Level up fast in Tales of Arise by farming Chronos, completing sub-quests, and consuming EXP boosting food in the Land of Judgement. Read on to learn how to level up fast, how to farm EXP, as well as the level cap in the game!

How to Level Up Fast

Farm Chronos in the Land of Judgement

1. Complete the Spirit Temple Sub-Quest
2. Complete the Another Hillside Anomaly Sub-Quest
3. Complete the Otherworldly Visitors Sub-Quest
4. Farm Chronos

For the most part, leveling up in Tales of Arise can be done simply by completing main quests and sub-quests.

This should have Alphen and the party be in the lv.60-70 range by the time you unlock the Chronos farming method.

1. Complete The Spirit Temple Sub-Quest

The Spirit Temple is a late-game sub-quest that unlocks after defeating Vholran for the first time.
Return to Traslida Highway in Menancia after unlocking The Wedge main quest to start the sub-quest.

Completing this quest will also unlock the Golden Suite of Armor Artifact, which grants us a huge exp boost.

2. Complete Another Hillside Anomaly Sub-Quest

Another Hillside Anomaly is the next quest in the sub-quest line to unlock the Chronos exp farm. Head to the Earth Spirit Temple in Menancia and complete this quest.

3. Complete the Otherworldly Visitors Sub-Quest

Otherworldly Visitors is the final sub-quest and will culminate in a face-off against the boss we're looking to farm, Chronos.

4. Farm Chronos

After being defeated for the first time, players can speak to Chronos to challenge him again an unlimited number of times. Each successful attempt will reward the player large sums of exp, sometimes resulting in multiple level-ups after a single fight.

As Alphen and the party get closer to lv.100, the fights against Chronos will reward smaller and smaller amounts of exp., but if the player has an active Golden Suit of Armor buff, as well as the Sushi food exp boost, then at minimum, each successful attempt against Chronos will always yield 1 level.

How to Farm Exp

Exp is acquired primarily through battling and defeating enemies. Below, we have curated some tips on how to farm exp as quickly and as efficiently as possible in Tales of Arise!

• Unlock the Battle Chain Bonus
• Get the Suit of Armor Artifacts
• Cook and Consume EXP Boosting Food
• Keep fighting until cooking effect runs out.
• Recover your CP
• Repeat the Process until you are at a high level

Unlock the Battle Chain Bonus

The first that that will help you farm more EXP is by unlocking the Battle Chain Bonus. This is a system that rewards your party as you keep winning battles during exploration. You can unlock the Battle Chain Bonus during the Refreshing Roughousing sub-quest.

Use a Happy Bottle

Use a Happy Bottle to keep your Battle Chain Gauge high throught combat. This allows you to receive more items and EXP points, which is very helpful in giving you much-needed upgrades to your skills and equipment.

Get the Suit of Armor Artifacts

Two artifacts can greatly increase the EXP that you gain from each battle. These artifacts are obtained as a reward from sub-quests that are unlocked during the later parts of the game.

• Silver Suit of Armor - 20% EXP Boost
• Gold Suit of Armor - 80% EXP Boost

The effects of both the Silver Suit of Armor and the Golden Suit of Armor can stack up to total of 100% EXP Boost. This essentially doubles the amount of EXP that is yielded from battles.

By completing the Their Future and Spirit Temple sub-quests, both the Silver Suit and the Gold Suit are unlocked respectively.

Cook and Consume EXP Boosting Food

It's also important to cook and consume food that gives you EXP boosts

EXP Boosting Food

• Leaf-Wrapped Fish - EXP Boost T (Tiny) / 11 Minutes
• Sashimi - EXP Boost S (Small) / 11 Minutes
• Fish Steak - EXP Boost M (Medium) / 13 Minutes
• Sushi - EXP Boost L (Large) / 5 Minutes
• Fruit Sandwich - EXP Boost L (Large) / 10 Minutes

Keep Fighting!

After consuming food and using a Happy Bottle, you are now ready to fight enemies in the realm. All you have to do is to keep fighting until your cooking effect runs out. You will have a lot of time before you need to recover, so make sure you maximize it as much as possible.

Recover Your CP

After using up your cooking effects and CP, return to a campfire and recover. Running out of CP is dangerous during combat, so make sure you have it refreshed after a long run.

Repeat the Process

After recovering in the campfire, you can repeat the entire process all over again until you reach your desired level, and have acquired the skills you need. You can also use this process to farm extra Gald, which will give you better equipment to go along with your new skills.

What Is the Level Cap?

Max Level: 100

You can level up all playable characters until level 100. This will take a long amount of time to accomplish, and can be accomplished faster when you farm enemies mid to late-game. After reaching the maximum level, the next way you can make characters strong is by obtaining stronger weapons and skills.
