EXP Camps
New Horizon specific camps are marked with .
Notes: Monsters on Horizon may have levels that differ from that of retail, be wary when using exp camp guides outside of this wiki as they may not be the same level. Era+ monsters that raise defense raise both P.Def and M.Def at start of the battle, and will lose their defenses if your party coordinates a skill chain + magic burst.
These camps are all aimed at 6 member parties.
Update 4/26 : 10-20, 20-30, Merit, Cure Burn, Completed*. Mobile Friendly.
