How is gold per hour calculated?

Each method has a base rate per hour. The tool multiplies that base rate by your gear multiplier, then scales it to your session length using rate x (minutes / 60). Results are sorted highest-first.

Why does gear level change the output?

Higher gear clears faster and triggers more drops per minute, so a gear multiplier above 1.0 raises every method's effective rate. The multiplier applies uniformly so route ranking stays comparable.

Are these exact in-game numbers?

The base rates are realistic planning estimates, not server-exact values. Use them to compare routes against each other rather than as a precise per-run guarantee.

What does the efficiency rank mean?

Methods are sorted by adjusted gold per hour. Rank 1 is the most efficient route for your gear; lower ranks earn less per hour but may suit different content or risk levels.

Can I plan a short session?

Yes. Enter any minute value and the session total scales linearly, so a 25-minute run shows roughly 0.42x the hourly rate for each method.

Plan the fastest currency route

Farming in-game currency efficiently means picking the method with the best yield per hour for your current gear — not just the one that feels fast. This calculator takes a list of common farming methods, each with a realistic base hourly rate, and adjusts them for your gear power and the length of the session you actually have time for.

How it works

Each method stores a baseRate measured in currency per hour at neutral gear (multiplier 1.0). The adjusted rate is:

adjustedPerHour = baseRate × gearMultiplier
sessionTotal    = adjustedPerHour × (minutes ÷ 60)

The tool computes this for every method, sorts descending by adjustedPerHour, and ranks them. Because the gear multiplier applies to every method equally, the ranking tells you which route is genuinely best for your build — gear can change the totals but the relative efficiency order stays meaningful.

Tips and example

If you have 90 minutes and a gear multiplier of 1.25, a method with a 12,000/hr base rate yields 12000 × 1.25 = 15,000/hr, and over 90 minutes that is 15000 × 1.5 = 22,500 currency. Compare that against a 9,000/hr method on the same gear and you can see the route choice is worth thousands of currency per session. Always re-check after a gear upgrade — a faster-clearing method can leapfrog a slower one once your multiplier rises.
