Project Soul's Beginner Guide — Start Here
Editorial contact: Raymond
The first decisions in Project Soul's are about where the free resources go, not about a perfect build. This guide orders the opening: claim what your account can claim, get to Level 10, spend Gems on the limiting slot, and leave Trait Rerolls untouched until you have a baseline.
The first five things to do
- Enter the experience and confirm the Welcome badge — that is your first checkpoint.
- Open the code box at the bottom of the screen and redeem every entry your account passes.
- Fight monsters until Level 10, collecting Souls on the way.
- Spend Gems on the gear slot that is actually limiting your clears.
- Bank the Trait Rerolls until one encounter has a recorded clear time.
What to spend, in order
| Need | Spend | Why this comes first |
|---|---|---|
| Fights take too long | Gems on a weapon | Damage shortens every encounter and every future farm. |
| You die before the boss phase | Gems on armour | Survival buys attempts; damage buys speed. Pick the one that ends the run. |
| The ability set is wrong | Time spent on Souls | Souls are the source of abilities; a trait cannot fix a missing tool. |
| The build works but rolls badly | Trait Rerolls | Reroll last, when everything else is stable enough to measure. |
Gems: buy the bottleneck
Gems are the documented currency for weapons, armour and shop upgrades. The beginner mistake is buying the most impressive item instead of the one that fixes the current failure. Ask what ends the run — time or deaths — and buy for that.
Codes are the fastest source of extra Gems at the start. The dated list shows exactly which entries need a level or Reset.
Trait Rerolls: bank first
Trait Rerolls reshuffle the build. They are the most tempting reward in every code and the easiest to waste, because the pool is unknown. A single reroll gives you a new state, not a better one.
Hold them until you can compare before and after on the same fight. The traits guide has the test.
Souls, traits and gear are three different jobs
- Souls decide which abilities you have. If a fight needs an answer you do not own, no amount of gear fixes it.
- Traits change how those abilities behave. They are the fine adjustment, not the base.
- Gear raises the floor — damage and survivability — and is bought with Gems.
When a run fails, identify which of the three is missing before spending anything. A trait reroll cannot replace a weapon upgrade, and a weapon upgrade cannot give you an ability you never collected.
Early mistakes worth avoiding
Rerolling before a baseline
You cannot tell whether the new trait helped, so the reroll teaches you nothing.
Buying the priciest gear
Price is not the same as fixing the run. Match the purchase to the failure.
Ignoring the level gates
SUB2NOCTYRA waits until Level 10; 250KVISITS until Level 50. Claim the open codes first.
Resetting for two codes
The Reset-gated rewards are not worth a reset whose cost you have not read.
What this guide cannot tell you
There is no published Soul roster, trait table or gear stat list for Project Soul's yet. This guide therefore avoids item names and exact numbers. When a source with real values appears, the advice here will be updated with it rather than with estimates.
The first hard gate is Level 10, which unlocks SUB2NOCTYRA. Treat it as the end of the tutorial, not the end of the build.
FAQ
What should I do first in Project Soul's?
Leave the opening area with two things settled: every code your account can already claim, and a clear idea of which stat is limiting you. Start fighting monsters for EXP and Souls, then spend Gems on the gear slot that fixes the actual problem rather than buying the most expensive item you can afford.
Should I spend Gems or save them early?
Spend enough to make the current fights repeatable, then stop. Gems are the documented currency for weapons and armour, so they are an investment in clear speed. Hoarding them while every fight is a struggle is not safer — it just slows the source of more Gems.
When should I use my first Trait Reroll?
After you can clear one encounter consistently and can write down its clear time. Rerolling before that replaces a known result with an unknown one and leaves you unable to tell whether the new trait helped. The traits guide gives the full test.
Do I need to reset early?
No. Reset 1 only unlocks two codes (RESET and 2KCCU). The rest of the active codes need nothing or a level. A reset is a build decision, not an opening step, and the public sources do not describe what it removes.
Which code can I claim immediately?
2 of the 7 active codes list no level, Reset or gamepass requirement. SUB2NOCTYRA opens at Level 10, 250KVISITS at Level 50, and the two Reset codes need a first reset. Check the codes page for the dated list.
