How to Train Expertise

• Use a cheap gun you can purchase from the NPC or Full Metal Shooter to raise Expertise.
• Raise Rapid to Class 1 and learn the skill "Magnificent 7". The skill has a fixed damage dealing 7 to the enemy every time, therefore dealing minimum damage but filling the expertise quick.
• Ideal training area with quick spawn locations are:
  1. Slime, Gaki, or Will O'Wisp in the Virtual Battle.
  2. Lost Hua Po in Suginami. [X15:Y21] or [X16:Y19].
  3. Kodama in Nakano. [X14:Y19].
  4. Apsaras in Shinagawa. [X22:Y17] between 6:00 to 18:00.
  5. High Pixie in Home III COMP Hack 1-A. They use AoE (Area of Effect) healing spells to heal each other and if 1 is defeated, another High Pixie will respawn quickly.
     • You'll need 20 ~ 40 Agi and Bufu Stones for the 2nd room if you are alone. The Kodama can be damaged with elemental spells only.
     • The COMP hack is a nice private location without anyone interrupting your training.
