Step 3: Recruit Elrond for Multipliers

🧠 Why Elrond?

Elrond’s Treasure Smell skill can multiply XP or JP earned by 2x, 10x, or even 100x.

2. Recruit using:

   • Agnea (low success rate)
   • Temenos (requires level 80)

Step 4: Choose the Right Farming Locations

🔥 High-Level Areas (Level 45+)

• Infernal Abyss

🔁 General Setup
