Introduction
I began playing Brown Dust 2 in early April 2024 (according to my daily login achievement, that puts me at April 2, but the banner/powder shop offerings at the time put me at April 10) and I'm entirely F2P. I had probably the crappiest start to my account (Justia from infinite roll, terrible banners, not getting Kry's default costume until quite late in the story). The only good luck I had early on was getting Maid Name R Liatris off-banner and Game Club Rafina from the powder shop and these +0 costumes carried me for a very long time.
I started writing these guides because I got tired of seeing the same questions and answers exchanged. When it came to team building, the answers tended to be too terse and rarely taught the asker how to make their own.
