Good level up, money, items. hints and tips for Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies

Good level up, money, items.

Go to a dungeon that has metal slimes, but also with a lot of blue chests. Go through the dungeon getting the blue chests, then battle the metlimes (and any other monsters that get in your way), when you deplete your mp (which I will get to later), go to stornway inn, rest, and put your money in the bank. Go save and turn off your game, and go play some other games or read or w/e.

Lame yeah, but after a while (not sure the exact while) go back to dq9, and go back to the dungeon and the blue chests will be back.

Yes, you already knew this, but coupled with the metlimes it's really good to do this several times.

The two dungeons that are good for this (during the main story) are the bad cave and the bowhole. The bad cave for earlier in the game (like when you get to it and a little bit after), then the bowhole when you get to it (and then until the last boss, I got to level 50+ in this dungeon before battling corvus).

The bad cave has metal slime stack (or metal medley, not sure which name) and the bowhole has liquid metal slimes.

The items you get each time are not amazing per say, but in the bowhole I got like 20+ mini medals, not including the ones you get when you get there the first time.

Also, my team is minstrel with a sword, a priest with a spear, a mage (with w/e weapon), and a martial artist with claws.

The mins with a sword be cause of metal slash (or you could use anything that uses a sword. I never change my vocations until I beat the main story, because I feel whats the point? When I'm able to change my vocations I am already established in the ones I started out with. But thats just me. W/e works for you.)

The priest with the spear because of thunder thrust (again or whoever uses a spear. BUT, a priest is nice because of it's healing spells, which is why I talked about basing when you leave the dungeon on your mp. Sure you can buy, or alchemize, herbs but why waste the money, when you can just pay 12gp at stornway)

The mage doesnt have anything special (in my party), so I just make him do a regular attack.

Martial artist with claws, because of flailing nails (again or whoever uses claws, but I prefer a martial artist in my team for reasons that I said in a different hint).
