How to Auto Raise Faith with Fina

・This guide has been written by Hizagui in WOTV Discord.

・For the basics of bravery & faith, see Bravery & Faith guide.

It is possible to make a party with Fina for auto-repeat farming Faith, but it will depend from player to player and the units being raised.

To do this we need to understand how her Cheer ability and AI works:

Cheer raises MAG/ATK and FAITH for 3 turns, this means that your party needs to finish the battle before the buff runs out so that 25% of the buff effect is carried over permanently at the end of the battle.

How much Faith is raised depends on the ability level, an ability level of 12 is recommended, before that the Faith values are so low that you will not see a full point of faith being raised in the character stats menu after battle. However, Faith is being raised, but by small not visible values (50 to 50.4 Faith will still show 50 in the menu).

After that comes Fina’s AI, usually she will use Cheer on herself first, then on the rest of the party. This isn’t random, she will cast it on the first in range party member in the formation from left to right so pay attention to your formation positions before battle.

However, her AI changes if someone in the party has HATE, this change her entire behaviour and target the unit with Hate FIRST. This makes it much easier to auto-repeat, equip a vision card like Vow of love and now you can put units in whatever position you like and as long as Fina gets a turn, she will cast Cheer on the character you chose to put Hate on.

1. Make a faith farming party with Fina (must complete battle within 3 turns)
   
   
2. (Optional) Equip Hate Vision Card on the unit you want to raise faith
   
   
3. Test the map (auto once and make sure Fina is casting Cheer and battle is ending in 3 turns)
   a. If this isn’t happening go back to step 1 and play around with your party.
   
   
4. Put it on auto-repeat, enjoy.

1. Do not forget to level Fina’s Cheer, you will get a lot of JP on her with this method, the more you level that skill, the faster you raise faith.
   
   
2. Choose a fast map, Chapter 1 Section 3 Battle 3: False Accusations for example but be careful because AOE units like Mediena can one shot the map so place her in a position where that only happens in the second turn.
   
   
3. Optimally, you want Fina's AGI to be the highest. You can AGI tune by equipping AGI increasing gears on Fina, and unequip all gears and esper on your other chars. Use Metal Daemon, Iron Giant and/or Secret Orders to help fine tune the AGI.
   
   
4. Don’t be afraid to have big party, with HATE you will get consistent first turn results so play around with the formation.
   
   
5. Remember that even if you don’t have a HATE card you can still do it, you just have some formation restrictions and might need a longer slower battle.
   
   
6. You might need to check the game once in a while in case the game crashes due to the game's instability.

If you are raising a unit that you also put in the guild barracks, then you'll need to increase the faith to 70, which is the highest it can go. If it's set to 50 (which is the default), then your faith will gradually decrease per hour until it goes to 50, essentially erasing all of your faith farm progress.

Part 1 Chapter 1 Section 3 Battle 3: False Accusations

• Fast for raising just 1 unit.

Part 1 Chapter 4 Scene 2 Battle 7: A Dance of Blades and Blood

• Enemies are somewhat spread out, which can make it easier to raise 2 units.

Feel free to post in the comments any map that can be good for faith farming.
