Resources and requests
Like in any other hero collector, collecting resources is a must if you want to progress and grow stronger.
Therefore, you should actively farm resources to make sure you can smoothly progress through the story.
The first way to obtain items is by completing levels in the campaign for rewards.
The second way is to complete requests of the Copper Man.
There are three types of requests:
- Rookie requests – one-time completion rewards
- Daily – restarts on daily basis
- Special – harder to complete, but greater rewards
So go and see what requests you can do at the moment, as these yield great rewards.
If you want to maximize your resource farming, then you should, of course, do requests like dailies every day.
Also, be sure to check your in-game mail often, as useful rewards and resources are sent to all players from time to time.
Taking advantage of events is another way to get resources in ONE PIECE TREASURE CRUISE.
One of the easiest ones that’ll yield great rewards over time is the log-in event, which gives you rewards based on how many days you’ve checked in, in a row.
Try different team setups
The stats of your heroes, their levels, etc., will, of course, be the biggest factor when it comes to your chances of beating a level in ONE PIECE TREASURE CRUISE.
However, if you find yourself stuck, you can sometimes go yourself through that level you are stuck at by rearranging your crew.
Switching up the placement of the characters on your crew affects how your team performs, and sometimes that change is enough to get you through a level.
Your team’s chances of beating an enemy team also depend on their placement of heroes, so be sure to try out different setups when you face a tough level.
Furthermore, if you have more characters leveled up and upgraded than the characters in your crew, try some of those in your setup as well because some characters perform well against certain enemies.
You are now ready to take on the world of ONE PIECE TREASURE CRUISE.
Hopefully, with this guide, you can progress through the game smoother and better understand the game.
