    If you go to the Longfort map (the one before the Arena), you can buy an item called the "Reeking Box". This item can then be used on the map to summon a Risen army to wherever you're currently positioned that you can choose to fight. These are essentially the same as the random Risen fights that spring up on the map from time to time. It's the only real way to grind outside of DLC. Each fight will vary in difficulty depending on where you use the item (the later game the place you summon them, the stronger the foes get), but the enemies will always have some of the items you can sell for gold, so you will be able to make money off of them.

    Other than that, I recommend buying the Golden Pack DLC if you want to grind. It has two fantastic grind chapters that can be repeated indefinitely. Just go to the Outrealm Gate and buy it if you want (then buy the rest of the DLCs, because they're all AWESOME).

    As for class switching, it's based on items. There are two Seals in the game. The Master Seal promotes from a base class to a more advanced class (the base class must be at least level 10, and Villager, Manakete, and Taguel don't have classes to promote to). And the Second Seal lets you switch from a level 10 base class or any level promoted class to another base class, or from one level 20 promoted class to another promoted class. Each character has three classes that they can switch to. Cordelia is one of the best units in the game, because she gets to switch between Mercenary, Pegasus Knight, and Dark Mage, which are the three best classes in the game.

    Second Seals can be found in chests early on, but you will be able to buy them after Chapter 16. Master Seals unlock in shops a bit earlier, but I don't remember when, exactly.

    Kind of. Aptitude is a fantastic skill on its own, and really boosts stat growths. Donnel can reclass into the Mercenary class, which is one of the three best classes in the game. But it depends on how much work you're putting into things. If you're grinding or doing DLCs, he's more likely to reach his full value. Also, keep Aptitude as the last skill he has. It doesn't affect a ton, but it can really help another character later, depending on choices you make.

    Have you made any S-rank Supports?

    Advice: Frederick is really powerful early on, but he won't get as much Exp, because he's already a promoted class. Abuse the Pair Up system. ALWAYS be Paired Up (it unlocks at Chapter Three). It's very powerful, and your main character even gets extra Exp when paired. Pay attention to the weapon triangle. Stay grouped up, there are no AOE attacks in this game.

Part of your world

by Fynn on 06-06-2017 at 04:37 PM
So there's this nagging issue I've had for quite some time now. It's a pretty abstract issue but one I think is pretty interesting and perhaps even important to share nonetheless. For many reasons, it has only become more pronounced recently.

As some of you may know, I want to be a writer. I try to do as much writing as I can. I even do writing for a living, though as an SEO copywriter, it's not exactly that I have an opportunity to spread my creative wings as part of what keeps giving

On FFVII (part of my Fmarathon rant)

by Fynn on 11-23-2016 at 11:16 AM
Decided this is worthy of being a blog-post, since it turned out to be a much bigger rant than I expected and I'm not sure the marathon's audience is really there for that kind of stuff

Frustrations of the writerly sort

by Fynn on 07-01-2016 at 11:13 AM
So there's this thing I've been struggling for quite some time. I don't want to call it a "writer's block" because it kind of seems like an excuse for being lazy. And it usually doesn't last long. This is something that's been eating at me for a long time.

I just kinda feel that I can't write anymore.

I mean, I still write articles for the site sometimes and I write other texts at my work, but it seems like, creatively, I've dried up. I'll come up with ideas

On story expectations

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 11:57 AM
So this is kind of a general discussion, but the general rant I have is based on three popular 3DS RPGs: Bravely Default, Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Shin Megami Tensei IV. Sorry if this is chaotic, as I'm just writing this as it comes into my mind. Also, spoilers from the three games abound.

All of those games were very well received, though for different reasons. SMT is kind of here to serve as a neutral ground, as the evaluation of its story is pretty divided, whereas the consensus

Character Appreciation: Junpei Iori

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 10:37 AM
This is in no way an idea I stole from Pumpkin, no siree.


Junpei Iori is a character from the Persona franchise. He first appears in Persona 3 and all of its subsequent releases as a playable party member. He becomes a social link character as well in the female path of Persona 3 Portable, though he isn't date-able. He is also playable in
