It’s no secret that battles Triangle Strategy can get a little grindy. Your army will rarely be at the recommended level to take on the next stage if you don’t grind. What’s worse: there is no EXP sharing mechanic in the game. If your unit doesn’t attack or retires early into the battle, they won’t gain EXP.
The only way you can grind outside of the main chapter stages is by enteringMental Mock Battlesat the Tavern in your encampment.
Whenever a new chapter unlocks, so does a new Mental Mock Battle stage. Its recommended level will often be one number below the main chapter’s. Units gainmore EXPthe higher the battle’srecommended levelis compared to theircurrent level. For example, if a level 12 unit uses a skill in a level 23 stage, they’ll gain 100 EXP. Even if they die in battle, they keep the EXP.
In fact, even if youlose, you keep the EXP. Conversely, growth slows down when the unit’s level is on par with (or higher than) the stage’s recommended level.
Moreover, if you want to grind in the chapter battle since its recommended level is higher, you can. Mental Mock Battles are just more time efficient since there’s no dialogue and there are usually more enemies. Some stages even have smaller maps, which are faster to navigate.
