↖ Junior Nutis: The Best XP-to-Loot Ratio Right Now

108 → 120 took ~10 hours. That's with a full party and Holy Symbol running. Solo, expect double.

Loot check after 12 levels:

Bottom line: Nutis isn't a meso farm. It's a mat farm for your next weapon. Treat it that way.

↖ Job 4: Skip the Boss Fight

Standard route: kill Manon and Griffin for a Heroic Star + Pentagon. Painful at level 120.

Better route: Buy a Secret Spell Scroll at EOS Tower floor 44 (10M mesos) and hand it to Chief Tatamo in Leafre. Same result, zero boss risk.

If you're passing through EOS anyway, grab the scroll early. Don't wait until you're standing in front of the instructor.

↖ Crafting the Weapon: Mats, Stats, Reality

Need: base weapon (we used Red Craven, 53 atk) + ~20 Dragon Scales + ~20 Dragon Spirits.

No stimulator? You get average stats — 50 atk on the new claw. Lower than the Red Craven, but that's fine — it's a scroll platform, not a final product.

↖ Scroll Results (7x 60% scrolls)

4/7 landed. Final result: 58 atk, up from 53.

Math check: 60% × 7 ≈ 4.2 expected successes. 4/7 is average, not unlucky. Don't panic if your run looks similar.

This weapon is a bridge to the Level 120 Reverse Claw anyway — don't overinvest emotionally in a mid-tier scroll session.

↖ Skill Book Farming: Time Investment Per Book

Dark Wyverns > Brixtons for drop speed. If you're farming multiple books, start there.

↖ FAQ

↖ How fast is Junior Nutis for leveling 108-120?

~10 hours with a full party running Holy Symbol. Without it, expect significantly longer.

↖ Is the Secret Spell Scroll worth 10M mesos?

Yes — if fighting Manon and Griffin at 120 sounds risky. It removes the boss step entirely.

↖ What do I need to craft the level 110 claw?

A base weapon (Red Craven works), ~20 Dragon Scales, ~20 Dragon Spirits.

↖ Should I wait for a stimulator before crafting?

No. Stimulator drops are unreliable. Craft at average stats and scroll — don't stall progress.

↖ Which skill book should I farm first?

Shadow Shifter at Dark Wyverns — fastest drop time (~20 min) of the three.

↖ Takeaway

Nutis for mats. Scroll shortcut for Job 4. Average-stat weapon, scroll it anyway. That's the whole loop — thirty hours, one weapon, zero wasted detours.
