Makai Senki Disgaea 2/Power Leveling

How to power level characters

Unlike the original disgaea, power leveling has been nerfed to some extent. However, there are places where it is still possible to power level characters.

Episode 4-3

There is enemy level up 10% geo symbol in the area. You can pass several turns until the mobs are at the desired level to kill. Make sure to take out the beast tamer early on.

Episode 8-1

Only 6 creatures, with 4 of them dragons (which give a lot of XP). Time to abuse Lion's Roar, Moon Blade, or any giga spell (other than fire) that has an AOE. This should get all your characters til level 50 until you're forced to pass the make enemies stronger bill.

Episode 9-2

There is an XP+50% geo symbol and the enemies usually stay on those red panels. All of the enemies are mage-type, so they have fewer HP than most enemies of similar level. However, they give less base XP as the dragons in Episode 8-1.

Episode 11-3

The reverse damage geo symbol means time to power level up those healers, as the bulk of the map is covered with this effect. The mana +50% also helps for future transmigrations.

Caves of Ordeals 1

Throw the 2 XP boost panels on red and throw the defense +50% on nothing (unless they hit very hard). All the mobs start at level 60.

Caves of Ordeals 4

Even more XP boosts, and this one is even better than the first map in this area. The enemies aren't wearing anything, and are bunched up in nice groups that will make your mages with leveled magic very happy people.

Dark Sun Map 1-4

Excellent place for healers (like Episode 11-3 map), but your healers need the huge area of effect spells, capped felonies, and a leveled staff before they can rake in the XP.

Dark Sun Map 13-1

With the stipulations, and 18 level 260 mobs, most players abuse the enemies revive every other turn on this map in order to gain levels fast. The geo panels have beneficial uses, which is rare for a dark sun world.

Alternatives

As long a character has a spell that is considered a "buff" or a "healing" spell, that character can cast it over and over again and gain XP as long they have SP. Prior to level 50, its an effective way of gaining free XP (most opt to use the Episode 2-1 map to cast until they run out of SP). As levels go up, however, this alternative proves to be very time consuming and most phase this out.

Check rewards for clearing an stage. If you are on the verge of clearing the stage, you may want to consider bringing out weaker members to gain free XP. Its as effective as buffing over and over again, but the XP rewards from clearing stages vary greatly.
