How to Train Expertise

Strip to nothing if it does not contribute to Expertise gain to save your dura and macca.
  • Go to Virtual Battle's Gakis room, and keep guarding their attacks after punching one of them.
    • Bring a healing demon and set it to only use Curative Spell so it won't interfere with the demon in question.
