Title: CV:PoR Best places to farm mastery.
Post by: Grim_Creeper on March 04, 2011, 11:09:04 PM
I need to farm mastery of the Axe, Shuriken, Kunimitsu, Dart, Discus, and Rocket Slash.

I have already mastered the Steel Ball, Grenade, Stonewall, Defensive Form, Rampage, Taunt, Knee Strike, Offensive Form, Bible, Ricochet Rock, Bwaka Knife, Yagyu Shuriken, Holy water, Javelin, Knife, and Boomerang.

The party is level 51.

I am standing in the Master's keep teleportation spot that is immediately before the fight with the boss of that level.

Where should I go to farm mastery of the things I need to farm mastery of?

And by 'Farm Mastery' I mean the process of sub-weapon killing to gain the necessary points and doing so over and over again.

I think there is a place on 13th Street with lots of zombie spawns. I think I used places in 13th Street a lot for farming.
But it's been years since I last played PoR.

Turning in another direction, has Aliorumnus ever featured as a stand alone character rather than a spawning enemy? I mean, it seems weird to me that a ghost thats supposed to be one specific person would spawn like the groups do.

If she hasn't, maybe she should.

Anyway, I just got mastery of the Kunai. Thanks for telling me about 13th street though, I had forgotten that there was a spawn ground there. Isn't that one a swarm spawning room? Like you go in and theres a bunch already there?

Edit: Aliorumnus is not a proper name as I initially thought. Its in the Old Scandinavian family of languages and means 'Hel-running-traveler'. The implication here being necromancy.

No I think they're just witches named after the person, just like how there are multiple Cthulhu running amok in SoTN.

I just beated SotN now in English.

I was like wtf, when Cthulu was some other enemy, and the actual Cthulu look-alike was named Malachi.

Konami, get your stuff straightened out! X(

Yes I too was annoyed by that. I just got a really good idea.

Anyway how does Charlotte gain mastery? Or does she? Her spells don't have numbers or anything beside them in the menus.

Nest of Evil. It is where I mastered ALL (almost) of my subweapons.

if I remember well she doesnt, her spells can hit harder if you hold the up bottom until the magic bar loads completly twice

There's a room near the end of the Dark Academy with a bunch of spawning imps, and it's two rooms away from a save point.  It's pretty easy to toss your subweapon in there a bunch of times and then head to the save point to refill your magic.

I used to use the Mummy rooms in the Sandy Grave to level up my subweapons early on in the game.  I mastered the Cream Pie, for maximum Psychological Damage.

I go back and forth between the rooms containing El-Giza and the Zombie dragon. not only do I build up my sub-weapons but i also gain good XP, collect the stuff that they drop, sell that stuff and buy whatever I want from the shop, etc. By the time I'm done, I'm around level 60 or so and all items in the shop prior to the fight with the Lecard's daughters, is all bought out.

I found that the best place for mastery farming is the 'Dead crusader' room nearest to the Sisters fight. The one below the warp zone/save room and the 'white spooky barrier' room. Also theres a final guard near it too.
