As a complex and difficult ARPG, POE 2 will require a lot from you, so if you want to make it through the endgame, you need to farm XP as quickly as possible to make your character strong enough in time.
To do this, you need to know not only how to gain some experience points while resting during the game, but also the best places and ways to clear the map at relevant levels - you can even use this method to collect more POE 2 Currency and special loot!
The best maps for you to collect XP or other items at the moment are mainly those with easy-to-navigate layouts, high monster density, and even better if there is a unique small boss that is easy to approach. Based on this, we will recommend 8 best XP farming locations for you.
Although Act 1 may be the easiest part of the entire POE 2, because of the high difficulty of the game itself, if you are not level enough and your gear is not powerful enough, you may still encounter a lot of obstacles when encountering Boss Geonor and transitioning from Act 1 to Act 2. If you do encounter such a dilemma, it is recommended to go to Ogham Village immediately to farm XP for the end of Act 1.
Although it looks messy here, the map navigation is relatively clear, and Executioner battle here can provide XP and possible POE 2 Divine Orbs drops. If you have the energy to spare, you can try to kill Crowbell in Hunting Grounds at least once to get two additional passive skill points to further enhance your character.
After entering Act 2, the map clearing difficulty gradually increases, and you will encounter some more difficult mob enemies in several maps. To do this, you need to get more XP and some reliable defensive skills before you can move on.
Based on this, you first consider choosing Keth as your first Act 2 farming map, because the optional boss Kabala the Constrictor Queen is relatively easy to defeat. In addition, Keth also comes with an optional map Lost City, which contains Keth’s ninth treasure optional boss, which can provide you with a lot of XP.
Entering Act 3 means that you are not far from the endgame, so the overall challenge difficulty will rise to a level. Based on this, Jungle Ruins is a good place to prepare before the start of this act. The optional boss Mighty Silverfist, as well as several other small bosses and elite enemies can provide you with a lot of XP.
As for Utzaal, it is actually the last large map you need to clear before encountering the final boss. If you can complete the battle with Viper Napuatzi in it fairly easily, this map is a good place for you to gain XP because of the large open area and high monster density.
Not only are trials a great place to earn passive points for your Ascendancy subclasses, they also allow you to rerun them to earn XP and other loot. If you’re primarily looking to farm XP, Trial of Chaos is a better choice than Trial of the Sekhemas, since the latter prioritizes avoiding damage, which somewhat hinders combat and is not conducive to earning XP. Also, the good news is that starting from Act 3, you can rerun Trial of Chaos at any time.
By the time you reach the endgame of Path of Exile 2, you may still need to grind quite a bit to continue to perfect your character, and in fact this is one of the purposes of POE 2’s progression curve setting - to allow you to focus on improving your character after completing builds and before entering higher-level maps. Based on this, the early endgame maps provide you with this opportunity.

While doing basic farming, you can also use currency to upgrade Waystones with magic and rare modifiers, allowing these endgame maps to spawn more monsters or loot. The best modifiers are prefixes, such as increasing monster density or increasing elite enemies by 20%, giving you the opportunity to earn more XP per map.
Once you enter the endgame, you will encounter a variety of different endgame events that will give you different loot. Of these events, it is recommended that you complete Expeditions on the map first, and to do this you must first find the NPC Dannig, as only he can give you access to Expeditions.
Expeditions will give you some big dig points where you can place 20 explosives to link Remnants and Runic monsters together, killing large groups of enemies at once and getting more XP and loot.
As one of the popular endgame farming events, the swarms of monsters spawned in Breaches can also bring you a lot of XP, as well as a lot of currency and loot. And just like farming endgame maps, you can also increase the monster density in Breaches through Waystone modifier to increase the XP you can get.
Similar to Breaches and Expeditions, Simulacrums are another endgame activity that allows you to work for XP, with waves of enemies spawning and you can earn a lot of XP by clearing them.
However, it should be noted that Simulacrums farming tends to focus more on generating Simulacrum Splinters and other loot for you rather than XP, so it may be more suitable for you to use to help you improve your builds.
These are the 8 best locations for XP farming in Path of Exile 2 at the moment. If you are leveling up and urgently need a lot of XP, then make sure to go to these locations first. Have fun!
