Can I have the details on farming? I've read it on forums and I don't understand what it is, or what you do. I've heard you get good money for it.
Thanks in advance!

Farming is killing the same enemies over and over again...if you do it for XP you're "Farming XP", if you're doing it for itme you're "Farming Items", got it? Simple but easy

I think it's just going to a specific spot with high level monster(s) (not sure about lvl) then just killing them all till you get something good, then repeat it over and over and over and over and over and over and over ... you get the point.

Yea, that's all I got from that, and now they only give gold and stuff, so it only works a number of times, then you don't get anything.

ohh ok
Thanks alot everyone for your help. So that kind of stuff happens later on in the game? Because all I see now are low level monsters.

I really haven't gotten farther than Quarrel Falls, so I don't know.

I'm sure there are areas to do this sort of thing later though.

You can farm at just about any time you want, even pre-sear. At lower lv's and with a limited selection of where to go your farming will be limited to just picking up whatever drops and selling it for cash. As you progress you'll open better places to farm and you'll recognize them as you go.

happy hunting

Actually, you aren't going to be looking for high lvl mobs to farm. They are going to be lower lvl than you. Basically to where you can kill them back to back and keep moving. If you are going through a mission and notice one type of mob dropping more items or cash than others try to make it a point to use them. Anyway, you just spend as much time as you can bear grinding on them and you will get the cash and items and experience to boot.
