Money Farming Guide
Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster’s main form of currency is Macca and is used for purchasing items, magatama, and demons, paying for fusion services, using healing fountains, and other essential features. Since you will come across very challenging enemies throughout the main story, having enough resources to become better-equipped becomes increasingly important.
Below are the best ways to farm Macca in the game, including methods to earn money during the early, middle, and late stages.
Early Stages

Farm Apsaras for Aquamarine

Target Demon | Apsaras |
Sellable Items | Aquamarine (can be exchanged for Bead Chain at Rag’s Jewelry). |

Other Farming Methods
Use a Demon with the Treasure Hunt Skill
Area | Any section of the 2D areas |
---|---|
Target Demon | None |
Sellable Items | Various |
Having a High Pixie (or any other demon) with the Treasure Hunt skill grants you a chance to pick up random items while exploring the 2D areas of the game. The likelihood of getting an item using this method depends on the demon’s luck stat. It is also recommended to have a demon with the Estoma skill in your party to temporarily prevent encounters as you walk around.
