Fairy Tail Facilities Upgrade Guide
Upgrading your Fairy Tale Base opens up a lot of options in the game, and it’s vital to progress. This Fairy Tail Facilities Upgrade Guide has everything you need to know about upgrading different facilities within the Fairy Tail Guild’s lodgings, including what’s best to upgrade first and the items required to upgrade.
Once you complete Episode 1 of Chapter 1, you will unlock the ability to upgrade various facilities for the guild. It’s a simple process, using the Guild Ledger opens the interface where you can choose what to upgrade. All upgrades cost Jewels (J), which is the games primary currency. Sometimes you will need to progress to a certain point before an upgrade is available, other times you will need to find a certain item. We’ve got it all covered below.
You can upgrade multiple Facilities at once, which saves time coming back and forth to the guild hall. When you are searching for the special items, simply look for the hammer icon on the appropriate map, it will lead you directly to the item you require. You can get all of the first upgrades as soon as facility upgrades become available, but it’s a good idea to focus on Requests first to greatly increase the Jewels you can earn to upgrade the other areas. However, you can check the information and see what best suits your style.
At the beginning you will only have the option to upgrade the Shop, Request Board, and Laboratory. As you progress you will unlock the Storeroom, Library, and Kitchen – as well as the option to Remodel Facilities. Remodeling adds additional bonuses to each facility. During the final days of the Grand Magic Games, you will unlock the Bar Counter and Table Set options/
