“They’re definitely watching us!” 🕵️‍♂️ Pearl Abyss is patching farms in real-time—ACT FAST!

Just days after the community discovered the Lasia fast-travel exploit, the devs moved the spawn point to kill the loop. But we’ve already found two new “Infinite Chest” locations that are even more broken. We’re talking 6 Tier 4 chests every single minute, loaded with ores, gears, and rare crafting mats.

There is a secret “Cave of Five” near Malurea that resets indefinitely, but some players are finding their chests aren’t respawning. Is your game bugged, or is it just your graphics settings? We’ve found the specific PC/Console preset that forces the world to reset every time you fast travel.

It’s a game of digital cat-and-mouse in the world of Pywel. As Pearl Abyss developers work around the clock to move fast-travel points and nerf “overpowered” loot loops, players are staying one step ahead with two newly discovered “broken” farms that offer infinite Tier 4 gear.

The discovery comes just days after a popular farm in Lasia was unceremoniously shut down by a stealth update that moved a fast-travel point ten meters to the right—just far enough to ruin the efficiency. But the community has already pivoted, and the new targets are even more lucrative.

The Cave of Five (South of Malurea) The primary destination for gear hunters is a newly mapped cave located south of Malurea. By unlocking a specific fast-travel point and heading to a nearby rock formation, players can use their Focus Force Palm to blast open a hidden entrance.

Inside, five chests (including two Tier 4s) await. According to prominent community members like DPJ, this loop can be completed in under 60 seconds. “You grab the loot, fast travel back to the point, and the cave entrance—and the chests—reset instantly,” sources report.

The ‘Graphics Setting’ Secret However, the farm isn’t working for everyone. A growing number of players on Reddit have complained that their chests aren’t respawning.

The fix? It appears the game’s world-reset mechanic is tied to hardware performance. Players on PlayStation are finding that switching to “Performance Mode” fixes the respawn issue, while PC players are being urged to switch to “Custom” settings. “If you’re on Ultra and your FPS is low, the game might not register the reset,” one expert warned.

The Ashen Rift ‘Out of Bounds’ Glitch The second farm is even more bizarre, located in the Ashen Rift within the Crimson Desert. This loop utilizes the game’s “Out of Bounds” timer to force a reset.

Players drop into a specific rock formation to loot three Tier 4 chests.

They then sprint toward a nearby ranch to loot a fourth chest and three crates of meat (offering 30 free meat per run).

If the player stays in the “Out of Bounds” zone until the 30-second timer hits zero, they are teleported back to the rift with all loot intact and the chests fully respawned.

A Race Against Time Industry analysts expect these farms to be short-lived. Pearl Abyss has shown a willingness to relocate NPCs and fast-travel markers specifically to curb this kind of hyper-efficient farming. For now, the “Gold Rush” is on, and players are stockpiling everything from Bloodstone to Silver and Gold before the next patch hits the servers.

Whether you’re looking for endgame armor or just enough meat to feed a tiger mount, the message from the community is clear: “Take advantage of it while it’s still broken.”
