Guide & Notes
----------------------------
Like last season, this is a faster, easier and more consistent way to grind than using the towers due to the fact that the opponents have less health, there's no modifiers and the opponents will never change or get any harder. While the per-stage rewards might seem low due to the lack of Victory XP after beating it for the first time, the fact that the stage never changes and can be beaten in less than a minute means that the long-term gains are better than other methods.
Having said that, there is one exception: If you can find an hourly tower with easy modifiers and no spongy opponents (specifically Nitara, Reiko, Geras and Havik), you can make more XP per time spent than this method due to the additional tower completion rewards, but you still need to use the Invincible relic for guaranteed flawless victories and end every fight with a brutality. Otherwise, due to the extra time it takes to climb the tower, it ends up being roughly the same if not worse than this method. So without further ado, here's how to get started:
Start by beating the final invasion boss in order to get your hands on the key item needed to break the special acid barriers found on each map. You'll need to get past those barriers to get the Invincible relic.
After beating the final invasion boss (or even before if you prefer), take a moment to reset your stat points by purchasing a White Enenra Core from the vendor at the Wu Shi Academy map. Make sure that your character has 15 points in Special and 25 points in Health because you'll need that to equip the Invincible relic. Put the rest of your stat points into Attack in order to make upcoming fights a lot easier.
Next, get the Invincible relic by going back to the Fire Temple map and finding either of the acid barriers (they both lead to the same place). Use the key item you got from the invasion boss to break the barrier, then follow the path until you find a locked treasure chest that doesn't require any klues to access, right above the Frosty stage. Open the chest to get the Invincible relic.
As a quick note, the relic works by making all damage go to your meter instead of your health bar, and as long as you're in critical health (1% health remaining) your meter will recharge almost instantly. This makes you pretty much invincible and as long as no health is ever taken from your health bar, it still counts as a flawless victory if you win. This means that you'll pretty much always get the flawless victory bonus rewards at the end of a fight, which we'll be taking advantage of with the endurance stage.
The talisman that you use for this method doesn't matter because you should be doing enough damage with your physical attacks alone to finish off these enemies very quickly. With the Invincible relic equipped you also don't need to worry about taking any damage, so just use whatever regular kombos you're comfortable with.
From there, I'd suggest that you complete any remaining invasion mode stages that you've yet to clear as most of them will give you a pretty substantial victory XP reward the first time you beat them. Having the Invincible relic equipped will make any remaining stages a lot easier, so this is a fast and easy way to grind out a good amount of XP for your fighters and kameos.
Now you can to go to the Flesh Pits mesa. Follow the path I took in the video (from the portal at the end of the map, not the beginning) to find the endurance stage. You'll probably hit an acid barrier if you haven't already unlocked it, so go ahead and use the key item you got from beating the final invasion boss to unlock it and access the area with the endurance stage. Make sure you have the Invincible relic equipped for guaranteed flawless victories and be sure to end the match with a brutality to get as much bonus XP as possible per match.
While you won't be getting any fighter or kameo Victory XP after beating the stage for the first time, you will continue to get bonus XP for flawless victories and brutalities. Using this method, you can get 645 Profile XP, 350 Fighter XP, 170 Kameo XP, 400 Koins, 300 Seasonal Kredits and 150 Krowns in less than a minute without having to worry about the stage getting harder on the next attempt. Thanks so much for watching!
