To rank up a 5-star Champion to 6 stars, use five other 5-star Champions as sacrifices. Build those five through a food-leveling loop: level lower-rank Champions to their caps, rank them up using Champions of the same rank, and repeat until they reach 5 stars.
Build the five 5-star sacrifices
- Level lower-rank Champions to their maximum level, then rank them up by sacrificing the required Champions of the same rank.
- Repeat the leveling and rank-up process until you have five 5-star Champions to use as food.
- Select your target 5-star Champion and use those five Champions in the Rank Up process to raise it to 6 stars.
The draft gives level targets of 20 for 2-star Champions and 30 for 3-star Champions before ranking them up. It also recommends using common and uncommon Champions from Mystery Shards as food. Avoid using Rare or Epic Champions unless you have decided they are not needed for your roster.
Keep the process focused
The draft recommends leveling one campaign carry alongside three food Champions, rather than spreading experience across several Champions. It also names Brutal 12-3 as a campaign farming option, but the supplied material does not establish that it is the fastest or most efficient stage. Treat it as a suggested location, not a verified best choice.
Experience boosts and Level Up events are other suggestions in the draft. If you use them, they may fit into your leveling schedule, but they do not change the rank-up requirement: your 5-star target still needs five other 5-star Champions as sacrifices.
