'''Grinding tips for gold and XP'''
*Dungeons with the undead ([[Ydaya Tomb]], [[Kleyou Tomb]], [[The Mausoleum]], [[Irazur Tomb]], [[Mercian Royal Crypt]]) are usually better for grinding gold because they have lots of Sarcophagi.
 
*Dungeons with beasts ([[Lannegar Mine]], [[Bandit Hideout]], [[Deepburrow Cave]]) are usually better for grinding XP because they have more enemies.
 
*Items can be bought for around 4x what they sell for, so try not to buy anything you plan on selling later, like armor or swords. Shops don't have the best gear, anyways.
 
*Most containers are updated every 12 hours in-game and will spawn with new loot.
 
*Fight enemies near your level, even if you can't kill as many. Because of the way [[Experience Points]] work, you get much more XP for killing enemies near your level.
 
*Upgrading your [[Intellect]] is worth it because you gain a bonus to XP and can always reset trait points later on.
 
*At [[Shrine]]s, you can pay 100 gold for +3% XP for a week. This is a very good deal.
