Not sure I can put in enough time on the 1 week dom to get any points out of it, I'll probably just be doing the smaller races to get rewards. | ||

I was having my best race ever today in the 100 min fixed with a 48 min fidelitas kill but ended up not having my best result because I decided to head to docks with 15 mins left. The xp between sarn and docks is shit, and I ended up getting only 1 more level out of those 15 minutes although I made it to docks. Not sure I can put in enough time on the 1 week dom to get any points out of it, I'll probably just be doing the smaller races to get rewards. I believe ~30 mins left for reaching your final farming location is ok. But then again, better ask the better racers. I think I will go to play 1 week a bit by the way. Not full-time though. I will see how it goes. //as it looks I will play solo.  Trying Spectral Throw then (never done that before). | ||

Either Caverns 2 (from the entrance of Cavern 1 to the WP.) or Sarn. Depends on the exact context though. Pyramid is only one level higher and the mobs are much harder. Green pirates, squids and bears are much easier and the density is a lot higher. Its also a very linear zone so you wont waste much time at all. Ask anyone that did the 3H immolation fracture race, we were doing Cavern 2 runs in like 60 seconds. | ||

Either City of Sarn or Caverns 1. The problem is: Getting all bandits and Vaal takes "long" but leaving them all out and farm caverns lead to being overleveled there before the end. I had the problem a while ago. Problem is solved by getting faster... -.- On February 12 2014 06:28 Blitzkrieg0 wrote: Just pretend you RIPed and had to start over. lol, you can't even "RIP" in that way since it's softcore. xD | ||

. Since RNG might decide to fuck with me and create 2 mob packs in the entire length of the cavern 2 ( yeah it happens -__- ). While Pyramid guarantees mob in every corner. Guess I'll try either one, Sarn or Cavern, let's see how it goes. | ||

Depending on what Level you want to achieve you could probably farm Sins1 until 23, Crypt until 26 and Caverns 1 until 28 (with the levels you will get no XP penalty; so you could still level from 23 to 24 in Sins 1 for example, if I'm not mistaken). I personally think Sins 1 is the best farming location in Act 2 because of the easy farm way (just in a circle) and two save blue packs. It just begins to suck if you reach the penalty treshold. Cav 1 is definately better than Cav 2 though despite the monster level difference. The difference is just one level but Cav 2 has usually very low monster density, and two of three monster types are complete shit (Phantoms will spread like hell and the bears take a lot of damage to kill). I tested this a while ago and I made ~2 levels more in Cav 1 than in Cav 2 in the same time frame (average). But take all of this with a grain of salt. I suck at races. I'm happy to get a <30 min merveil kill for example. I'm trying to become faster atm. | ||
