I only ever grind off of Dragon Hunting.

Yeah, I saw that in the guide, too. I've now run Dragon Hunting twice, first time was a 2-star (placed a healer in the wrong spot and the wizard murdered her ), second was a 3-star for 3600 gold! Which is great, because I have burned almost 70,000 gold on upgrading troops since I first started posting (I started at a good bit over 200,000 by selling a lot of gold armours and not having anything upgraded past 30).

I also managed to get the completion bonus for Retake the Castle somehow, so got a silver out of that without having to run it again. Off to run Dragon Hunting again!

Dragon hunting is actually very character exp inneficient since you can get one unit less total from the map. I'd recommend Flame Dragon once you're able to take it, or Remnant Vanquish 3. Those will give you the most units while still not taking the biggest toll on your gold (Return to Ruins is actually the most efficient, but it will drain your gold like a company going bankrupt).

That's good to know. I know I can do Dragon Hunting, I am probably going to stick with it for a while. What I've been doing with these maps is: Grind the map I know until I'm 1 run from leveling up. Use whatever charisma I have left to try the other maps out. If I win and level up, then great. I know how to beat that map now. If not, then it doesn't actually matter, as long as I save just enough charisma to go back and finish the map I know I can beat for a refresh.

It's been working pretty well so far. Today I had 130-odd charisma left when at 297xp to level up, so that gave me a lot of room to play around with Retake the Castle.

Edit: It kind of bugs me that the Dragon Hunting mission goes way down the list, though, instead of staying near the top. /me pokes it.

Yeah, Dragon Hunting definitely is the easier of them and while it does not give the same unit exp efficiency due to that one less drop per run, it IS the most rank exp efficient map in the game. I ran it for a fair while myself until i noticed it was very inneficient. It's still a decent map and it gives more gold as well.

You should be able to do Flame Dragon if you can do Dragon Hunting, though. It can be a bit "tricky" since the dragon actually circles around meaning it doesn't head for the goal at once. You have enough time to place out a soldier, the prince, a witch and then use the soldiers ability and place 2 more units before the dragon actually gets within shooting range (if you place the witch in the "middle" spot).

And i agree, why the heck does Dragon Hunting not stay at the top? -_-

Is Flame Dragon unlocked when you defeat Remnant Vanquish 3?
