What to verify
Before heavy pre-farm, confirm the exact boss-drop and shared-upgrade path that matters most for Cartethyia in Version 3.4 The Dream Not Dreamed.
Why this matters now
This page should keep your material plan aligned with Version 3.4 The Dream Not Dreamed, while still protecting resources you may need for Version 3.3 Phase 2.
What you can safely do now
Use this page to pre-plan stamina around Version 3.4 The Dream Not Dreamed. Safe work usually means shared credits, common field drops, and broad upgrade routes that still help even if Cartethyia changes slightly at live confirmation.
What should wait
Leave rare boss routing, weekly lock-ins, and one-character-only farming until Cartethyia is fully confirmed in-game. That matters even more if you may switch resources toward Denia, Chisa, Phrolova in Version 3.3 Phase 2.
Where this page sits
Use this support page as the narrow layer after the Cartethyia guide hub. The clean route is character list, then Cartethyia hub, then this page, then the sibling support page you need next.
What to compare before locking
Before heavy stamina spending, compare Cartethyia against the still competing needs of Denia, Chisa, Phrolova. Materials pages are strongest when they tell users what is safe now and what should wait.
Cartethyia-specific planning notes
Use Cartethyia pages to prep in layers before Version 3.4 The Dream Not Dreamed goes live. This is the right moment to decide role, fallback weapon path, and what can safely be prepared before final live confirmation.
If Cartethyia is competing with the live phase
If Cartethyia is only one option among several, this page should keep comparing that route against the immediate pull value in Version 3.3 Phase 2 instead of assuming the next phase automatically wins.
Cartethyia scenario guide
| If this is you | Best move | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You are definitely saving for Cartethyia | Pre-farm safe shared routes | Cartethyia is in Version 3.4 The Dream Not Dreamed, so this is the right time to collect low-risk materials. |
| You still may spend on the live phase | Delay rare material lock-in | Keep room for Version 3.3 Phase 2 until Cartethyia is fully live or fully confirmed in-game. |
| You want the safest prep path | Split farming into low-risk and high-risk buckets | That keeps your stamina plan useful even if your pull decision changes. |
Cartethyia materials playbook
| Lane | Best move | Why it exists |
|---|---|---|

| Wait-for-live bucket | Rare locked drops and route-specific items | These should stay flexible until Cartethyia is fully live or fully confirmed in-game. |
| Compare-first bucket | Anything that competes directly with live-banner spending | If the live phase still matters, compare against Version 3.3 Phase 2 before locking stamina. |

| Soft-commit stock | Routes that matter if Cartethyia stays your likely target | Useful while Cartethyia is a strong candidate, but still compare against Version 3.3 Phase 2. |
| Release-lock stock | Rare locked items and final route commitments | Best delayed until Version 3.4 The Dream Not Dreamed is live and Cartethyia still looks worth the full spend. |
