Yes, I do believe it is Mirage. I have a terrible time remembering the name of places.

Anyhow, I focused on that area because you almost always fought a Giant Bird (Called BlckBtrfly or something,) you get a pretty good amount of AP and GP every fight (Which the GP is pretty important if you're still buying equipment like Haste Accessories) and the town is close to where you are (For Inn Access) and it has some nice (but expensive) items for sale if you're still collecting things.

You can fight RockStatue's as soon as you get to Val Castle, you don't have to wait until the basement's open, just run around near the locked door.

Another good place in World 2 is fighting DragonZombies in the Castle where the Sealed Weapons are, you can use the Control ability on it and have it attack itself. You get 1000GP, 2500EXP, and 5AP.

I used that place on World 2 during my second game to level up to something like level 40 (which is really high, considering I finished my first game on level 42) and I think I also mastered a few jobs there.

When I have 4 monks, their damage and counterattacks are unstoppable, and if all 4 of us kick, its almost as good as a nuke...Plus, I stopped buying weapons and just equip barefist when using other jobs...The "monk" job seems to be running circles around all my other jobs, and I just got the geomancer, ninja and trainer jobs.

Is the "monk' the best job in the game?

It matters in what terms. Each class has their strengths and weaknesses.

[CaptRory]

True, and when you consider that some classes can only use some weapons, and the "shortage" of "special" weaponry Spoiler: referring to the legendary weapons that you unlock during the game
its good to diversify until everyone is at 1,000,000% power when equipped with Bare or Mime jobs; at least when it comes to weapon using classes like Knight. Dragoon, and etc.

and as you all know. the final stages of the game are designed to let you master all of the classes pretty easily. and of course the magic urns.

unless your a perfectionist, you should only want to be on a high level or just have people who are good in a couple of job classes.

to beat the final boss i used,

one person with high health and summon.
another with summon and time magic.
and two with summon and white magic. magic is my best friend!

neo-X-death went down pretty easily after that. i'd lost a lot of times before on about level 43 or 42 and i was able to win by simply changing my job classes around so its really not neccasary to master them all unless going for harder bosses. in that case you may just want to master a few and go to bare job class so that everyone has high stats and good skills.
