On the bright side, as of Ch.5 it is super easy to farm JP. I just go to Grapp Keep, have everyone set Holy Magic and Spellcraft (need to have up to Blast). I spam Blessing Blast on mobs there, a Chain 3 will get me like 20k pg, a bunch of EXP (I actually turned it off so I don't hit level 99 while I level jobs), and 999 JP. Without JP Boost or Growth Egg, I might add, neither of which surpass that cap (in the last game, JP Boost surpassed because it added 10% extra to your gain despite the 999 listing, so you'd get 1098 instead of 999).

At this point I'm just leveling niche jobs here and there to play around with a few things. Gotta say I'm loving having a Thief finally. Went after it the moment I hit Ch.5, first thing. xD

Oh there's loads of them most of them got a chuckle out of me then a facepalm. Worst two are from the Valkyrie and Monk quest. Even Yew's dad has a dodgy name when they pronounce it during the Yokai quest.

I can't speak for Chapter 4, because I didn't start hardcore grinding until Chapter 5. Chaining works about as well as usual. As for the Chapter 4 question:

Super Stupid easy way to grind GP / JP / XP reguardless of the jobs.

Grapp Keep, both before and after NG+

Have Spellcraft and Good Measure set on every character with Holy Magic as the support job.

Vivify x2 + Mist = deals 100% max HP to all undead.

One person can have More Money set instead of Good Measure, in which case they would do

Vivify + Mist = deals 50% max HP to all undead
Vivify + Mist = deals 50% max HP to all undead

This works regardless of level or any stat the character has. Each character will full clear an entire screen of monsters, so without any brave procs you can do four and get 999JP and a ***ton of money / XP.

There's also the catmancer sub ability that doesn't allow enemies to get the first strike.

Since this has taken off as a megathread, I figured I'd sticky and rename the thread to reflect this.
