Elite Training: All Courses and the Somniwing

What Elite Training is and how to unlock it

Elite Training is a standing objective board run by the Polaris Institute. It opens once you hold the Student I title, which arrives with the freshman guidance lesson in the main story, and Dr. Lewis talks you through it the first time. Until then the entry is locked behind a single line: Become Student I to unlock.

The board is split into Core Courses, which are mandatory and gate your title promotions, and four optional elective paths you can dip into in any order. Every course you finish pays Elite Training Points into one shared counter, and that counter runs to 180.

The 15 Tutorial Courses are a separate list with their own one-time rewards and no Elite Training Points. Their steps and rewards are in the Tutorial Courses guide.

Elite Training at a glance
Check	Value
Unlock	The Student I title, granted during the main story
Open it with	F3 on keyboard, or hold the gamepad menu wheel
Chapters	7, each opened by the title above it
Core Courses	49 total, 7 per chapter: 5 required and 2 challenge
Elective courses	123 entries across 4 paths
Currency	Elite Training Points, 1 to 3 per course
Milestones	10, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 points
Final reward	Somniwing, claimed from the Institute
Resets	None. Every course pays once and stays claimed

This is the board to open when leveling stops: Your Pathfinder Level cap is set by your title, and a title promotion needs Core Courses. More combat cannot replace them. The Pathfinder leveling guide covers the rest of the EXP routing once the cap is lifted.

The pressure runs the other way too. Two main story chapters will not move until an Elite Training chapter is behind them: Flowers and Butterfly Shadows and Rainbow of the Ground both check a title as well as a level. The main story walkthrough lists every gate in order.

Every Elite Training Points milestone

Points are cumulative and never spent. The counter passes seven marks on its way to 180, and each one pays a fixed item the moment you cross it. The first two land inside the opening chapter, which holds 49 points on its own.

10 points
Custom Egg Box - DPS x1, an egg box that lets you pick the damage role you want out of it.
30 points
Aniipod Ultra x2, the high-rate pod worth saving for an Alpha rather than spending on a field catch.
60 points
Sparkling Egg x1, guaranteed to hatch an Aniimo carrying the Sparkling mutation.
90 points
Advanced Held Item Pack x1, a direct upgrade for whichever carry you are funding.
120 points
Sparkling Cube x1, the upgraded pod built from Sparkling Crystal and normally a crafting project.
150 points
Capafruit x1, which grants +1 Innate Potential to each of an Aniimo’s six attributes. One per Aniimo, ever.
180 points
Somniwing, the Grass and Wind support the Institute holds back for the end of the plan.

Milestone

The seven Elite Training Points milestones and what each one pays

The Elite Training rail reading 129 of 180 points with reward nodes at 10, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 — The rail sits under the course list and tracks one running total across every chapter and every path.

All seven chapters together hold 313 points, so 180 is 58 percent of everything on the board. That margin is the whole reason the route below matters: you can skip the grindiest third of the electives and still finish.

What Elite Training pays in currency if you clear the whole board
Payout	Core Courses	Elective courses	Total
Glimmer	1,470	None	1,470
Safaris	36,400	18,300	54,700
Credits	None	1,098,000	1,098,000

Every Core Course pays a flat 30 Glimmer, and the 49 of them are the only part of Elite Training that pays premium currency at all. Every elective tier pays 100 Safaris and 6,000 Credits instead. Courses also hand over an item each, listed in the tables below.

Core Courses, chapter by chapter

Each chapter carries exactly 7 Core Courses. Six pay 2 points and one pays 3, and the 3-point course is always the Bronze Collection Badge for that chapter’s new region, so the chapter is built around going somewhere and filling its Aniilog research entries. Chapter 1 is the exception: all seven of its courses pay 2.

Required courses unlock the assessment: Of the 7 Core Courses in a chapter, 5 are the required set and 2 are challenge courses. The assessment behind a chapter asks for 4 of those 5, in every chapter including Chapter 7. A promotion never waits on the full board. Finish the rest for the points and the Glimmer, but do not let them hold up a promotion.

