So. I got lucky early on last year and was able to get A2 Divergent Attacker and 9S Divergent Scanner in my rolls (i never got 2B even with this years return. i was upset) and I kind of been riding on their coat tails ever since. I enhanced them to level 70 and they've been there ever since. I've also enhanced weapons to level 60 to get a force up to like 60000. Here's where I'm lost. I can't seem to get my force higher. I'm not sure what I can do. I was VERY lucky on passing chapter 12 and ending the main campaign? But with starting Sun/Moon and them throwing the first gate with a force of 80000, I feel defeated already. Am I missing something that I barely got my team up to 70000? I feel like I missed something incredibly important that I keep on hitting walls in story progress? Like i'm starting to think that it's like pokemon, where using rare candy/enhancing materials actually makes the characters weaker? Or is it the characters i'm using?

tl;dr: I beat the main campaign by sheer luck and I cannot fathom how I could possibly get my force up to 80000 for the sun/moon campaign.

Thank you in advance.
