Disgaea, as a series, has always had a focus on grinding. If your numbers aren’t getting bigger, then you are doing something wrong. Disgaea 6 is no exception. In fact, the game’s story is heavily focused on the concept of endless grinding to gain unimaginable power. Luckily, there are more ways than ever to get stronger in this latest entry.
Whilst not a unique feature of Disgaea 6, the Cheat Shop is arguably one of the most powerful. As the name implies, it allows you to “cheat” - or more specifically, change the game’s parameters to suit your needs. If you want to make the most of your time, then using the Cheat Shop is a must.
What Is The Cheat Shop?
The Cheat Shop allows you to alter all kinds of parameters within Disgaea. Think of it as an advanced custom difficulty slider. You can do everything from making enemies more powerful to increasing how much EXP you gain multiple times over. You can find it in the bar, near the Dark Assembly.
What Can The Cheat Shop Do?
In short, the Cheat Shop can make your life significantly easier. If you want to earn billions of HL, thousands of levels, and max every skill, then this is the place to be.
Obtain Rate
These cheats alter the rate at which you obtain resources in Disgaea 6. If you want to increase one “resource”, then you will need to reduce others in kind. This allows you to tailor your grinding experience.
All base values are 100%.

Best Way To Use The Cheat Shop
How you use the Cheat Shop depends on what you want to do at any given time. However, we have some rough settings for certain tasks to give you a hand.
Grinding
When it comes to grinding, you want to make sure you are going to the Cheat Shop and reducing everything to its lowest level, except the thing you are grinding and Mana. If you are trying to level up, then increase EXP, and lower everything else except Mana. Same with HL, Weapon Mastery, etc.
This way you will gain a huge increase in your gains in that specific area, whilst not neglecting Mana. Mana is used in all kinds of things - such as powering up your Skills, learning new Evilities, Super Reincarnation, and Character Creation. You want to have a healthy supply of Mana, so it’s usually best to keep that setting at 100 percent - unless you are trying to grind Mana of course.
You will also want to use Enemy Strength. Grinding low-level enemies is only going to get you so far. You will eventually get to the point where you can kill enemies who are thousands of levels above you, at level one. Crank up the Enemy's Strength and take advantage of the increased gains as a result.
Auto-Selling
If you are going to use Auto-Sell - which is something you should do when grinding - then we advise you to turn on the “catch-all” options. For example, turning on Auto-Sell Commons is usually a safe bet. Commons are woefully inadequate compared to most things, and many commons can be bought at the Item Shop - so you aren’t missing out.
Turning on Auto-Sell and targeting a specific item type is also great. For example, our party is not using Bows or Spears. There is no reason not to Auto-Sell those items. Just make sure to turn off Auto-Sell from time to time, as you will need certain items to progress quests etc.
