Granblue Fantasy Relink has a lot of depth still left to it even after you beat the main story. Throughout the main story, you're always given the feeling that there's a lot more to the game. For example, you can only play the normal quests and don't really figure out how to unlock the hard quests in Granblue Fantasy Relink.
Higher-difficulty quests are obviously a lot more difficult, but they're always worth doing because of the increase in rewards. The increase in rewards is substantial enough that they remain worthwhile even if they take longer to do. So today we'll go over the Skyfarer Grade and how to unlock Hard quests in Granblue Fantasy Relink.
While you're here be sure to learn how long the game takes to beat and read our full review of the game.
How to unlock hard-difficulty quests
You unlock hard difficulty quests after you beat the main story and clear the quest 'New Mr Fix It' after you reach Episode 0. This will increase your Skyfarer Grade from Novice to Veteran and unlock three new quest difficulties including, Hard, Very Hard, and Extreme.
We'll avoid spoilers but this task involves following the mission markers and playing through some quests with a character who is unlocked at the end of the game. Once you're at Episode 0 you just need to follow the story marker missions until you get to the New Mr Fix It quest. You also get some extra rewards for each Rank-Up.
How to increase Skyfarer Grade
To increase your Skyfarer Grade you need to complete a special quest called a Rank-Up quest. You need to complete Rank-Up quests every time you want to unlock the next difficulty of quests. The Rank-Up quest will be available at the quest counter and will have a special purple icon.
Once you successfully complete the quest, you will unlock the next difficulty. As mentioned earlier, you need to complete the New Mr Fix It quest to rank up from Normal to Hard. After that, you need to complete subsequent Rank-Up quests for Hard to Very Hard and so on.
