Blue Archive: How to Level Up Fast (2025)
Written by Rahul Gupta
Leveling up in Blue Archive mainly comes down to how well you use your AP. The more AP you spend, the faster you’ll level.
If you want to stop crawling through ranks and actually unlock more features and rewards, focus on the methods below.
Spend AP on Campaign Missions
This is the best way to get EXP fast.
Every AP spent gives 1 EXP toward your account level.
Normal missions are best for gear farming, while Hard missions give Divine Fragments.
Use the Sweep function once you’ve 3-starred a mission to save time.
Do Your Dailies and Weeklies
Daily and weekly tasks often give AP and other bonus items.
You’ll need this extra AP to keep leveling without waiting for the timer.
Always clear these first before using Pyroxenes.
Buy AP with Pyroxenes (If You Can)
You can buy extra AP with Pyroxenes up to 20 times a day.
The cost rises gradually, so stop when it gets too expensive.
Save this for events or farming sessions if you’re short on time.
Use Double or Triple Drop Events
When drop events happen, you get more EXP reports, credits, and gear from the same amount of AP.
Always farm during these events.
This is the most efficient way to stock up and level faster without spending more.
Don’t Waste Time on Story
Story missions take time and use AP, but don’t give much EXP.
Skip the cutscenes if you’re trying to rush levels.
Focus on Missions and Event stages instead.
Use the Café and Join a Club
The Café unlocks after 2-1 and generates free AP and Credits over time.
Upgrade it whenever possible to raise your passive income.
Clubs give 10 AP daily just for being in one.
Commissions (Use During Drop Events)
Commissions cost AP and give either Credits or EXP reports.
Drop rates are low, so avoid them unless there’s a 2x or 3x event running.
Base Defense = EXP reports. Item Retrieval = Credits.
Final Blurb
If you want to level up fast in Blue Archive, treat AP like fuel. Burn through it on campaign missions, skip the nonsense, and save your Pyroxenes for key events. The game rewards consistency, but it rewards smart farming even more.
