compositions Leads to Easy Wins!

Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant has a ton of different cases, each with their own set of abilities and usage. But not all the cases can fit into the same team composition. Each of them are assigned a role in the game and that’s what they bring into any team they are added to. Some are damage dealers that excel at wave clearing or boss killing. Others are healers that can help sustain your team’s HP and help them survive the waves. Defenders are those cases that can be put in the frontline to soak up huge amount of damage. They are generally protectors of the squishier members. Some cases are well equipped with debuffing abilities that can help confuse, immobilize, or weaken the enemies. A healthy balance of different types of cases makes up a balanced team composition. Refer to our strongest teams guide for a better perspective. 

Tip #3. Ensure Powering Up Cases

There are a number of ways you can enhance your acquired cases. For example, you can level up by using Mission Data, both Mission Data I and IV. Another popular way is to use the character’s Bio-Chip to enhance their skills in addition to its basic attributes and artifice. You can also use Augmentation Materials to increase the Tier of the character in addition to its basic attributes and tier. Do not fret, as in the early game, you will have access to a ton of resources that will help you on this grievous task. Make sure to participate in the events as well to make the most use of being a new player. 

Tip #4. The Link Systems Works Magically 

If you want to swiftly enhance your combat power, we would recommend checking out the Link system of Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant. To put it bluntly, a link is the relationship that exists between 2 distinct cases. You can enhance the skills or stats of these cases who have been linked by in your squad. The effect will be stronger the more links you use, so you can obtain additional effects at no cost. You can link more than 2 cases at a time, ensuring more chances of success as your power levels get increased. 

Tip #5. Hidden Node Supplies Bring Joyous Rewards!

When clearing the adventure mode of Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant, make sure to have your eyes peeled open for shiny hidden nodes that act like treasure chests. Each of these node supply boxes bring amazing rewards, such as summons, gold, and the premium currency. Sometimes, they also contain extra experience that can help you level up your cases in mass. 

Playing Echocalypse: Scarlet Covenant on a bigger screen of your PC with BlueStacks without worrying about battery drainage and smooth gameplay, is highly recommended.
