NG+ ~ Level 90

[Mefta7_Alfaraj]

Would it be faster (and perhaps less tedious) if i speed run the story and kill the last boss at low level (say level 40) and then start NG+ at level 90 and get the rest of trophies ?

 

I remember leveling up the characters to level 99 to be a painfully slow process.

There are multiple ways to do it while afk. I'm pretty sure it takes more time to speed run the game then just afk level.

I don't remember the grinding was troublesome way back on the ps2 and that the ps2 original was more difficult than this release as far as I heard, reaching level 80 might comes naturally if you're going after hunts and not skipping 70% of the battles, but level 99 will require you to hunt those super monsters thingy and grind on a slightly higher level'd enemies than you, some locations will net you a huge amount of EXP after any enemy you kill.

Farm Abysteels at Hennes Mines (last part of dungeon).It will take 2-3 hours to reach level 99 from 70+. Spam Sleepga + Curaja

Do you lose every LP at the start of NG+? Beside the Mist Walker trophy and a couple other ones, I have to clear stages 58-100 of the trials, I've just read about starting at lvl.90 at the beginning of NG+ (that would make clearing the later levels of the trials less painful), but if I lose every LP and jobs get reset, I don't know if that would be a smart move.

You don't even need to be level 99 to beat trial mode, I did it quite easily on the 60s.

However, if you start ng+ you'll lose all other progress, and stuff like the bestiary, mystwalker and all that... yikes, not worth it, just farm Abysteel if you need to level up.

I've made it to stage 99 at level 80, but I get completely destroyed by Omega in seconds. Think I'll have to redo the whole crap due to not having the right equipment.

 

edit. Took me ages but I've defeated him using the reverse strat near the end.

I wonder why they never brought the improved NG+ from XB1/Switch versions in this...
