Final Thoughts

While endgame zones like the Golden Pig Cave offer staggering raw numbers, they require intense focus and heavy gear investments. For many players, the consistency of a mid-tier spot like Swamp Fogans or the sheer ease of burning Agris at Centaurs often leads to more silver over a long week than struggling through an endgame rotation.
