Trickcal Chibi Go Beginner Guide – Progression Systems

Trickcal: Chibi Go is a strategic idle RPG featuring adorable chibi-styled characters, deep elemental team mechanics, and automated combat with strong collection and progression systems.

This Trickcal Chibi Go Beginner Guide is designed to help new players understand the game’s key systems — leveling, gearing, team synergy, and resource management — while avoiding common early mistakes.

If you’re just starting, read this before spending your resources or summoning too aggressively. Trickcal rewards planning and synergy over brute force.

Core Gameplay Loop

At its core, Trickcal: Chibi Go follows a familiar idle RPG structure:

1. Collect units through gacha or story rewards.
2. Level up, gear, and ascend your main team.
3. Push stages and modes to unlock rewards.
4. Claim idle income from your Homestead.
5. Repeat daily tasks to earn currencies and progress.

Your main goal early on is to build a balanced 6-character team and slowly raise their star levels while unlocking new systems that increase overall account power.

Key Currencies Explained

Progression Systems

1. Levels & Gear

• Leveling is your first major power gain. Keep your main six units leveled equally.
• Gear is crafted using Gold + Gear Tablets (obtained in dungeons).
• Once maxed, you can reinforce gear (+1 to +5) using blueprints or crystals for extra stats.

2. Skills

Skills use Marshmallows matching your unit’s class (Attacker, Defender, or Supporter).

Always prioritize damage skills or healing skills before passive ones.

Skill caps increase as characters reach higher star ranks.

3. Star Uncap

• Uncapping stars uses Certificates, which come from duplicate pulls.
• Each uncap increases a character’s level cap and stat growth.
• Star uncaps are crucial for late-game scaling.

4. Crayon Board

• Crayon Boards act as a universal stat grid system.
• Golden Crayon nodes grant team-wide passive buffs.
• Focus on offensive and golden nodes first — they give the best returns early on.
• Each character’s Crayon Board can be expanded further using Certificates once you hit “gates.”

5. Exclusive Equipment (Asides)

• Once a character hits max star, extra dupes unlock their exclusive gear slot.
• Not all characters have these yet — limited or Eldain characters usually do first.
• These items significantly boost their core skill performance.

Understanding Team Building

Team Elemental Bonuses

Trickcal teams benefit from element synergy bonuses:

• 2+ of the same element grants stat boosts.
• 4-2 setups (four of one element and two of another) are often optimal for flexibility.
• Some Eldain units can override these rules with unique synergy traits.

Roles and Balance

• Attackers deal damage and burst enemies.
• Defenders soak hits and protect the backline.
• Supporters heal, buff, or debuff enemies.

Try to keep a 2-2-2 ratio early (2 of each role type) until you understand your roster.

The Eldain Units

Eldains are rare, limited characters that have lower drop rates but much higher performance ceilings.
They can appear in any banner but have only 0.32% base chance per summon.

You can recognize an Eldain by their unique golden tag on the character info screen.

Why They Matter

• Eldains are top-tier across all content.
• Their synergy traits often define the meta.
• Certificates for them are rare — you can only buy a few per month in the Certificate Shop.

The Homestead System

The Homestead is your idle hub where most long-term resource income comes from.
It’s divided into several buildings you’ll gradually upgrade:

1. Factory

• Used to craft items, furniture, and conduct research.
• Research grants passive stat bonuses for all characters.
• Upgrading increases slots and available projects.

2. Restaurant

• Bond with characters by feeding them food you cook.
• Higher bond = more passive stat boosts + new story scenes.
• Prioritize feeding your main team daily.

3. House

• Customizable with furniture and pets.
• The Shrine here passively collects rewards (stamina, Crayons, etc.) every ~20 hours.
• Always collect Shrine rewards daily — they’re a key part of progression.

4. Employment Center

• Send characters on jobs to collect Gold, Crayons, and other materials.
• Bigwood or Ran are great early options due to wide material pools.

5. Archives

• Logs progress, achievements, and furniture collections.
• Occasionally grants Elifs or other bonuses.

Tip: Always upgrade your House first. Its level unlocks higher caps for other buildings.
