To find higher Tera raids, such as 6-star and 7-star raids, you must first complete the post-game Academy Ace Tournament at Naranja Academy and then host and complete a series of 5-star Tera Raids, after which Jacq will notify you about the appearance of 6-star Raids. The location of these higher-tier Tera Raids can be found on your map, with 6-star raids having a distinct border color icon, and new Tera Raids, including 7-star raids, becoming available daily at midnight local time.
