The Cantina is home to a large number of characters and a few ships, that are vital to various events in the game. However, Cantina Battles have no limits on the number of times they can be attacked or simmed. As such, it's best to focus on a single character or ship there until completion. Jumping around will divert your focus too much, and slow progress considerably. So stick to one node at a time!

Note that Relic Salvage is only available from Cantina Battles. If you should reach a point where your guild recommends focusing on relic farming ahead of any character or ship shards, follow their direction. Otherwise, there will be a few points where I'll recommend stopping to focus on getting relic salvage before moving forward with shards.

I should also emphasize that I feel Cantina energy refreshes are the most beneficial use of crystals, for a considerable time into playing the game. I will note later in this chart where it's best to change that plan, and focus your crystal use elsewhere.
