==Early AP Farming Method==
==Early 50% EXP food (Chapter 3)==
Recommended Level :15
When you get to [[Duscae ]] make your way to the [[Chocobo farm Farm]] located west of where it says [[Malacchi Hills]]. Speak to the owner about renting a [[chocobo ]] but he says you have to kill [[Behemoth ]] first. Stock up on [[fire ]] spells to make the job easy. After you complete the [[mission i think ]] you can do quests for the owner. One of these missions gives you access to a recipe that gives you 400+ hp [[HP]] and 50% more exp[[EXP]].
==Thunderbolt Sword==
In the southwestern most part of the map in the [[Malmalam Thicket ]] is an extremely powerful lightning greatsword[[Lightning]] [[Greatsword]] called [[Thunderbolt]]. If you are under geared it may be difficult but you can suicide run to where the camp site is. The area up ahead with monsters [[enemies]] is the location of the sword. Use magic to make the job easier.
==Early moogle accessory(20% more exp) Accessory that increases EXP gain and the Hardedge greatsword(easy enemy appenage breaks)Weapon that makes Enemy Appendage Breaks Easy==South of Causcherry Plains follow the winding road until right you see where the green road turns blue. There is a path east of the road through the brush you can take. There's also a hut that sells good fishing gear here. Keep heading east until you reach the cave entrance. Make sure to save. Kill the enemies in the entrance room (or bypass them by hugging the right wall )which is made easier by using the thunderbolt sword. Left path leads to hard edge after you fall into an area with eyeball enemies. Kill them then collect the sword. Go to your map and warp to the entrance. Go back in and take the right path which you have to squeeze through. Suicide run through until you reach a fork in the dungeon. The moogle accessory is on the ground with no enemies around then just warp back out.[[Moogle Accessory]] - 20% More EXP
South of [[Causcherry Plains]] follow the winding road until right you see where the green road turns blue. There is a path east of the road through the brush you can take. There's also a hut that sells good [[fishing gear]] here. Keep heading east until you reach the cave entrance. Make sure to save. Kill the enemies in the entrance room (or bypass them by hugging the right wall) which is made easier by using the Thunderbolt sword. Left path leads to hardedge after you fall into an area with eyeball enemies. Kill them then collect the sword. Go to your map and warp to the entrance. Go back in and take the right path which you have to squeeze through. Suicide run through until you reach a fork in the dungeon. The moogle accessory is on the ground with no enemies around then just warp back out.
==Easy Gil/Quadcast Magic Pieces==
Be sure to have the [[Thunderbolt]] and [[Hardedge]] equipped on [[Noctis]]. East of [[Causcherry]] plains are three craters. In one of the craters there is a couple of [[enemies]] called [[Bulette]]s. [[Warp strike]] them with the Hardedge then attack them normally until you receive a [[Shield Spike]]. Then finish them off with Thunderbolt. Repeat this method for all of the enemies. Each piece sells for 1200 [[gil]] or can be used as a [[Spell Catalyst]].
==Save All The Treasures You Find==
Save all the debased [[treasures]] you find. The most common being [[Debased Coin]]. If you combine all three [[magic]] types and use multiple coins as a [[catalyst]] you create a very powerful leveling spell called [[Expericast]]. Use them on powerful enemies like the [[Iron Giants]] at night time. You gain a ton of EXP if you have the moogle item and the boost from the chocobo quest. I suggest waiting until you have access to the 3x EXP [[hotel]] so you can gain a massive amount of EXP.
==AP Farming a Bit Further into the Game==
For AP farming a bit further in the game you can wait until you get the [[Beast Whistle]]. Go the [[Sabretusk]] area i mentioned earlier and blow the whistle. A couple of low level enemies pop up. Warp strike kill them all and if you need [[MP]] just refill with a [[teleport]]. If you time the whistle right you can call in the next group of baddies just as the last enemy falls. You get an insane amount of AP quicker than any other way.
==Good Recipes for Grinding and Questing==
2 good recipes you can pick up while in [[Lestallum]] can help immensely with grinding and [[quests]]. Go to the lookout area facing the [[Meteor]]. There will be a woman eating at a table. Get close and [[Ignis]] learns the recipe called [[Mother & Child Rice Bowl]] which increases [[HP]] by 1,000, [[EXP]] by 30% and Increases enemy item drop rate by 50%. One of the food vendors near the road sells a dish called [[Seasoned Midgardsormr]] Which increases damage dealt based on the level difference between the party and enemies, Increases [[Attack]] by 350 and Increases max [[HP]] by 1,000.
