This game is so busted and I'm loving it.
I'm about 16 hours in, and heading to Loftus Tower. I'm still early, but just taking a while since grinding up my skills and such is a lot of fun. The amount of options this game gives your is absurd. I thought there was a lot in Asdivine Cross, which was the first Kemco game I had played, but the way this game is set up makes it feel like every character is Lucille (potentially). Lita for one is an absolute monster in my playthrough. She lays down numbers like mad with her INT skills, and pairing her with Toril gave me access to a bunch of nice unison skills.
Speaking of Unisons skills, EXE was VERY liberal with giving those out in the early game. As soon as Toril showed up with the buddies in tow, I noticed unisons were available before the game even mentioned them in tutorials. It's like the game was made for people who are already well aware and familiar with Asdivine-style RPGs, and I do not fault them for this. This game has me wanting to go on a min-maxing frenzy, to see just how much absurdity this system will allows. The magic system alone is insane enough to make your party nearly invulnerable.
That does bring me to one thing about the game thus far: It's easy. I have it on hard right now, and I can count on one finger the amount of times I've had to use a healing skill (Which is also busted thanks to unisons with buddies). After a what I thought would be a light amount of grinding, I found my party one-shotting enemies left and right, and the bosses only accomplished mildly annoying my crew. I did lose one party member to a sudden strong attack from the Skeleton Dragon enemies. Those guys can attack twice, and have some very nasty skills that will put decent numbers on my party, and can give them all pretty bad status effects in one wave. Too bad for them, that I can delay their turn so hard that they're already defeated before they can get a move out.
There are other things that blow my mind about this game too: Having all the ring slots available is absurdly convenient, as is the full secret house (Premium version here). The Curio is meant to be a nice QoL feature, but it makes the game even easier to utterly shatter, as well as being a convenient spot to grind up gems (which is much easier than expected, lab key here I come!). The ever present weapons upgrading and the Gacha shop makes in-game shops obsolete since grinding tickets is also shockingly easy, even more so since I've rarely had to use an item only a handful of time thus far. It's a blast grinding through this one, and I'm glad I bought it.

True. If you don't have anything from IAP it takes a while to beat next bosses and enemies easily but it's fun as well trying to beat bosses as early as possible without using seeds at all. Seeds should be used only post-game if you want a challenge from bosses. One-shotting each boss makes you think you are unstoppable until you end up in an area that requires either grinding or careful skill usage.

Yes, i dont purchase anything from IAP. Coz my gem only 2 digit 
. I though to collect it 1st & spend it on extra secret house or acc slot. Maybe you can give me tips about priority for spending gem on early game?
The Normal enemies that i encountered is so easy so far, so i though the boss shouldn't be that hard. But after i level up a bit i can beat this boss now. I still keep all harvested fruits. I though i use it when i stuck at really big wall.

Tips: Level Up skills (most notably spells because they're awesome.) You'll want to get them to max level for post-game [the only boss I couldn't beat post-game (only made the party up to around 1000 in stats for all dungeons to have the challenge on Expert) was (hidden in spoiler below)]. Weapon Skills are also useful (Turn delaying ones).
Remember that the Arena special rewards require to be at levels that without using seeds make battles very tough so for these rewards you will want to set game difficulty to Easy. But after claiming reward you should do it again on Expert. (My feeling was different because I already had maxed out skills and magic that the characters had unlocked thanks to 3x skill ring+ 3 Skill Orbs I got. That made all skills get a couple of levels after each fight WITHOUT using them (skill Ring gives +1 point to each skill and magic after battle ) All of that is completely optional.]
Other notes: Check all areas using Treasure searcher item before going in if you want to know how much treasures are there. I got a treasure bug or something because one area was cleared while getting all treasures but game still says there are more.
Other stuff : Gold is useful. Don't let anyone lie to you. It helps post-game to max out weapon level by buying best stuff from store then improving the weapon using it. 50 of the best weapon in store gives 5-6 level ups for weapon which requires 999 xp to next level. This is good if you can get lots of money in Gold Region each fight.

Oh i see. There is a neat way to level up skills & magics. So skill ring/orb take priority.
Yes, battle arena is so frustrating in expert mode when the special reward is available. I'm really struggling in silver cup easy round. Maybe i take your suggestion to change the level in order to get the special rewards.
Myself though gold is useless. Because we can get a better weapon by combining. I only use my gold for buying armor & resurrection snack. I never though there is a wise way to spend my gold. Thanks for your advice.

I did say that gold isn't extremely useful but it doesn't mean it's worthless to buy anything from normal shops. But you will get better equipment from :
Treasure Chests - that isn't the most efficient way to get equipment but all best equipment is in treasure chests (notably post-game dungeons).
Drops/steals - best way to level up post-game equipment, however you'll get bored with it just like me.
IAP Lottery or tickets - that's the worst way unless you are ready to spend tons of money. Tried it ten times, no good equipment at all from it. However, unique buddy Rings are worth trying. Got only one but it's awesome due to fact that I can use Unisons without need to have elemental Rings that make spells possible to cast.
