Farm Favorites

[Healix]

I have a favorite fire farm...4880-OSHA Academy. It is an open outdoor area, and the mobs don't wander, keeping sitters safer. The XP is really great, and the drops are pretty good.

I would like to find a non-fire farm that I like as much. Does anyone have a suggestion?

 

If you have a favorite, you can post here to help others. Describe what kind, the name/number, and why you like it. 😀

I have used the same one since the major change to fire farms a couple? Years ago.  It is on Excelsior and is called “a longer road” or something like that.  I just search longer road.  It is the S curve tunnel like from the start of market crash. It is a Fire Farm and takes me about 10 min to lazily clear at 4/8.  12 if i am really distracted.  If i GRIND (and i never do) i can get my main acct new level 1 to 50 and alpha opened up in about 4 hours using my alt acct farmer.  I generally take long breaks and run half hour to an hour at a time.  But I really do not need 50s anymore and enjoy leveling through TF/SF/Trials. That is the best way for me.  I will use the farmer to kick to 15 then start. Then at 40-45 there is either a random pug itf or drop back into farm.  Not enough late game SF/TF/Trials to 50 from 35-50.  So i sweeten the mix with a 10-20 min of farming here and there.

I'm kinda like @Snarky (I'll take 'Things I never thought I'd say for $100, Alex!) in that I don't do a lot of farming.  When I start an alt with powersets I've already used, I'll farm them up (alt farming account, main leveling account) so I can get them useful proc IO's before sending them out into the city.

 

Most often I'd use the Angelbot Meteor Map (51289) or the Comicon Asteroid (2915) missions.  They can be a bit dangerous for sitters because the mobs do wander and you have to remember to hit the glowie before going afk or you'll get timed/kicked out but they're good xp and drops, IMHO. 

 

I've joined some SG/Coalition farming teams and a popular one seems to be a Carnie map (47308) as the mobs don't wander about like the asteroid and meteor maps.

I don't grind for INF.  I do like occasionally testing myself in AE or joining a farmer to provide entertainment through chat and faceplants.  Sometimes I like to relax, turn off the brain and repeat a few runs in a farm.

 

My favorite non fire farm is "Easy Farming S/L even Squish Toons by @Mass Destruction ID 20474."  It is a small outdoor city map with followers of Bobcat to mow down.

 

My all-time favorite is "Noobz Fire Farm by @Jeanny ID 20440."  The names of the Noobz we have to fight just crack me up.

"A Longer Road Home by @InzerSBD ID 52234."  I was going to ask if AE missions were local to one server, or universal.  I hopped on Excelsior and Indomitable.  All AE missions I saw were on both servers.  So, without even asking I'll answer "universal."

The rare times I farm, I do any of @Xtomic maps. They are classics and very rewarding.

I just wanted to thank Snarky and Decoy for their great suggestions..I really like them both! (Easy Farming and Longer Road)

I love the Noobz office building one - the names are hilarious

I'll check it out!

For very low levels waiting for a farm, try the Tunnel Witches (type into search at the console). Stay close to the wall and run to the rear, to get a helper NPC. It has great XP and will help you level fast.

My favorite S/L farms are the "Orb" ones by @Krimson.  There are non-EB and EB versions.  Both are on the Dreck map, so sitters are pretty safe.  Dreck map also means LOTS and LOTS of baddies to vanquish.

I don't normally post here but I removed the EBs from all the farms. EBs do not give enough XP/INF for the amount of time it takes to fight them. You're better off just having lots of bosses, which my farms have now. They are all the same Smashing/Lethal enemies using a variety of sets because S/L lets you use more than one set.

After the changes to fire melee broke the arcs I usually used, I made my own.  #55870, on the Croatoa farm map with a bunch of pumpkins come-to-life.
