(dd/mm/yyyy)
#1: Buy 1 chara per shop at a time, refresh shop if having excess currency. Do not buy gear outside Bonus Shop.
#2: Units close with ⇄ symbol means is ordering is flexible among them, still finish all those units before moving to the next priority. If lacking orbs for 6✭ then skip to next and comeback later.
#3: UE = Unique Equipment (unlocked at 9-1 Normal.) When MAX UE is mentioned, at least do LV130, more only when affordable. If no MAX UE is mentioned, LV30-70 is very fine. If lacking Princess Hearts, skip UE (or levels) and star more or go to next priority.
#4: Unreleased 6✭ and UE are mentioned at times, it means they are close enough to be released it is worth to start prefarming now for them so you are ready by when they are out.

If you plan in going Competitive CB (at least top 50, normally top 25) in the future, keep those UE that give HP/defense in support characters on LV1, and keep them at 3★ (except those with 6✭, always go for 6✭), while prefarming for 5★ when needed, as ★ gives HP/defense, too. They are undesired stats in Competitive CB as they reduce TP gained from getting hit, which can mess up UB timings.
However this will worsen you in PvE/PvP, and also in CB until you join a top 50 clan or one aspiring for that, since you also need intense manual play using timelines (prepared list with order in which you use your UBs, provided by the clan) to even benefit from this, otherwise your characters will just randomly die and lose damage.
I just mention this since you will hear it elsewhere from unaware people that spams "brick brick" without even knowing the mean or consequences behind it. And people with everything giga maxed can still join even top 10 clans, you will just find more troubles.
