We can now spend tens of millions per day in the Nameless Town Tavern.
Those with 99 million leaves (like myself a few days ago…) will soon find their stash disappear into thin air.
This guide explores the best ways to farm leaves.
Achieving 50% Bonus Effect #
The easiest thing to “set and forget” is to gear one unit on your team with both Lavish Necklace and Wealthy Hunter’s Emblem III to raise leaves earned by 40%.
You get Lavish Necklace from clearing Rematch: Master of Wealth (Advanced).
- FYI the enemy Herminia (Lv 90) is weak to Axe and Dark. Her attendant is weak to Fan and Wind.
Wealthy Hunter’s Emblem appears as a random drop from defeating Herminia a 2nd time, or via the Exchange Shop for 400 fragments of greed.
For the remaining 10%…
- Equip another Wealthy Hunter’s emblem,
- Equip Extravagant Brooch I (5%),
- Have Pia, Billy, Conny, Harry or Penny on team (3%).
Now you can earn up to 50% more leaves from defeating elite enemies, especially the super bosses in your daily grind.
Daily Grind – Bonfires of Battle I #
- Defeat the 8 super bosses in each of the biomes. Their ashes sell for 100k each. The bosses can drop 20k-50k each, based on bonus.
- Ignore the other Elite enemies, unless you need to farm them for Enemy Feats (here’s my enemy feat tracker to assist).
- Optionally defeat the Shadow Dragon for EXP, 20k+ leaves and a chance at an accessory.
Daily Grind – Bonfires of Battle II #
This will take the bulk of your daily grind.
The goal is to farm the elites that drop “-stones” that sell for loads of money.
- Softenstones and Strengthstones are the most valuable drops. There are 7 elite enemies that are guaranteed to drop Soften/Strengthstones. There are 6 enemies that might drop Softenstones. You can “reset” your game to reroll the drop, but this is a massive time sink.
- Refinestones and Polishstones are a distant second.
Elites marked with blue squares are guaranteed to drop the most valuable stones.
Elites marked with a blue/green squares have a chance to drop the most valuable stones.
Elites marked with green squares are guaranteed to drop less valuable stones.
