Devil Hunter Yen Farming Guide
Goal: Earn 70K+ Yen per day consistently without gambling
Target Audience: All players level 20+
The Optimal Daily Routine
Total Time: ~2 hours Total Yen: 70K+ Consistency: 100% (no RNG)
Routine Breakdown
Daily Missions (30 mins) → 15K Yen
Bat Devil Raid x3 (45 mins) → 30K Yen
PvP Wins x5 (30 mins) → 25K Yen
─────────────────────────────────
TOTAL: ~2 hours → 70K Yen
Why this works:
- No gambling (consistent income)
- Time-efficient (35K Yen/hour)
- Sustainable (can do daily)
- All tasks have skill-based success
Income Source #1: Daily Missions (CRITICAL)
Income: 15K Yen Time: 30 minutes Priority: HIGHEST (always do this first)
Why Daily Missions Matter
- Time-gated: Resets every 24 hours
- Guaranteed: No RNG, 100% success rate
- Essential: Missing one day = -15K Yen
- Accumulates: Miss 10 days = -150K (that's an S-tier contract)
Rule: NEVER skip daily missions. Log in even on busy days.
Daily Mission Types
1. Combat Missions (5-10 mins)
- "Defeat 20 enemies in any mode"
- "Win 3 PvE battles"
- "Complete 1 raid"
2. Social Missions (2-5 mins)
- "Join a group raid"
- "Add 1 friend"
- "Send 3 emotes"
3. Collection Missions (5-10 mins)
- "Collect 10 resources"
- "Open 5 chests"
- "Talk to 3 NPCs"
4. Time Investment Missions (10-15 mins)
- "Play for 15 minutes"
- "Complete 2 contracts worth of activities"
- "Reach X location"
Optimization Strategy
The 30-Minute Clear:
- Log in: Check mission board (0 mins)
- Quick missions: Social + Collection first (10 mins)
- Combat bundle: Do combat missions during PvE farming (15 mins)
- Time investment: Auto-completes while doing other activities (5 mins)
Pro tip: Do combat missions WHILE farming raids. Double efficiency.
What If You Miss a Day?
Impact Analysis:
- Miss 1 day: -15K Yen (recoverable)
- Miss 3 days: -45K Yen (sets you back 2 days)
- Miss 7 days: -105K Yen (major setback)
- Miss 14 days: -210K Yen (that's 6 days of full routine)
If you missed multiple days:
- Don't panic
- Start fresh today
- Focus on consistency from now on
- You'll catch up in 2-3 days of full routine
Remember: Yesterday's losses are gone. Today is Day 1.
Income Source #2: Bat Devil Raid Farming
Income: 30K Yen (3 runs × 10K each) Time: 45 minutes Priority: HIGH
Why Bat Devil Raid?
Compared to other raids:
| Raid | Yen/Run | Time/Run | Yen/Hour | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bat Devil | 10K | 15 mins | 40K | Medium |
| Spider Devil | 12K | 25 mins | 28.8K | Hard |
| Control Devil | 15K | 35 mins | 25.7K | Very Hard |
Bat Devil wins on Yen/hour efficiency (even though drop is smaller).
Optimal Bat Raid Strategy
Solo Clear (15 mins):
Phase 1: Entry (2 mins)
- Use Violence Devil or Fox Devil
- Clear entry mobs efficiently
- Don't waste abilities on trash
Phase 2: Boss Fight (10 mins)
- Dodge sonic scream (one-shot kill)
- Attack during wing cooldown
- Save burst for 30% HP (enrage phase)
Phase 3: Exit (3 mins)
- Collect loot (10K Yen + drops)
- Reset for next run
Group Clear (8 mins):
- 40% faster with competent group
- Coordinate burst damage
- Share Yen split (still 10K each)
Daily Run Limits
Bat Devil has 3 FREE runs per day:
- Run #1: 10K Yen
- Run #2: 10K Yen
- Run #3: 10K Yen
- Run #4+: Requires 5K Yen entry fee (not worth it)
Math: After 3 runs, you're paying to play. Stop at 3.
