Farming Preparations

Identify the Best Source: The Sources below are generally ranked from best to worst. Make sure to complete any required quests and be aware of Source^Restrictions.

Equip Your Character: Equip your character to easily overcome enemies.

Bonus Tips

Combine Runs: Get more loot per run by integrating nearby sources into your farming route.
Track Progress: Track your runs to more precisely predict drops and more clearly monitor progress. Additionally, time your runs to see how tweaks affect your farming efficiency.
Speed it up: Explore shortcuts and boost your movement speed to minimize travel time. Also, aim to shorten your time to kill with higher DPS or big damage bursts.
