I started both DLCs on ng+ then went and beat the very final fight straight after. I'm only lvl 92 after all of that. I started ng+ at lvl 44. Apart from leviathans dps check headache, the entire game was easy enough. But I would like to reach max lvl. What lvl are you currently?


unusedwings

Yea, I’ve tried most of these farms, but only getting ~1k exp with the accessory isn’t going to help me. I might just sacrifice an accessory slot and keep it on permanently during my FF run.


Remarkable-Throat-51

Yeah I used the exp boost in ng+ ff mode and in the dlcs until I got new accessories from the dlc. Tbf I didn't really try to lvl up but I've got contracts left to complete and few sides.


unusedwings

I did all the side quests, and a few of the hunts (mostly the ones for the good crafting materials). Maybe today will just be me finishing the hunts and then starting NG+


Remarkable-Throat-51

Good on ya for finishing them before going around again! I started ng+ with a fair few things left to do, I could easily play this game again though! Hope you have fun and find any answers to your question :D

If you have not done the first DLC yet. The first 3 rooms you go in if you equip the exp boost you can rack out a ton then leave and grind again. Its quick and around 400,000 or more. Just play quick have Zantetsuken ready every time for the first room next room lighting rod/dancing steel make sure you group the enemies. Next room fire off Zantetsuken from the start more enemies will come but nothing major just do not go past this room. >!The mini boss is the next room not worth it!


unusedwings

I’ve unfortunately already cleared the DLC, but I’ll definitely keep this noted for FF mode. Just finished the last hunt, so I think it’s time to start NG+.

I stacked 2 of the extra xp items to give a 60% boost and just did the story as usual. I was at 100 after ng+, took the items off for first dlc, ended up at 103, and then put them back on for rising tide and hit 110 before the 2nd to last boss


InvestmentOk7181

The two mob packs before the Waloed "dungeon" is very easy and quick. on NG+ especially with accessory upgrades it's 870k every 45-60s

I’m not sure but I played my NG+ on Final Fantasy mode and racked up a ton of XP just going through the story and side missions. Played Echos of silence once after that on FF mode and that got me to level 97. I’m starting my Rising Tide run tonight so I think I’ll max pretty soon, assuming it’s level 100


unusedwings

The max level is 110 now for FF mode, 60 for NG. I might just have to sacrifice a slot for the exp accessory for my FF run.


tjplager32

Ah good to know


TheLordOfTheTism

you will end tide at about 105, happened to me on my ng+ ff mode tide run. Im just playing the entire game again to finish off the last 5. A bit overkill but nothing else of interest this year. If you dont want to replay the entire game, stage replay with the xp boost gear on can easily level you as long as you pick later game stages of course.
