Note:
1. Unlike most Japanese Card RPG games, Bravely Archive does not have Friendship Summon which is why they are giving out Gems every stage instead of every chapter.
2. Gold in the game is called PQ
3. Friend Invite – you’ll receive 10 gems for friends who use your code and another 10 gems when your friend reaches lv.10 for his account.



Understanding your character

Unlike most gacha games, rolling a 5* character at the start of the game is not as important and may not be beneficial in a long run. Players will need to check the character to find out if it can be evolve into a 6* character. For example, some of the 4* characters can be evolved into 6* while the current list of 5* characters, not all of them can be evolved into 6* characters.
