Octopath Travelers 0, commonly known as Octora 0, is a work that features a deep system that combines strategic turn-based battles with eight-person parties and town building elements. In this game, the efficiency of leveling up is the key to success. It is important to master the fastest leveling method, as if you are slow to develop at the beginning, you will be forced to struggle later when progressing through the story and challenging high-difficulty content.
In this article, we will comprehensively explain the specific steps to maximize the multiplication of the rotation rate (combat rotation speed) and the experience value multiplier, from the beginning to the end game. If implemented, it is possible to reduce the time it takes to reach level 20 by more than half.

1. The core of raising Octora 0 level: thorough multiplication of turnover rate and experience value multiplier
The leveling efficiency of Octra 0 is determined by "turnover rate (how quickly one battle can be completed) x experience value multiplier (amount of experience points obtained in one battle)". The standard experience value for one group of small fry enemies is approximately 83 and JP20. By accumulating multipliers based on this, it is possible to stably acquire several hundred experience points per battle, increase the turnover rate, and dramatically increase time efficiency.
Definition of turnover rate and improvement points
- Definition: Minimize the number of turns and operation time from battle start to victory. The ideal is a 1-2 turn kill.
- Improvement points:
- Wipe out groups of enemies using all-out attack abilities.
- Accelerate the break by attacking weak points and instantly destroy the shield.
- Turn on cursor memory to speed up menu selection.
- Maximize the boost from the first turn with BP Passer.
Example of how to accumulate experience value multiplier
Start with the basic 100% and overlay the following.
| element | effect | Possibility of duplication | remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| happiness brooch | EXP/JP +50% | – | It is a top priority equipment. |
| The secret to increasing experience points gained | EXP +25% | Possible | Beg/Steal from Cragspear NPC |
| grape juice | EXP +25% | Possible | Creates Fen, lasts 20 turns |
| training center | Reserve EXP 70%→80% | – | Place tag residents |
| gold catlin statue | All EXP +30% | Possible | Town build will be installed |
| blue octoline statue | All EXP +10% | Possible | Same as above |
Maximum magnification example: Basic 100% +50% +25% +25% +10% +30% = approximately 240% (2.4x). Since backups also grow at 80%, it is possible to strengthen 8 people at the same time. The experience value jumps from 83 per battle to about 200 experience points, and if the rotation rate is 2 turns, the time efficiency will be more than 4 times.
If you fight sloppily without being aware of this multiplication, your efficiency will drop to 1/3, so always check the multiplier display when using it.
2. Complete guide to equipment and abilities that will maximize your experience value multiplier
The basis of multiplier is equipment and abilities. Make it your top priority in the early stages.
Details of the brooch of happiness and how to obtain it
- Effect: EXP/JP +50% at the same time. The standard will be 83/20 → 125/30. He will be the main force until the end.
- Obtain: Beg/steal from Atlas Dam "Princess Mary" (prioritize after obtaining the ship). There is an EXP booster as an alternative, but since it cannot be duplicated, I prefer the brooch.
- Note: Does not overlap with EXP booster, 50% is the strongest brooch alone. Please prioritize equipment so as not to overwhelm the access frame.
Immediate collection of the secret to increasing experience points gained
- Effect: EXP +25%. If it overlaps with the brooch, it will exceed 75%.
- Obtaining steps:
- After the prologue, move to Cragspear via Valore (Lv5-7 recommended, use a lot of escape).
- Beg/steal from the "traveler-style NPC" in the central plaza (53% success with fame 16. Increase fame with surrounding minnows).
- It will be made into a select ability and can be equipped to all characters.
- Practical example: After equipping, you will get over 200 EXP per battle. We recommend collecting it at Lv10.
Other abilities
20% additional experience value increase support ability, stackable.
Just by arranging these, the magnification will be over 150%. Next, strengthen it further with Town Build.
3. Utilize Town Build: Train all 8 people at the same time at the training center and statue
Wishveil revival will be the pillar of leveling. Let's proceed in parallel with the torch story.
Building a training center and maximizing effectiveness
- Release: After clearing Torch Chapter 2, you will be able to install 12 facilities by joining Ludo.
- Effect: Reserve EXP 70% → 80%. Optimize with practical training/technical training tag resident placement.
