9/19/2025 5:39:40 PM

If you’re a fan of Path of Exile 2 (PoE 2) and want to learn how to farm expedition logbooks effectively, you’re in the right place! In this guide, we’ll explain everything about PoE 2 0.3 expedition farming, focusing on how to make currency fast, especially for the new league - Rise of the Abyssal.

What Are Expedition Logbooks?

Expedition logbooks are special items in PoE 2 that let you enter maps filled with chests and monsters. These maps are great for farming valuable loot like runic splintersdivine orbs, and special artifacts. Farming these logbooks can be very profitable if you know the right techniques.

Why Farm Expedition Logbooks?

  • High-value loot: You can get runic splinters, which are valuable currency items used to exchange for divine orbs.

  • Artifacts: Artifacts like the Black Scythe or Sun artifacts are rare and very profitable.

  • Base items: You can also get level 81 bases, which are used for crafting high-level gear.

  • Multiple currency drops: Besides splinters, you can find perfect jewels, divine orbs, and even unique items.

Important! Expedition farming is much easier if you spec your character correctly and use the right logbooks. We'll cover how to do this below.

How to Prepare for Expedition Farming

Before running expeditions, you need to prepare your character and gear:

1. Choose the Right Passive Tree Nodes

When you spend expedition points, make sure to pick these four important nodes:

  • +1 to area level with four implicits: Boosts the difficulty and rewards of the area.

  • More runic monsters: Increases the amount of monsters that drop logbooks.

  • Increase remnant effects: Remnants buff monsters, making the fight more rewarding.

  • Add suffixes and prefixes to remnants: Makes monsters stronger but increases loot quality.

2. Use the Right Tablet in Your Tower

Socket the Duplicating Tablet in your tower. This duplicates all runic monsters, doubling your chance to get loot from them.

3. Choose the Best Logbooks to Run

Look for logbooks that have the stat: Area contains 8 to 16 additional chest markers. These chests can have currency, equipment, or artifacts. Artifacts are especially valuable because they drop runic splinters.

Tip: If you can’t find logbooks with extra chest markers, run ones with artifact chests for Black Scythe merchants or Sun artifacts. These artifacts are very profitable!

How to Run Expedition Logbooks Efficiently

When you enter an expedition map:

  • Look for currency chests and artifact chests. These give the best loot.

  • Use explosives to open caves and access hidden chests.

  • Aim to hit as many remnants as possible to buff monsters and increase loot.

  • Avoid remnants that make monsters immune to your damage type (for example, if you use lightning damage, avoid remnants that cause immunity to lightning).

  • Follow the trail of chests to finish the map quickly.

Remember, you can die as many times as you want inside the expedition portals without them disappearing, so don’t be afraid to experiment and learn!

What Loot Can You Expect?

From 65 logbooks farmed, here’s what you can typically find:

  • Runic splinters — worth about 1.5 splinters per exalted orb

  • Divine orbs — very valuable crafting currency

  • Perfect jewels and perfect regals — rare and expensive crafting materials

  • Artifacts — Black Scythe, Sun, and others, which can be exchanged for valuable items

  • Base items — level 81 bows, quivers, belts, and rings, worth a good amount of currency

  • Unique items and crafting materials

Note: Some items like Hinora’s Lock are super rare (almost as rare as mirrors!) so don’t expect to get them often, but they add huge profit when they drop.

How Much Profit Can You Make?

Using the example from farming 65 logbooks:

  • Total loot value (excluding rare drops) = around 58 divines (~1,300 exalts)

  • Runic splinters alone worth about 33 divines

  • Artifacts worth about 2.6 divines

  • Base items and crafting materials add more profit

  • Cost of buying 65 logbooks (at 50 exalts each) is about 16 divines

  • Net profit = approximately 42 divines

This means expedition farming is highly profitable, especially if you invest in gear that increases item rarity.

Tips to Increase Your Farming Success

  • Increase item rarity on your gear: This will increase the drop rate of valuable items.

  • Pick logbooks with extra chest markers: More chests mean more loot.

  • Avoid immune remnants: Keep your build flexible and avoid remnants that make monsters immune to your damage.

  • Practice your route: Learn the best path to hit the maximum number of chests quickly.

  • Keep an eye on market prices: Artifacts and splinters prices can fluctuate, so sell wisely.

Final Thoughts

Expedition farming in PoE 2 0.3 is one of the best ways to make PoE 2 currency for Rise of the Abyssal league. With the right setup, good logbooks, and a solid farming strategy, you can earn a lot of divines and exalts steadily. Even if you don’t get lucky with rare drops, the consistent income from splinters, artifacts, and bases makes this a worthwhile activity.

So, gear up, pick your logbooks carefully, and start farming those expeditions! Good luck and enjoy the riches of Wraeclast!
