Separating one-time first-clear rewards from repeatable mission rewards helps direct endgame runs toward the right goal.

WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Uncleared Chaos or unlocked DLC missions on the world map.
Mission clears may offer a first-time reward alongside rewards that can be collected on later runs. The strategic choice is to clear a new stage when its one-time reward matters, then repeat a manageable mission only for its recurring payout or ordinary equipment. This applies across accessible Chaos missions and eligible DLC stages; the exact reward and access requirements depend on the selected mission.
Have a mission available with a first-clear reward that advances your goal.
Check the mission level and reward details before starting.
Open the mission list and identify stages you have not cleared.
Inspect each candidate’s first-clear and recurring rewards separately.
Choose an uncleared mission whose one-time reward is useful and whose level you can manage.
Complete it and claim the first-clear reward.
Return to the board and confirm that the reward has been collected rather than expecting it again.
For repeat farming, select a manageable stage based on its recurring crystal reward or ordinary gear drops.
Reassess the board when you need another limited reward or the repeat route stops helping.
Farming tips
Keep a note of the next mission reward you want; it helps avoid spending effort on a first-clear bonus that does not fit your build.
Use in-game reward panels to resolve differences between mission sets and DLC progression.
Repeat, collect and use
The first-clear reward is one-time per eligible mission. The mission itself may be replayed for ordinary drops and recurring listed rewards.
Common mistakes
Repeating a cleared stage to obtain its first-clear item again; select an uncleared stage for another first-clear reward.
Assuming the repeat reward equals the first-clear reward; check both listings separately.
Ignoring DLC access gates; only plan around stages actually unlocked for your edition and progression.
When to stop or switch
Stop hunting first-clear rewards when the remaining ones do not serve your current build. Switch to a repeatable gear or crystal route until a new progression target matters.
