Tired of the old Final Fantasy XV AP grind? One enterprising YouTuber has posted a guide for how to farm over 500 AP in 15 minutes using new items from Final Fantasy 15 update 1.03.
You’ll need:
Blitzer’s Fanfare
Warrior’s Fanfare
Armiger Accelerator
You’ll also need this Ascension node already unlocked:
Armiger Action
Follow these steps:
Go to the Three Valleys with the Shield of the Just


Summon monsters
Wait for battle mode to be activated before killing them (if you wait too long your party will kill the dogs and you’ll lose AP from warp-strikes)
Activate Armiger for +1 AP (don’t do it while a monster is still alive, you’ll deplete armiger bar and waste time. Best moment to activate Armiger is before the health bar of the last monster is half-empty. You’ll get +1 AP for activating it and Armiger bar will practically be untouched)
You’ll get +3 AP from an A+ in Timing and Offense thanks to the fanfares
As soon as you see the +3 AP, summon a new pack of monsters
If you wait too long you won’t be able to summon another pack until after the Report Card finishes handing out XP
Here’s a video explaining the process:
