A hotfix has come in nerfing a bunch of the farms, which begs the question: which is the best farms that you should be doing now to get a ton of XP or loot whether you’re in solo play or in party play?
So, I’ve rounded up here some dungeons that are still worth farming even after this hotfix.
Forsaken Quarry
Let’s start it off with Forsaken Quarry. It’s just north of Kyovashad. This one is super linear, super fast, and short to complete with a bunch of mobs and it yields good XP.
For this reason, people are loving this for Diablo 4 Power Leveling while playing solo. It’s very fast to clear and with high-level (80+) characters, it can be defeated in as short as two minutes and will yield around 500 to 550,000 XP.
So, if you are playing solo and want to do a dungeon back to back, Forsaken Quarry is easy to clear and gives you good XP.
Blind Burrows
Outside of this, the current go-to for party play and leveling up in a group is the Blind Burrows.
Blind Burrows is right near the Rruins of Eridu that was recently nerfed. The reason that blind Burrows is so good, especially for party play, is because the layout of the map has loads of windy different corridors and you have to defeat multiple Elites that are spread out.
In party play, you can go in different directions and kill everything and get a ton of XP for everyone in the group. On top of this, the mob type inside is basically spiders, which means there’s a ton of them and they die very easily. So, it’s really good for getting XP again, particularly in party play where you can split up and clear it even faster.
So, if boosting as a group is your goal, then I would head on over to Blind Burrows, at least as of right now.
Remember, things get nerfed all the time since the hotfixes nerfs can still come in. However, for now, Forsaken Quarry and Blind Burrows are basically the best for either solo or party when it comes to getting XP.
Guulrahn Canals
The Guulrahn Canals is also quite good.
It has got a bunch of zombie and spider-type mobs. Again, they’re easy to kill and killing them will give you XP. There are also objectives to get corpse piles inside and it’s quite linear.
So, it means there’s a bunch of things to kill and pretty good for getting XP.

Iron Hold
Iron Hold, on the other hand, has had a bit of a nerf at least we think.
We’ve tested this may be 12 times, and it seems like the Elite packs are still inside. Perhaps they are not quite as common. We were usually encountering at least one, most of the time 2. So, it didn’t seem like too much of a nerf.
And I would say this is still very good for farming rares and legendaries because of the amount of Elites in those Elite packs. But we’re not too sure if this is just our own anecdotal experience from our testing after the hotfix. Other people are reporting it as being very much nerfed for them. But in our testing that we’ve just done after the hotfix, it seems to be still pretty good.
Uldurs Cave
Another great solo option is Uldurs Cave.
This is a very linear, very fast to clear dungeon, and it’s very good for solo play for this reason.
So, if you don’t like Forsaken Quarry for some reason, Uldurs Cave is another great alternative that you can try and farm it solo.
Nightmare Dungeons
While these are pretty much the dungeons that you want to be doing after the recent patch, however, we do want to also give a shout out and recommend doing Nightmare Dungeons.
These are probably one of the best things to do if you can handle them at World Tier 4 at high tier difficulty. They simply have a ton of powered up juiced mobs inside. Killing them and you will get a lot of Diablo 4 Gold. More importantly, you will get glyphs and glyph XP.
But if you happen to get a Nightmare Dungeon for a very good type of dungeon that you want to run like the previously mentioned ones, then you should do the reset trick and keep it and run it back to back. This will be more effective.
Also remember the official Diablo Discord is a great place to go if you want to look for a group to farm with. You don’t need voice chat. It’s very easy to team up with people and there is a very active Community there on the official Diablo Discord. Sadly, there’s no mechanic in the game to allow you to actually form a group and reliably do those things as a group, so using Discord is probably your best bet!
