Things to do when stuck at a level in Solo Leveling Arise
There may be times in Solo Leveling Arise when your in-game level might be lower than the minimum required to engage in the story quest. While it may seem there's a simple solution to this—gain experience and level up your character—it's easier said than done.
Here are a few ways to earn Experience if you are stuck in the game:
1) Complete the story, including Hard Mode

You can earn a lot of Experience by clearing the various main and side chapters in the story mode of Solo Leveling Arise. It is one of the fastest ways to level up.
Furthermore, the game's Hard Mode, which unlocks after completing Chapter 7, rewards an even higher amount of Experience for replaying the chapters with a greater difficulty.
2) Run Gates

Gates are major gameplay elements of the title, and you can only challenge a certain number of them each day by using Gate Keys. Each Gate you enter will reward you with Experience alongside Reputation and Gold.
Note that the higher-tier Gates provide more Experience than the lower ones.
3) Collect Activity Fund
![Activity Fund (Image via Netmarble)](https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/05/a2042-17159475142187-1920.jpg 1920w)
Collecting Activity Funds is the easiest way to earn Experience, and it doesn't require you to do anything. The funds accumulate in real time, and every now and then, you must collect them to obtain various rewards including Experience.
By consistently collecting the Activity Funds, you can continuously gather Experience and level up, however, at a slower pace.

While this may seem obvious, it is critical to level up your party members in the game. Sung Jinwoo alone cannot complete all the challenges and you will have to rely on the teammates to efficiently clear content.
Furthermore, be mindful of the elements of your party members as it can offer you an advantage against certain enemies.
