In *Limbus Company*, the level of your Sinners is crucial to their combat effectiveness. Just like in other RPGs, leveling up your team is essential for progressing through the game and tackling challenging content. Even the most powerful Sinner Identities won't stand a chance against enemies if they're underleveled. For those new to the game, here's a comprehensive guide on how to efficiently gain XP for your characters.
Combat and Grinding
For beginners, the primary way to earn XP is through combat. Every Sinner in your team will gain XP after successfully completing a combat encounter, whether they participated in the fight or not. However, those who actively fought will earn more XP. This method, common in many free-to-play gacha games, can be slow, especially as battles become more challenging. To speed up your progress, you'll need to find more efficient leveling methods.
Once you reach the midpoint of Canto 2, you'll unlock the Luxcavation mode. This mode allows you to challenge specific enemies for various rewards. While the fights provide a decent amount of XP, the real value comes from the consumable items you can obtain, which are essential for leveling up your Sinners.
Using Consumable Items
If you're looking to avoid the tedious process of grinding for XP, you can use consumable items like Level Boost Tickets and Identity Training Tickets to level up your Sinners' Identities. These items are specifically designed for character leveling and come in various rarities.
Identity Training Tickets
Identity Training Tickets provide a flat amount of XP to an Identity. They serve as the equivalent of level-up materials in other gacha games like *Honkai Star Rail* or *Genshin Impact*. These tickets are excellent for reducing the XP grind, but you'll need a substantial number to max out a single character. They come in four tiers:
- Identity Training Ticket I: 50 Identity XP
- Identity Training Ticket II: 200 Identity XP
- Identity Training Ticket III: 1000 Identity XP
- Identity Training Ticket IV: 3000 Identity XP
You can primarily obtain these tickets by farming the EXP Luxcavation stages. They are also available through the free and paid Limbus Passes, as well as periodic attendance check events.
Level Boost Tickets
Level Boost Tickets instantly raise your Sinners' Identities to a specific level, bypassing the need for XP. These are highly valuable and much rarer than Identity Training Tickets. They are mainly obtained through the Limbus Pass, and occasionally during attendance check events. Unlike training tickets, they cannot be farmed. The different types of Level Boost Tickets will elevate your characters to the following levels:
- Level Boost Ticket I: Level 10
- Level Boost Ticket II: Level 20
- Level Boost Ticket III: Level 30
- Level Boost Ticket IV: Level 40
As of now, the maximum level for Identities is 50. To level up multiple characters efficiently, it's wise to balance the use of your Level Boost Tickets and Identity Training Tickets.
To use these consumables, navigate to the Sinners menu and long-press the portrait of the character you wish to level up.
