Locations For Farming Skill Points
In Black Desert Online, some locations are much better than other locations to farm skill points in.
Polly Forest
Polly’s Forest is located at the left of Grana, and it runs between the Weenie Cabin down to the Looney Cabin. Polly’s Forest is always contested, and in this area, you will fight enemies looking like mushrooms, and they are straightforward to kill. However, there are not that many crazy drops in this area.
The trash drops here also do not weigh much, so may grind here a lot longer. You may get around 20-50 million silver per hour from the trash drops here. The mobs in this area are also very tightly packed so you can kill many mobs per hour.
Fadus Habitat
This location is excellent for beginners, and it can be found at the left of the Archer Guard Post. It can be found in the north part of Grana(north of Polly forest). This location is just like Polly’s Forest, but some elite mobs can be found in this area. You should be careful in this area and avoid elite mobs. The mobs are also close together in this area, which makes it easier for grinding.
The trash loot in this area also does not weigh that much, so it may grind for a longer time in this place even if you don’t have much inventory storage space. You will be able to stack more trash loot from this area. This area is also not that popular; you find fewer players here. There are also no good drops that can be found in this area. However, if you are a new player, that would be an advantage for you.
Sausan Garrison and Shultz Guard
These locations are above Altinova. A lot of players no longer come to these areas, unlike before. Nonetheless, the mobs found here still give great XP for skills. The mobs are also closely packed together in this area, making them easier to kill when grinding because, in just a short amount of time, you can kill more mobs.
However, just like Fadus Habitat, it is located away from the main location where you have to travel a distance to reach it first.
The trash loot in this area also weighs a lot, which would not be good for your inventory. The trash loot here weighs 0.3 LT compared to Polly’s Forest’s trash loot and Fadus Habitat’s trash loot, which only weighs 0.1 LT.
Gahaz Bandits
The Gahaz Bandits can be located in Shakatu’s Territory to the right of Shakatu. This is is a near a city so you may sell items and repair your weapons. The mobs also drop only one type of trash loot in this area, unlike Sausans Garrison and Shultz Guard, where they drop three kinds.
The trash loot also weighs 0.3 LT here, and you can get great money here. The mobs here are also packed together really well, but they are also well distanced from each other, so you have to travel a bit to reach another mob after killing one.
Desert Naga Temple
It is located in the desert, so you have to bring purified water/star anise tea to avoid desert sickness. You get good skill points/hour and money as you grind in this location. It is also very close to a bank, which is a bonus.
