Unless you’re going for the Unbreakable charms for Divine.I went to the Failed Tramway whenever I needed to grind for geo. You can get a good bit of geo for each of the Carver Hatcher enemies, if you let them spawn all of their Dirtcarvers, and they’re easy to deal with if you use the small doorway for the first two, and back into the far wall for the last 4. And equip quickslash and longnail/mark of pride.With Greed charms you can get around 550 geo per run, which is about 1.5 minutes.

One victory gives you 2000 geo and if you have F/U Strenght and fully upgraded nail, everything will fall very fast. One run last about 10 minutes.

Can confirm. This method is both effective and not boring. #4 Boksha View Profile View Posts 16 Aug, 2019 @ 12:48pm Carver Hatchers are a decent way to get money quickly at about 5000 Geo per 15 minutes if you do it right. I think technically THE fastest way to grind Geo is still killing the Hoppers in the area directly below Colosseum of Fools, which can get you about 7000 Geo per 15 minutes. However, if you're fully decked, you can finish and restart the Trial of the Conqueror in about 5 minutes, putting that at 6000 Geo per 15 minutes. #5 ramonpontes View Profile View Posts 16 Aug, 2019 @ 1:21pm I also vote for the Trial of the Conqueror. It is pure action, and by far less boring than going around hunting for enemies. #6 Syndiciate View Profile View Posts 16 Aug, 2019 @ 11:34pm Early Game Farm Spot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3iguz3UqLwMid-Late Game Farm Spot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foteL57nE2s Last edited by Syndiciate; 16 Aug, 2019 @ 11:37pm #7 Boksha View Profile View Posts 17 Aug, 2019 @ 6:43am Oh yeah, I'd completely forgotten about the City of Tears. That's a good spot as well. Gives results comparable to the Trial of the Conqueror. #8 Syndiciate View Profile View Posts 17 Aug, 2019 @ 1:15pm

With less effort as well. You can just sit back, play some music and go to town. #9 Boksha View Profile View Posts 17 Aug, 2019 @ 2:15pm I mean, that goes for every strategy listed here. With a full set of upgrades, the Trial of the Conqueror can be beaten without breaking a sweat. Just tried; 9 minutes and 40 seconds to beat it twice and I never even went below 7 masks in hitpoints. (while listening to some classical/jazz fusion from Windstreken - Mundum Renovavit)In fact I'd argue that one's even easier since the enemies mostly come to you rather than the other way around, so you have to be less worried about keeping up the pace. It's also less boring; say you need 10 000 Geo, in the City of Tears, that means you'll be doing that round trip ~40 times in 25 minutes. By comparison, the Trial of the Conqueror you'll be doing the entire trial only 5 times (again in 25 minutes) #10 Syndiciate View Profile View Posts 17 Aug, 2019 @ 6:48pm

Personally, I feel it's easier to get in the zone by doing the same run over and over again to the point that your mind takes over for you while something like the trials requires a bit more active attention. But in the end, I guess it's really up to preference.
