This issue brings the seventh chapter of the beginner's guide for the Dream, in which everyone needs to gather various partners to fight against nightmares, advance the main storyline through battles, and protect the world. However, since many beginners are just starting out and are not very familiar with character selection and combat, the following beginner's guide will help you better understand and get started, allowing you to enjoy adventures in this dream world.

1. Recommended Characters for Beginners
If you're lucky enough to draw an SSR directly, it is recommended to use it right away. If you don't draw one, it's okay. SR cards like Pan, Jasmine, Kiki, Daimeng, and An are all great. Pan has a fantastic mechanism that increases output based on the number of empty spaces on both sides, making him a good single-target damage dealer in the early to mid-game. However, be sure to pay attention to the enemy's taunts and tanks, letting your teammates deal with them first to maximize damage. Jasmine's ultimate skill provides substantial healing to a single target and can also buff allies in the same row; her ultimate skill locking onto the enemy with the lowest HP can sometimes have unexpected effects.
Kiki's passive ability can increase damage for allies, and her ultimate skill includes control. With her passive fully stacked, she can also deal decent damage. Daimeng has moderate healing, and her passive can revive the ally with the lowest HP, making her useful even in the late game. Finally, An can summon mermaids and princesses to boost allies' damage and grant invulnerability. If killed, her ultimate skill can summon a doll to continue dealing damage.

2. Team Composition
In terms of team composition, the game revolves around the captain system. Not only does their survival determine victory or defeat, but the aura bonuses they provide are also significant. Therefore, if beginners are unsure how to build a strong team, they should start with the captain, trying to activate their aura. For example, to activate the Charge Horn, you need to deploy Xiao Ye, Jasmine, and two from the Flower Sea Season. After setting up the team, add 2-3 area damage dealers and 1-2 healers.

3. Resource Allocation
The basic resources include gold, crystals, and experience. Crystals are the most scarce. It is recommended to purchase twice daily after reaching level 30. The arena shop mainly offers partner stones, accessories, and honor gems, and the guild is similar. Once you have a certain amount of crystals, upgrade the Venus building first, followed by the tree, bed, recliner, lamp, cart, and car. It's best to follow the level progression. Using SR equipment is sufficient, as even new players have a high chance of obtaining SR gear, which is easy to cultivate. A level 20 SSR's combat power is not as high as a level 30 SR, so waiting for an SSR can significantly impact early strength.
4. Basic Combat Mechanics
During battles, both sides occupy their own 9-square grid. The protagonist, positioned at the 8th spot, will be on the field before the battle starts. In most cases, the side that defeats the enemy's 8th spot first is considered the winner. Therefore, attacking the enemy's 8th spot and avoiding damage for your own 8th spot is the core tactic for beginners. Cost is the main resource during battles, increasing over time. When this resource is insufficient, the character's portrait will turn gray. When there's enough, you can drag the standby character to your position to assist in combat. Once placed, the position cannot be changed. A newly deployed character will immediately release a special skill to turn the tide. If killed, they cannot be redeployed. The 8th spot, in particular, accumulates rage through taking or dealing damage, releasing a powerful ultimate skill.

5. Early Game Strategy
The first four chapters are relatively easy. Starting from the middle of Chapter 5, most beginners may find the protagonist to be quite fragile, often dying after a few hits, affecting the progress of the story. At this point, remember to reinforce the protagonist's weapon and armor to level 10, then go through the collapse stages. After leveling up, return to Chapter 5, and it will be much easier. The same strategy applies later. If you get stuck in the main story, it means the protagonist's level is too low. Just wait until the next day, complete daily tasks to level up, and it will become much easier.

Above is the beginner's guide for the seventh chapter of the Dream. The above explains how beginners should choose characters and engage in combat. After understanding, make sure to apply these strategies. Finally, we hope that players can obtain more characters, enhance the protagonist's strength, and write their own adventure stories.
