XP Farms: Mining & Combat

Mining Farms: Focus on mining minerals that require fewer swings to extract ore for better XP efficiency. Flintstone yields around 40 XP per stamina bar. Copper Ore can give about 50 XP, with 9 XP per mine. Clay grants 4 XP per mine, giving about 60 XP per mine as it pops more often. Amber provides around 30 XP per mine and is often found in large deposits. Sulfur, found only in the Kindlewastes desert, is the best with 10 XP per mine, and you get 1 Sulfur per swing.

Copper Ore: A large deposit can be found on the Low Meadows side of the Pillars of Eternity (northeast corner of the zone). Set up a Flame Altar near the Wolf den for easy access after server resets.

Clay and Copper: In Revelwood, north of the Springlands. From Revelwood Spire, glide left towards large cliffs. Continue west to the Mark of Sameth, a large overworld dungeon with mineshafts and enemies. This location also has a Repair Anvil.

Amber: Found at the Elixir Well in the northwest of Revelwood. Mine the large Amber mound between the Well entrance and the Root Tree. Two pickaxes should clear it.

Tin: Found in limited overworld areas and shrouded areas of Nomad Highlands.

Fossilized Bone: Mined from giant bone piles in the Nomad Highlands and to some extent in the Kindlewaste.

Iron Ore, Lapis Lazuli, and Sulfur: Available in the final biomes. Sulfur is the equivalent to Clay. Iron Ore is in the Shroud of the final zone. Lapis Lazuli is found frequently in the Kindlewastes, buried in cliffs and pits.

Salt: Can be mined in the Springlands but is often only found in the Shroud, making it less recommended for XP farming due to danger.

Combat Locations: Dense combat areas provide a steady stream of XP. The Mark of Sameth POI (Point of Interest) mentioned above also offers combat XP alongside mining.

Resetting Farms: You can log out and back in to reset the world and allow your favorite farms to respawn (be brought back to life at a checkpoint after death). Creating a Flame Altar near a farm location allows for easy access after resets, but do not place it too close to prevent respawning.

General Leveling: Remember that these XP farms are supplementary. Continue to complete quests, read notes and journals for more quests, and explore for the main bulk of your leveling.
