 ===== Intermediate level: Kamikazee =====
-[UNFINISHED]
+==== Pros ====
+  * <span redtext>Stats don't play a factor at all, so you can take on any job.</span>
+  * <span redtext>The only requirement is that you learn Kamikazee as a Merchant, so preparation is easy once you're a little familiar with the game.</span>
+==== Cons ====
+  * <span bluetext>The number of quests required to level up is ridiculously high.</span>
+  * <span bluetext>The character's stats are poor and they have few skills available since the game assumes repeated job changes at Lvl 20.</span>
+Learn Kamikazee as a Merchant and simply use Kamikazee at the start of the quest.\\
+Assuming that two enemies appear on average when playing solo, we can calculate the expected value from the instant-kill rate of Kamikazee.\\
+You can earn an average of 120 Exp per run in [[strategy:dark_world|Dark World]], and an average of 200 Exp per run in the [[strongest_champion|Strongest Champion]] [[challenge|challenge]].
+Since you need 3610 Exp to reach Lvl 20, to change jobs you'll need to do Dark World about 31 times, or Strongest Champion around 19 times.\\
+If you try to level up this way, you can't really do anything else, which might be a little lonely.\\
+Well, if you get a bonus that increases the number of enemies and then use Kamikazee in Dark World, it'll probably be more efficient...\\
+It remains to be seen whether or not that's more consistent than Strongest Champion.
+If you have the ElevatingShoes, even Strongest Champion will net you +10% Exp.\\
+Could it be that Kamikazee might be the easiest way to reap this benefit?
+It's also a good idea to leverage your Merchant status and party up with others as a treasure hunter to earn items.\\
+If you're lucky enough to get CelestialReins as a reward, you can reach the maximum level and earn SP more easily.
 ===== Advanced level: Arithmatician =====
-[UNFINISHED]
+==== Pros ====
+  * <span redtext>Incredible metal-hunting ability.</span>
+  * <span redtext>While it's likely to be a case of changing jobs early, you might be able to progress further if you work hard.</span>
+==== Cons ====
+  * <span bluetext>Obtaining the required ScholarsSpecs to become an Arithmetician is a tough challenge.</span>
+  * <span bluetext>Specialized knowledge is required.</span>
+  * <span bluetext>Compare to other methods, luck plays a very strong role.</span>
+This method involves using Arithmatician's xDeath skill to hunt down all the LiquidMetalKing and MetalKingSlime in [[tower_of_the_sorcerer|Tower of the Sorcerer]].\\
+Tower of the Sorcerer has a fairly high encounter rate for both, and defeating just one MetalKingSlime will take you from Lvl 1 to Lvl 21.
+If you change jobs early, you might run out of MP during battle, so you should be a little careful.\\
+Having the HappyHat item will gradually restore your MP when you act, increasing your endurance.\\
+However, this method is even more difficult to obtain than ScholarsSpecs, and is probably only possible for advanced players.
+Also, if there are any players who can make use of their incredible metal-hunting abilities, they can be sent to [[madame_garden|Madame Garden]] for hunting.\\
+If you go into Tower of the Sorcerer with ordinary players, you can even provide training support.\\
+However, since this requires specialized arithmetic knowledge, it's difficult to use effectively without the necessary teaching skills and MP management ability.
+If you frequently find yourself exhausting your MP, it'd be a good idea to review the [[mpx_method|MPx method]].
 ===== Advanced level: Morph =====
-[UNFINISHED]
+==== Pros ====
+  * <span redtext>If you have a friend who's reached the level cap, you can easily go to Dark World.</span>
+  * <span redtext>Since you'll be using various jobs from different players, the player gains Exp particularly well.</span>
+  * <span redtext>Depending on the MP growth rate, you can easily adapt to both early job changes and high-level job changes.</span>
+==== Cons ====
+  * <span bluetext>Coordinating with other players is nearly always required, and sometimes equipment is required. If nobody is available, it's practically a given that you'll have to change jobs early.</span>
+  * <span bluetext>You need to secure 50 or more MP after changing jobs.</span>
+Coordinate beforehand and use Morph on an ally who has reached the level cap.\\
+<span redtext>The stat increases that occur when leveling up exceed the maximum limit, but only during quests.\\
+In other words, if your maximum HP exceeds 1000, abnormal status attacks become ineffective. If you maintain your current HP above 1000, even instant-kill attacks become ineffective.</span>\\
+This means that you can pretend to be a party member while possessing skills that are truly monstrous and depraved.\\
+Use your full power to defeat Satan, collect great treasure, and level up!\\
+By the way, if you're able to, I think you should go higher and higher, no just to Dark World.
+For solo play, the Strongest Champion challenge is recommended.\\
+It's also satisfying to be able to experience a boss-only job that you can't normally choose in the game.\\
+However, in any case, you have to wait for a hit, and it's relatively difficult to get into a rhythm, so the efficiency is only average.\\
+Provided below is information about the enemies, so use your Morph ability to target the appropriate enemy and have fun.
+==== Recommendation level: 0 ===
+I don't recommend using Morph on these at all.
