Tired of sweating over weapon mastery? These three methods turn grinding into a Netflix-and-chill session. Whether you're solo or in a group, here's how to max out your weapons without lifting a finger - with tested XP rates and idiot-proof tactics.
1. Baby Thorpe Swarm (273 XP/minute)
Where: Battle's Clash Crossing, Great Cleave.
How:
Teleport to Battle's Clash Shrine, sprint west to trigger Hounding the Master.
Wave 1-3: Kill trash mobs (ignore loot).
Wave 4: AOE the swarm (1k+ XP in 60 seconds).
Kill Thorpe (bonus 500 XP) → repeat.
Pro tips:
Solo: Doable, but recruit via chat for 2x speed.
XP rate: Up to 273/min unchallenged (tested).
Loot: Azoth galore + gear bags. AFK friendly when grouped.
2. Restless Shores Pirate AOE spam (160+ XP/min)
Where: Channel View Post → Ocean View Post loop.
Why: Mid-40s pirates hit like kittens. Perfect for AOE weapons.
Steps:
Warp to Crisis Shrine, run north to Channel View Post.
Aggro 10+ pirates → nuke with AOE.
Sprint to Ocean View Post, repeat → respawns sync perfectly.
Perks:
Solo Gold: 160+ XP/min, no coordination required.
Group bonus: Stack 'All Together Now' music buff (+10% XP).
Loot Pinata: Greens, coins and salvage mats stack up.
3. Brightwood Isle Elite Zone (Risky but rewarding)
Tactics: Take advantage of exploding mobs for free XP.
How:
Teleport to the nearest shrine and storm the island.
Draw strategy: Tag exploding corpses → drag them → let them explode (200 XP each).
Skip tanky gravediggers unless in a group.
XP rate: ~120/min solo, but spikes with AOE clearing.
Warning: Overpull = respawn run. Gear up or bring friends.
Bonus: Portal/Chest Runs (Zero-Sweat XP)
Join world chat groups for Corruption Portal or Elite Chest runs.
Equip your weapon, tag mobs, let others carry.
XP: ~80-100/min (passive) + loot showers.
Pro tips to maximise profits
Stack buffs:
Double XP token + music buff = 110% XP boost.
Activate during swarm waves or pirate loops.
AOE Meta: Respec skills for ranged attacks (reset later).
Attribute Respec > Gear: Pump up your main stats (STR/DEX/INT) for faster kills.
Why these farms dominate
Baby Thorpe: XP piñata for lazy grinders.
Pirates: Turn off your brain, profit.
Elites: For when you want to feel something.
