I say join the chatroom and talk to people. They're the ones who can give you really great advice but would also make great allies. If you want to really move up, start paying attention to your allies. Pay attention to how often they play and even times zones, this will help you out a lot. When you fight bosses, check out the Battle Logs. You'll start seeing familiar names.

You'll need a range of allies. Everyone plays a role.

Being new, get those free mobage coins from trying their other games. You can use those for the space bridges.

You will get seeded by anyone but it's random, even from allies. So yes, even if you're not scanning, people will still ask you for help.

You don't need to keep throwing out cubes to take down an ally's boss. Do what you feel will help. There's not much you can do right now but every little chips away at the bosses. You are not doing yourself any favors by constantly throwing out cube hits to every boss you see. You'll only run out of steam (reserve cubes) and won't be able to help out anyone after that.

The (???) bosses are great. You free cubes for reserve when they are beaten. They are pretty random and rare.

I would add in to learn how to snipe and learn how much damage you do to certain bosses because it varies.

If you're about to level up, make sure all your cubes are used up. That way when you level up, you get three cubes back.

Most of all, set goals for yourself. Everyone wants to be number 1 but will you have the financial aspect to make it. Making Tier 2 is possible as a free player but just as much work.
