Can someone please tell me where some good farming spots are.

MSecorsky · Jul 18, 2005, 09:07 PM // 21:07

If someone tells you, they won't be good farming spots by the time you get there.

I have wrote this may times and I will probably write it many more. The best place to farm is anywhere you find a bunch of mobs. Even if they do not drop uber stuff the first run odds are after 10 or so runs you will get a good drop. Another good thing to look for is how close is it to a town, so if you do die you can pop back to town and drop the DP instantly. Also to farm you have to be able to solo, this means you have to make up a build that will allow you to stay alive with many, many mobs on you at one time so look through your skills and try to find a combo of skills that can keep you alive. BTW W/Mo is my fav to umm. . .make a living with.

Good farming, I mean living yes living not farming farming = nerfing.

A good farming spot is anywhere that you can kill mobs on your own, without dying. Obviously the high level the enemies+areas, the more productive your farming will be.

theclam · Jul 18, 2005, 11:36 PM // 23:36

There aren't any good farming spots in general. For example, Monks work best in areas with no enchantment removal or knockdown spells. Elementalists work best in areas with lots of mobs that bunch up. While you're doing quests and missions around the desert, try to look for areas that have mobs that would fit your farming build. It's not that difficult, I've found dozens of spots that I can farm with my Monk.

farming spot is in Augury rock, you run out from west entrance, get 4 wreckages, collect 500 gold from merchant takes for 4 minutes. 3500K in an hr. not bad. I have one where you get cool items but not telling ya, because its hacked up and I dont want GW to fix it.

Vhayr · Jul 19, 2005, 01:11 AM // 01:11

I didn't think there were any places left, but now I'm further into the game, I'm always finding nice stuff. I got a notice today actually, like the tutorial ones at the beginning of the game, saying that if you only kill the first enemies in a map and then warp out, they will run low on loot, and that you'll get better items by going through the map.

And it's true.

lol that is funny, nicely said. Also, as an addition to what you said also make sure that the majority of the enemies you will be facing in the area is primarily melee w/ no enchantment stripping
