Switch to Very Easy Difficulty

The experience you gain after defeating enemies in battle is the same on all difficulty modes. This means that you will have an easier time leveling up on Very Easy than on any other difficulty setting.

Game Difficulty

Defeat Strong Enemies

Strong enemies are marked by a yellow effect on the screen as you explore fields or dungeons. Defeating them allows you to get almost five times the experience you would gain when fighting normal monsters.

Fight Multiple Enemies

Take Advantage of Experience Bonuses

It is recommended to take on multiple enemies at once to earn certain experience bonuses after defeating them. A good way to do this is to find a strong enemy alongside multiple weaker ones and initiate the battle with first strike. Below is a summary of experience bonuses you can activate when grinding for levels.
