Get the most out of your turn
If you are trying to level all of your characters mainly
by using team attacks, etc., move all your characters into position
for a team attack. As long as none of them besides the initial
attacker have not performed any actions, after the team attack
you can move them back to their original locations and move them
again. Repeat this as desired. This also works if your characters
are just out of a healers range; you can move them, heal them,
then move them back into battle.
Etna's diary
There are two hidden switches in the castle. One is behind
the throne, and another is near the skull on the counter of the
Rosenqueen shops. Flip both of them to allow access to Etna's
diary, which is in the middle corner of the intermediate hallway
between the throne room and the shops. If you visit this area
consistently for each chapter, you will be rewarded with a Testament
item in the final chapter.
Easy experience
In stage 5, level 3 (Terrible Cold), there is only
one Geopanel that does not have the invincibility attribute. Combine
all the enemies by throwing them into each other, making one high
level enemy. Throw the enemy onto the Geopanel that is green.
Trap him/her on the Geopanel without invincibility by surrounding
him with your characters. Since all of your characters are on
invincible panels you cannot be defeated, yet you can wear down
the high-level enemy who is trapped on the non-invincible panel.
This is a great way to jump 10 levels at once early in the game.
Get to the Jotunheim episode and go to Terrible Cold area. The
entire map will be invincible except for one location. Throw all
of the Sexy Demons together. This should get you about a level
114 Demon. After that, throw her all the way to the corner at
the top of the map that has the "None" status and surround
her, one on each side. It helps if your attack is at least 300
on each of the characters that are attacking. It also speeds the
process if you bring one or two Mages with Brave Heart. Keep casting
that on your characters every turn, as it is stackable. This trick
is worth the time, and gains about four to six levels for each
character in the team attack.
In episode 9, level 1, there are only nine enemies in the level.
They are in a 3x3 block. Use Mage's 9 square attack or Laharl's
Winged Slayer attack to hit all of them at the same time. For
any that remain, use your lower characters to finish them off.
You should be able to kill all the enemies on your first turn,
so you never get hurt. This usually works when you are between
level 20 and 45 to 50.
Ask the assembly to "Triple EXP" then go to the Jutenheim
area "Terrible Cold". Give the character you wish to
level up your best items because they will need them, depending
on what point in the game you are at. Throw all the enemies into
each other, creating a level 112 enemy. Then throw the enemy onto
the non-invincible square and kill it. You will gain the experience
of killing a level 336 character. By doing this three times, a
level 1 character will be at level 50.
Go to Field of Virtue in Celestia (the map with four vampires).
Throw all of them in one square, fusing them into one, and kill
him. Together with the Exp +100% Geo Effect, the experience will
be enough for a low-level character (-50) to gain decent levels.
This works even better with triple experience in Dark Congress.
Statisticians also help, but will not really change much unless
you have 300 of it.
Getting Testaments
Go to Prinny Land 3 periodically, as you can steal
Testament from Prinny God as many times as desired.
Overlord Priere
Complete the "Alternate Netherworld" Side
Area to acquire Priere. To defeat Priere, after killing the other
two monsters, throw her to one of the floating square around the
stage, and pummel using Dimension Slash (or any other desired
skill/magics). If using physical attacks, having more than 45000
ATK is strongly recommended. Note: Her accessory Arcadia cannot
be stolen.
Witch Marjoly
Complete the "Beauty Castle" Side Area to
acquire Marjoly. To defeat Marjoly, deal with the two mages first
so they will not heal anybody. Then pummel her with your best
attacks before she uses any of her powerful spells. Note: None
of her items cannot be stolen.
Tyrant
When the "Baal Castle" Side Area is completed,
Laharl will be promoted to the "Tyrant". Whenever Laharl
enters the Dark Congress, his "reputation" will be boosted,
meaning that almost any proposal will be approved without bribing
at all.
Training high-level characters
As preparation to level-up the characters, you will
need a tremendous amount of money; 3 billion HL is ideal, but
you could gain money fairly quickly by entering the World of some
powerful item, and then by selling it. Assuming that you have
the highest Customer Rank, shop around and look for items on sale
with at least one 40 Statistician on it. Then enter its world
and subdue the specialist. Note: Having the "exit" will
save a lot of time. For one unsubdued 40 specialist, you will
have 80 when its subdued. Try to subdue and fuse them until they
are exactly or more than 300; which will mean you will need 150
Unsubdued Statistician. Equip the item with the 300 Statistician
you have just made to the character you want to train. Then, go
to Cave of Ordeal 3 and keep killing the monsters there. Having
the 300 Statistician that will actually quadruple your experience.
