Animal Final Quest Lightning Emperor & Divine General Guide (March 2026)

If you’re grinding the current meta in Anime Final Quest, you already know that stock abilities just won’t cut it in the late game. You need power—specifically, the Lightning Emperor and Divine General abilities. These two specs are absolute game-changers that can transform your gameplay from struggling to dominating.

Having spent countless hours testing different methods and strategies in AFQ, I’ll walk you through exactly how to unlock both abilities—whether you’re a “wallet warrior” buying bundles or a F2P grinder looking for the most efficient farming route. This guide covers everything from basic requirements to advanced pro tips that most players miss.

How to Get Lightning Emperor?

The Lightning Emperor is widely considered top-tier for single-target DPS. Its “Awakening Mode” buffs your basic M1 attacks to insane levels, making it the go-to choice for farming high-HP bosses and clearing challenging content.

Method 1: The Free-to-Play Route (Space Portal Method)

This is the most reliable method for F2P players, though it requires some dedication and patience.

Step 1: Farm the Space Portal

• Head to the Curse Realms School Domain map
• Select Normal Mode (don’t waste time on Hard mode)
• Important: The Space Portal has a 6% drop rate regardless of difficulty
• Pro Tip: Normal mode is faster to clear, meaning more runs per hour

Step 2: Navigate the Domain Efficiently Once you get the Space Portal (don’t worry, it has infinite uses once obtained), use it to enter the domain:

1. Walk straight ahead until you see an open door
2. Take a sharp Right
3. Locate and speak to the Quest NPC

⚠️ Critical Requirement: You must be at least Level 30 to claim the Lightning Emperor rewards. If you’re under-leveled, grind XP first, or the quest won’t trigger.

Method 2: The Premium Shortcut

If you want to skip the grind entirely, you can purchase the Exclusive Bundle from the in-game shop. This gives you instant access to the Lightning Emperor ability and exclusive cosmetics. While this costs real money, it saves you hours of farming and lets you focus on other aspects of the game.

Pro Tips for Lightning Emperor Farming

Based on my experience running hundreds of Curse Realms runs:

1. Speed Over Difficulty: Always choose Normal mode for farming. A 6% drop rate on Normal is better than 6% on Hard because you can clear Normal 2x faster.
2. Team Composition: Bring friends who can clear quickly. More runs per hour = higher chance for the portal drop.
3. Portal Usage: Don’t be afraid to use your Space Portal. It’s not a consumable item. Once it drops, you keep it forever and can help friends navigate to the quest NPC.
4. Level Management: Hit Level 30 before you even start farming seriously. Nothing’s worse than getting the portal then realizing you can’t claim the reward.

How to Get Divine General?

While Lightning Emperor excels at boss killing, the Divine General is the king of crowd control. This ability focuses on Summoning, allowing you to call forth entities to do your dirty work. It offers massive burst damage and clears crowded rooms instantly.

The Complete Unlock Process

Unlike Lightning Emperor’s RNG-based method, Divine General relies purely on a specific questline given by an NPC.

Step 1: Find Nixova

• Search the main hub/map for an NPC named Nixova
• She’s usually located near the central plaza area
• Interact with her to activate the Divine General Quest

Step 2: Complete the Task List Nixova will give you a list of objectives, typically including:

• Killing specific mobs (usually 20-50 enemies)
• Collecting materials (often Essence Shards or similar items)
• Completing a mini-dungeon or challenge area

Step 3: Return and Claim Once you’ve completed all objectives:

• Return to Nixova
• Turn in the quest
• Receive your Divine General ability

⚠️ Level Requirement: You must be at least Level 20 to start this quest. Unlike Lightning Emperor, you can begin the Divine General questline as soon as you hit level 20.

Divine General Quest Tips

1. Preparation First: Before starting Nixova’s quest, stock up on healing items and ensure your gear is adequate for your level.
2. Mob Selection: Some mob types are easier to kill than others. Focus on areas with weaker enemies if you’re struggling.
3. Material Farming: If the quest requires specific materials, farm them in batches rather than one at a time to save time.
4. Quest Reset: If you fail a quest objective, don’t worry. Most objectives can be retried without penalty.

Advanced Strategies and Meta Considerations

Which Should You Get First?

This depends entirely on your playstyle and current goals:

Get Lightning Emperor First If:

• You’re struggling with boss fights
• You prefer melee combat
• You want to solo high-level content
• You have patience for RNG farming

Get Divine General First If:

• You need to clear mob quests quickly
• You prefer summoner/caster playstyle
• You want guaranteed results (no RNG)
• You’re Level 20 but not yet Level 30

Synergy Between Both Abilities

Once you have both abilities, you can create devastating combinations:

• Use Divine General for mob clearing
• Switch to Lightning Emperor for boss phases
• This versatility makes you valuable in team content

Gear and Trait Optimization

For maximum effectiveness with these abilities:

Lightning Emperor Build:

• Superior Trait (best in slot): -35% Skill Cooldown, +20% Skill Damage, +20% M1 Damage, +15% Critical Chance
• Time Stop Gear for team play
• Focus on M1 damage and critical chance

Divine General Build:

• Summon Damage Traits if available
• Area Effect Gear for maximum mob coverage
• Focus on cooldown reduction and burst damage

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Based on helping dozens of players unlock these abilities, here are the most common mistakes:

1. Ignoring Level Requirements: Don’t farm Space Portal before Level 30, or start Divine General quest before Level 20.
2. Wrong Difficulty: Always farm Space Portal on Normal mode, not Hard or Nightmare.
3. Portal Hoarding: Don’t save your Space Portal “for later”—use it immediately once you’re Level 30.
4. Incomplete Quest Prep: Make sure you have adequate gear and supplies before starting Nixova’s questline.
5. Solo vs Team: Some players try to solo difficult content when teaming up would be much faster.

Troubleshooting and FAQ

Why Can’t I Find the Quest NPC?

If you can’t find the Lightning Emperor quest NPC:

• Double-check you’re Level 30
• Make sure you’re using the Space Portal correctly
• Try restarting the game instance
• Check if you’re in the correct domain area

Divine General Quest Not Working?

If Nixova won’t give you the quest:

• Verify you’re Level 20
• Check if you’ve already completed it
• Make sure you’re talking to the right NPC (Nixova, not another similar-looking NPC)
• Try rejoining the server

Space Portal Not Dropping?

RNG can be frustrating, but remember:

• 6% drop rate means average 1 in 17 runs
• Some players get it immediately, others take 50+ runs
• The drop is guaranteed eventually due to pity system
• Consider teaming up to increase runs per hour

Is It Worth Buying the Bundle?

If you’re considering the paid bundle:

• Calculate your time vs money value
• Consider how much you play the game
• Remember the bundle includes exclusive cosmetics
• F2P method is completely viable if you’re patient
