How to Train Expertise
- Perform "Tarot Fusion" from Synthesis Chain Expertise with a useless equipment over and over.
- Rush or Spin away the Slime, Gaki or Will O'Wisp inside Virtual Battle, Electronic Fairy High Pixie in COMP-Hack Dungeon 1-A or the 2 Lost Hua Po in Suginami around (X14,Y18), (X15,Y20), (X14,Y21).
They will always spawn if 1 of them gets killed.- Choosing to pick the COMP-Hack, you will have unlimited spawn and no one to interfere with your target. Also you will need plenty of High-Grade Ointment or a Demon with a good healing skill from the Virus status and HP cost.
- You can use your bare fist without worrying about losing the Durability of your weapon.
- You don't have to raise Rush or Spin, using the default skill is good enough (Unless you're planning to raise them as well).
