Notes:
- Farm all boss battles during half stamina events is the most efficient source of chalices and materials. This is why you should build your auto farm team as fast as possible.
- All chalices have same drop rate on all bosses (Normal gives: 1-3 stars, Hard: 2-4, Extreme 3-5)
- Level 6 chalices don’t drop from boss battle. You need to upgrade lvl 5 ones or buy them from lvl 9 Guild Shop (300 coins).
- The last 3 materials in each chapter are harder to farm (not found on boss stages). Buy them in guild shop lvl 2 (16 coins).
- There are 5 materials which can only be found in a single stage. The hardest one to farm is
Double-edged Sword Fragment because you can only find it at Southern Part of Town [Chapter 6]
- To auto farm overnight, defeat the Death Match Demon of the stage you want to farm then set it runs for 99 times with Stamina Potions ready.
- If you have too many Stamina Potions, it’s strongly recommended to clear all 6 bosses and log in every 4 hours to change the farming stage. You will have enough for all of your favorite characters.
What is Awakening in SDS:GC?
You can acquire additional effects along with increasing the stats of the hero by awakening.
For awakening, the materials and Gold are required. As you awaken, you require more materials and Gold.
Each Hero Attribute requires different Awakening Materials. Higher Hero Rarity costs more materials when awakening.
- Select Awakening Step: You can awaken up to 6 times and each step requires different materials and Gold
- Rising Stats: These are stats rising after awakening.
- Required Materials: These are the required materials to awaken. Each step requires different materials.
- Required Gold: This is required Gold to awaken. Each step requires a different amount of Gold.
- Change Hero: You can change the hero you want to awaken.
[TIP] If awakening materials are insufficient, you can acquire them from the stages in each chapter.
Don’t use Gold to Purchase Awakening Materials
A lot of players think that the best ways to awaken Heroes to 6⭐️ is to purchase chalices from shops at discounted prices. They also spend tons of Action Points during a Stamina Event for farming Gold. (I was able to farm 6,000,000 Gold during the last Stamina Event).
However, is that the most efficient way to farm Awakenings in The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross?
Doing that can actually hurt your progression a lot.
In The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross, Gold is very precious. You seem to have a lot of Gold right at the beginning, but soon you will have to do every activity in the game to gather a little more Gold for your upgrades, especially when you are trying to upgrade your gears.
Gear/equipment is the most important part while building your Heroes.
There are much better places for you to farm Awakening Materials and Chalices. You don’t have to spend tons of Gold on awakening your Heroes to get 1,000 more CC. It’s much better to spend those Gold on upgrading Gears, where most of your CC comes from.
Even if you are free-to-play players, you can easily reach 120,000 CC with ease just by following the tips in this guide.
First, remember, do not spend your Gold on buying materials. This will make your progression a nightmare.
Not to mention that you can also get Awakening Stones for your equipment while farming Chalices. It’s very easy to get several SSR Awakening Stones every day by salvation gears got from Extreme Boss Battles.

I got this whole team just by farming in Boss Battles for just a few days!
Best Places to Farm Awakening Materials
Don’t farm only Boss Battles for Awakening Materials.
The Free Stages have much better common drop rate and take much less time to complete, and take much less Stamina.
You also have a chance of getting SSR Gears from here at the same time, which can be very useful for salvaging.
During the Half Stamina Event, farming at Free Stages for 99 Awakening Materials costs you a decent amount of Stamina Potions.
The higher level your account is, the less potion you need to spend to achieve the same results.
At level 60, 10 Stamina Potions are able to give you 158 battles in Hard Free Stages during the Half Stamina Event.

Let’s see what I got from 10 Stamina Potions
Farming Chalices (Water of Life) from Boss Battles

Chalices (Water of Life)
This one will give you tons of values for your buck!
Chalices drop like crazy here and SSR Runes also are abundant.
But, you are farming not only Chalices here but also loads of SR and SSR Gears, which will be super helpful at salvaging for Awakening Stones.
I usually can get up to 7-10 SSR Awakening Stones just by farming here.
Even if you are only able to clear Chapter 1’s Boss Battle [Extreme], it’s still totally worth it. The only different thing from other Chapters are Rune Type and Awakening Materials.
If you have Stamina Potions, you will have no issue farming for some long seasons. You can easily obtain Stamina Potions form Town Quests, using Silver Coins, Friendship Coins, pulling from Banners etc.
Once you’ve reached level 60, you can get 790 Stamina in total for 10 Potions.
Especially once you reach Level 60 and can get 790 Stamina per 10 Potions.

Another excellent results from auto-farming with 10 Stamina Potions
The 70% drop chance for materials relates to the chest not the item does it not?
As in 70% chance for a bronze chest and then a 1 in 6 chance of getting the material (assuming the box has 6 different options)
Still a great guide though, just think the odds are off 🙂
Thank you for the feedback! I will do my best to recheck everything and update the article accordingly!
I always have problems while doing my auto repeats but it stops halfway cause of my inventory space being full and i sometimes have to spend gems to unlock more space. Is there another way to increase storage space without spending gems?
It’s the only way to expand the Inventory. However, trust me, it’s totally worth it!
aww damn! alright thanks!
It is more efficient to farm on lower difficulties stages than on harder ones because its lower the time for the farm, and it also lowers the stamina consumption, and also gives more chances to drop more, than farming on high difficulties
According to many tests, farming in Hard is still better!
Ok Thanks!
hello, right now im on chapter 7, i just beat galand, and the enemies’ CC are all 100k above, while my team’s CC is around 86k, should i focus on limit breaking my team or awakening them, or any tips for me? thankss
How did you use 0 stamina potions to get 71 rounds
Using a team which took the same time to defeat than recovering the endu spent.
To do so reduce speed of the game, don”t use the x2 option.
Another possibility is that he was grinding in levels so it gave it backs endu.
There is an error on the 2 stars awake, you did put 2 times the same image (Insect’s Poison Stinger) but one should be Sharp Spike !
Awesome work thanks.
Fixing it now. Thank you so much!
I cannot get ominous spell casting fluid to reliably drop in Hark’s residence (Ch.4). I just farmed for 60 turns and I got 2 of them compared to the other awakening item drop (Warrior’s Emblem) which I now have 60 of. Anyone else having this issue or am I just incredibly unlucky. I get that farming is the best way, but sure feels like a waste of time and stamina for such a low drop chance for this specific item.
Sometimes I feel like the game is really trolling us. I feel you bro! Try again later and you will be good. Sometimes the drop rate is ultra low and there is no way to explain this 🙁
For the last 3 materials of each chapter. Should I buy them from guild shop or farm them?
it’s better to farm them
It’s always best to farm them!
so if i go with this guide i dont need any demon blood, i dont think that is right
So sorry, I was using the same image of the Chalice for both. I might edit it now.
Thank you for your time and effort to make this useful post.
Glad that you have found it helpful man!