You will be leveling up four times faster than normal. However,
tripling the experience using Dark Congress will not help much;
it only applies to one monster. If you find Cave of Ordeal 3 too
difficult, go to Field Of Virtue in Celestia instead. Then, fuse
all the vampires into one and kill it. Also use this method when
your character has just transmigrated and is not powerful enough
to complete Cave of Ordeal 3 by himself or herself. After about
one hundred levels (or several hundred after 1500+), transmigrate.
This means that if the level before transmigration was 300, then
transmigrate when you reach 400. Do not transmigrate when the
level is lower than it was before, as this will weaken your character.
Always make sure to transmigrate your character as a genius. If
you do not do this, it defeats the purpose of transmigrating.
Make sure to raise the monsters' levels after they get too slow.
If you raise the monsters' levels to max, clearing the Cave of
Ordeal 3 (level 750 and 810) will give you 20 level boosts after
getting past level 2000. If you want to level-up multiple characters,
then it is recommended to obtain another 300 Statistician, considering
that you cannot transfer specialists within battles. Level up
your weapons as much as possible. Get the legendary weapon by
stealing from monsters or by bonus, and try to max it out to level
100. It is very critical to transfer as many corresponding specialists
as possible; they boost the weapon power. Specialists' power does
not count -- just try to fill the item with the same specialists.
For example, if you were using a sword, then fill the sword with
Dieticians (legendary items have 9-13 Pop in default) and boost
its level. For the bow, fill it with half Dieticians and Marksmen.
It is also critical to defeat all the Bosses in the Item world,
as they increase item power or Pop. After finishing the 30th,
60th, and 90th floor, add another Dietician to it. To deal even
more damage, train your weapon mastery skills. Using the method
for Statician, collect 1900 subdued Armsmaster, equip it, and
go to a stage with invincibility. Fervent Melody in Sea of Gehenna
is recommended. Once there, get an ally to pummel each other,
rather than just killing monsters as usual. This strategy can
gain mastery skills much faster, and you can do this as much as
desired. After you are done, finish the stage. Raising the levels
of each skills, however, is a big challenge. Since there is no
way to boost the speed of gaining skills' levels (Armsmasters
do not help them), all you can do is keep using it. This is, however,
not recommended for monster characters; their skill levels will
be reset to zero every time they transmigrate. The same is true
for character-specific skills.
Higher Dark Assembly influence
When at the screen where you can select which character
will address the Dark Assembly, choose any character. Once someone
is selected, go back to the screen that you were just at. Then,
select the same character again. Your Assembly Influence has now
changed to a higher or lower number. Do this as many times as
desired. The number should almost always change.
Senator Gift List rankings
The following is a list in order from best to last
when you "Give Gifts" to the Senators in order to have
them vote in your favor when submitting a proposal:
1. Total Support
2. Strongly For
3. In Favor Of
4. Leaning Yes
5. Either Way
6. Leaning No
7. Against
8. Strongly Against
9. Loathe
10. Total Opposition
Of course, giving them an item that has "Must Have!"
will definitely jump at least one space. If you give them an item
that they are just "Interested" in, it sometimes takes
two or more depending on their level. Giving them any lesser items
is a waste of items unless you are desperate for votes.

Better hospital items
When you earn prizes at the Netherworld hospital, you
can get rare versions of the prizes. When a prize becomes available,
just keep selecting "Get Treated" and go back and look
at the prize in "Claim Prize". The stats will have changed.
Keep repeating the process until it has the desired stats or rarity.
Note: You do not have to heal anyone when selecting to get treated.
Capturing monsters
To catch any monster type character in the game, just
pick up a enemy and toss them in your base panel. When the enemy
is in your base panel, all of your characters in the base panel
will try to make the enemy submit. If you catch it, that character
will be in your party after you complete your current stage. Note:
You can not catch Bosses or humanoids.
Ronin with 777 HP
Create a Ronin and make her skilled. Get her to level
27 (she will have Counter 2). Equip her with the following: Broad
Sword (Rarity 83, SP+ 6, Atk+ 65), Power Jacket (Rarity 217, HP+
4, ATK+ 15, DEF+ 51), (Rare) Belt of Will (Rarity 17, HP+ 9, ATK+
47, DEF+ 3), Muscle Victory (Rarity 88, HP+ 311, RES+ 25). If
this does not work, try putting those items on her when you create
her. Rarity does matter.
Glitch: Attack on Dark Cannon
Use some skills on Dark Cannon created by Scouts to
see some interesting graphical glitches. For example, using Jack
The Ripper on Dark Cannon makes it look as if it doubled itself.
Glitch: Totenkreuz damage
When used Totenkreuz gun skill, it seems that the skill
dealt the damage twice. However, it actually deals damage only
once. So, the actual damage on target is half the "Total
Damage" displayed.
Glitch: Cannot return to base panel
In the stage Neo Eden in Human World, for some reason
you cannot return to the base panel, even if you tried to throw
someone in it. The only exception is when you choose a character
but cancel it within the same turn.
