In addition to the usual grind of monsters in the starting zones and completing main and side quests, check out some of the other ways below to level up your characters quickly in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Leveling up in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Through Battles
Grind the Elite Mobs
In the starting zones, you will notice monsters that have blue marks around their level mark. These opponents can be a more serious challenge even if they are the same level as your party. However, if you manage to defeat them without any of your characters dying, you will get the following bonus, which helps a lot in speeding up the leveling process:
- 250% more Experience Points.
- 300% more Class Points.
- 350% more Gold earned.
Farm the Unique Monsters
Unique monsters are like world bosses in Xenoblade’s world, and killing them will award you with a lot of experience points. This tactic may not be the most ideal for complete beginners because these opponents will wipe you out very easily, but when you strengthen your party a little and return to one of the previous zones later, you can try to down one of them. When you defeat a unique monster at the place where it fell, a gravestone will appear, and if you interact with it, you can refight the unique monster and collect the big bonus again.

Discovering Landmarks and Points of Interest
Each time you discover a new zone, or find a landmark or point of interest in the world, you earn bonus Experience Points that can be used at Rest Spots. The ability to increase a level on the Rest Spot will become available once you have enough bonus Experience Points for a full level up.
Leveling up in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 by collecting stuff
Gathering collectibles in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 also brings additional experience. The collectible hunt is neatly organized through Collectopaedia Cards that is unlocked somewhere around the beginning of Chapter 2. On these cards that you collect from NPCs, there will be lists of items that you need to grab in order to complete the Collectapedia card and get a bonus.
These are just some of the alternative ways to earn extra EXP that can help you level up faster in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, so go level up and have fun!
