How to Farm EXP and Level Up Shadows Fast in Arise Crossover
To level up your Shadows in Arise Crossover fast, let it fight mobs that have HP equal to around x10 the damage of the Shadow. In essence, you want to let your Shadow fight for at least 10-15 seconds with a mob. When the Shadow starts killing mobs in just a few hits, move on to the next mob or the next island. By doing this, you will constantly keep levelin🔥g up your S𒐪hadow by ~10 levels or more.
If you own the X2 EXP battlepass, you can shorten the leveling-up process by a lot. However, ev🐷en without it, you can level up a Shadow quickly. So, you are better off spending Tickets/Robux on other battlepasses.

Why are My Shadows Not Earning EXP and Leveling Up in Arise Crossover?
If you are defeating mobs but your Shadows are not leveling up in Arise Crossover, that means they are not dealing enough damage to get the EXP. A Shadow can earn EXP only if it deals damage equal to around 5% of the enemy’s maximum HP.
Preferably, you want to level up multiple Shadows of equal strength at the same time. If you are leveling up a Shadow that is weaker than the rest of your party, unequip the other Shadows. Also, disable the auto-click option so that you don’t deal damage with your weapon.
That does it for our guide on how to level up Shadows fast in Arise Crossover. If you want to know how to enhance them to the SS rank, check out our guide to upgrading Shadows in Arise Crossover.
