Hunting Range

The Hunting Range is an interesting place. You won't earn any money here, but you will earn large amounts of Items that can be traded for equipment in Ioka Village. The battles are easy, so it's well worth a trip when you first arrive. The Weapons, but not the Armor, that you can trade for will be improved after defeating Magus (though the prices remain the same). Much later in the game, the usual sale items become unavailable, but you can trade for the excellent Ruby Armor by obtaining 10 of each trade Item.

Of particular note here is the Nu that appears when it is raining. The first time you defeat it, you will earn a Third Eye. You will also earn three of each trade Item each time you defeat it, which will speed the Item farming process considerably. The Nu appears randomly in one of a number of spots during each rainfall, so you have to be both fast and lucky to find it.
