- Ignis will tell you to camp out or eat a cooked meal before going on a mission. As these provide buffs to your party, it is wise to heed his advice.
- Later on, in the game, staying in camps or outposts will count towards your Ascension Points (AP), so camp out or stay in similar places when you can.
- Places of elemental energies are also marked on the map. When you find yourself running low on materials for creating spells, search them out.
