Compilation of some tips and tricks I found along the way.
0. On Tuesday, Moonbunny Party Quest (same place as FPQ) gives 2 stamps at the same time upon completion. If you use 2 PC to run the PQ or do it with a friend, you can get some bpot stamps.
Also on the topic of FPQ, if you have 2 PC you can enter FPQ on two characters simultaneously and make 100k PQ point or ~4b per hour.
1. Ghost Ship Exorcist Badge and Android Heart have the smallest pool of potential lines in game (no trash lines like DropRate, Invincible on Hit, % chance to reflect damage and so on). This means bpot 24% or 27% for heart and badge comes by *statistically* easier than other items. Many people have noticed this and churned out tons of clean, only bonus-potted GSE/heart for huge profit.
2. Spell traces are sold by Miumiu the vendor for 50k meso each (4% discount if you are a Cadena). Auction house also has spell traces for cheap. You can even use spell traces for the 30% Innocent scroll option in the Enhancement window. Don't get scammed by dangerous inno service where you can lose your items. The only exception to spell trace innos is Ghost Ship Exorcist Badge since it has no spell trace option.
3. You can fuse equipments of the same name in Ardentmill and get a clean version back (basically a guaranteed innocent scroll). Do this for cheap equipments that got minused stats from Mchaos.
4. Evolab can level you from 200 to 210 in 15 minutes if you have 300k range and bring kishin inside the evolab. The EXP is amazing and all you need to do is find a kishin service for 15min: Evolab 200-210 video
5. Kanna makes for a very versatile prequest mule. You can use kishin to speed up kill quests in Gollux, Ghost Ship/Krexel & Commerci prequests. Kanna also reaches lvl 190 quickly for the stamp. Kanna can also function as a Monster Park farmer if you need; it's an "All in One" class.
6. Stay inside the Normal Cygnus waiting room after clearing it. When the next reset comes, you can attempt the boss without needing a dream key. This works if you make Normal Cygnus your last boss of the day and you log off/stay at the Normal Cygnus boss waiting room until the next reset.
7. A safer way to star tyrant equipments from star 2*-4*is by using pure meso (in enhancement window, 50m meso a pop). The first two stars come from AEES with 100% and 90% pass rate respectively (AEES is gained by clicking red cube fragments). Spam meso enhancements; if it fails back to star 0* or 1*, just use AEES to bring it back to 2*, rinse and repeat until you have 4* with no booms.
8. 4x Grand Spell Essence can also come from extracting Chaos scrolls 60% (not Mchaos), which drop a lot from Zombie Mushrooms. This makes them as good as CSS 10% and Epic Potential scrolls in terms of extraction.
9. There is a way to keep your red cube fragments in low quantity to always yield Epic Potential Scroll (for spell essence extraction), since they will turn into AEES if their quantity is 50+. Sell all of your red cube fragments to any NPC, buy back in bundles of 30 each, convert these into Epic pot scrolls and repeat until none left.
10. Quickly find out your own att/m.att to main stats ratio by having 2 clean earrings with 0 stats. Scroll one earring with Gollux Occult scroll for Accessory +1 att/m.att, scroll the remaining earring with 70% spell trace for your main stats. Take off your current earring and hover over the 2 test earrings, note how much range each pair gives. For example, the +1 att earrings give +1000 range, while the +1 stats earring give +400 range. That means you have att to stats ratio of 2,5 to 1 or 1 attack = 2,5 stats.
Additional tips contributed by friendly readers
[2] Scroll Hearts cheaply when using 10% wep scrolls by maxing out your Diligence trait in Ardentmill. By maxing out Diligence, you are granted an additional +10% scroll success rate, making each attempt on scrolling to pass at a 20% rate instead of 10%. Maxing out Diligence takes about 6 days worth of fatigue assuming you consume 3 Bear Power energy drink bought from NPC Nack in Ardentmill, and the +10% scroll success rate is permanent for that character. Just note that the the additional success rate applies to normal scrolls and not special scrolls such as AGS, BGS, Innos, Primes, etc.
[3] It is possible to max Empathy (for buff duration bonuses) on AriesMS by spamming Herbalism profession in Ardentmill; each level up in Herbalism grants you experience in Empathy. While Craftsman is the max level, there is no cap for both gained experience in Herbalism as well as "level up" cap in AriesMS. As such, it is possible to grind daily for Empathy with fatigue and a meager amount of mesos as its limiting factor - a very time and cost efficient alternative than buying the traits potions from MP or cause a mass deforestation in Ardentmill.
[4] Damage% lines are actually good for early game players that aren't yet geared enough to get benefits from att%/matt% lines due to their poor total total wa/ma from the lack of scrolled eqs and starring, the most notable sources for wa/ma. Just know that att%/matt% lines becomes more important the more you gear up, and bd% > damage% when early game players are getting capable of accessing and downing early-midgame bosses (e.g. CRA bosses, hmag, nlucid).
[5] Crown titles give 3% IED 3% BOSS 3% HP/MP 3% DAMAGE each so if you unlock all crowns it's 3% x 5. There is also a 5% hidden bonus damage when you max out your Insight trait (the actual stats is called "Elemental Ignore" for which every late game mob is elemental).
