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, and subsequently Level 120, significantly quicker than is stated below. For example, maxing the Astrology Skill XP and Interval Modifiers within Variel will negate a day of training from 100-120. Reaching -20% Astrology interval and +24% Astrology (arbitrarily chosen percentages, but easily obtainable), will make Levels 100-120 take 4 days less--a 40% decrease in time.
