[Octra 0]Complete guide to leveling up the fastest! Easily reach Lv99 from the beginning by increasing the rotation rate x experience value multiplier to the maximum

In Octopath Travelers 0, also known as Octora 0, you lead a group of eight heroes on an epic adventure as you travel across a vast world. The best part of this game is the diverse job system and strategic turn-based battles, but raising the level of your character is essential for the story to progress smoothly. Especially in the early stages, the enemy's strength increases rapidly, so learning an efficient leveling method is the key to success.

In this article, we will thoroughly explain how to maximize the “turnover rate (combat clearing speed) x experience value multiplier (amount gained per battle)”, which is the most important factor when leveling up Octra 0. If you understand and put this principle into practice, you will be able to dramatically shorten your development time from early to mid-game and keep your game above the recommended level. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, please use this as a complete guide to achieve the fastest training.

1. Golden rule for leveling up: Master the multiplication principle of turnover rate and experience point multiplier

What determines the leveling efficiency of Octra 0 is not simply repeating battles, but the multiplication of two factors: “turnover rate” and “experience value multiplier.” Turnover rate indicates how quickly one battle can be completed, and the ideal is to clear within 1-2 turns using all-out attacks. On the other hand, the experience value multiplier amplifies the experience points earned in one battle with equipment, abilities, facilities, food, etc. By combining these, we can achieve several times the efficiency.

For example, if you fight an enemy with a base experience value of 100 at a multiplier of 150% per battle and keep the turnover rate to 2 turns, your time efficiency will jump to more than 3 times the normal rate. In actual testing, it is possible to stably earn tens of thousands of experience points per hour with a multiplier of over 200% + 1 turn kill. Turn on the cursor memory function and quickly select weak points to further improve your rotation rate. Based on this principle, we will develop concrete measures in the following chapters.

element	Target value	effect
rotation rate	1-2 turns	The total number of battles increases due to time reduction.
Experience value multiplier	Over 200%	1 battle experience value will be more than doubled
Multiplication result	More than 4 times more efficient	Achieve Lv1 → Lv50 in a few hours

As shown in this table, operating with both in mind is the core of fastest leveling. Next, we will start with the equipment that is the basis of the multiplier.

2. Route to obtain the top priority equipment “Brooch of Happiness” and how to make the most of it

The key to experience value multiplier is the accessory “Brooch of Happiness''. This item increases the wearer's experience points and JP by 50% at the same time, and is useful from the beginning to the end. It has an exceptional boost effect of 125 base experience points and 30 JP, and overlaps with other multiplier factors.

Obtaining route details

• Location: Obtained from Princess Mary in Atlas Dam Castle.
• How to do it: Progress through the main story of “The Master of Wealth” and obtain it by “begging” or “stealing” after reaching the princess. The success rate is over 50% at a reputation value of around 16, so a save load is recommended.
• Recommended timing: Immediately after acquiring the ship. After clearing the prologue, pass through Cragspier via Valore and head straight to the Flatland region. Enemies along the way can be defeated by running away frequently.

After obtaining it, it is best to equip it to the battle leader and use general magic to wipe out the small fry. There is also an EXP booster (Shepherd Rock road blue treasure chest) as an alternative, but since it cannot be duplicated, I will prioritize the brooch. With this equipment alone, it becomes realistic to reach a magnification of 150%.

Please note that even if you equip multiple items, only one will have the same effect. Concentrate on equipping one person in your party and allocate other access slots to strengthen firepower. If you actually hunt Catlin with the brooch equipped, you will get 142 experience points and 34 JP, which is a noticeable difference.

3. Stack up the multiplier with the ability “Experience Point Up” and Town Build Facility

In addition to brooches, abilities and facilities will further strengthen the multiplier. The “Experience Point Up” support ability is increased by 20% and can be stacked. Learned through hunter jobs etc. and shared with all characters as a select ability.

Obtain ability

• Secret to increasing experience points: Beg/steal from the traveler-like NPC in the central plaza of Cragspear. 53% success with Fame 16.
• Other EXP increases: Utilize the support skills of swordsman and merchant jobs. Unlocked by learning 4 battle abilities.

