Great Tree

Levels 2200-2275 put the Great Tree near the back end of Sea 3's grind, and the towering trunk itself sets the tone: this is one of the late-game stops before you finish the Third Sea's climb. The enemies you cut through here are the Lost Soul and the Soul Reaper, ghostly NPCs that scale to this bracket and provide the steady experience you need to push toward the cap. What makes the Great Tree worth lingering on, though, is the loot. This is a Yama drop area, so if you're hunting that sword you'll want to farm here, and it doubles as Greybeard prep thanks to the Greybeard Drop that surfaces on the tree. A couple of practical notes: clear the Lost Soul and Soul Reaper spawns in loops rather than chasing one-offs, since consistent kills keep your XP flowing while you wait on drops. And treat the visit as dual-purpose — grind your level toward 2275 while you're already farming the drops, so you're not backtracking once you've got what you came for.
