What is early melee farming spots?
Ive seen like 30 farming guides and they are copy pastas of 2 endgame locations. There is not a single farming guide location for early melee guide.

Farming 5giants as melee is not viable. Its quite dangerous. Even those 2giants with caravan are bad to farm because bad hitbox. Anyone want to share real melee farming spot?

farming the 5 giants as melee is incredibly easy, just take one at a time

for early early, just try in front of the gates. theres plenty of knights to farm from

You seen the rolly rock farm? easy 2.5k every time, or do white varred quest, get a usable item.. spawn there and bow a crow into jumping off a cliff for 10k(or 50k with gold eyes)

There is a quest you can get early on by killing the Tibia mariner where it marks a teleport gate on your map. In that area are these enemies that will one shot you early but are stun locked by pretty much every weapon.

They give 1000+ souls each and are everywhere.

If you have gotten to the beast sanctum you have already done the quest.

you can kite them into eachother with the horse and they basically kill themselves with their attacks

the second you get your horse you can go farm the bolder for easy 2k each... no combat needed

Fren, you need to practice those baby giant because believe me, their hitbox is not bad. You are either rolling in the wrong direction or doing something else wrong, and if you can't find and correct that this early in the game you're going to be in for a world of hurt. Not just saying "git gud" either, but those guys quickly became priority kills for me on account of them being so easy to predict... once I learned how not to get killed.

Im sick of giants. Their roar can knock of the horse and then you certain dead because standing up takes 5sec or more. And no im not gonna farm an hour of such stressful situation. And if i deal 100 or heck even 200dmg with weapon it will take a lot of time and kiting as melee.. Its not worth it. It gives worse xp/hour than farming mundane horse raiders.

Technically i play "hardcore" until i plan to die at lvl 60 or lvl 80 then it wont matter. But i dont want to do dumb boulder exploit (yep its exploit in my opinion)..
giants are fun as mage but as melee its just horrible
farming simple soldiers doesnt net much xp.

Some deadly small guys who can one shot me but give 1k xp - no i cant do those.

Even a mild 100k an hour would be good spot.

You kill those midgets and they drop 1094 souls each and are super easy to kill. You can farm 20k souls in 2 minutes or less.

Why you such a liar? 20k souls in 2min means you think people in early game have enough dps to kill 1 in 6seconds lmao please just stop.

Can you share your class? Knowing your class is easy to set a guide.

i just plop my summon sign down and farm boss kills. plus you get rune arcs too so I have 99 of those with a bunch in storage and I can be rune'd up literally at all times. the lady with the orange baby gives 10k a pop

Farming bosses gives xp? But is it possible to farm them offline?
