Best XP / Cola per stamnia

What is the best way to get XP (for your characters, not towards your pirate level) and Cola? I hear some people talk about farming turtles, but I tend to get more XP for my crew by getting random characters to drop then it takes to get 1 turtle to drop.

What is everyone else doing?

Turtles is typically the best way

1 Teenage Turtle = 22500 XP for same color which is about 10 normal characters (the random ones seem to average at 2250 for me mostly) and 15000 for any other color which would be ~8 non matching colored randoms (most of my randoms I use give 1800 per)

Cola is all luck since every single round and character on the map has a chance to give cola, even the bosses. The best maps for the most possible cola with good xp would be the ones with more rounds (i.e. Arlong Park 15, 10 chances for Cola)

Best way is the special event island for xp as even turtles don't always drop, getting one is equivalent to seven to eight random character.

For cola I tend to get more doing storry mode.

I personally farm turtle at special event only. Higher drop rate and good beli.
