WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Town vendors after Mapworks, boss dungeon, or campaign clears.

Loot farming produces equipment you will not always use. Selling genuine surplus to town vendors creates a practical gold loop: clear content, compare drops, keep useful items, and sell the rest to fund the next map or a measured gambling session. Avoid selling an item before checking sockets and effects; a lower-level piece may still suit a build or future character. This route generates spendable gold from ordinary drops rather than promising a special currency item.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Collect equipment drops from combat.
  • Know which items are useful for your build or another planned setup.
  • Have access to a town vendor.
  1. Run a map or dungeon and collect equipment that fits in your inventory.
  2. Return to town when space is limited or the run ends.
  3. Compare items with your equipped gear, checking stats, sockets, and useful effects.
  4. Keep likely upgrades and items you intend to save for another build.
  5. Sell unwanted equipment to a vendor to receive gold.
  6. Use the proceeds for Mapworks scrolls or a controlled gambling budget, then repeat.

Farming tips

  • Compare before selling: useful sockets or effects can matter more than an item’s level.
  • Reserve some gold for map access if repeatable Mapworks farming is part of your plan.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeat after each loot run. The gold earned depends on the items you choose to sell; it is not a fixed payout.

Common mistakes

  • Selling before checking an item’s stats; inspect it against your build first.
  • Keeping every drop until inventory fills; sell items with no practical use.
  • Spending all sale proceeds on gambling; retain funds for maps and other planned purchases.

When to stop or switch

Stop selling when you have enough gold for the next planned activity; keep useful gear even if it could be sold.