- Steps:
- Collect tag holders at NPC "Invite" in various places (Theatopolis, etc.).
- Achieve an infinite training loop with HP recovery grapes (Shepard Rock Tool Shop).
- I will make the ability secret and use it for selection.
- Advantage: During a battle with 4 people in the front line, 4 people in the back line will automatically grow by 80%. Total efficiency will be doubled.
Statue installation effect
- Golden Catlin Statue: All EXP +30%. Created with cat whiskers (Catlyn Steal).
- Blue Octolin Statue: +10%. Increases to +40% by stacking statue effects.
- Installation timing: Town level 3-4. Magnification of over 200% is possible by installing the statue.
If you neglect town building, your party will become imbalanced due to stagnation. Please check daily.
4. Party composition and technique collection for super-fast battles
The key to turnover rate is organization. The order of priority for allies in the early stages is Alexia > Steer > Main character > Others.
Recommended formation (vanguard/rearguard)
| vanguard | role | rear guard | role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Viator | tank/sword | alexia | Lightning/Darkness overall magic |
| Kel'thas | evasion tank | main character | Mysterious Arrow (Bow Remnant Processing) |
| Delitia | firepower | Steer | BP/SP passer |
| Fen | bow aid | Tresa | JP Earn/Subsidy |
Move example:
- Steer BP passer → Alexia (first turn lightning/dark boost MAX overall).
- Wipe out the remaining enemies with the hero arrow. 2 turn kill guaranteed.
technique
- Speed adjustment: Place a passer behind a fast character.
- Detecting Weaknesses: Immediately grasp them with Alexia Scholar.
- Break Priority: Attacks all weak points to instantly reduce the shield to 0.
This formation triples the turnover rate. As an alternative, it is also effective to earn Lucky Arrow JP at the same time as a merchant protagonist.
5. Tips for encounter rate optimization and cursor settings
- Equipment: Ribbon of Attraction (Cragspear Slums NPC). One ability is enough without duplication.
- Setting: Cursor memory ON (high-speed menu selection). Increased encounters will increase the battle frequency by 1.5 times.
- Note: Duplication is disabled, so please save your slots.
This will maximize the number of battles per hour.
6. Detailed guide to recommended spots in the beginning, middle, and after the ship
The spot selection criteria is uniformity of weaknesses, high turnover rate, and appearance of catlin.
Early stage (Lv1-15): West Valore Forest Road (Danger level 23)
- Feature: Catlin appears (EXP1000+, JP150). Sword/dagger/axe/staff weakness.
- Strategy: Uses a lot of spirit stones and has a high escape rate, so it will break immediately. If you use grape juice together, you will instantly reach Lv15.
Middle stage (Lv15-30): Valore West Road/In front of Flame Grace
- Features: Many weaknesses to lightning/darkness/bow. Small fish EXP is stable.
- Advantage: Material recovery can be done in parallel.
After the ship (Lv30+): Danger level 55 island
- Features: Lightning/Darkness/Bow weakness concentration. Alexia + main character is a perfect match.
- Access: Go directly after acquiring the ship. Catlin has a low probability, but has the highest turnover rate.
| spot | Recommended level | EXP/war | Special notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| West Valore Forest Road | 10+ | 1000(cat) | I'm aiming for rare |
| Valore West | 15+ | 200+ | It is stable |
| 55 islands | 30+ | 300+ | It is the most efficient |
7. Double your efficiency with cooking boosts and additional tips
- Grape juice: EXP +25%, 20 turns. Created by Fen (Wishvale Tavern). Always use it before battle.
- Tips:
- JP Earnings: Merchant Lucky Arrow (Damage Proportional).
- Avoid excessive leveling: Please parallel the story.
- Save utilization: Auto save and load before Catlin.
8. Summary: This method is the fastest way to clear all contents of Octra 0
By optimizing the rotation rate x magnification, Octra 0's leveling will be dramatically streamlined. Please give top priority to brooches of happiness, secrets, training centers, and statues, and make it a routine to go around the 55 islands with Alexia as your main group. It is possible to reach level 20 in the beginning and level 50 in the middle in 1/2 hour. You can enjoy 100 hours of volume stress-free. Please practice and build the strongest party.
