Easy experience
Note: This takes a while and is very repetitive. This trick is done before you enter Dillmoor. It can be unlocked during the storyline, which is the third area opened. At the beginning of the game when the Ruins of Robelia Castle and Gaslin Caves are unlocked, or as Dillmoor is unlocked, there is a way to keep leveling up for a long period of time before moving on. You can do it in all three areas. When choosing to enter either Robelia Castle or Gaslin Caves, you will be grouped with Pagus or Blockter. Keep going back into that area and fight until you can make it through the area without leveling up once through the whole map, and use the appropriate fighting technique (Mystic Attacks in Robelia Castle or Combat Arts in Gaslin Caves). As you do this, your characters will learn more of those skills. If you wait until Dillmoor is opened, do not enter that area or you will not be able to perform this leveling trick. Instead, have your two parties run in and out of both Robelia Castle and Gaslin Caves until you do not level up at all running through both areas. Even if you are close to exiting the second area you selected and have one character level up, go through them both again. This is the easiest and most efficient way to level up early in the game, and it keeps your characters leveling up for a long time. Note: You cannot do the time warp. This also gives you the chance to get and sell a lot of your components and gather the rare ones, like the bracelet. Remember that Chimera components are difficult to find; do not sell them. This trick also gives you the chance to get the money together to afford two of every item in Athlum and to save to get two of every item in Celepaleis. Remember to buy the Flamberg for 7,500. Equip it, and keep using it until you can unlock its secret attack. This will take some time.
Special monsters
After entering Dillmoor, visit each area at least 150 times. This will unlock the special monsters that are in each area, such as the special Landworm in the high chambers of Robelia Castle (before you open up the upper area with Emma), and the flying dragon or land dragon in Dillmoor, and the land dragon and two other special monsters to fight in Gaslin Caves. This will work better if you have an accessory with an addition to Occurrences. These monsters will not show up until you go through Dillmoor, Baulson’s Quest, and Celepaleis.
