Astrology/Training

This article is about training the Astrology skill. For the skill itself, see Astrology.

Training

Study on the highest level Constellation that is unlocked. It may be useful to reach 80 Mastery in each Constellation before moving on, as this will unlock 5 Modifiers for each Constellation, giving you some decent bonuses for other skills. This will slow your leveling, but will grant various benefits to other skills.

Secret Stardust Potions can be used to increase the rate of leveling, but it is only suggested to be used if high levels of preservation and doubling can be obtained to maximize the amount of potions created per Stardust used. Using Alchemist's Bags can also reduce potion usage while actually training the skill.

The below table lists the amount of time that would be spent training on each constellation supposing that neither XP boosts nor action interval reductions applied. Therefore, players should expect to reach Level 99 somewhat quicker than is stated below.

Constellation		Level	Time
	Deedree	1-9	00:11:33
	Iridan	10-19	00:12:45
	Ameria	20-29	00:21:12
	Terra	30-39	00:41:09
	Vale	40-49	01:26:39
	Syllia	50-59	03:11:33
	Arachi	60-69	07:17:39
	Ko	70-79	17:03:18
	Tellus	80-89	1 days, 16:35:00
	Hyden	90-94	1 days, 13:04:09
	Qimican	95-99	1 days, 17:47:36
Total			6 days, 05:52:33

Only use the Devil synergy if you have maxed Golden Stardust upgrades.
