Leveling a unit is imperative for a lot of card functions, as it's a requirement for raising Limits and performing well in battle.

In order to raise the base level of a companion, either you gain XP through battles (slow), or you "feed" them Boosts. Matching energies yields a 20% increase in XP gains (example: Moritaka, WATER, gains more XP using WATER XP Stars than other colored XP stars). ALL-ROUND Boosts also can be substituted for energy-matching gains.

Currently, the highest achievable level is 80 through the use of Level Seeds on a unit.

Battle XP

Certain quests with battles (usually those that cost AP to attempt) offer a fixed amount of quest XP (XP_quest). This quest XP is split among the members of the team with which you enter battle (excluding your support member). The XP distribution is determined by the LV of each member (LV_unit) relative to the sum of LV across all 5 members in the team ([i=1,5]ΣLV_i). The calculation for the XP gained by each member (XP_unit) is as follows:

XP_unit = XP_quest × LV_unit/[i=1, 5]ΣLV_i

This means the units with greater LV relative to the other members of the party will receive a larger share of the quest XP.

The XP gain is negligible for most quests. However, the XP from Dungeon Quests is non-trivial: for example, the Shinjuku Level 70 Dungeon Quest rewards 32000 quest XP, which is the equivalent of 25 non-matching Boosts. Since DP is restored effectively every 24 hours, at 4 AM JST, this amounts to an equivalent of 25 non-matching Boosts every 24 hours. Compare this with Level 50 Boost-dropping Daily Quests (e.g. Aether Spar/Extreme), which costs 45 AP and drops an average of 8.32 Boosts per run, or 33.28 every 24 hours (since stamina recovery is 1AP/8min = 180AP/day).

To maximize the XP gain, the units you wish to level should have the highest LV among your team (excluding the support member). Consider bringing units with the skill Mentor/Mentor+: for every unit with this skill, the quest XP increases by 10%. As of version 4.0.1, 5 of 6 possible team members can have this skill (with 4 distinct units Ded, Jinn, Triton, Avarga; and 1 support). Together, they can increase quest XP gain by 50%. In the previous Dungeon Quest example, this would amount to an equivalent of 37.5 non-matching (or 25 matching) Boosts in total.

XP Star Curves

Unlike Souls, there isn't necessarily a convenient series of leveling, especially with random boosts being thrown in. Below is a chart detailing the amount of XP each Boost yields per rarity.

Star Size	XP	XP (Matching)
1☆ (Small)	20	24
2☆ (Medium)	80	96
3☆ (Large)	320	384
4☆ (Super)	1280	1536

Below is a table detailing how many Boosts required to reach Limits per rarity. The "suggested path" in the table below refers to using substitute Boosts first in the leveling range, and using the divisional remainder of the total Boosts / (5 total slots) first (i.e. Boost_,total mod 5) before leveling in batches of 5. The cost does not include cost for limit breaking or LV seeding.

Random Multiplier

Occasionally, you may experience higher than usual XP gains when leveling this way. Currently, probabilities require extensive testing (which requires a lot of resources). Provided data is given using a sample size of n=301. It can be inferred that Failure is exclusive to Skills leveling.

Success	Probability	Multiplier
Good	~92.691%	100%
Great	~5.648%	200%
Fever / Awesome	~1.661%	300%

Coin Cost

While fast and convenient, leveling this way comes at another cost: coins. As expected, the amount of coins required to gain XP has a base cost of 100 coins per XP star, and is proportional to the current level and the number of XP stars you're using.

Coins_required = n_{slots_filled} × (20 × LV_current + 100)

Level Limits

Each character has a level limit dependent on their rarity (3☆ characters have the same initial limit, but different from 4☆ and 5☆ characters); however, these limits can grow by limit breaking a character. You can limit break all characters, regardless of rarity.

☆ Rarity	1st Order	2nd Order	3rd Order	4th Order
1☆	20	30	40	50
2☆	25	35	45	55
3☆	30	40	50	60
4☆	35	45	55	65
5☆	40	50	60	70

XP per Level

Below are charts graphing the amount of XP required to reach a level, and the deltas between levels. This XP curve is static between characters (as in, everyone has the same level of progression).
