im on the rainy giza plains right now (fleeing for my mfing life when i see thunder elementals), trying to upgrade my weapons and armor, but shit is SO expensive. and sadly i really havent figured out where to best spend them either.

i feel a little overwhelmed w/ all the options, anyone getting they ass kicked around here? my party is at like level 18ish average. tried to fight those ivory tortises and barely can beat them (petrify is my only hope, and pray my dudes dont get wrecked during the countdown).