+^  Name  ^  Job  ^  Notes  ^
+|PhantomFencer|Swordsman| |
+|DevilScallop|Priest| |
+|MageOfDarkness|LiquidMetalSlime|MagicBurst is weak due to insufficient MP.|
+==== Recommendation level: ★ ===
+There's a possibility you won't be able to clear even the floor you used Morph on.
+^  Name  ^  Job  ^  Notes  ^
+|TreeFace|Merchant|I recommend using Kamikazee immediately.|
+|Golem|Geomancer|While Kacrack is available, there's a possibility that it won't be enough to get by.|
+|Gigantes|Berserker|There's the Frenzy skill, but using it will almost completely drain your MP.|
+|Bomber|SelfDestruct/Gadabout|I recommend using Kamikazee immediately.|
+==== Recommendation level: ★★ ===
+It's best to leave on the floor that you used Morph.
+^  Name  ^  Job  ^  Notes  ^
+|Firebird|Ninja/Geomancer|Repeatedly use Kacrack.|
+|Behemoth|Dragoon/Monk|The job is good, but you don't have any MP.|
+|Dragonlord|Dragon/Monk|The damage output of DoubleUp is mediocre, and the MP cost is low.|
+==== Recommendation level: ★★★ ===
+Keep battling until you die.
+^  Name  ^  Job  ^  Notes  ^
+|KingSlime|Berserker|Infinite Frenzy - almost unstoppable until the probability of hitting yourself (25%) is reached.|
+|SkeletonSoldier|Armamentalist/Swordsman|FalconSlash or Oomph → LightningSlash|
+|Diablos|ExtremeAttackType|Oath→Multifists, DarkArtsSword - surprisingly, it's base Attack is low. |
+==== Recommendation level: ★★★★ ===
+<span redtext>OneWingedAngel</span>\\
+Basically, using BubbleBomb→JetBlackFlame will obliterate most enemies.\\
+Ultima is more powerful, but it consumes more MP and you need to be careful of MagicReflect. By the way, JetBlackFlame is a breath attack.\\
+If there's a dangerous enemy in front of you who's building up tension, I'd pray that DarkMeteor will concentrate it's fire on it.\\
+BloodRayne deals 200 damage while also restoring 200 HP to you; use it whenever you have the opportunity to heal yourself a little.\\
+In short, if you successfully use the Morph ability here, you'll become practically invincible.
 ===== Advanced level: CoinToss =====
-[UNFINISHED]
+==== Pros ====
-===== Advanced level: After 3610+ job changes, suicide  =====
+  * <span redtext>Leveling is stable and efficient, resulting in less frustration.</span>
+  * <span redtext>MP growth rate doesn't matter, even E is fine.</span>
-[UNFINISHED]
+==== Cons ====
+  * <span bluetext>Requires sufficient money to use CoinToss.</span>
+  * <span bluetext>Power is limited to [[strategy:faerie_forest]]</span>
+  * <span bluetext>Fatigue accumulates quickly.</span>
+This method involves repeatedly using Samurai's CoinToss in locations like [[strategy:faerie_forest]].\\
+You can repeatedly use a 180-damage attack with 0 MP cost.
+Fatigue accumulates quickly, but if you consider the several minutes spent sleeping as a break period, you might not get too frustrated. This may depend on your nature, however.
+One distinction with this method compared to the Mime and Arithmetician methods are that those ones require MP.\\
+That is to say, in this method, <span redtext>you don't need to spend SP to get MP</span>. This is a big advantage.
+On the other hand, this method rapidly depletes your money.\\
+Because of this, equipping the GoldenChicken item might be better than the ElevatingShoes.\\
+GoldenChicken gives you around 50 G per action, which isn't enough, but it's a great help.\\
+Since it's still not enough, you'll have to get money from elsewhere.\\
+If it's a long battle to accumulate SP and reach the level cap, you might spend around 200,000 G if you earn money through GoldenChicken.
+----
+At this stage, among the four methods introduced on this page, this one might be the easiest for leeching (easier to level up with a party).\\
+The other three methods assume you'll be going to high-difficulty quest locations, and the Merchant method also has a slight limitation: you can't go to [[StrongestChampion]] with a party.\\
+However, since this game has a small player population, it's not a huge advantage. Very sad.
+===== Advanced level: Get the 3610+ Exp needed for job change, then suicide.  =====
+  - Confuse your allies by using @Call along the way; if successful, a weak enemy in [[strategy:wild_hunting_trail|Wild Hunting Trail]] will use Confuse, allowing your allies to kill your character with the @Attack command. Alternatively, have the summoned monster in a Parry state succesfully parry your attack and self-destruct. Counterattacks are ineffective. All allies present will receive Exp equal to the number of job changes of the character who died. A job change is possible in as little as 2-3 minutes per attempt.
+  - It's also fun to hunt and enjoy (mutual) leveling in the [[arena|@Arena]].
 ===== Time attack =====
-[UNFINISHED]
+I performed a time trial to see how long it would take to change job for the four jobs mentioned above (Merchant, Arithmetician, Mime, and Samurai).\\
+Changed job at Lvl 20, all solo. Hope this helps.
