Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Timehas 14 Life (jobs)to try, some are focused on Combat, others on Gathering, and some on Crafting, but all of them require one thing in common to progress, and that is experience (XP). In Act 1, when players arrive at Mysteria for the first time, and they are able to choose and level up basically every Life, they might feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of work it requires to raise these jobs and unlock all their abilities.
In this guide, players will find all the best spots to farm XP with Gathering & Combat lives and the most efficient way to level up all Crafting Lives in the early-game stages, giving them a considerable advantage later in the adventure. Players will find detailed information on farming routes, enemies, gathering materials, and useful tips to raise Crafting Lives faster.
Best Spots To Level Up Miner Life
To start leveling up Miner Life inFantasy Life I: The Girl Who Steals Time, players should first activate this Life in the Paladin’s Guild. Once players acquire the Miner Life and their first Pickaxe, they will go through an introductory tutorial, whichcan be skippedif players have already picked a previous Life, and this will immediately grant them the rank of Fledgling and a better Life Gathering Tool. However, it is recommended that players follow the introductory Challenge Quest to learn the ropes of mining.
After this is concluded, players can start farming Miner Life XP in Mysteria, and the best way to do that is by gathering tons of Copper Ore, which can be done in three different spots according to the level the players have:
Banaan Cave can be foundwest of the Capital, and it will be the ultimate destination for the players' Mining Journey (in Act 1) and they can farm Experience there up to level 30 thanks to the presence of Superior Copper Deposits and the nearly impossible to break Fire Crystal. Luckily, once players hit Level 20, they will be able to unlock Bedrock Smash, which really does the trick to farm this huge special Deposit, which yields tons of experience and respawns every 5 minutes.
Best Spots To Level Up Woodcutter Life
Starting from the Eternia VillageWoodcutter’s guild, all the spots around the Life Trainer are safe for beginners. Most of the trees there can be felled without too much trouble, but if players want to ramp up XP fast, they should try the following spots.
Like Miner or Angler, Woodcutter has the same ‘Sweet Spot’ mechanic that allows players to cause more damage to the node (tree) and cut it down faster and without using too much SP. Players should aim to unlock the Sweet Spot tracker ability from the central branch of the skill tree, since it will save them tons of time and effort.
Best Spots To Level Up Angler Life
Angler might be one of the hardest Gathering Life to level up, so players need to arm themselves with patience and follow this route with spots to farm XP faster:
Every Life Skill tree has+Exp% nodes, which will increase how fast players can raise their levels. Investing in these early on, then resetting the Skill tree in the Guild, is the best way to level up Life Skills faster.
Best Spots To Level Up All Combat Lives In Fantasy Life I
Combat Lives are a little bit harder to level up, since they require a lot of mob slaying, but there are specific points during Act 1 that are great for farming loads of experience. No matter which Combat Life (Paladin, Hunter, Mercenary, Magician) players pick, they will certainly level up faster in these spotsand following these tips:
Combat Lives like the Hunter or the Mage are better than the Mercenary or the Paladin in terms of AoE damage. The Hunter is especially good against bosses, since it can basically cheese them using Sleep Arrow. Players should try every Combay Life to see which one suits their tastes better before investing in leveling it up.
Tips To Level Up Crafting Lives In Fantasy Life I
Unlike Gathering or Combat Lives, Crafting Lives are a little bit harder to level up. The logical way to raise Life XP on these classes, would be to get as many ingredients as possible and craft tons of things, but since there’s a mini game players need to beat each time they craft, it gets complicated. Unless, of course, players have leveled enough to unlock auto-crafting. Here’s what they should do to level up all Crafting Lives early:
Players will notice that they will soon reach Crafting Life levels around 8 to 10. The next step would be to craft 2-Star recipes that yield even more experience. But to do that, players will have to repeat the mini-game process, then unlock auto-crafting for the next tier.
