Can anyone can suggest good places to farm XP in SOD?

    At the Coast Way Crossing, go to level 2 of the dwarven dig site. In the room with the pillars you can keep on summoning the mephits. Drink a potion of absorption to gain 100% electrical resistance and chuck away at the lightning mephits with no risk involved. They are 420 xp each and five or six, I believe, are summoned at a time.

    Thanks for the tip @Miridor!

    im not sure if its completely necessary to farm XP in SoD, unless you are on purposely missing out on a lot of the content i was able to hit the XP cap before the end of the game, in fact i believe i still had several hours of gameplay left before i hit the XP cap

    Sometimes I just feel like grinding especially for new multiplayer or Dual Class party members who need a reliable way to boost xp to enjoy the rest of the game before its over.

    Excess XP transfers over to bg2ee as well so nothing is lost.

    They are not summoned at a time but when you click the wrong pillar.
    Why chuck this mephits when you can just endlessly spawn them into Cloudkill to see them instantly die? >:)

    In the underground river area towards the end of the game you can rest in the south near that evil druids lair and it will spawn 4000 do Dark Treants.

    In Chapter 9, there is a random enocunter (one of the four while travelling) , where two hill giants are attacking a child dragon. If you rest there, 80% chance that 4-6 hill giants will attack. Each one is 3000 XP. So, usually it is 15000 XP per fight, much more than doppelgangers in Durlag's tower. But yes, you can not come back there once you leave. And on low levels you could have some trouble. And resting is also troublesome. You need at least -8 AC to tank them more or less. better -12. But it is more that possible to grind there up to 3 million (with xp remover) if you really want to.
