For the majority of the scene, the T2 difficulty marker is true, nodes give 400 or so experience per, Mobs have under 200 health and give tiny bits of experience. Things get a bit more interesting once you solve the puzzle to the Temple of the Inferno, where ores become T5 nodes giving 5k exp each, and the elementals and skeletons are much harder, at around 400+ health.

The Temple of the Inferno is a decent mining area, with Copper, Iron and Silver veins, and can net someone with an average of Lv80 skills and Quest/Crown store equipment around 350k-550k Adventuring experience and 350k-600k Producer experience, depending on how fast they can solve the puzzle to enter the Temple, or if they spawn inside the Temple.

 

The temple area is good for lava fishing as well. I got my first mossy down there. I hated the change at first but truly like this scene.
