Lol don't worry too much about that. It's good to be ahead on the level. We are about the same level, well, level 47 here. Just do alot of side quests for now hah.
at the beginning of chapter 3 when u can upgrade your items head to cape caem, theres a small light house with a well ext to it tbat had a glass stone or gem on top. said item is used to upgrade engine blade i to engine blade ii which for me had over 200 attack power, makes for an easy boost from there on out
Pro-tip. You can earn AP by finishing foes with Warp-Strike. You can earn quick AP by grinding to level 30 and heading back to hammerhead and farm Sabertusks for AP as you'll most likely one shot them by then.
I recommend doing as many side quests as you can and save all of your EXP. I did that and I saved up over 100,000 experience. Went to double my experience for the 10,000 Gil and went from level 19 to 43!
Daniel Escobar no problem. Glad it helped someone. You can also use your elemancy and add the item "Rare Coin" or "Debased coin" and it will also give you more experience points in that battle. Level up like a pro!
Control layout C made the difference between struggling with combat and rinsing combat. Parries and ripostes are so much easier to do with the shoulder buttons.
I got a trick that helped me literary complete the story with no effort: collect 100,000 exp by staying up for weeks in game or even more, that's just where I stopped. Go to the restaurant (idk if there's a better one) and double it to make it 200,000 exp.
Here's a tip. If you're exploring the early area and hunting monsters make sure you're at least level 15 before taking on the Bandersnatch in the desert. That thing is level 38 and *VERY* grumpy.
Another trick: sprint for a period of time and then constantly jump. During your jumps the stamina bar refills and you can sprint again. You can even preemptively hold the jump button while airborn so you make a frameperfect jump when landing. I'm not quite sure which is faster, jumping or sprinting. But one thing for sure is jumping > normal running
I find it worthwhile to sleep at a camp when you are just roaming around and doing small side quests, since they usually have a lot of elemancy points/treasure points from which you can choose what you need to get. Sleeping at a motel/caravan is what I do before going for a major quest. And I always leave with eating something from one of the diners first thing in the morning to get the stat boosts from food...
i started 2 days ago and have managed to get to lvl 32, but that is after endlessly grinding for hours upon end. This will realy help, thank you so much ☺
This is my first playthrough of the game, which I am loving so far, and that instant sprint tip will be really helpful at times, I'm sure. Usually I just ride Chocobos if I want to go somewhere on foot, lol.
I know that drove me nuts when she said that! But I forgive her because a lot of other youtubers are mispronouncing it too. It is kinda a dumb spelling tho lol
if money is an issue get to altisia and play the 10k pinball style game and collect 99 of the wooden block looking things then leave the minigame and you get an item that can be sold for 500k (can be repeated). at this point you will also have access to the 3x EXP rest spot. hope this helps some1 even tho its a bit late :)
Great tips, a couple i suggest is using a shield against fast nimble characters in order to make them vulnerable. Also you can literally run through the main game in 30 hours or less with avg equipment and running through un needed fights, so you can get the ring of lucii....when you have load up your game after beating the game you'll have extra content unlocked and a low level to still make the side quests challenging....essentially you can now explore to your hearts content without anything being blocked
Just play the game , most tips and tricks you will learn on your own fast enough. plus going all prepaired for a first play gives the game less replay value. so the 2nd time you can go all-out !
jerome vet I agree, the original FF series required lots of grinding to get your levels up, but more recent ones allow you to enjoy the story without spending too much time levelling up your characters
nice video only thing i didnt know was the infinite sprint n how to actually use the wait mode but those bounties def recommend those cuz i knew eventually we were gonna have to start switchin those weapons out n like most rpgs those high teir weapons come later in the game., with those bouties id say invest in weapons potions n elixirs, and DONT sell everything u find bc some of those can be mixed with the elements to make them more potent for those high tier enemies.
