Boss Farming with Reset Mechanic: Repeatedly farm a respawnable boss in The Lost City (Act 2) near a checkpoint that allows quick resets (10-15 seconds). This method yields valuable currency like Exalted Orbs, Regal Orbs, and Orbs of Alchemy by killing the boss, consuming its corpse, and respawning it. It is effective for all player levels and can double or triple your wealth in a few hours.
Trial of the Sekhemas for Divine Orbs: This endgame activity is lucrative for farming Divine Orbs, which are highly valuable for gear enhancement. Efficiently running this trial can amass significant currency without relying on trading.
Farming Waystones on the Atlas: Curate your Atlas to maximize Tier 15 Waystone drops, which can be used as currency or crafting materials. Farming Tier 15 Waystones consistently yields multiple Waystones per map, which are valuable and help sustain your farming efforts.
Crafting and Item Farming Strategies
Turning White Items into Profit: Certain white item bases, like Siphoning Wands and Attuned Wands, are highly sought after for crafting. Farming and selling these bases or crafting them with specific modifiers (e.g., +Levels to Lightning Spells, Increased Spell Damage) can yield high profits. For example, investing in a white wand and crafting it with essences and orbs can result in a wand worth many Exalted Orbs.
Targeted Jewelry Farming: Jewelry such as Amethyst Rings (Chaos Resistance), Prismatic Rings (General Resistances), Gold Rings (Increased Rarity), and Lapis Amulets (Mana and Intelligence) hold consistent value. Farming and selling these items unmodified can provide steady currency income.
Tips for Success
Combine farming bosses, trials, and map farming to diversify your currency sources.
Focus on high-demand crafting bases and modifiers to maximize profit.
Be patient with crafting attempts, as high-value items may require multiple tries.
Learn market trends to anticipate which items and currencies will be most valuable for crafting and upgrading your gear.
By focusing on these in-game farming and crafting approaches, you can steadily accumulate currency in Path of Exile 2 without relying on trading with other players.
