Ah, I see. So not as tedious as it sounds. Something that is kinda tedious that I'm doing right now is trying to get higher level treasure maps in Dragon Quest 9. There is a boss at the end of each grotto that gives a treasure map. What you get is semi-random. At least I can level up in some of the other classes. Speaking of which, getting all the passive bonuses has been really useful. All of my characters hit like trucks and don't take much damage from the majority of enemies. Some of those grotto bosses have become mere nuisances.
