Need help levelling up

[WORLD.exe]

I'm level 49 and am finding the game exponentially difficult. I have 3 lvl 50 characters and weapons. I have investments in Logistics, Manifestations and Neuronics. Both Normal and Hard Main Story missions have become almost unplayable. My only luck is trial operatives 25 levels higher than me.

At this point paying to win probably wont result in a significant performance boost

Any tips on levelling up so I can increase character and weapon levels? Any way to continue getting useful rewards for played missions?

Thanks!

I also stalled for a while around that level and had similar issues.
I just did the operations (mat grind missions) until i hit 50 and then you can add +10 levels to your operators.
I think you can play the latest chapter story missions now without clearing (they give you good operators to use) but then you are spoiling the story

Playing Logistics Operations on Abyss was a huge help. Thanks for the tips!

That's where things naturally start to slow down, too. It starts taking several days to get a single level, and grows from there. I'm at level 73 currently. Takes about a week for a single level. That's how these games are structured to pressure you into spending to speed things up again. They'll start you off on the fast track to get you enticed at all the gains you're getting, and then they cut the supply off. It'll start becoming a daily routine of logging in, auto-clearing, and getting off the game a few minutes later. At the F2P level you'll be doing this for several months just grinding out mats to get operatives up to snuff. Resources have higher requirements at higher levels too, so things will slow way down in terms of progression.

Don't feel bad homie. I'm in the same boat ....I actually spent $30 because I really enjoyed the game mechanics and hot waifus and wanted to support the devs but I can assure you that $30 doesn't do much. I've been trying to get a limited edition chixeng eternal wind. 300 pulls and still nothing. I wish these gacha devs would throw us a damn bone.

Either I don't understand what you're saying, or you're doing something terribly wrong. 300 just for a character, or something else?

300 pulls? Are you pulling on the 50/50 banner?

Even then, I believe it would only be 160 total not 300...
Or they did the 50/50 on Operator AND weapon both. Ouch...

That's a heart attack if he did 50/50 on both.

You are either lier or drunk. 100% banner 100 pulls maximum. 50% banner is 80 or 160 if you lost first 50%. With 300 pulls you can get 3-4 characters 100%

Tips for levelling? Just login and do dailies. Expend those stamina on events then buy anything you want from the store.
For normal story, just use those trial operatives. They're at maximum performance and weapon usually. It isn't like you're given a gimped character.
Hard, depends on your roster.
You probably need a good 5* DPS roster for that.
Anyway, just wait until you can level up further.
