How to grind levels in Fire Emblem Engage

Skirmishes

One of the best ways to level up your characters is to participate in Skirmishes. These appear throughout the map and offer an excellent way to beef up your characters before taking on some of the tougher Chapter stories as you dive further into the main story. Not only will you earn plenty of experience points for taking out the enemies in the many Skirmishes, but there are valuable resources awaiting you should you reach the end of an encounter.

The Arena

The Arena is another way to level up some of your characters in-between battles. Every time you complete a Chapter battle, Skirmish, or Training Battle on the map, return to Somniel, and The Arena will be available. You can participate in three practice fights between your characters, with the chosen character receiving the experience points. Should the character lose, they gain a modest amount of experience points, but if they win, they gain more experience. Unfortunately, these battles are random, so you don’t know if your character will win or lose.

Tower of Trials

The third method is participating in the Tower of Trials, namely the Temptest Trial, which unlocks after Chapter 11. Various maps appear at this location, where you and your party will take down back-to-back battles. None of the items you use in these battles are used up, and any character who gets to the end of this encounter receives a decent amount of experience points. Unfortunately, these battles are rather grueling, and they can consume a lot of time, so you may not be tempted to join them, given the time requirement.
