Optimal Skill Leveling for URs: Whale Edition
Are you drowning in more UR seals than you know what to do with, and desperately short on skill EXP?
You're in luck, fledgling whale! You can cut down skill EXP costs by making use of more URs.
The following are exhaustive tables of optimal paths (lowest skill EXP usage) to reach SL4-8 using any number of URs.
Note: For SL8, if you're not a whale just feed SL4s as usual and you're gucci. The lower SL tables might be useful for you, though!
For charts and other indepth discussion check out the #teambuilding_meta channel in our Discord server! Some assumptions were made while constructing the calculations in order to speed up the processing time, although I'm quite certain these are either optimal or near-optimal. Please contact me if you spot any mistakes!
- If a feed target is not specified, assume you are feeding to the main copy.
- These tables assume you want to stop at the specified skill level. If you're using them as a stepping stone, you should refer directly to the higher skill level tables instead.
- Numbers in (parentheses) indicate cost in skill EXP to produce that copy.
- All URs are assumed to start at SL1 with 0 overflow.
- 【Fancy Brackets】 indicates a "sub-instruction" to build a high-SL duplicate aside from the main UR.
