Dungeons & Dragons Online Guides » Giant Cave Farming

Once a week, a friend and me ransack the Giant’s Cave on elite three times in a row. Wizard and Fighter. Enter the cave, cast invis and haste and move to the shrine ignoring all giants (try to be careful, but for the most part the ignore you or follow you just some steps). Kill the giant before the shrine to clear the way (this giant is alone and if you manage to arrive there without any other following you, it’s easy: just Otto’s the giant and kill it). Then cast invis again, haste and fire prot, and move to where the two chests are, surrounded by 6 giants. On the way there, you’ll find three more giants that will notice you if you pass near them. You have two options: ignore them and keep running, or charm/suggest the second one (this one blocks the third and you can defeat the first one easily if fire protected). Ignore the other two (that are fighting), invis again if needed, and move to the last group. There are two giants protecting the chests that you need to get rid of charming them or casting suggestion, so they will block the rest. An Otto’s here or there can be lot of useful (I don’t have Hold Monster yet but I guess that too). Those chests can be ransacked even if the giants are still alive. Do it fast (each one to open each chest, then loot both), and recall or run back if you can. Even if you die, the loot can be worth the small negative XP.
