I'll be adding an extra section for those who wants to grind Lily Ranks.
Before I begin, I just want to mention that the MAX Lily Rank is 10.
As I have mentioned earlier, there are 2 plans which will make grinding much easier.
These 2 plans are "Destroy Symbols" and "Symbol Attack Gains".
Destroy Symbols allows you to one-hit any monsters on the field without engaging a fight.
Symbol Attack Gains allows you to gain EXP, Credits and the spoils from the monsters when used in conjunction with Destroy Symbols.
These two must be activated together in order to fully utilize it.
(You can gain levels, credits, or monster drops relatively fast using this method as well.)
Before that, you will need a Level 5 Red Chip named "Harem".
This chip allows you to gain Lily Rank at a much faster rate.
In order to get this chip, do the following steps:
Create the 'Item Change' plan for Iris Field.
[You will need 1 Soccer Ball which is dropped by Rabbit Balancers in Iris Field]
After activating the plan, it'll be in one of the gathering points.
You will only need one of this chip as Nepgear will only be the one who needs her Lily Rank raised.
Next, you will need a Blank Disc that is able to contain this Level 5 Red Chip.
(You can skip this step if you already have it.)
You will need to following:
Darkness 60 Add Dungeon Plan:
- 2 Horsebird Wing (Dropped by Horsebird Leader in Virtua Forest)
- 2 Grand Jelly (Dropped by Grandogoo in Virtua Forest)
Darkness 60 Change Dungeon Plan:
- 1 Magic Stone (Dropped by R4i-SDHC in Midcompany)
- 4 Purple Block (Dropped by Terits in Lowee Global Expo [East])
Once you have enabled Darkness 60 Change Dungeon Plan, you'll need to defeat this monster named "Epsilon". He is at the far end of the dungeon and he looks like a giant mecha with wings.
Make sure your level is adequate before fighting him, otherwise you can always use Symbol Destroy and Symbol Attack Gains. He will drop 1 "Large Medal I" which you must trade with ? NPC event in Planeptune. In return, he will give you a "Shock_108M_ROM" which has a Level 5 Red Chip slot in it.
Of course, there are many other methods as well, but this is one of the few methods that I have used. I will add more methods if there are requests for it.
Once you have "Harem" burned into the disc, equipped it on Nepgear and pair any one up with her. Main menu > Party > Coupling.
Grinding Lily Ranks 2/2
Next, we'll move on to Destroy Symbols and Symbol Attack Gains Plan.
Destroy Symbols Plan:
- 1 Large Pincer (Dropped by King Crab in Rebeat Resort)
- 2 Fish Skeleton (Dropped by Fish Zombie in Rebeat Resort)
Symbol Attack Gain Plan:
- 1 Disc Shard (Dropped by Disc in Gamindustri Graveyard)
- 1 Wood Shell (Dropped by Forest Turtle in Iris Field)
Symbol Attack Gain Plan is dropped by God of Woe in Gamindustri Graveyard with Add Enemies Plan. You will need the following plans:
Gamindustri Graveyard with Add Enemies Plan:
- 3 Disc Shard (Dropped by Disc in Gamindustri Graveyard)
- 3 Phantom Wing (Dropped by Fairyfly in Midcompany with Change Dungeon Plan)
- 3 Magical Stone (Dropped by Magic Stone in Lowee Global Expo [West] with Change Dungeon Plan)
*(Magic Stone is not visually seen on the field but it is usually together with High Heal Dogoos at the top center of the map or with Ice Golems in the west.)
Lowee Global Expo Change Dungeon Plan:
- 1 2WIN Stick (Dropped by CFW Brave in Chapter 3) [First battle with CFW Brave]
- 2 Phantom Wing (Dropped by Fairyfly in Midcompany with Change Dungeon Plan)
- 2 Bomb Fuse (Dropped by Bomb-omburari in Endless Zone)
*Lowee Global Expo Change Dungeon Plan is dropped by CFW Brave in Chapter 3 after the first battle with him.
Midcompany with Add Enemies Plan:
- 1 Shampuru Ear (Dropped by Crazy Buff Shampuru in Rebeat Resort with Add Enemies Plan)
- 2 Small Conductor (Dropped by Bit in Endless Zone)
- 3 Orange Jelly (Dropped by Red [Pink?] Dogoo in Midcompany)
Rebeat Resort with Add Enemies Plan:
- 1 Earth Ripper (Dropped by Fenrishlfr in Virtua Forest [Depths] OR Endless Zone)
- 2 Dot Antenna (Dropped by Pixelvader in Darkness 60)
[Darkness 60 Add Dungeon Plan is found above.]
- 2 Fungus's Spores (Dropped by Fungus in Virtua Forest [Depths])
Midcompany with Change Dungeon Plan:
- 1 Proxyon Play (Dropped by CFW Trick in Chapter 3) [First battle with CFW Trick]
- 2 Pachimon Circuit (Dropped by Killmochine in Midcompany with Add Enemies Plan)
- 2 Horsebird Tail (Dropped by Fat Horsebird in Atari Marsh Depths)
Midcompany with Change Dungeon Plan can be found in Atari Marsh (Depths).
It's in one of the treasure lying around in the dungeon. (Blue box hovering in the dungeon)
Every 10 battles now will give you 1 Lily Rank.
(With the 2 Plans activated and Harem chip equipped)
Additionally, you can view certain character events that will raise Nepgear's Lily Rank with them as well. However, the above method will be much faster.