I was really lucky. I was wondering around not long after starting when I got attacked and was nearly killed by something. When I latched onto the right enemy it was a Cactuar ( did I spell that right lol ) gave me thousands of EXP levelled up about 6 times woohoo
Only started to you 'Wait Mode' in combat at Chapter 6 and it's proving to be very useful - Wish I would have used it sooner, so hopefully someone reads this and get's the heads up :) It gives you much more of a strategic advantage against your opponents.
So I just started and I'm not very good. Is it really worth holding onto exp as long as previous commenters are saying? I haven't done it yet but will I be missing out by not cashing in? Im currently lvl 19, really new to the series.
The narrator kept saying "Chugabos". What's a Chugabo? Also, could someone point me in the direction of Golden Kway? Is that near Galdin Quay? Thanks in advance :P
It's not as much of a 'boost' as it is a 'bonus' to what you have already acquired. So, for example, you decide to rest (with 500 exp) at the Hammerhead trailer which has a 1.2 experience multiplier. So, after it's all said and done, you would net a total of 600 exp. You get 'boosts' from various foods, which only last as long as the food buff is still in effect (duration depends on the ascension skills pertaining to food you have unlocked (on the Exploration tab).
Xander Crease - Unfortunately true. About Chapter 3, I decided to finally watch Brotherhood, the FFXV TH-cam Anime. About Chapter 5, I finally watched Kingsglave. While this clarifies the story MUCH more, there were still some questions. However, needing a movie to understand the political intrigue of this world shouldn't be necessary. My recommended watch list: 1.) Watch Kingsglave. You probably won't understand it all. 2.) Watch Brotherhood for a one-up on the character's personalities. Alternatively, after every chapter, watch an episode of Brotherhood. They're about ten minutes each and you can get right back in the action. 3.) Beat the game then watch Kingsglave again. There's lots of little bits that went unnoticed, and watching the movie again, after the fact, is not only refreshing but offers nostalgia and gives closure to the series.
Gabriel Valenzuela It's the only Final Fantasy game that definitely needs the Movie and an Anime in order to keep up with all the details. It's a shame though because it should be all within the game itself. They say at the beginning *For fans and Newcomers* This is not a great FF to start out with if you need to do homework on it's story details.
I had the same feeling. I was VERY glad that I watched the FFXV Kingsglaive movie. I could imagine being very confused, or worse, uninterested, without knowing what's going on. Kingsglaive adds sooo much to the background that makes this story so much better than past FF titles
In all fairness, she COULD have actually played much longer on another save file, and just started a new game in order to make this video (so the 'beginner tips' would be more appropriate for the levels of her party) *shrug*
This was imho a very good video one word pronounced incorrectly is hardly the end of the world-it's funny how ppl always have to pick up on one tiny mistake and comment about it and largely ignore all the good stuff-just sayin
I love the game, but that part of the story makes no sense, you are the freaking prince and you have to go running around like an idiot collecting stuff from the floor just to get a decent play to stay, or something to eat, really?
According to word of god, Noctis is intentionally making due with the money he can earn so that he doesn't stand out as being too rich. He DID have some spending money with him when he left Insomnia, but that was all sunk into repairing the Regalia after it broke down in the opening. Since he learned can make money hunting and doing other stuff, he just carried on with his business.
My fiance said the same thing while I was playing but I'm pretty sure they spent it all for the car and apparently they haven't invented the credit card yet lol
i'm on chapter 3 and level 49... think i overdid it a little bit....
Mikkel S jesus man
Mikkel S don't worry, because there's a long linear segment from chapters 4-8
Same. I'm chapter 3 and lvl 58
Mikkel S I was level 78 before i went to Altissia
Lol don't worry too much about that. It's good to be ahead on the level. We are about the same level, well, level 47 here. Just do alot of side quests for now hah.

Really, well that is the problem when I play these types of games. I have to complete every side quest, find every item, and kill every enemy!
thanks for the tip, I went from level 30 to 60 in less than half of the time it took me to get to level 30.
Daniel Escobar no problem. Glad it helped someone. You can also use your elemancy and add the item "Rare Coin" or "Debased coin" and it will also give you more experience points in that battle. Level up like a pro!
