So a day or two i gained several levels went up from the 30s to 42 leveling up to refill my stamina and keep going. Today i decided to farm the Manyu Spirit quest just to boost my units, and after a few runs i was completely drained of stamina with barely any xp to get another level up. Would you guys recommend farming them or just grinding xp for the rewards?

IMO best way to level up during early levels are 2-1 ---> Secret Garden till around 50%-80% exp bar filled (changes depending on your current level) then use ALL your gathers and stamina on either manyu daily (if it's up) or presents and leveling up on the last stamina spent. Personally i don't like the manyu daily, rather prefer SGs. They are a more consistent way of getting manyu spirits.

TLDR: Newer players do manyu daily before levelling up, otherwise stick to 12 stamina secret gardens

If I had your Lv, I would choice to play Normal quest 5-3, cost 25 stamina and give oportunity to find SG that cost 12 stamina a good 313 xp for begginers. If you play sometimes and use gattering to get more stamina you will raise your Lv fast . I used the manyus only to got 3 * medals and got flower completing than no more.

Now I'm using only the event ?-1 or ?-4 to got some coins at same time to find some SG. But this is a option from player to player not all like do like me.

What is a good way to get manyu then? I need a lot of those to level up my girl

Like Mystic said, farm 2-1 for the secret garden.

LOL when i said do manyu daily or presents, that's IF AND ONLY IF you have EXCESS STAMINA which is going to be LOST upon levelling up.

Ok thanks guys, i'm gonna do more secret gardens from now on and see how the xp / stamina ratio compares to the stage 10-13 quests.
Hopefully get some manyu from them too

Do them if you really want that type of manyus... todays daily for instance, do it if you didnt ONLY maxed red and blue girls.

Manyu dailies are more reliable for getting manyus of 2 specified colors (getting manyus of that color AT ALL), but their XP/Gold/Seeds to stamina ratios are terrible. They're mostly useful if:

1) You have lots of excess stamina to burn and you're nearing level up
2) You REALLY need manyus of those two colors and don't really need the other 2 colors
3) You don't feel like "chancing it" with SG spawns (since those are random)

Ultimately, it's not recommended to farm them at low levels due to the fact they eat through your stamina REALLY quickly without much XP in return (80 stamina daily gives 160 XP, 50 gives 100, 25 gives 50) and you'd rather gain Commander levels to raise max stamina.

Recommended path:
1-3/2-1 spam + SGs until team is around level 30+
12-3 spam + SGs until you're satisfied with your girls' levels (12-3 can be cleared REALLY quickly compared to 12-5 and the 13 maps)

Alternate Path, requires strong helpers:
1-3/2-1 spam + SGs, pick your favorite girl that you have and pour ALL manyus of her color into her, powerleveling her to 30+
Ride helper squads through every maps until you reach 12-3
Spam 12-3 endlessly to generate SGs, putting ALL squads on the top left camp, bypassing the bottom and left sides of the maps for REALLY quick clears
Once you're happy with your squads' levels, go back and 3* all those maps you cheesed through with the helper squads

12-3 one super fast squad - top left

4 super slow bottom middle

You want to gather all the chests you can too for chances at ampys

I still use 12-3 as my default SG farming point - i found the manny daily far too low reward vs stamina compared to SG farming
