Gold Needles are purchasable in the castle above, and costs less than the Gil received for killing the monsters.

It is also possible to kill these monsters instantly (one at a time) by using the Gold Needle on them.AND the castle has its own Inn and save point. This makes it the ideal grinding spot for Jobs for a good portion of the game. Groups of two give you 4 ABP, while groups of five give you 8. They come in groups of two and five, and are vulnerable to the Blue Magic spell Level 5 Death. The basement of Bal Castle, and only one kind of enemy: Objet d'Art.If you have a Beastmaster in the party, however, those monsters can be controlled with the "Control" ability, and can be made to kill themselves for massive experience. When you first go there, you'll meet dragons who are much too tough for you. You can also get Cat Claws from panthers, a decent equip for Yang when you recruit him not much later, and Poison Arrows from pythons if you arm your Squishy Wizards with bows. Due to the way the world map is divided into enemy-containing quadrants, going as far north of Mount Ordeals as possible will allow you to encounter enemies from the area around Troia that, while able to slaughter you messily if you're not careful, also drop about 8 times the experience and gold than the enemies you're supposed to be encountering drop.(Unless you're playing a version that lets you switch party members, in which case Cid misses out as he hasn't been in your party yet, and Palom and Porom miss out if you're actually soloing because they're actually in your party, and KO'd characters do not get EXP.) What's more, all party members you've ever had in your party to that point gain experience even when they're not in the party - including Kain, Rosa, and Rydia, meaning the only member of your final party missing out on a large experience boost is Edge. Just fighting all the monsters you normally come across as you walk down Mount Ordeals will get Cecil to level 10 easily. When Cecil class changes from a Dark Knight to a Paladin, he goes back down to level 1, but he's still powerful enough to deal real damage to the enemies, especially the undead ones. Grinding on Mount Ordeals with a solo Paladin Cecil makes most of the next few dungeons (Lodestone Cavern, Tower of Zot, Sealed Cave) far more bearable.Unfortunately, Lake Dohr can't be accessed after you defeat Leviathan, however Bahamut's Lair remains open as long as you need it. Even better than the Undersea Cave, though you can't reach them until you get the third airship, the Invincible. There's also Lake Dohr and Bahamut's Lair, at least in the DS remake.Just one runthrough to get all the treasure inside will level your party up by at least 3-5 levels. The Undersea Cave is a completely optional place which gives a lot of experience for comparatively little effort.Many a player have used this strip to battle the magic-based enemies to level spells up against the Flans that are immune to several status effects (such as Toad, which pays dividends when the party gets the snowmobile later in the game and can access the minigame), which in turn also increases mana and other stats. Directly south of Altair is a strip of land where you fight enemies from the Mysidian encounter table (with the exception of the Pixel Remaster version, in which the enemies there are the same as the ones closer to Altair), similar to the first game.The area around Mysidia itself is less dangerous and can be reached easily with the ship, should you wish to grind up, shop around in Mysidia, or loot the Cave of Mysidia before you're expected by the plot to go anywhere near there. The path to Mysidia from Altair is filled with very deadly enemies.If you can handle the monsters, a couple of minutes of grinding can net you dozens of tomes, including several Game-Breaker spells—and any tomes you don't want can be sold for a very handsome sum. The area between Fynn and the Palamecian desert isn't too difficult, and many of the enemies encountered along the way drop spell tomes.
