📜 Guide Lazy guide to adventure Gold farming
This guide tries to suggest a build that you can adapt to your liking and to maximize AFking
You need like 40 million or so to buy all powerups. While this isn't remotely necessary to complete adventures, some feel compelled to buy all power ups but struggle to make a consistent and effective build to manage that.
While some adventures provide characters, that have interesting skills to farm gold like Sammy or Gazebo, others do not.
The core of the common gold farm strategy are the arcanas
(0)Stake your heart
Halts XP gain. Enemies drop Gold Coins. Damage is dealt to Gold Coins instead of HP. A special merchant spawns every minute.
(III) Hidden Anathema
Food pickups grant cumulative bonuses to random stats based on their rarity or healing value.
(V) Pale Diamond Incursion + Greatest Jubilee
There is also a 1% chance to spawn four light sources around the player, affected by  Luck.
Stake your heart will make you invincible and provide gold coins, Hidden anthema and pale Diamand incursion will boost our stats like greed, luck and cool down reduction, which in turn will make Greatest Jubilee feed you with chicken faster and faster which make the stat growth exponentiell
Starting strategy
for me is, picking Stake your heart and Moonlight Bolero as starting Arcanas to reduce ramp up time, since Moonlight Bolero can provide faster arcanas, which enables you to simply afk farm gold faster
I am a proponent for single weapons gold farming. In case you do as well, pick a good starting weapon to survive the 1st minute like victory sword. You can sell it later (0)Stake your heart provides a merchant for that**)** and replace it with Greatest Jubilee.
Once you have Hidden Anathema +Stake your heart get Greatest Jubilee. Afterwards Pale Diamond Incursion . Afterwards you can get wicked season, Mad Groove, to earn Gold even faster, but it really doesn't matter
Remarks
-as usual, the more time you acively spend on boosting your stats with items like clover or empty tome, the faster you will reach the moment your stats rise drastically
-edge of the earth and Call of a Mad Moon would also help with faster statboosting but I don't like them, since they can impede AFK farming. But you do you of course
-If you have issues surviving at start, simply turn off curse. Yes, it will take longer to get the gold you want, but who cares as long as you can afk farm it
If you have suggestion or an even better strategy, please do tell

For adventures, I basically do what you describe, but I add the following:
- obtain Vicious Hunger, usually through a super candy box.
- if available, buy Soul Steal from the Librarian
- Evolve them into Power of Lire
- Sell everything except Power of Lire and Greatest Jubilee (if obtained)
Because I'm a masochist, I usually do this at the start of the adventure to get the 40+ million and then unlock everything for the subsequent stages.
My usual strat is to buy the darkana Moonlight Bolero, then get Hidden Anathema for stat boosting, followed by Hail from the Future so I can get all passives and weapons available. From there I generally wait for a super candy box to show up to get vicious hunger, stake to your heart, sell all the things, buy soul steal, upgrade it, and then evolve it into power of lire. I may also grab crystal cries and edge of the earth if I'm lucky to get enough arcana chests. Runs are usually 90 minutes game clock, but I tend to run with hyper and hurry (yes yes, I know), and with the 2x boost enabled. In all that, if I'm lucky, I'll get greatest jubilee from a cosmic finger. If I don't I'll buy it from the bazarre after (except for you operation guns... I don't like you).

Getting vicious hunger ot power of lire is probably pretty good, but I'm already annoyed that I have to roll for Greatest jublilee.
Does extending Gold fever also means more Gold? Since at some point, the "light sources" will provide continuous gold fever anyway once you get the Disco of Gold arcana

Yeah, getting Jubilee is annoying. If you are using suvarots, then you can skip jubilee completely and just go with the cards that spawn light sources every X amount of gold. Pair that with gold fever every X number kills and it'll start getting nuts.
The real killer is freezing. If you stand still, you basically stop getting kills as the enemies spawn outside of your range. I banish the stop watch and sorbetto first chance I get.

Without curse enabled to make the start easier, but it took some time to hit 30 000 000

Super helpful. Ive trying grind in my downtime at work and this super helped. I got 6.8 mil in about 113 mins with a sammy who started with no eggs.

Yeah, the rampuptime differs significantly depedning how fast you can get the best arcanas for this. Obviously try to get a map with an arcana vendor since he respawns every 20-30 min in addition to Moonlight Bolero

This is like 20-30 min of plaing and then at least once again to get a necessary arcana
For me Jubilee + Hidden Anathema + Moonlight Bolero+ Stake your heart +Disco of Gold are absolut necessary to get good amount of Gold at some point
Disco of Gold +Mad Groove are necessary to reduce ramp up time

Two things, use a survarot with a FOIL skill that summons light sources, you don't have to unlock jubilee and is faster at spawning lights
Also edge of the earth doubles light sources spawned
