Dokapon the World/Strategies

==General==
In this game, MG seems to be far more important than in any other game, so it's now the priority of upgrading (priority for stats: MG>SP>HP>AT>DF). Since you don't get to choose which parameters to upgrade, this means that you should try to master jobs that focus on MG early on.
Best starting jobs are Free (if you can have that; the small inventory doesn't hurt as much in the beginning, and it provides boosts for all stats), Magician, and then Thief (who makes up for good speed to dodge field magic)
In general, female is slightly better than male, due to having access to powerful jobs like Dancer (Mainly with Charm, which never seems to fail) and Shaman (a much better Necromancer). Other jobs are not bad either, and overall they focus more on SP and MG than male.
==Full Gallery Collection==
Collecting equipments that drop by monsters is mostly easy in this game, as you can use the Thief's steal skill; you don't even have to defeat the likes of Sermon and Key to get them. The exception are be the Wiwi equipments since it can also drop various items and field magic, or nothing instead. The hardest equipments to get are the Devilerman equipments and the ? treasure box equipments; the former can't be obtained by killing the Devilerman and you must use Mix-up and Mystery and hope that the equipment is swapped (and their gallery entry will not show up until you actually get your hand on the equipments), the latter is just luck-based
The only job that's honestly frustrating to get is ET because of the rarity of the alien event. For jobs that are not gender exclusive, just seeing it with either gender and both entries will be unlocked.
==How to counter the "Resign" event==
Without a doubt the worst weekly event in the entire game (both the most destructive and...well). The event forces everyone to lose their jobs and all of their items and field magic, besides bad items, only "mercifully" keep all of their gold. Since World have the upcoming events seeded like Kingdom, this means that you have no luck trying to avoid the event if you saved just at the end of the week.
*If you are playing the game yourself, back up the game every now and then and don't just use the save at the end of the week; also try to save the game in the middle of a week. If the event happens, load the save in the middle of the week and do something different.
*Throw your controller and the game disc away when you are carrying keys and have almost reached that locked treasure box containing that equipment, and don't have any save files backed up. It may not be more difficult than Chevailer in Kingdom but still not worth your trouble
*If your Free job isn't mastered, it's not entirely a bad thing; you can try to master it here.
*If it is (which is most likely the case), then go to the job center ASAP. Depending on your level, you may or may not be in an area where enemies will provide a lot of EXP for you to level up. If they are weak and the EXP is irrelevant, you can just kill them as normal; if they are as strong as you, use battle skill to escape and avoid terrain spaces as much as possible. Alternatively, if you don't have a lot of cash to begin with, have got a piggy bank and saved it, or just don't care about it, you can just make yourself die and respawn. This should put you back in the castle or church which should be near a job center. Then, rush to the nearest item shop to fill yourself with spinners and crystals and you should be ready to start bouncing back.
