DNF Mobile Login Routine Guide (Daily and Weekly Content)
네오필
The DNF Mobile 4th anniversary update has brought many players back to the game and encouraged others to start for the first time. There are quite a few tasks to keep track of each time you log in, so this guide brings them together in one place.
Friend Management and the Mystery Shop
After logging into DNF Mobile, start by opening the Friends window and clicking Send All and Receive All.
The Friendship Points you collect here are mainly used to buy Catalyst Fragments and Warlord's Cry Potions in the Currency Shop, but they can also serve as an emergency reserve when you need Gold.
If you do not have any friends, send friend requests through Find Friends, Recent Games, the guild member list, the rankings, or world chat.
Next, visit the Mystery Shop.
As a rule, buy all available Catalysts, Catalyst Fragments, High-grade Ryan Cokes, Ryan Cokes, and Keys of Liberation every day.
If you do not have any Terra, leave the Keys of Liberation for later.
The shop offers Ryan Cokes for both Terra and Gold. Although the prices are lower than at the Auction House, I generally recommend buying them with Gold only, since Terra has many other uses.
If needed, you can also buy Kaleido Boxes, Clear Cube Fragments, Remy's Touch, and Full Equipment Repair Coupons. The 3-coupon bundle offers the lowest price per repair coupon.
If you have farming alts, consider buying Gold Cube Fragments or gems and storing them in your Adventure Team Vault.
Events Menu
Next, open the Events menu and claim your Arad Attendance Check Gift.
On days 7, 14, and 21, you receive Inventory or Vault Expansion Tickets and Catalysts.
Start using expansion tickets at this point
If you have already expanded your inventory and vault sufficiently, save the expansion tickets for when the next expansion costs 50,000 or 80,000 Terra. Another option is to buy Lorian's Slot Package from the Shop with Gold.
Be sure to claim the Fatigue gifts from Daily Get Get Time as well.
You receive 10 Fatigue during 08:00~14:59 and another 10 Fatigue during 15:00~22:00.
One useful approach is to log in around 2:50 PM, use all 110 Fatigue, then claim and use the additional 10 as soon as it is 3 PM.
Be sure to claim the Fatigue in separate batches of 10 rather than taking all 20 at once. Claiming 20 at once only allows 5 Hell's Fire runs, while claiming 10 twice allows 6 runs in total. The same principle applies when using Fatigue Potions.
Check the remaining events, then move on to your dungeon farming routine.
Dungeon Farming Routine
You can complete daily missions on up to 10 characters per day.
A daily mission awards an additional set of Hell's Fire rewards when you clear a farming dungeon once. This is why farming dungeons sometimes drop rewards normally exclusive to Hell's Fire, such as Legacy equipment.
The standard daily routine is therefore 1 farming dungeon run + 20 Hell's Fire runs, since equipment has a higher drop rate in Hell's Fire.
The Consecutive Clear system uses slightly more Invitations but lets you complete the equivalent of 5 runs at once. The time savings are substantial, so make use of it whenever possible.
If you run out of Invitations, stick to farming dungeons for the rest of the day.
Wednesday
Before DNF day (Thursday maintenance), open the Content Status overview and check that you have completed Disaster Dungeons, Sirocco Raid, and the Elite Dungeon (Hollow of Extinction). Check that you have finished all your Weekly Dungeons, Squad Rush, and Battleground of Proof runs as well.
Also check that you have claimed all your Weekly Adventure Achievement rewards. The Gold Dungeon rewards were moved here to make them easier to collect, and they provide a substantial amount of Gold, so be sure to claim them all.
There are also purchases to check in the Currency Shop.
Check that you have bought Catalyst Fragments with Friendship Points, purchased items with Tempering Tokens (raid currency), and bought Catalysts with Guild Contribution Coins.
You earn Guild Contribution Coins by spending Fatigue after joining a guild, and you should normally spend them only on Catalysts here. Guild Recovery Potions are an option in an emergency, but you can instead use Glory Crystals (Adventure Team currency) to buy 120 Adventure Team Recovery Potions each month.
When spending Tempering Tokens, make it a routine to buy all available Terra and Gold every week. Since the Gold items are character-bound, be sure to purchase them on the intended character.
Also buy Ryan Cokes, Catalyst Fragments, Exceed Equipment Pots, and Light-infused Epic Equipment Pots every month. If you have tokens left, buy all available Data Chips and crafting materials, then choose from the remaining items as needed.

There are also purchases to make in the Exchange.
I recommend Hell Party Invitations, Sacred Relics of Protection (Sirocco Raid entry tickets), Epic and Exceed Souls, Epic Equipment Pots, Transcendence Stone Particles, Castle of the Dead Specialty Boxes, and Luck-infused Pots purchased with Epic and Exceed Souls. If you are short on Souls, give Hell Party Invitations a lower priority.
For characters whose progression you want to prioritize, buy Ryan Cokes and Cosmo Essence as well. Add Skill Runes and Kaleido Boxes if needed.
If you have Exceed Souls to spare, I also recommend buying the Earring Bead (best-in-slot).
Keep some Epic Souls in reserve, as you may need them for equipment crafting. Upgrading an Epic weapon to an Exceed weapon requires 300 Epic Souls, while equipment crafting also uses a substantial amount, at 50~100 per item.
Exceed Souls are also needed to create equipment stored in the Armory, so keep a small reserve of those as well.
In practice, the easiest approach is to complete all these Currency Shop and Exchange purchases in one session, as soon as you log in after Thursday maintenance.
Closing Notes
Finally, open your inventory, click the D icon, and use any items that are close to expiring.
Items display a red D when they have about 1 day left, making them easy to spot, but it is still worth getting into the habit of checking well before they expire.
That covers the daily login routine for new and returning DNF Mobile players.
The supply of Ryan Cokes from the Mystery Shop has increased considerably recently, and achievement rewards make Gold easier to obtain. With these resources available, I believe you can build a well-geared character by playing a little each day.
I have followed this approach for a long time and documented my recent character progression in the post below, which you can use as a reference.
