You don't need anything to be effective at doing this. You don't need tonics, you don't even need ammo. Everything is provided. It is solo friendly.

Arguably this is one of the best methods of EXP Farming by combat, possibly better than Thieve's Landing farm because of Gold and Free Resources, and ease of it. Mentioned in this guide:

If you are using KB+M make sure to enable Free Aim in Controller Lock On Settings. So you get extra 20 EXP per kill. It ends up being A LOT.

That is easy. What you have to do is just kill npcs until you get about 50 kills (that is around wave 3). You get all the ammo from crates and don't need to use tonics because enemies are weak on those stages and you get free first aid kits lying around the map.

Why 50 kills? No, it is not to maximize gold gains. No. When mode 1st came out you would receive max exp until the final wave. Now you get reduce exp of 5 for each kill after 50 kills, as if you are killing police. That is not good. Some of the other bonuses do not work too. Not only Free Aim bonus.

Since 50 kills is around wave 3, depending on the amount stolen by NPC teammates, you can get to the start of wave 4 and kill yourself there for more gold reward. Since there only going to be a few enemies left in wave 3 anyway, however, if you are only after EXP, it is faster to restart in wave 3.

You also get 10 dollars and 0.20 Gold Bars per attempt

To restart die to enemies or blow yourself up with dynamite



Don't bother healing allies, if they die, it is better because all they do is steal your kills, your exp and waste your time



Results: Maxed pass within a short time, steady amount of weak enemies, free ammo and healing, gold and pocket change cash.
