*** PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION ***
(This video shows you how to get all the EXP/SP/Fol you'll ever need but the below info is updated and even more optimal!)

This is an effective method of post-game farming for EXP, Fol (money) and SP (Skill Points), available once you have reached the second region of the post-story dungeon, " Maze of Tribulations" where you will be getting copious amount of EXP from Metal Scumbags. You may also equip EXP to SP/Fol roles to farm for SP/Fol! For best results find a mob with 3 Metal Scumbags in it. I've managed over 2.6 million with this set-up!

You will want:

- Shortcakes (you can buy the ingredients on the Charles D. Gaulle G and from Ruddle in the Resulia inn once you've done his three quests). These give +50% EXP bonus.

- The Instructor role. When maxed out this gives +50% EXP bonus. You unlock the role from viewing respective PAs (namely an Ann one on board the Charles D. Gaulle G). If you don't have Instructor you could try Betrayer.

- The Ace role. Maxed out, this has the effect of a factor from 1 Insignivon (+7 unit Rush Gauge fill).

- For the Reserve Rush (RR) method; synthesize a bunch (8-14) of Insignivon Swords. You can stock up on Wires and Rivets aboard the Charles D. Gaulle G and synthesize 3 of each (6 slots). Alternatively you can buy Gold from Santa in the Maze of Tribulations (accessible from your ship after beating the story) and synthesize 4 of those. You want a quality of between about 37-44. It is an uncommon result so this might take a while...

- Unleash as many RRs as you can in battle! (I mostly wait for max gauges here but performing one every time you have 1 unit works too.)

FOR SP FARMING:

- The Minstrel and Altruist roles. These stack. Altruist will deduct all your EXP and and award more SP.

- To get a RR SP bonus you need to land counter attacks. I didn't do that here so you should get a better result.

- For Fol farming, use the Miser role as well and mash O instead of X. Again, I just mashed X so you can achieve better than this.

Creation is required for this method! If you have not unlocked the various modes of it you will need to complete Welch Vineyard's quests in Myyidok.

I made the mistake of making this video last thing at night so I made some silly mistakes, but this serves to show how effectively you can farm even in spite of moments like that! I finished the night with Fidel at LV 210 and completed maxing everyone out at 255 the morning after.

NOTES:

- If you opt for performing a RR every time you have 1 unit ready, you'll want to disable RR Performance animations! Me having them enabled in this video serves to better show what I'm doing.

- If you're stuck at LV 99, you should see a new Specialty in the bottom-right called "Limit Break" after beating the story.
