• This guide assumes that you've hit the level 15 cap and each farming area has had its timeline restored.
  
• For easier farming, equip Fenimale with the "Fairy Circle" accessory. This converts damage to TP. Slot "Nature's Fury" on her. At the start of every combat encounter, use "Aura" to give Fenimale two attack turns. For 2000, 1993 and 1986 areas, have Fang and Sand block for their turns. Spam "Nature's Fury" twice to wipe out all the mobs. This conserves TP so you don't have to run back to portals or use consumables. For 1993 and 1986, you can just use Attack to completely avoid consuming any TP at all as one round from all your characters will easily kill all mobs.
  
• Keep Glasswort salad active to increase drop rates.
  
• To force mobs to respawn, save your progress and quit the game all the way to the desktop, then relaunch it.

NOTES: In my opinion, this is by far the best zone to farm Xyloplates. The snake mobs drop a lot of them, and the two mob spawns are easy to get to quickly. Just reset the mobs as described above and farm them repeatedly until you get as many as you need.
