Amayui Labyrinth Meister:Tips and Tricks

General Tips

 * Different levels of the same Divination type can stack with each other. For example, the three types of Decisive Divination can be stacked to increase dropped items by up to 6 from enemies.
 * One of most useful cost-effective uses of Divination stacking is to use the first two levels of Quantity Divination and gather almost double the amount of materials from most gathering nodes. This can generate some quick and easy money.
 * Stack Decisive Divination before doing any boss. Either refer to the enemies page or stack the effect before entering any "Center" or "Core" map. Mimics and Treasure Putettos also have decent drops (the latter will show up as a mystery enemy on the unit preview).
 * When in a Union, the Split command can be used to gain a free action with a single unit as long as it takes any ranged action or a melee action is non-lethal and places the unit back on the tile where the Union originated. This will cause the Union to automatically reform and the unit that didn't move can take an action while fully benefitting from the Union. This includes the activation of various Support skills despite the fact the other unit has taken their turn.
 * An enemy's item drops can be changed by saving a turn before defeating them. This is useful for getting numerous rare drops, such as those that sell for a substantial amount of money. Defeating enemies with magic attacks can also manipulate their drops since it can trigger additional Genma Stone drops.
 * Stat gains upon leveling up can also be manipulated in this fashion. Make sure to save a turn before leveling up, then do so until you receive the desired result. Note that this is a bit less effective in this game since Divinations can be used to greatly improve growths to the point that some characters may hit stat caps very quickly.

Early Game (Chapters 1-3)

 * The Burning Factory map in Gear City Defar is excellent for farming some materials such Magic Stones and Ore. All 4 gathering nodes can be gathered in 2 turns fairly early on after the map is fully controlled.
 * Wood Shield is one of the better shield slot items for this point in the game. When upgraded, it has no penalties and provides the useful Shield skill, which will be relevant for a long time since skill ranks do not exist in this game. Prioritize making enough of these for all party members before sinking materials to generate money.
 * The Magician Staff and Mare Gloves are powerful early-game weapons that provide a high amount of INT especially when fully upgraded. More importantly, they provide the useful Magic Resist skill that can even reduce magic damage dealt to Union partners.
 * Mercy Bangles are an excellent source of early game profit. They generate 800M of profit for the cost of 1 Magic Stone and 1 Ore.
 * Gray Doll is an okay material sink for Bright Mucus. It generates 360M of profit for 3 Bright Mucus.
 * Twin Shields is a good material sink for Ore. It generates 640M of profit for 3 Ore.
 * Crafting Genma is also a decent way to make profit and can sink excess Green Grass, White Grass, etc. Liquid (except for White Liquid) can be bought for much less than the produced Genma sells for. Be careful not to consume Genma Stones you may need for crafting and upgrading though.

Mid-Game (Chapters 4-6)

 * While Great Magic Staff cannot be crafted, it has the very useful Soul Shield skill when upgraded. Two of these can be consistently obtained by this point.
 * Blood of Revival can be crafted in Chapter 5 and is an excellent source of profit (3202M if buying Red Liquid). It only truly requires Rainbow Grass since Red Liquid can be purchased. The Deep Forest Trail at Puppet Forest Seah is a Rainbow Grass source that can be fully gathered from in 1 turn using units with Teleport.
 * Feed all your stat boosting gems to Ann Ploa, then pair her with any Dark unit and steamroll the rest of the game.

Endgame (Chapters 7-Finale)

 * The Hallowed Boots are available in the shop during the finale and grant Swift, or Double Action when upgraded. This is well worth saving money for but note that the upgrade materials are extremely tedious to grind (Desire Trial - Upper is the best spot for all the materials).



New Game+

 * By this point, most characters should have Double Action. This can be utilized to take 4 actions each turn with a Union. This can be accomplished by taking a Split action at some point with one of the units after they've used their first move. Up to 3 Union actions can be done this way as well.
 * Feed all your stat boosting gems to Anastasia and use her to steamroll the entire game.
