How to unlock Ultimate Gley in The First Descendant

by · July 17, 2024

Here is a quick guide on how to unlock Ultimate Gley in The First Descendant. Our The First Descendant Gley Build also works with the Ultimate Gley version.

The Ultimate Gley version has slightly better stats and unique Modules that only the ultimate version can equip.

For more guides and builds for TFD, please check our First Descendant Guides database.

There are two ways to get Ultimate Gley:

Purchase via Ingame Store
Unlock via Research

Purchase Ultimate Gley in the Store

The first and by far the quickest way to unlock Ultimate Gley is to purchase her for real money in the in-game store. This is useful if you want to play the character right away and don’t mind paying for it, but it is quite expensive for what you get, so you may instead want to unlock the character in-game (more on that below). You can choose between two packages when purchasing Ultimate Gley this way. View all Character Caliber pricing.

Ultimate Gley Character
Dusk Stalker Head & Body Skins
+1 Descendant Slots

Premium Ultimate Gley Bundle (5,000 Caliper)

Ultimate Gley Character
Dusk Stalker Head & Body Skins
Planetary Projector Back Attachment
Gale Spawn
1 Energy Activator
2 Crystallization Catalysts
+1 Descendant Slots

Unlock Ultimate Gley with Research

The other way to unlock Ultimate Gley is by researching her. This requires a range of items to be looted and created beforehand, and they are quite time-consuming to obtain. But if you’re willing to put in the time and effort, it’s certainly feasible to unlock Ultimate Gley just by playing the game.

Researching Ultimate Gley requires the following four items:

Ultimate Gley Enhanced Cells
Ultimate Gley Stabilizer
Ultimate Gley Spiral Catalyst
Ultimate Gley Code

The first three items must be researched by collecting another four items for each. Visit Anais in Albion to perform research projects in The First Descendant. The research for each item takes 18 hours and costs 450,000 gold to complete. The fourth item does not need to be researched and can simply be looted.

Once you’ve got all the required items, you can do the final research for Ultimate Gley, which costs 900,000 gold and takes 36 hours to complete.

We will now go into more detail about obtaining all four items.
