Where to farm at each level in Knight Online

The number in brackets is the monster's level. Monsters a little above your own level are the most efficient for both EXP and quest progress; go much higher and deaths and potion costs eat the profit.

Zone entry levels come from the game's teleport descriptions: Ardream for 35–59 only (NTTGame removed it from the new servers in November 2022; see Knight Online Ardream: is it closed, what level, how to get there and its monsters), Eslant for 60 and up, Ronark Land for 70 and up. Both sides of Eslant (Karus Eslant and El Morad Eslant) have almost the same monster list.

Delos monster levels and farming in Delos

Delos has two monsters that quests ask for: Phantom (48) and Gloom Hound (58). Both are wanted by [Imperial Palace Guard] Verca (Karus) or Telson (El Morad) in the castle: Phantom Hunt at level 57 pays 30,000,000 EXP, and Groom Hound Hunt at 58 (20 Gloom Hounds) pays 35,000,000. There are [Repeatable Solo] versions too: 30 Phantoms or 30 Gloom Hounds for 6,250,000 EXP each. Delos Castle Dungeon, home of Bloody Krowaz (98), has been closed since NTTGame removed its entry NPC on November 16, 2023. Delos is also the Castle Siege War map on Sundays at 20:30.

Which Eslant quest item drops from which monster?

From 60 to 68, [Ascetic] Veda (Karus) and Tabeth (El Morad) in Eslant ask for items, and the game tells you which monster drops each one. Build your farm route around this:

Eslant quest items: dropping monster and quest reward
ItemDropped by (level)Quest (level)Quest EXP
Medal for the Leader × 5 Dragon Tooth Commander (61) Commending the fallen warriors (60) 67,500,000
Feather of Harpy × 5 Harpy (69) Noises that don't let us sleep (60) 67,500,000
Evidence of Pagan × 10 Apostle (70) Evidence of Pagan (61) 75,000,000
Empty Spirit Armor Piece × 10 Doom Knight (69) Armors without souls (61) 75,000,000
Bones of Troll × 10 Troll (73) Giants Bone (62) 82,500,000
Gargoyle Skin × 10 Ironclaw (69) Skin harder than stone (63) 82,500,000
Staff of Disciple × 10 Apostle of Flame (78) The staff that calls upon the fire, the ice and the storm (64) 90,000,000
Jeweled Horseshoe × 10 Satiros (69) Jeweled horse shoe! (66) 112,500,000
Wings of Harpy × 10 Raven Harpy (70) Noises that don't let us sleep (2) (68) 135,000,000

The Staff of Disciple asked for at level 64 drops from the level 78 Apostle of Flame, so it's easier to park that quest and finish it a few levels later. The level 78–82 hunts (Troll Berserker, Troll Captain, Balrog) want kill counts rather than items.

Farming in the CZ: the Krowaz chain and dailies

On Oreads, Minark and Destan the Krowaz map was closed in May 2023, and Krowaz monsters now spawn in Ronark Land. Kill the Cuff Binders in parts of the map and Giga Hammers appear; kill those and Krowaz appears, with a chance at Krowaz items from all of them. The same update enabled them on Dryads. Server differences for Krowaz and Bifrost are in USKO Krowaz, Bifrost and Eslant: server differences.

There's always PK risk while farming in the CZ. Move your dailies along on the same run: Green Mithril Piece needs 15 kills and [Ronark Land] Defeat 50 Enemies needs 50.

Solo or party farming?

The [Repeatable Solo] quests from 35 to 59 are made for solo farming and can be repeated endlessly. Veda's item quests in Eslant can be done in a party too, while the Eslant dailies can only be taken in a party.

How do you work out farming profit?

With no published drop rates, measure it yourself: take the Noah and the market value of the items you gathered in an hour, then subtract potions, repairs and premium. The worksheet is in Knight Online farming: calculate your net Noah income. Our premium comparison picks DC Premium for farming: +100% Noah and +12 NP (Knight Online Premium types: what EXP, DC, WAR, Gold and Platinum give).
