This episode is dedicated to AP farming in Everlang Island in order to learn most of the abilities available.
Extra info/corrections/comments on this episode:
* You will notice an important drop in image quality from the episode 44 and onwards, due to a forced device replacement (the previous phone was stolen). I would suggest then setting the video quality at the max 720p in order to make it bearable.
* I usually master almost all the abilities available in Disc 3 in this kind of challenges, in order to be at ease to pass the remaining battles and to start the main training against Yans once in Disc 4; I usually put off mastering abilities that require a lot of AP but aren't really useful (like Long Reach and Restore HP for example).
* Without taking into account the friendly monsters, the forests in the islands west of the Forgotten Continent (Salvage Archipelago, Everlang Island and Sacrobless Island) are the best spots to farm AP in Disc 3 in my opinion, because the only monsters encountered there (Worm Hydra most of the time and Gimme Cat sometimes) are the most harmless and the least prone to waste time among the monsters that give 3 AP per battle when petrified (Worm Hydra always starts with Venom Breath that can be guarded by Antibody, while Gimme Cat always starts by requesting a Diamond).
