Gameplay Basics
Seal of Fate is a turn-based RPG with idle elements. Dive into the storyline right away—it’s your main source of early rewards like Coins, EXP books, potions, summon tickets, and supplies. Each chapter has subtasks and ends with a boss battle.
- Combat Mechanics: Battles are automatic but strategic. Your squad attacks first, then enemies. Monitor HP bars (health) and Energy Bars (fill to unleash powerful Ultimates). Use Ultimates wisely for massive damage. Experiment with skills to learn combos.
- Classes: Meowmates fall into Guardians (tanks with high HP, e.g., Lan), Supports (buffs/heals, e.g., Vera), Strikers (high DPS, e.g., Jerry), and Raiders (fast combo attackers, e.g., Asuka).
- Bonds: Pair Meowmates with synergies for bonuses like +HP, damage resistance, or attack speed. This can turn tough fights around.
Pro Tip: Play on PC with an emulator for better controls, multi-account management, and macros to farm resources efficiently.
Progression Tips
Level up fast to unlock features:
- Level 4: Meowmate Upgrades.
- Level 8: Tier Ups.
- Level 10: Summoning and full squad slots (unlock Slot 4 at Chapter 2-1, Slots 5-6 at Lv. 10).
Complete story chapters for EXP and resources. Focus on daily quests, events, and boss challenges for steady gains. Reroll accounts if needed (using multi-instances) to snag strong SSR Meowmates early—aim for at least one top-tier like Lunelle or Valkyria.
Team Building & Tier List
Build a squad of up to 6 Meowmates. A balanced starter team: 1 Guardian, 2 Strikers, 2 Raiders, 1 Support. Activate Bonds for extra power.
Meowmate Tier List (Global Launch)
Based on versatility, damage, utility, and ease of use. S-tier are meta must-haves; B-tier are situational or early-game fillers.
| Tier | Meowmates | Description |
|---|---|---|
| S | Lilith, Ruriken, Lunelle, Noah, Somniel, Lan, Angela, Hanura, Fyre, Cryonica, Sanctina, Valkyria, Annabelle, Khione, Vicky, Raven, Stargazer, Asuka, Lucia | Top performers with strong abilities, bonds, and low investment needs. E.g., Noah for DPS, Somniel for heals. Great for all modes. |
| A | Emilia, Vera, Allen, Moyu, IronFist, Grimoire, Bubbly, Lancelot, Cookie, Moo, Bishop, Mary, Leon, Bard, Meeh, Judie, Jerry | Solid picks for specific teams. E.g., Vera for buffs, Mary for DPS with upgrades. Versatile but may need Star-Ups. |
| B | Siren, Helsing, Rosalyn, Dune, Sweetie, Ellie, Snowball, Morgana, Luna, Grace, Blaze, Pinky, Stella, Candice, Fishbowl, Cuddle, Huntress | Useful early but outclassed later. E.g., Siren for niche heals. Invest minimally until you get higher tiers. |
Beginner Squad Recommendation: Start with the “Leading Casts” team – Vera, Khione, Asuka, Grace, Judie, Jerry. Easy to get duplicates via events, strong bonds, and Vera’s buffs amplify everyone. For elemental focuses (e.g., Burn or True Damage), check faction-specific guides on official socials.
Resource Management
- Leveling: Use EXP potions from stories to boost stats (HP, ATK, etc.).
- Tier Up: Equip resources to unlock skills and enhance stats.
- Star Up: Duplicates raise rarity (to UR) for major power spikes.
- Summoning: Unlocked at Lv. 10. Use tickets/gems for SSR pulls (50+ summons needed for guarantees). Focus resources on 3-4 core Meowmates—don’t spread thin.
Save gems for banners with pity systems. Farm dailies and events for free tickets.
