Always Explore with a High Golden Ratio

Make sure your Golden Ratio is always at 100% in the Treasure Forecast, or at least as close to max as it can be, in order to bring back the best and rarest treasures.

Doing this will increase your Gang's Treasure Rank very fast, making you progress through the story even faster. The more you bring back to base at the same time, the higher their value becomes.
How to Find Treasures

Collect Several High-Value Gold Treasures

Collecting more Gold Treasures than Silver Treasures will raise your Gang Rank even faster. You can find Gold Treasures by using your Treasure Vision.

Dispatch Monsters

Even monsters not in your party can level up, so long as you send them out on Dispatch missions. After they return from their mission, they will have gained Exp or even leveled up.

Clear Dungeons Using Treasure Maps

You will often get Treasure Maps from Dispatch Missions. Make sure to seek them out every time you get one, as they give a good amount of Exp and rare treasures.

Defeat Great Sabrecats to Level Up Fast

For Levels 10-30, the fastest way to level up would be to defeat difficult enemies called Great Sabrecats. They can be found a little west of the train station in The Wingswept Moors.
How to Level Up Fast

Recruit a Lot of Monsters

Scout and recruit a lot of monsters from every island. More monsters in your party will increase the chances of you having a higher Golden Ratio, as there will simply be a wider variety of monsters with different Favorite Treasures.

Collect Sanguinite to Repair All Train Stations

Sanguinite is used primarily to repair train stations on each island, making traveling around each island much faster and easier. Give the Sanguinite to the Station Masters of each station, who can be found next to the station's elevator.

Tips for Beginner Players
Move Around Faster with Sprint Find Gold Treasures With Treasure Vision Use Dragon Attacks on Strong Enemies Use Chimera Wings When Stuck Don't Forget to Heal Have One Monster of Each Forte in Your Party Upgrade Your Base Get Back Your Stolen Treasure!

Move Around Faster with Sprint

Monsters with Sprint
Ham Shamwitch	Sham Hatwitch	Hat Hamwitch

Since the regions you have to explore are very large and running around on foot can take a while, it is recommended to take one monster with you that can do the Sprint Forte skill, which allows you to quickly zoom around for a short while.

Find Gold Treasures With Treasure Vision

Treasure Vision is a mechanic that allows Erik and Mia to use a monster's vision to spot hidden treasures in the game. Treasure Visions can only be used once you are near a hidden treasure.
How to Use Treasure Vision

Use Dragon Attacks on Strong Enemies

Dragon Attacks will easily beat strong enemies. Make sure to save these attacks for when battles are getting dicey.
How to Use Dragon Attacks

Use Chimera Wings When Stuck

If you're carrying too much treasure, and you're too far from a train station, and you're in deep trouble, use a Chimera Wing to easily take you back to base. Make sure to save these items for when you truly need them.

How to Get Chimera Wings

Don't Forget to Heal

During your adventures, you can heal through various means such as your Dragon Dagger, healing pellets, and resting at campfires.

Likewise, allies who fall in battle can be revived by holding A! Note that this consumes MP, so if you run out of MP you will be unable to revive allies.
How to Heal and Revive Monsters

Have One Monster of Each Forte in Your Party

All recruitable monsters will have one Forte that is unique to them. Always try to include as many unique Fortes as you have in your party.

There are 5 monster Fortes in the game but only 3 members to include in your party so try to make a good diversity in your team whenever you plan to explore the overworld to be able to gain access to as many areas as you can!

All Forte Skills and How to Use Them

Upgrade Your Base

Upgrading your base allows you to expand on the number of options you can do at your base. Increasing your ranks gives you and your gang passive bonuses such as having more treasure troves or increasing the amount of items you can steal or pinch from enemies!

All Base Features

Get Back Your Stolen Treasure!

You can get back treasure stolen by Rival Gangs by completing the Gang Quest that appears right after. Find them on the map, then pull out the enemy gang's flag to retrieve your stolen treasure.

Note: Not all treasures that were stolen from you out on the field will be able to be retrieved.
