On an avg, no hurry carnival map run - I’m hitting around 700k a minute. 42mill an hour (straight inf. Drops not included) - and there are many farmers doing a lot more than that.
Now don’t get me wrong here.
I’m not saying farming is better than marketing - just that it is very much possible to make a lot of influence doing either.
For reference, I’ve been farming for 3 1/2 years. Usually solo, with the purpose of amassing influence to fund alts.
I have less than 50 alts and don’t buy IO’s for them until they hit 50 - which is roughly half my alts.
So basically I farm and stockpile influence.
I didn’t even realize how much I had amassed until a few weeks ago, when I got curious.
When I first started farming, I would run for hours and hours. Not so much anymore.
Its just a way to play the game until something comes along I want to join - or I decide to run my own TF.
