Minecraft Dungeons:Tutorials/Farming

There are various ways to automate or semi-automate the gathering of resources, and even more ways to efficiently and quickly find specific gear. Farming is the process of gathering the resources through the use of repetition and exploiting game mechanics.

Speedrun Farms
Skipping past mobs to get the completion reward, or reliably opening chests is often the fastest way to farm for gear. Using Ghost Cloak in combination with Boots of Swiftness and other speed boosts/cooldown reductions, it's possible to speed through mobs and get the loot without fighting.

Soggy Cave has various skips with rolling and jumping over terrain, but it can be done in less than 30 seconds using an exploit to skip the puzzles. Mouse-clicking on the door to the chest room while pressing the gamepad's "activate" button will ignore the wall normally opened by the puzzles.

Desert Temple has a secret obsidian chest near 2 gold chests. Run to the Key Golem, past the locked door there is a sub-section containing the chests, but there is a bug where the obsidian chest room often cannot be entered, because of the incorrect camera angle.

AFK Farms
Various Locations will have an unlimited supply of enemies spawning and attacking you. Pumpkin Pastures has a section near the end where two switches must be flipped to lower the drawbridge and continue. There are also various places where mob spawners appear.

Scripted
Auto-clickers and macro programs such as Auto Hot Key make it easy to run a script to fight and use abilities.

A simple Experience and Emeralds farming loadout discovered in beta uses Tasty Bones in conjunction with the armor enchant Health Synergy

This can be expanded to be any Summons and the use of Health Synergy armor and optionally a Totem of Regeneration. Since Summons do not provide souls, it is not possible to utilize Soul Healer.

Prospector will increase the Emeralds quite a bit, so if automation is the method, holding attack while in a corner will allow a player to attack enemies as they come, giving the prospector bonus.

Non-Scripted
Health Synergy armor and Final Shout can create an infinite loop, which heals you and activates your artifacts whenever you take enough damage. Of coarse this loadout still needs ways of killing mobs, so a summon or two can be great.
