Tip: Here is some way to get easy items.
1. Have Quetzacoatl learn the Card Mod ability (80 AP) so you can
change card into items.
2. You can also make Bahamut learn the Rare Item ability (250 AP).
It’ll take some time but it’s very useful to get good items.
3. The easiest way to get items is to have Diablo or Bahamut learn
Mug (200 AP). Mug allows you to steal item instead of kill the monster.