Nice tip! Thank you. Unrelated, but can't wait 'til July for FF12: The Zodiac Age!
Does that mean never camp or sleep so you bank all of it at once?
Control layout C made the difference between struggling with combat and rinsing combat. Parries and ripostes are so much easier to do with the shoulder buttons.
Bloodborne player? ;)
I got a trick that helped me literary complete the story with no effort: collect 100,000 exp by staying up for weeks in game or even more, that's just where I stopped. Go to the restaurant (idk if there's a better one) and double it to make it 200,000 exp.
Once you get to chapter 9 there is a 3x exp hotel, costs 30k to stay there though.
Here's a tip. If you're exploring the early area and hunting monsters make sure you're at least level 15 before taking on the Bandersnatch in the desert. That thing is level 38 and *VERY* grumpy.
Killed him on lvl 9 :D was one heck of a fight and a lot of fun!
Another trick: sprint for a period of time and then constantly jump. During your jumps the stamina bar refills and you can sprint again. You can even preemptively hold the jump button while airborn so you make a frameperfect jump when landing.
I'm not quite sure which is faster, jumping or sprinting. But one thing for sure is jumping > normal running
I've started few days ago and now I've reached lvl. 42
But those tips are really great and i wish I've seen this video earlier, thanks 😊😊
I find it worthwhile to sleep at a camp when you are just roaming around and doing small side quests, since they usually have a lot of elemancy points/treasure points from which you can choose what you need to get.

susukedaisuki I'm level 20 lol
susukedaisuki I'm level 72...that Galdin Quay hotel really helps. Just so everyone knows
I used the 3 times exp hotel but that one is 30k and is later in the game
Did you actually choose to make the toast when you had other options available?
This is my first playthrough of the game, which I am loving so far, and that instant sprint tip will be really helpful at times, I'm sure. Usually I just ride Chocobos if I want to go somewhere on foot, lol.
Im so late! Lmao going to start tomorrow😊 finally
For the stamina trick, I use a bracelet that I picked up that gives Noctis infinite stamina.
Don't forget you can fast travel to the car too
Thank you your video help me a lot.
Quay = 'key', not 'kwai' :)
I know that drove me nuts when she said that! But I forgive her because a lot of other youtubers are mispronouncing it too. It is kinda a dumb spelling tho lol
I'm American too and I was always told that word is pronounced key, despite the spelling lol.
im irish
They literally say it in the game when you arrive there
Words get pronounced differently depending where you're from. ENglish pronounce things way more differently than americans
Thanks, alot just started playing this after almost completing ff7 remake.
if money is an issue get to altisia and play the 10k pinball style game and collect 99 of the wooden block looking things then leave the minigame and you get an item that can be sold for 500k (can be repeated). at this point you will also have access to the 3x EXP rest spot. hope this helps some1 even tho its a bit late :)

i feel like wait mode is essential especially to libra the enemies without getting attacked
Really enjoying your FF vids-you really know your stuff
Just play the game , most tips and tricks you will learn on your own fast enough. plus going all prepaired for a first play gives the game less replay value. so the 2nd time you can go all-out !

Ty i found some tips very helpful !
I was really lucky. I was wondering around not long after starting when I got attacked and was nearly killed by something. When I latched onto the right enemy it was a Cactuar ( did I spell that right lol ) gave me thousands of EXP levelled up about 6 times woohoo
Great video! My fav. tips were sprint, explorer tech , and wait mode!
Only started to you 'Wait Mode' in combat at Chapter 6 and it's proving to be very useful - Wish I would have used it sooner, so hopefully someone reads this and get's the heads up :) It gives you much more of a strategic advantage against your opponents.
The Mau by the time you unlock all the airdancing abilities for noctis using your ap wait mode becomes rather obsolete imo
Wooo basically everything I figured out by the second hunt got it
I miss the days they used to use chest to find items
helpful. thank you
good tips thanks Lydia 👍🎄
I finish chapter 3 at level 77
I'm at chapter 7 and i'm level 27. Good job.
