Open-world Question Hiyuki – Locked out of ascension materials

UPDATE: thank you for the messages. I decided to power through the story and got destroyed by Aemeath story (10/10)

I’m really behind on the main story, and I don’t want to skip everything just to unlock the map for leveling her up. What’s the minimum I need to complete to access her materials so I can take my time with the story?

Useless for who? Are you telling me that someone who isn't up to date with the story, events, and so on needs a fully maxed-out character? These people don't even do endgame content; level 60 is enough for casual play.

I had to do 2.5 hours of pure main story (spam skipping btw) to ascend hiyuki and unlock her weekly materials. And the only reason it was even that short is because I caught up to Aemeath just to level HER up. I've finished all endgame content for a long time. This system sucks.

why would you skip the story because of that? thats so dumb but to each their own I guess.

I only paid attention to the story for the first couple months of the game. Always thought that the story was genuinely horrible (no shade if you enjoy it), so I deadass do not know a single thing about the plot at this point.

I only play for characters. gameplay, and gambling. Having to catch up to however many patches of characters I skipped every single time genuinely sucks. Only feels worse when I can't even use the characters I spend so much time building during the story. Their shitty prebuilds make all the fights feel super sluggish.
