===How to Train Expertise===
You need a reliable Healing demon since your HP will be basically drained per skill use.
*Unequip all your gear/weapon and hit the [[Slime]]s on [[Virtual Battle]] room.
*If you have [[Retaliation|Lord of Armor]], make good use of it.
**Go to [[Shibuya]], find an [[Ocypete]] and hit it non-stop (or until your incense is done, in case you're using one). It's a good idea to bring a healer demon too (since you would basically get reflected every-time you use blunt attacks).
*Also for those with Blade/Sword of Etude and Lord of Armor (and healing demon, for convenience), and wants to raise Attack/Rush/Spin further...
**There's the option of opening an instance of Shibuya Quartz (Bronze), then finding an [[Aello]] to reflect Slash off.
**Shibuya Quartz (Silver), 25 Altered Magnetites = Your own private training ground for grinding spin.
***Non-aggressive Accomplished Ocypetes/Aellos (if you use Etude) will spawn if you hit the first switch there. 
* Start a (Need [[Hack Chip A]]) Home III hack run (Newbie Demon Buster).
** Before starting, get a junk weapon (like Machete or any cheap disposable weapon you found lying around) and use it until it loses all its durability (but don't unequip it)
** Bring at least 20 - 40 Agi and Bufu stones for Kodama if you solo.
** At boss room, unequip the rest of your gear (except your 0 dura weapon of course) and start spinning at Oberon. He only uses counter, but since you will have a broken weapon + no gears on, the damage will be pretty low, thus allowing you to train your expertise. Try to lock him in a corner with some High Pixies to heal him for less run around.
*** An alternative to the option above, is to equip Sword of Etude (but with full durability) instead of the junk weapon, use Lord of Armor and do the same with Oberon and High Pixies. '''DO NOT''' let the Sword of Etude reach 0/0 durability, since the bonus will not work then.

How to Train Expertise

You need a reliable Healing demon since your HP will be basically drained per skill use. 
  • Unequip all your gear/weapon and hit the Slimes on Virtual Battle room.
  • If you have Lord of Armor, make good use of it.
    • Go to Shibuya, find an Ocypete and hit it non-stop (or until your incense is done, in case you're using one). It's a good idea to bring a healer demon too (since you would basically get reflected every-time you use blunt attacks).
  • Also for those with Blade/Sword of Etude and Lord of Armor (and healing demon, for convenience), and wants to raise Attack/Rush/Spin further...
    • There's the option of opening an instance of Shibuya Quartz (Bronze), then finding an Aello to reflect Slash off.
    • Shibuya Quartz (Silver), 25 Altered Magnetites = Your own private training ground for grinding spin.
      • Non-aggressive Accomplished Ocypetes/Aellos (if you use Etude) will spawn if you hit the first switch there.
  • Start a (Need Hack Chip A) Home III hack run (Newbie Demon Buster).
    • Before starting, get a junk weapon (like Machete or any cheap disposable weapon you found lying around) and use it until it loses all its durability (but don't unequip it)
    • Bring at least 20 - 40 Agi and Bufu stones for Kodama if you solo.
    • At boss room, unequip the rest of your gear (except your 0 dura weapon of course) and start spinning at Oberon. He only uses counter, but since you will have a broken weapon + no gears on, the damage will be pretty low, thus allowing you to train your expertise. Try to lock him in a corner with some High Pixies to heal him for less run around.
      • An alternative to the option above, is to equip Sword of Etude (but with full durability) instead of the junk weapon, use Lord of Armor and do the same with Oberon and High Pixies. DO NOT let the Sword of Etude reach 0/0 durability, since the bonus will not work then.