How Core Courses raise your level cap

Your Pathfinder Level cap is set by your character title, and the only way to change a title is the Title Promotion Assessment. That assessment stays locked until the chapter’s Core Course requirement is submitted, which is why Elite Training sits upstream of every other progression system. The assessment itself pairs a practical exam with a theory assessment run by the Institute.

The promotion ladder, chapter by chapter
Chapter to clear	While holding	Pathfinder Level needed	Promotes to	New cap
Chapter 1	Student I	25	Student II	35
Chapter 2	Student II	35	Student III	40
Chapter 3	Student III	40	Wayfarer I	45
Chapter 4	Wayfarer I	45	Wayfarer II	50
Chapter 5	Wayfarer II	50	Wayfarer III	55
Chapter 6	Wayfarer III	55	Trailblazer I	60
Chapter 7	Trailblazer I	60	Nothing: the ladder ends at Trailblazer I	60

Two consequences fall out of that table. Each promotion also lifts the training level cap on your Aniimo, so a party that has stopped gaining levels is usually waiting on your title rather than on materials; the progression guide covers what to spend on once the ceiling moves. And Chapter 7 promotes nothing, so Trailblazer I and Pathfinder Level 60 are where this build ends. Chapter 7 still opens two assessments at Pathfinder Level 60, Starlight’s Witness and Starlight’s Glory, and they pay Trailblazer badges rather than a title.

Every one of those assessments is a duel against a named Institute senior, and the Veinwalker Assessment walkthrough carries all eight with their decks and their theory answers. The last one, Polaris’ Commendation, is not a promotion at all: it is the closing quest held behind 180 Elite Training badges.

A chapter opens on the title, not on the story: Chapter 2 needs the Student II title, Chapter 3 needs Student III, and so on up to Chapter 7 at Trailblazer I. Running ahead in the main story does not open the next chapter, and neither does clearing every elective in the current one.

Chapter 7 prints three and wants four: The Chapter 7 objective line reads Complete 3 required quests in Chapter 7 while the chapter itself is configured for the same four as every other. Clear four and the gate opens whichever number the line shows.

The four elective paths

Electives are optional, unordered and worth 209 of the 313 points on the board. Each path collects the courses for one way of playing, so the fastest path for you is whichever one matches what you were going to do anyway. Every elective tier pays 100 Safaris, 6,000 Credits and an item.

58pointsPath of TwiningCollecting and raising: Collection Badges, Sparkling and Umbral catches, Elite and Perfect ratings, hatching, Resonance and Aniimo levels. The biggest single path.

41pointsPath of DiscoveryOpen-world work: chests, Blooms, Branch infusions, Nurture, Sanctum clears, Journey quests and Alpha or Omega firsts. It stops at Chapter 6.

57pointsPath of VictoryFighting: elemental-advantage kills, Pathfinder Challenges, the senior duels, Holo-Battle Sim and Interlink, and Operation: Egg Heist ranks.

53pointsPath of SplendorLiving in Idyll: friends and Companion Mode, outfits and accessories, photos, the Homeland and its orders, and the RV level ladder.

What each path is about and what it is worth

A course with several tiers pays at every tier: Where a table shows an objective such as 3 / 10 / 20, the course pays one point and its item at each of those thresholds. The Points column is the full value of the course once every tier is done.

The fastest route to 180 points

Chapters 1 to 3 hold 143 points between them, so 180 is mathematically out of reach until Chapter 4 opens at the Wayfarer I title. That sets the real target: reach Wayfarer I, then take the cheapest points available rather than the ones nearest the top of the list.

