7 Things You Should Do to Clear Stages More Easily

1. Farm in World Content Beyond Story Mode

Many players want to dive straight into Song Jin-Woo’s story, but sometimes tackling Story Mode without enough levels can send you back. The key is to level up, farm materials, craft new weapons, and prepare buff items. World Content mode allows you to replay previously explored areas from the story while gathering resources for crafting and leveling up efficiently.

2. Buy Buff Drinks from Shops Before Battles

If a stage feels too challenging, check the Hunter Guild shops or vending machines for buff drinks. These can increase defense, attack power (physical or magical), and more. Spending a little in-game currency for these buffs can make a huge difference. Always drink a buff before entering dungeons to maximize performance.

3. Don’t Forget to Allocate Stats After Leveling Up

One common oversight is neglecting to allocate stats after leveling up. The system won’t automatically take you to the stat menu, so you need to manually assign points. Boosting stats according to your playstyle will make battles easier and more efficient.

4. Craft Items That Match Your Class

Solo Leveling: ARISE OVERDRIVE offers many items to craft from various materials, including Song Jin-Woo’s main and secondary weapons. Experimenting is fine, but always prioritize crafting items that suit your class. For example, assassins should focus on knives rather than crafting ranged magic weapons that don’t synergize with their stats.

5. Collect Rocks and Minerals in Dungeons

When exploring dungeons, don’t just rush from monster to monster or straight to the boss. Along the way, rocks and minerals spawn randomly, which are essential for crafting high-quality weapons. Skipping these can waste a lot of time later when you realize you’re missing just one material.

6. Hire Hunters Based on Success Rate

Although the game is called Solo Leveling, Song Jin-Woo doesn’t have to fight alone. You can recruit up to three NPC hunters for your party. Each recruit comes with a success rate influenced by friendship, in-game currency, and luck. Avoid recruiting top-tier hunters early if their success chance is low—it may backfire. Wait until relationships improve for better results.

7. Build a Balanced Party Team

Even after recruiting hunters, only three can join you in a dungeon. Choose members that fill missing roles rather than duplicating your existing strengths. For early-game success, having healers is crucial to avoid constantly retreating to use potions. A balanced team ensures smoother dungeon progression and fewer interruptions.

Following these seven tips will help you progress through stages and the story of Solo Leveling: ARISE OVERDRIVE. Once you’re confident, you can experiment with your own builds and strategies—this game allows you to play Song Jin-Woo freely and creatively.