Common Mistakes
❌ Running raids beyond 3 free runs: You're spending Yen to earn Yen ❌ Choosing harder raids for "better drops": Time efficiency matters more ❌ Solo when undergeared: Join groups if clear time >20 mins
✅ Do this instead: 3 Bat runs, use saved time for PvP Yen
Income Source #3: PvP Wins
Income: 25K Yen (5 wins × 5K each) Time: 30 minutes (assuming 60% win rate) Priority: MEDIUM (can be skipped if time-limited)
Why PvP for Yen?
Benefits:
- Good Yen/hour (50K/hour if you win fast)
- Improves PvP skills
- Counts towards rank climb
- No entry fees
Drawbacks:
- Win-dependent (lose = no Yen)
- Tilt risk (affects other activities)
- Skill-gated (new players struggle)
Win Rate Optimization
If your win rate is:
- 70%+: PvP is your best Yen source (prioritize this)
- 50-70%: PvP is decent (do after raids)
- 30-50%: PvP is break-even (skip if you don't enjoy)
- <30%: Focus on PvE until you improve
Reality check: Most players have 50% win rate by definition (matchmaking).
Fast Win Strategies
Goal: 6-8 minute matches
#1: Use Meta Contracts
- Future Devil or Ghost Devil
- Win faster with better tools
#2: Aggressive Playstyle
- End fights quickly (win or lose fast)
- Don't play for draw
#3: Target Weaker Opponents
- If you notice an opponent struggle, capitalize
- Not BM, just efficient
#4: Surrender Lost Matches
- If you're down 70% HP at 2 mins, surrender
- Save 4 mins, queue next match
- 5 fast losses < 1 slow win in time spent
The Mental Game
Tilt Management:
After 2 losses in a row:
- Take 5-minute break
- Do 1 Bat raid clear (refresh mindset)
- Return to PvP with clear head
Why this works:
- Tilt loses more games
- Break prevents tilt spiral
- Raid clear = guaranteed Yen + confidence boost
Mindset: You need 5 wins, not a winstreak. Losses are fine.
Income Source #4: Code Redemption (One-Time)
Income: 275K Yen (one-time bonus) Time: 5 minutes Priority: CRITICAL (do immediately)
Current Active Codes (January 2026)
Visit Quick Start Guide for always-updated code list.
Why codes matter:
- Equivalent to 18 days of daily routine
- Enough for 1-2 S-tier contracts
- Time-limited (expire in 3-7 days)
If you already redeemed codes:
- Check back monthly for new codes
- Game updates often include new codes
- Join Discord #codes channel for instant notifications
Advanced Yen Maximization
Contract Flip Trading (Expert - Not Recommended for Beginners)
Strategy:
- Buy low-tier contracts from Dealer when discounted
- Resell to Black Market for 30% profit
Why this is risky:
- Requires 50K+ Yen capital
- Market prices fluctuate
- Can lose money on bad timing
Only attempt if:
- You have 200K+ Yen buffer
- You understand market cycles
- You're willing to lose 10K learning
Most players should skip this. The effort-to-reward ratio isn't worth it.
Time-Gated Content Priority
When you have limited time, prioritize in this order:
- Daily Missions (15K, 30 mins) ← NEVER SKIP
- Bat Raid x3 (30K, 45 mins) ← High value
- PvP Wins x5 (25K, 30 mins) ← If you enjoy/good at PvP
- Story Progression (variable) ← Only after dailies
- Exploration (0 Yen) ← Lowest priority for Yen farming
Logic: Time-gated = highest priority. Can't make it up later.
Weekly Yen Goals
Week 1 (with Codes)
Target: 350K Yen
- Codes: 275K
- Daily Routine x7: 70K × 7 = 490K
- Total: 765K
Spending Plan:
- S-tier Contract #1: 150K
- S-tier Contract #2: 150K
- Emergency Fund: 200K
- Upgrades: 265K
Week 2+ (without Codes)
Target: 490K Yen per week
- Daily Routine x7: 70K × 7 = 490K
Weekly Budget:
- Raid Entry Fees: 0 (using free runs)
- Upgrades: 50K
- Savings: 440K
At this rate:
- 1 S-tier contract every 4 days
- 2 S-tier contracts every 8 days
Common Yen Mistakes
Mistake #1: Gambling at Contract Dealer
What players think:
- "I'll get lucky this time"
- "Just one more spin"
- "The S-tier is coming"
What actually happens:
- Average cost: 33K for S-tier
- 25% spend 50K+ before success
- Some spend 100K+ (worst case)
Math doesn't lie:
- Contract Dealer expected value: -3K Yen per spin
- You're paying 3K for a 27% chance
- Over time, you ALWAYS lose
Never gamble. Ever. Save for guaranteed Black Market.
