Rune Factory 5: How To Farm SEED Points Fast

thegamer.com:

Rune Factory 5, like most other farming games, has a simple progression loop. You produce items to sell for money, and you use the money to unlock more items. There's much more to the game than just money - you can't buy your way through a dungeon - but that's the core conceit. In Rune Factory 5, money isn't the only currency to keep in mind. There are also SEED points.

Unlike money, which is mostly obtained by shipping items, there are many ways to earn SEED points. Most methods of earning points are part of the game's core loop, so you'll naturally accumulate more of them over time. But if you need a lot of SEED points fast, here are the best ways to grind throughout the game.

SEED points are the game's secondary currency. Like regular money, SEED points are earned and spent, but on different things. Directives are the main use for SEED points. Through Directives, you can plan festivals, earn Crafting licenses, and expand your Storage Box space. Directives are extremely important for progression in Rune Factory 5.

If you are just starting the game, it's recommended to spend your first crop of points on Crafting licenses.

The other use for SEED points is renovation. Renovating your farm buildings or facilities in town takes points as well as materials and money. Saving up for such projects can take a long time, so save yourself some frustration and don't forget the point cost. For beginners, the best building to go for is the Monster Barn.

As you progress through the game and capture monsters, you'll unlock equippable SEED crests. One of these, the Patrol Crest, gives a 1.5x multiplier to all SEED points earned. This crest is awarded for capturing every 5-star Wanted Monster. If
