Best place to grind in "The Home Stretch"?

[otakon17]

No spoilers but I'm in the end game and around level 65, for anyone else that's in that area what's the best dungeon to grind out A-EXP and MAG? Something with lots of field enemies you can quickly sweep without heading into Squad Battles?

They aren't in the grand trad final water shop or meat shop

It's in the item shop, all the way at the bottom of the menu.

I'll add that the best way in the last month to get MP is the food item that restores 100 MP and cures Hex for the whole party. All of the ingredients can be bought in towns so you can make 99 of them if you have done some Merchant farming for gold.

Before last month, there's Magical Bread, too. It's much slower, granting 4 MP every 5 seconds for 1 minute or so, and can't be used together with Finishing Noodles or other field-foods but it's accessible much sooner.

Remember you can only cook them on the Runner when you go somewhere but you can make multiple at once, so buy in bulk to save on Time slots.

Strangely enough, the bugs are sold in the general shop, so try comfort concoctions.

for Magla utilize Tycoon and debt collector and the cursed food, in endgame the ingredients to make the cursed food (the one that gives 100 MP to each ally) are very cheap for their return. Also use trader summit and 4 tycoons, doing this gives each party member 300 MP per food. utilize ~ 50 food on a weak enemy and debt collector to get ~800-900k magla in roughly 30 min. Any enemy works for this and you cna max you gold out at the same time if you want ( Ihave max gold and ~700k magla left as I enter the final dungeon after beating avatar)

If you have some days to spare in the end you can get 2x honey from fishing and 60-80k MAG by traveling to Silento. There will trigger a fight in which you can use all your mana for debt collector (also use chars in reserve).

Afterwards in the evening I mostly did the 30 fights in the coliseum (another ~100k MAG).

The best spot to farm A-Exp is in the Disgraced Ruins (Bounty quest dungeon where you fight two bosses back to back on the final month). Right before the boss room there is a small side-room with two high level mimics, equip an archetype from the thief tree on the MC and make sure everyone has lucky find equipped. Go smack the two mobs as they have a high chance of dropping a 3,000 A-EXP item when stunned and killed.

If you aren't high enough to insta-kill them just enter combat with them when they are both stunned and immediately escape to reset their drops, just keep repeating until you have 99 of the item. If you one-shot them (think you need to be 68) then you can respawn them by going into Academia via the nearby cat.

This gives you insanely fast A-EXP, the issue being MAG for me. Where is the best spot to farm MAG in endgame? No idea, would be nice if someone posted this.

whew, thank you for this! im playing this game blind but after a few reads i realized that there are still the royal level for the archetypes. im doing this as we speak and i think this is the best place to farm before the final spot.