I don't know if it's a trick or an exploit, but for quick EXP, the expericast trick is pretty neat.
Warp to rocks, walls, or edges to refill WP.
4:50 How should I do that? with which buttons? (on ps4)
there's also ap unlocks for bonuses in wait mode
Can I have a video of you just saying chocobo over and over again?!
you should of mentioned some treasures are used for upgrades, the sturdy helixhorn for example I dare you to find 2 .
The weapons dealer in hammerhead doesnt have the Javelin for Iris that you talk about
great tips :)
So I just started and I'm not very good. Is it really worth holding onto exp as long as previous commenters are saying? I haven't done it yet but will I be missing out by not cashing in? Im currently lvl 19, really new to the series.
There is a 3x hotel in Altissia. Costs 30k.
The narrator kept saying "Chugabos". What's a Chugabo? Also, could someone point me in the direction of Golden Kway? Is that near Galdin Quay? Thanks in advance :P
sweet video.
How long does the exp boost last for after resting at a fancy place?
It's not as much of a 'boost' as it is a 'bonus' to what you have already acquired. So, for example, you decide to rest (with 500 exp) at the Hammerhead trailer which has a 1.2 experience multiplier. So, after it's all said and done, you would net a total of 600 exp.
You get 'boosts' from various foods, which only last as long as the food buff is still in effect (duration depends on the ascension skills pertaining to food you have unlocked (on the Exploration tab).
They game looks pretty cool but i feel like i might get lost in the story
Anyone who says they fully understand the story is lying, It's messy,
Xander Crease - Unfortunately true.

Freakin Flemun have you played any ff games before
Gabriel Valenzuela
It's the only Final Fantasy game that definitely needs the Movie and an Anime in order to keep up with all the details.
It's a shame though because it should be all within the game itself. They say at the beginning *For fans and Newcomers* This is not a great FF to start out with if you need to do homework on it's story details.

THE SECONDARY WEAPON PART:
do you have to use exactly those weapons? because it lets you assign other weapons too????
Golden quay is pronounced "golden key". What is this Kway thing?
Scott Scott it's this thing called an honest mistake, almost unheard of and super-rare I know. understandable that you might not have seen one before
my tip: Stock up on lots of healing items, and pheonix downs when you're at a low level, dealing with a boss higher than your level
I have the video of it as well if you would like it ha ha. It's not the best quality, but you can see it just going up and up.
"ive played heeps of final fantasy" - 12 hours gametime. You gotta pump those rookie numbers up!
said shes been playing for 10's of hours but the timer at the begining of the start screen at the bottm says 12 hours and 59 minutes.
In all fairness, she COULD have actually played much longer on another save file, and just started a new game in order to make this video (so the 'beginner tips' would be more appropriate for the levels of her party) *shrug*
If you're an RPG player, you shouldn't need this video.
nice tips :)
I'm I the only one who thinks she sounds like Hollie for PlayStation Access?
You said buy a javelin for Ignis in hammerhead. But you can't buy one there. You even show it in your video
how i find side quests with out the book
The click for infinite stamina isn’t working
Quay is pronounced key, you goose!
I knew that Final Fantasy and I don't know how to get different attires can anybody give me a tip on how to do that
How can I bank my xp in the ps4 cause I'm still in Lvl 1
...It's pronounced Due-Sky
You say 'potato' and I say 'French fry'! SAME DAMN THING!!
Did you even play the game? you pronounced Quay wrong, they beat it into your head every time you visit
This was imho a very good video one word pronounced incorrectly is hardly the end of the world-it's funny how ppl always have to pick up on one tiny mistake and comment about it and largely ignore all the good stuff-just sayin
I love the game, but that part of the story makes no sense, you are the freaking prince and you have to go running around like an idiot collecting stuff from the floor just to get a decent play to stay, or something to eat, really?
