* Read the tips when they pop up. They are usually short and to the point.

* You want to always have a mirage with stroll and one with flutter with you. Smash is very useful too.
* When you enter a dungeon you might come across a field ability icon that appears when you have the correct red ability, if you don't have a mirage with that skill (which is restricted by its grid) the dungeon may provide you with a mirage that learns it or you come back later.
 
* When you enter a dungeon you might come across a field ability icon, if you don't have a mirage with that skill with you you want to go get one (or catch one in the dungeon) because it will probably be used more in that dungeon. But stroll, flutter and smash are universal.


* Every dungeon has a (more or less) secret area. Sometimes they are simple to find, like activate a switch or field ability. Sometimes they are more obscure. The more obscure ones are usually hinted at in a magazine that you can find at some point before the dungeon. The secret area usually has enemies that are higher level than the rest of the dungeon or a special mirage to catch. If it just kicks your ass - come back later.

* If you see a chest that is out of reach vertically, try changing forms.
* The game will switch your forms during cutscenes all the time, but never change your form for the battles you enter.


* You will fight in the form that you are in when you enter the fight or sequence before the fight. For example if there is a short video before a fight, you will fight in the form that you were in when you triggered the video, not the form that the characters are in in the actual video. Always walk around in the form that you want to fight in.
* If Chocolatte isn't selling the item, it may be best to keep it later for a sidequest.


* Unless you have a reliable way of getting more of a battle item, don't use it except to save a tough fight or in a pinch. There is a chance it will be used for a sidequest.
* The only use for money is giving it to Chocolatte. Battle items that inflict ailments can make it easy to capture mirages through repeated uses. Elemental items are pay to win, but you still need to teach mirages to cast dark (Abyss) and light (Banish) spells to hit those two weaknesses.


* Most bosses are resistant or immune to two elements, but also weak to one or two. Try to form your party so that you have at least 3 elements covered and you should be able to deal with most situations. With that said a bit of preparation will make the ride smoother, like if you're going into a volcano water will probably be pretty useful and fire less so.

* Always have Libra with you, either as a mirajewel or on a mirage. You will get the mirajewel early so it shouldn't be an issue.

* Unlike a lot of other JRPGs, status ailments are somewhat useful in this game without trivializing it. Use Libra to find out what can hit the enemy and what they're resistant to.
* Buy a bunch of Libra items and stick them to your small-sized mirages with empty ability slots. Cheap and frees up Mirajewel space.


* Take a trip back to towns you're "finished" with every now and then - sometimes sidequests pops up that you might have missed.
* If you scanned a mirage once, you can press start and see its stats at any time, barring plot developments. Mirages with extra forms count as an entirely new one.


* Make a pass through Plaza 99 every time you're in Nine Wood Hills and grab whatever's on Serafie's head.
* Make a pass through Plaza 99 every time you're in Nine Wood Hills and grab whatever's on Serafie's head. You can fight a few more battles and randomize the item on her head. One adds a point to every mirage you have/ a star for using Champions/ minor XP boost for a few fights/ easier to capture new mirages.


* Tama is a decent starting mirage, but is eclipsed by others pretty early on. There is no story benefit to having her in your party.
* Mirages with a ☆ in front of their name means they are unique who can't transfig and have an altered grid.

* In the View Abilities screen green abilities only work for the mirage they belong to, while those in grey will work for all that mirage's transfiguration line. For instance, Stroll is in green, so will only be available to a Chocochick in its Chocochick form, but say an HP+ in grey will also boost its HP when it's in Chocobo form (though not in Black Chocochick form since that's on a different line). When checking a Mirage Board you can tell what abilities are green because on the board they have a white circle around them.
* Most mirages have multiple forms that you can see on their screen as a cloudy block of increasing size. The forms are revealed if you saw them in battle and can eventually unlock when you meet their requirements. Some take the whole game to reveal. Their transfiguration list will let you know how many they have. Many mirages even have hidden side B and C forms with their own skill points to spend on. Those contribute to your overall sync rate and increase their stats for every 25%.
 
* It's good to switch a mirage between transfiguration lines (ie the Mu line and the Reaver Mu line) and work on their mirage boards as well because even though different lines don't boost each other directly, they both add to that mirage's Sync Rate, which at set points boosts the mirage's stats. There's no reason not to, since different lines also each have their own SP pool to spend on abilities.
