Luckily the process of farming fodder is pretty simple. The water Magic Knight, Lapis, can clear Faimon Path (Hell) on auto mode without difficulty.
Just auto-battle with Lapis and 3 fodder monsters of your choice. Faimon can drop 2* Rainbowmon, 2* Fire Hellhound, 3* Fire Inugami, and 3* Fire Salamander.
There’s a couple of reasons why fodder is such a core part of Summoners War, but the simple fact is that if your monsters aren’t 6*, you’re at a huge disadvantage.
So as you go into this process, here are some things to keep in mind:
Complete the “Fast Leveling Strategy” part of the Summoner’s Way
There are technically better farmers than Lapis, but not by much
Farming fodder is time consuming and boring, but still important
If you don’t like being unable to use your phone while farming, consider using an emulator
You’ll probably want something else to watch or play while you farm in the background
Getting Lapis (And Her Runes)
Lapis is a freebie given from Summoners’ Way missions
As mentioned above, Lapis (Water Magic Knight) is given to new players for free, along with most of the materials needed to Awaken and 6* her.
Even if you got lucky and pulled a 5* monster before this point, Lapis should be your first 6*.
She’ll carry you through the story, is useful in Cairos, and can solo every important fodder farming stage. Plus, she’s free!
You can access Summoner’s Way missions by clicking on the circled icon on the left
I’ve already finished this part of Summoners’ Way, so I can’t show you the screenshots directly – but the game will walk you through step-by-step.

Once you’ve finished, your Lapis should be Awakened and 6*’d.
She should also be equipped with the Vampire and Revenge runes given to you by Summoner’s Way.
Lapis is able to auto Faimon Hell without problems
Even though she’s free, Lapis is able to drag 3 other monsters through Faimon without any problems.
How To Auto-Battle Faimon For Fodder
Now that you have Lapis built, tap on the Gateway.

Now click on the repeat battle option at the bottom.

From here, you can select a map to automatically clear up to 10 times.
You can only use repeat battle on stages you’ve cleared already
For farming fodder, tap on Scenario.
Story areas are listed on the left
Scroll down until you see Faimon Volcano on the left, and tap on it. It’ll look like this.
Faimon is the go-to stage for EXP
Tap on “battle” for the first stage, Path.
It’ll bring you to a screen that looks like this.
You can complete up to 10 battles automatically
Select three level one monsters. Make sure they’re not important – you’ll be feeding them off soon enough.
Tap on “5×10 Repeat Battle”, and your selected team will repeat the stage, up to 10 times.
You can see the number of battles completed in the top left of the window
Even if you don’t have 50 energy, you can complete battles until you run out of energy. Once your selected fodder monsters hit their max level, evolve them, and then repeat the process.
Keep the following in mind:
It takes three 3* to evolve a 3* to a 4*
It takes four 4* to evolve a 4* to a 5*
It takes five 5* to evolve a 5* to a 6*
As you can probably imagine, making a single 6* takes a long time. And eventually, you want all of your important monsters to be 6*.
So get used to Faimon’s background – you’ll be seeing it a lot.
