The Juice Bar?: Base Facilities

Learn how to use the Juice Bar in Disgaea 6 Complete to boost your characters' stats, class proficiency, and weapon mastery. Discover the best ways to farm Stored EXP, Mana, and Extracts.

Hey there! So, you're wondering about the Juice Bar in Disgaea 6 Complete and what all these 'Base Facilities' are about? Think of the Juice Bar as your personal power-up station. When you chat with the Succubus there, you'll get a few options, but the main one we're looking at is 'Make a Drink'. This is where you'll spend your hard-earned resources to make your characters even stronger.

After picking 'Make a Drink', you'll choose which character you want to buff. Then, you'll see three main categories: Status, Class Proficiency, and Weapon Mastery. Let's break 'em down:

• Status: This is your bread and butter for raw power. You can boost your character's Level, Mana, or individual stats. To do this, you'll need Stored EXP for leveling, Stored Mana for mana boosts, and Extracts for stat increases. Keep in mind, all these actions also cost you HL (that's the in-game currency), so it's a bit of a resource juggle!

• Class Proficiency: This is super important for unlocking new Classes and, crucially, more Evilities. Mastering classes is key to getting powerful abilities. While you can gain proficiency by just playing, the Juice Bar is by far the fastest way. You'll need Stored EXP and HL for this. Trust me, you'll want to max this out, especially when you hit the endgame.

• Weapon Mastery: In Disgaea 6, unlike past games, there aren't special skills tied to weapon mastery. Instead, it directly boosts the stats you get from the weapon type you have equipped. Like Class Proficiency, you can earn it in battle, but the Juice Bar makes it way more efficient.

How to Get Stored EXP and Mana

You'll be using Stored EXP and Mana a lot, so let's talk about how to get them:

• Stage Clear Bonuses: A portion of the EXP you earn after clearing a stage gets added to your Juice Bar as 'Juice Bar EXP Stock'. You'll see this on the stage clear screen.
• Excess EXP Gain: If a character hits the level cap, any extra EXP they earn still goes to the Juice Bar. So, even at max level, they're still contributing!
• Super Reincarnation Carry-Over: When you use the Super Reincarnation feature, some of that EXP also gets stored at the Juice Bar.
• Stored Mana: This one's simpler – it mainly comes from Stage Clear Bonuses, just like the first Stored EXP method.

Farming Extracts

Extracts are essential for boosting individual stats at the Juice Bar. Each stat has its own Extract, and you can snag them in a few ways:

• Defeating Enemies: This is the most straightforward method, but its effectiveness depends on the enemy's stats. It's not super efficient until later in the game.
• Defeating Your Own Characters: This sounds wild, but it's a solid trick! Once your characters have super high stats, defeating them can yield a good amount of Extracts.
• D-Merits: Honestly, this is probably your best bet for Extracts for a good chunk of the game. Some D-Merit rewards give you a ton of them, so keep an eye on those objectives!

So, that's the lowdown on the Juice Bar! It's a crucial part of making your team overpowered, so get familiar with it and start boosting those stats!
