🎯 Solo vs Co-op Speedfarming

Solo Tips:

  • Keep Blood Mist on cooldown to reset and zoom

  • Don’t chase elites—farm dense mobs for Cinders fast

  • Hit 3+ mobs with Blood Surge or Wave for max benefit

  • Run Reap instead of Decrepify if you want constant corpses

Co-op Tips:

  • Let teammates focus elites—you just clear packs and reset

  • Stack Vulnerable with Tendrils to boost everyone’s damage

  • Bring Iron Maiden if someone else is running Decrepify

  • Coordinate Mist paths for safety and support


🛠 Suggested Farming Loop

  1. Pop Corpse Tendrils → pull mobs into tight clump

  2. Hit with Blood Wave → watch triple waves delete packs

  3. Use Blood Surge or Blood Mist to clean up

  4. Spam evade (Metamorphosis) → get Fortify, keep moving

  5. Repeat and scoop up Aberrant Cinders

  6. Open chests fast before Hellborne/Death Pulse shows up
