Makai Senki Disgaea 2/Tips and Tricks

Tips and Tricks

Prinny Court

If you throw a stack of multiple characters onto the gate to the Prinny Court, they will all be judged and receive the resulting crime bonus.

Arcadia

This is a high level item which boosts all of a character's stats. Normally you can only get this by defeating a secret character, but it is also available much earlier in the game as follows.

Use a cellphone in battle to call Actare (アクターレ), then take on the punishment slip for 'defeating Baal' (バールを倒した). The prize for completing this punishment slip and entering the Prinny Court is the Arcadia.

Also make sure you get as many characters in that court as possible, since you get 10 or so sin points (10% extra gained for all experience) for each one.

Throwing Diagonally

When you're holding something, if you hit the O button whilst changing direction, it is possible to throw diagonally.

Going deep into high level items

This is also a good trick from Disgaea 1. You can use a character with a Fist weapon who is at least level 1 in that item and use his first special ability to "knock" the gate keeper off the gate and onto the panel behind. This only works if there is a panel space open behind him and is somewhat level with the panel he is on. Great for going fast through levels and to get through hard levels where the enemies are too big to kill.

Quick High Level Nekomata

On Map 4-3, there are several monster units (Nekomata) and Enemy Level Up geo panels. Every turn, all enemies will gain a level, but as more turns pass, their level will become significantly higher. Your Base Panel can capture a Nekomata roughly twice the level of the highest party member located in the Base Panel. This will help you to determine when to throw the Nekomata on your panel. Using this method, you can use the captured Nekomata to capture a Nekomata twice its level and repeat until you have a max level Nekomata.

Example : Highest level character in Base Panel is 20. The recommended level of the Nekomata you can capture will be level 40.

Recommended method is to defeat the enemies around the higher bridge. Then lure the two Nekomatas near the bottom bridge, leaving the bottom corner-most Nekomata untouched and untempted. Once all other enemies are defeated, retreat with the top bridge and move your character near the Level Up geo triangle. Continue to skip turns until the last Nekomata reaches the desired level, lift / destroy the Level Up geo triangle. Using the lower bridge, lure the Nekomata into throwing range and throw it into your Base Panel.

If you are unsatisfied with your the Nekomata unit, reincarnate a max Nekomata for 9,999 stored levels. Your reincarnate after next will allow 40+ bonus points to assign.

Doing this trick early in the game may lead to a money shortage, since the captured Nekomatas will become increasingly expensive to revive.
