Sure it's still mostly 1 ABP fights, but early on you should be able to blast through them a lot faster than you would be able to farm ABP anywhere between there and Jacole. Take the time and master a few jobs before heading to Walse, it'll save you effort in the long run.
This isn't true at all. In the ship graveyard, in the lowest level of the ship that held the world map (the one you can enter that was nearest the boss fight against Siren), only three varieties of battle take place. Either two mind flushers and an undead husk which give you one point, three different enemies that give you two points, or quite often you get two undead husks and they give you three points. Further, you can access battles worth three points before you even enter the wind shrine, the battles against two bandersnatches near the torna canal