Mistake #2: Buying Low-Tier Contracts
What players do:
- Buy B-tier contracts (50K each)
- "Need contracts for my build"
- End up with 3 B-tiers and no S-tier
Why this is wrong:
- B-tier contracts are weak endgame
- 50K × 3 = 150K (that's 1 S-tier)
- You're delaying your power spike
Correct priority:
- Get 1 S-tier first
- Then consider B-tiers for synergy
- Never buy C-tier (use Fox Devil instead)
Mistake #3: Ignoring Group Raids
What players do:
- Solo raid: 15 mins per clear
- 3 raids = 45 mins total
- Burn out from repetition
What they should do:
- Group raid: 8 mins per clear
- 3 raids = 24 mins total
- Save 21 mins for other activities
How to find groups:
- Type "/lfg raid" in global chat
- Join Discord raid channels
- Add active players as friends
Objection: "I don't want to socialize"
Answer: You don't have to. Group raids require zero conversation. Just join, do damage, leave.
Long-Term Yen Planning
30-Day Projection
Daily Income: 70K Yen Monthly Total: 70K × 30 = 2,100K Yen
Monthly Budget (Example):
| Expense | Cost | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| S-tier Contracts (2-3) | 450K | Critical |
| Upgrades | 300K | High |
| Raid Supplies | 150K | Medium |
| Emergency Fund | 500K | High |
| Experimentation | 200K | Low |
| Savings | 500K | Medium |
Total: 2,100K (balanced budget)
Yen Milestones
Day 1: 70K (first daily routine) Day 3: 210K (can afford second S-tier with codes) Week 1: 490K (solid build foundation) Day 10: 700K (comfortable buffer) Week 2: 980K (approaching 1M) Day 20: 1,400K (can afford emergencies) Day 30: 2,100K (endgame viable)
At Day 30 with optimal farming, you can:
- Own 3-4 S-tier contracts
- Max 1-2 contracts fully
- Have 500K emergency fund
- Never worry about Yen again
FAQ
"What if I can only play 1 hour per day?"
Priority routine (1 hour):
- Daily Missions (30 mins) → 15K
- Bat Raid x2 (30 mins) → 20K Total: 35K Yen/day
30-day projection: 1,050K Yen
Verdict: Still viable. Takes twice as long, but works.
"Is it worth paying for faster Yen?"
NO. Game is designed around F2P earning rates.
Paying for Yen:
- Costs real money
- Ruins sense of progression
- Creates unhealthy spending habits
- Still have skill gap to overcome
Better investment: Spend $0, invest time learning mechanics.
"I fell behind everyone else. Can I catch up?"
YES. Yen advantage is temporary.
Skill advantage is permanent:
- Rich player with poor mechanics loses to skilled F2P
- Yen buys tools, not skill
- PvP is ultimately skill-based
Catching up timeline:
- Week 1: You'll be behind
- Week 2: Gap narrows
- Week 3: Nearly equal (1 S-tier vs their 2-3)
- Week 4: Equal footing (your skill might surpass theirs)
Remember: Whales quit. Skilled players stay.
Summary: Your Daily Checklist
Every day, do this in order:
- ☐ Log in (check new codes if Monday)
- ☐ Check daily mission board
- ☐ Complete quick missions (10 mins)
- ☐ Run Bat Raid x3 (45 mins)
- ☐ Complete remaining daily missions (15 mins)
- ☐ PvP for 5 wins (30 mins) OR skip if tired
- ☐ Track total Yen earned (aim for 70K+)
- ☐ Plan tomorrow's goals
Total time: 1.5-2 hours depending on PvP
Consistency beats intensity. Doing this 80% of days beats going hard for 3 days then quitting.
