Epic Seven Day 3 Guide: Moonlight Picks and Early Gear Farming

On Day 3 of a free-to-play Epic Seven account, your primary goal is to establish your core team and resolve early resource shortages. To progress efficiently, select an impactful Light or Dark unit from Moonlight’s Blessing, spend your initial summon tickets to expand your roster, and direct surplus stamina into side story stage farming for gold and equipment materials.

Choosing Your Moonlight Hero

Moonlight’s Blessing and milestone hero selections give your account access to powerful five-star Light and Dark units. Selecting Death Dealer Ray provides an attrition-focused control kit that bypasses conventional enemy defense stats through Venom and sleep effects. Because his damage relies on percentage-based debuff ticks rather than high gear investment, he performs reliably on defensive, entry-level equipment.

If you are deciding between the prominent milestone options, match the hero to your intended gameplay focus:

• Death Dealer Ray: Cycles Pestilence and Venom debuffs to erode bulky teams over extended fights without requiring top-tier offensive substats.
• Specter Tenebria: Serves as a dedicated damage dealer who cannot be targeted by single-target attacks while teammates remain alive, making her a safe pick for story chapters and Abyss stages.
• Last Rider Krau: Grants team-wide barrier shields, immunity, and true damage that scales with his defense, countering enemy teams reliant on area-of-effect damage.
• Blood Moon Haste: Provides defensive barriers and true damage when enemy units trigger revive abilities, serving as a direct counter to revival mechanics.

Deploying Early Summon Tickets and Imprints

Early milestone rewards grant a mix of Element summons, free daily Covenant pulls, Mystic summons, and Moonlight bookmarks. Use these tickets as you receive them rather than hoarding them during your first week:

1. Element and Covenant Summons: Pull on these banners to collect staple three-star and four-star utility heroes. These units fill missing roles—such as frontline damage mitigation and defense breaking—before you unlock higher-tier options.
2. Mystic and Moonlight Summons: Spend initial batches to pull for artifacts and rare Light or Dark units. Even duplicate artifacts provide valuable enhancement materials.
3. Wishlists and Duplicates: Configure custom summon wishlists for heroes that do not require duplicate copies or limited artifacts to function. If you pull duplicate copies of high-scaling burst heroes like Ludwig, feed them into their imprint slots to gain flat attack bonuses that ease early equipment stat requirements.

Farming Eulogy for a Saint 3-9

Once your primary four-hero team is active, your immediate progression barrier will be a lack of gold and gear enhancement materials. Direct your repeatable stamina spending into the Eulogy for a Saint side story, specifically repeating stage 3-9.

Use stage 3-9 to level your newly summoned heroes and fodder units alongside a primary carry. Grinding this stage stabilizes your account's gold balance and supplies the materials needed to push your main roster toward Level 50 before attempting higher Hunt stages.