Town Build Facility Utilization

Build a training center and statue in Wishvale.

• Training center: Reserve members will gain 70-80% experience points (improved by placing practical training tag residents). It is released after clearing Chapter 3 of the Holy Fire and requires 5 grapes to recover all HP.
• Gold Catlin Statue: +30% experience points.
• Blue Octolin Statue: +10% experience points.

If you install these, the basic 100% + brooch 50% + ability 20% + statue 40% = over 210%. Since you can also grow your backups, you can strengthen up to 8 people at the same time. The statue is not mistaken for a “suspicious statue”, and the EXP0 statue is only for level adjustment.

magnification source	effect	Duplication
happiness brooch	+50%	Possible
Increase experience value	+20%	Possible
gold statue	+30%	Possible
blue statue	+10%	Possible
training center	reserve 80%	–

This combination achieves maximum magnification.

4. Maximizing turnover rate: Optimal party formation and combat techniques

Magnification alone is not enough. We will introduce organization and techniques to increase your turnover rate. The goal is to kill in 2 turns with a total break + damage.

Recommended party (4 people at the beginning)

• Protagonist (swordsman/scholar): In charge of firepower with mysterious arrows (all bows).
• Alexia (scholar): Find out the weak points by searching and attack all lightning and dark magic. This is a top priority addition.
• Fen (Hunter): Accelerates with BP passer and attacks all.
• Tresa (merchant): Performs BP passer and earns JP with Lucky Arrow.

combat techniques

• Cursor memory ON: Speeds up weak point selection.
• Frequent use of spirit stones: Ensures magic hits.
• After the break, the entire AoE will be repeated.
• Enemies with a high escape rate will aim for an immediate break.

One “Ribbon of Attraction” is enough to increase encounters (no duplication). You can obtain it from the underground NPC in the Cragspear slums or from the Victor Hollow armor shop 6500 Leaf.

This will allow you to play more than 10 battles per minute.

5. Complete list of the strongest leveling spots by level band

Spots are selected based on uniformity of weaknesses and access. I will deal with small fish while aiming for Catlin to appear.

level band	spot	Features	EXP/Examples
Lv1-15	West Valore Morimichi (Lv23)	Sword/dagger/cane weakness, Catlin (1000EXP) rarely appears	1000+
Lv15-30	Valore Nishikaido/Flame Grace front	Lightning/dark/bow weaknesses, materials are good	200-300
Lv30+	Danger level 55 Island (after the ship)/Atlas Dam Plain	Thunder/dark unity, Bourgeois Catlin (2400EXP) will appear	400+

West Valore is the most efficient spot. Catlyn has a 50% escape rate, and her sniper piercing enhances her accuracy.

6. The final boost with cooking and auxiliary elements: the true value of grape juice

The dish “Grape Juice” (EXP +25%, 20 turns) is required. Used just before battle, it goes well with all-out attacks. Expand material production in the fields and achieve unlimited supply.

Other auxiliary elements are as follows.

• Earn leaves by merchant “collection”.
• Aim for a random EXP double with the dancer “Mysterious Dance”.

With this, it is no dream for the total magnification to exceed 250%.

7. Common mistakes while leveling up and immediate workarounds

• Mistake 1: Too much emphasis on the story → forgetting to gather friends. →At least 4 people (Alexia priority) will participate in parallel.
• Mistake 2: Setting up a suspicious statue → EXP will be 0. →I will remove it immediately.
• Mistake 3: Duplicate Enka equipment → becomes invalid. →Equip only one.
• Mistake 4: Ignoring turnover rate → wasting time. →It will be an AoE specialized formation.

If you avoid these things, you will be stress-free.

8. Summary: Master rotation x magnification to clear all Octra 0 at the fastest speed

Octra 0's fastest leveling is the perfect operation of the brooch of happiness + Avi/facility multiplier + high speed rotation + optimal spot. If you start from West Valore at the beginning and move to 55 islands after the ship, you can reach Lv99 in a few days.

If you follow this guide, there will be no barriers to upbringing and you will be able to enjoy pure adventure. Please fully enjoy the world of Octra 0.
