Perhaps a stupid question but : why farm missions are "fire" ?

[YamaKing]

Almost all is in the title, just to understand why almost all farming missions are "fire" oriented ?

I think one of the main reason is that the "fire" powers have a lot of damage auras and AOE attacks in them, so they make a good choice for powersets for farming. They also have powers that make it pretty easy to max out fire defense and resistance which is needed in order to farm effectively.

Thanks i get a better understanding 😉

Fire attacks don't carry debuffs that would disrupt the farmer's defensive matrix or slow their harvest.  The farmer itself can be anything from a basic Fire Armor brute to a Elec Armor tank, even a blaster or corruptor.  45% fire (or positional) defense, maximized fire resistance, and go.  Your regen and defenses won't be stripped, your heals will recharge like normal.

Also,  it's extremely easy for Fire Armor to max out their Fire resist; you can do it with just SOs. This allows new players to easily jump on the levelling train.

Many thanks for your answers, i didn't usually get into those optimizations until end levels 😉

My kind of gameplay is to enjoy and learn to play the arch until last levels then go for opti 😛

Thanks again for enlighting poor me 😅
