Daily Priority in Ragnarok: The New World — What to Do First

Quick Answer — Priority at a Glance

ROW rewards players who do the right tasks in the right order, not those who grind the longest. This guide ranks every recurring activity from S+ (must-do) to C (skip unless bored) so you never waste Combat Energy on low-value targets or miss MVP windows after reset.

Last verified July 27, 2026 — week two day 6 on SEA servers. Pair this page with Daily Routine for full task descriptions and Energy System for stamina mechanics.

TierActivityWhy It Matters
S+Daily check-in + claim mailFree coins, food, and event tokens — 5 seconds
S+Spend Combat Energy on Recommended targetsLargest EXP gain per point when 110% bonus is active
SBoard Quests (refresh to orange)Best EXP-per-minute after Energy
STime Corridor (all daily entries)Gear materials beat most field farms
AParadise Dance + daily eventsZero-combat Paradise Coins
AGuild orders + donationsSteady Zeny and guild EXP
BMVP hunts (up to 5 rewarded kills)High value post-reset; situational by bracket
BExploration / treasure chestsRefine mats after level cap — see Exploration & Treasures
CRandom grinding after Energy hits zeroDiminishing returns — switch to offline auto-hunt

10-Minute Essentials (Minimum Viable Day)

Short on time? This sequence captures ~80% of daily value in under ten minutes:

  1. Claim check-in and mailbox — codes, login streaks, and overflow rewards from yesterday.
  2. Check Recommended Monster list — if a 110% EXP target is active, spend Combat Energy immediately before it rotates.
  3. Refresh Board Quests once — accept only orange-quality commissions in your level bracket.
  4. Run Time Corridor if entries are about to cap — two entries regenerate daily, max storage four.
  5. Activate offline auto-hunt — requires Kafra VIP Pass for best rates.

Skip guild tasks, MVP callouts, and exploration on ultra-short days — but never skip Energy on a good Recommended target. One wasted Energy day costs more than skipping a week of optional content.

30-Minute Sweet Spot (Most Players)

Add these after the 10-minute core when you have a normal session:

  • Paradise Dance at the Prontera stage — spend coins at Paradise Shop on upgrade mats.
  • Complete all Board Quests after orange refresh — do not accept white/green tasks unless they finish in one kill.
  • Guild orders — fastest Zeny outside dungeons; details in Guild Guide.
  • Life Stamina gathering — set professions running while you do combat tasks; do not let Life Stamina cap at reset.
  • Redeem any new codes from All Redeem CodesROWGO1ST and eleven launch strings still verified July 27.

Week two habit: run MVP hunts immediately after server reset when guild schedules align — less competition and participation loot funds refine pushes per MVP Hunt Priority.

60-Minute Maximizer (Dedicated Days)

Everything in the 30-minute routine, plus:

  • Full Time Corridor push — use all stored entries; week two players target Level 40+ floors for Royal Equipment materials.
  • Brave Trial + Endless Tower weekly attempts before maintenance reset.
  • MVP hunts until rewarded kill cap — typically five rewarded kills per day; coordinate via guild voice.
  • Treasure chest sweep on maps you unlocked — Oridecon, Elunium, and Adventure Coins add up; route in F2P Roadmap.
  • Pet food + evolution check — feed active pet before logging out; see Pets & Mounts.

Watch the embedded daily routine video below, then compare mistakes to avoid in Beginner Mistakes.

What to Skip (Common Time Wasters)

  • Farming under-level monsters after Energy depletes — level penalty crushes EXP per minute.
  • Using Time Corridor entries on Day 1 — save all four for Day 2 Level 40 Hard Dungeon (Red Crystal drops).
  • Spreading refine across eight jobs — commit one farmer by week two per Job Freedom Strategy.
  • Chasing SSR pets before +7 weapon — gear first, cosmetics second.
  • Ignoring orange board refresh — white quests pay a fraction of orange for the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I do main quest or dailies first?
After tutorial: dailies first on days when Energy and board resets matter. Main quest when it unlocks new systems or blocks progression. Never let Energy cap while doing side content.
Is Paradise Dance worth it every day?
Yes — it takes under a minute and yields Paradise Coins for upgrade materials. Skip only on days you literally cannot log in.
When should I spend Life Stamina vs Combat Energy?
Combat Energy first for EXP on Recommended targets. Life Stamina for gathering and crafting after combat tasks — see Energy System for the full split.
Can I skip MVP hunts in week two?
You can, but you lose participation loot and refine materials that accelerate +10 weapon goals. Prioritize at least one post-reset MVP if your guild schedules one.
