Dragon Quest XI (Switch) - Early Game EXP Farming With Electro Light (30K)
The good news for this method is that you can use any mob you want as the pep attack changes them into metal slimes. The kind of metal slimes you get improve as you level up.
Getting pepped up early-game is a matter of lots of defending then switching out any pepped required characters (Hero, Jade & Sylvando) so they keep their pepped state. Then SAVE, come back and reload if you get a bad result. It's likely some metal slimes will escape or that you'll get robots instead but this video shows what a good result will get.
The pep attack animation can be skipped on the Switch version, I just left it in for a thumbnail.
This becomes even more efficient when Erik learns Critical Claim from his expanded skill tree. You'll basically be using this method to get to LV 99, just your effectiveness at it increases as more options open up.
As an added bonus you could also follow up with Haulellujah for guaranteed loot but as this is submitted as an early game method I don't show that as it's quite awkward getting pep attacks up twice until late-game.
Liquid Metal Slimes can drop Happy Hats which give good Defense/Magic Might/Magic Mending. If you've farmed Bunny Tails you have a better chance of them dropping.
