    The catalog will only reduce the Ingot rate by a tiny bit. You just got very lucky!

    i guess i did get really lucky cause im about 16/30 now on ingots and 3/30 on traps but i'm still maxing out all my classes and just got to the point where i can kill them without TP. the only time i used death to kill those things was when i was doing mission 63 :D but i still need to finish the rest of those damn missions

    i got all my traps (farming dark matters right now), but i ran out of money upgrading the first weapon and i'm still need to upgrade 5 weapons and most accessories.

    Any suggestion to gain money? :/

    Lots and lots of platinum ingots. Was really the best way I could find. Once you get the pattern down for killing Adamantoise in <2 minutes without using death or summons, even though it is extremely boring, makes you money extremely quickly. I just fought the one in Eden over and over again, saved at the save point, if it dropped something, I would save and reset, if not, I would just reset immediately after the fight.

    :3~

    Also if you upgraded Fang's weapon from the Taming Pole, at * it dismantles to about 1,150,000~ or so worth of sellables if you need that for your final push. Selling tier 2 weapons after you've just got them gives you a decent amount back too.

    so ive been doing a few tests while farming, using only collectors catalog and my drop rate for ingots so far is 18/40 or so, and i got all my traps by the time i capped my CP, which was awesome. now after reading others luck from before i can say that only having collectors is good for getting both if you still need them.

    For the turtle in Eden there's no need to save and reset to respawn it, if you run a little ways from it, then run back to it's spawn it'll be there. It's only like a 10 second run to respawn the Turtle.

    I usually run to where the Behemoths is, then turn right back around to where Turtle spawns near those Soldiers and it's up. I would probably go nuts saving and reloading everytime after that only turtle.

    =(

    I swear, I read that they only respawn after running all the way through the door passed all of the soldiers and behemoths over there. I guess I should have tried it myself before saving and restarting to farm all that crap. Lame! Oh well.

    I just went and double checked since it's been awhile since I been there, but you have to run down the steps after killing the Adamantoise, should be 3-4 Behemoths and 2 Juggernauts, run just a little past the 2nd Juggernaut, then run back to where the Adamantoise is and it'll respawn.

    Edit: I just find this to be a bit quicker than running back and forth from that door. You don't even have to run that far past 2nd Juggy, just like 3-4 more steps, that's it. And damn, 4/4 Plat Ingots with no Catalog equipped...

    Not to mention, exponentially increase the chances of bricking your shit if it's not up to the task.

    Is there anything else to do after you beat the last boss? As in extra side quests and etc.

    There's tons. Upgrade weapons/accessories for Treasure Hunter, do all your missions, max out your characters.

    That alone will keep you busy for quite a while.

    Certain missions unlock other missions, but you don't have to do them completely in order. If you see an active c'ieth stone (flashing on the map), you can do that mission.