Points available as each chapter opens
Through chapter	Core	Electives	Chapter total	Running total
Chapter 1	14	35	49	49
Chapter 2	15	35	50	99
Chapter 3	15	29	44	143
Chapter 4	15	33	48	191
Chapter 5	15	28	43	234
Chapter 6	15	28	43	277
Chapter 7	15	21	36	313

1Clear every Core Course in every open chapter
They are worth 104 points, they are the densest on the board at 2 or 3 each, they pay 30 Glimmer apiece, and every chapter asks for four required courses before its assessment opens. Nothing else on the board beats that rate.
2Take the five one-action Splendor courses in Chapter 1
Change your outfit, equip one Aniimo accessory, snap 3 photos, add 1 friend and use your Flute once. Five points for about five minutes, and nothing in them needs a party or a build.
3Sweep the Discovery courses you complete by playing
Chests, Blooms, Branch infusions, egg pickups and Sanctum clears all tick while you are doing something else. Chapters 1 to 4 alone hold 31 Discovery points and almost none of it is a detour.
4Run the Victory kill counts with correct elements
Chapter 1 pays 9 points for defeating Aniimo, most of it for doing it with an elemental advantage. Check the type chart before a field trip and both counters fill at once.
5Finish the Twining tiers your collection already met
Elite and Perfect ratings, Sparkling and Umbral catches and Aniilog levels are usually part-done before you look. Open the path and claim what is already lit.
6Only then start the long counters
The RV ladder is worth 16 points on its own, and 100 Homeland orders, 50 Pathfinder Challenges, Gold Collection Badges in 12 areas and the Egg Heist rank ladder sit beside it. These are the slowest points on the board. Start them once you can count how many you still need.

The order that costs the least play time

Claim before you count: Points are not awarded until a finished course is claimed on the board. Open Elite Training whenever you clear a chapter or a title, because the rail will usually be holding points you have already earned. The daily routine puts this claim sweep first for the same reason.

Somniwing, the 180-point reward

Somniwing is a Grass and Wind support with an REGEN profile, and it is the one Aniimo on the board you cannot catch anywhere else. Its value is resource economy rather than damage: it exists to keep a carry casting.

Energy FullThe trait adds 10 maximum EP to the party pool, which is the difference between one more cast and none in a long fight.

Ethereal Light WaveGrants 15 percent EP recovery for 20 seconds to teammates along its path, so a charge-hungry carry stops running dry mid-rotation.

Hypnotic SporesApplies Hypnosis on hit: the target takes 25 percent more damage and cannot act for 5 seconds, until it is hit. Grass Aniimo are immune.

Energy OrbA charged drop onto the target, the damage half of the kit for when the support job is already handled.

What Somniwing brings to a party

Somniwing portrait showing its green hair, white fur collar and blue and green moth wings — Somniwing arrives as a free companion, so the points you spend getting there are the only cost it ever has.

Because it is free and it never competes for a damage slot, Somniwing is one of the safest long-term investments a new account can make. The Somniwing build page covers its stat priorities, Held Items and party pairings, and the Somniwing Aniilog entry has the full skill list and stat spread.

Frequently asked

How do you unlock Elite Training in Aniimo?

It opens with the Student I title, which the main story grants after the freshman guidance lesson and the Alpha Turbo fight in Nimbus Fields. Dr. Lewis then introduces the board. Until you hold Student I the entry reads "Become Student I to unlock". Open it with F3 once it is live.

How many points do you need for the free Somniwing?

180 Elite Training Points, out of 313 available across all seven chapters. Chapters 1 to 3 only hold 143 between them, so the earliest Somniwing can arrive is inside Chapter 4, after the Wayfarer I promotion.

Why is my Pathfinder Level stuck?

Your title sets the cap: 25 at Student I, then 35, 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60. Raising it means passing the Title Promotion Assessment, and that assessment stays locked until 4 of the chapter’s 5 required Core Courses are done. See how to make an Aniimo stronger for what the extra levels unlock.

Do Elite Training courses reset daily or weekly?

No. Every course pays once, the points are cumulative and nothing on the board refreshes. A course you left half-finished keeps its progress, and a chapter you skipped past stays claimable.

Which elective path is worth doing first?

Path of Twining carries the most points at 58, but Path of Splendor has the cheapest opening: five Chapter 1 courses that each need one action. Do those five first, then follow whichever path matches how you already play.
