Do some side quests.

You can earn a good amount of gold and some useful items by doing some of the available quests in Nier’s village after talking to Popola at the library.

All Side Quests

Kaine

Because of Kaine’s high magic resistance, the best strategy against her is to duel her with your weapon. You can run and get around her to avoid most of her melee attacks and retaliate as she recovers.

When you have lowered her health a bit, Kaine will begin her second phase. She will gain a projectile attack that travels forward and a spinning slash with her twin swords. The same strategy of moving to her side applies her since her sword wave attack does not have good tracking. Unload on her when she misses and always stay on the move.  When her HP reaches about 25%, the battle will end.

Hook

Hook only has two moves during the first phase of the fight. The first is its leg shockwave that you should jump to avoid. The second is its mouth projectiles which can be avoided by simply running around the battlefield. Use Dark Blast or your melee weapon and attack one of its legs until the attack gauge appears on it. When it does, push on the offense to destroy it.

Hook will eventually summon sphere-shaped shades that you should deal with first. Be sure to have Hook in your camera so you can still avoid its shockwave and projectiles attacks. Continue attacking Hook’s other leg again afterwards.

Hook’s attacks become more powerful during its third phase. Press on the attack while jumping to avoid its multi shockwaves until the attack gauge appears on its head. Destroy it to end the fight.
