Farm fresh builds! *Farming focused builds and tips*

[Quindorrian]

I never find a farm build I agree with, lol...  Interesting how people 4+ slot a useless power like boxing and do things like 1 slotting Maneuvers, Tough, and Weave.  Will post my build someday when they get MIDS to work on Mac.  😞

I re-ran the rad/fire test. Across 10 full clears of all 5 rounds of #2915 I averaged 96,734,733 inf/hr. That includes selling down mats as well. Still a respectable amount, but not what it once was.

Depends on the build, you can 4 slot Boxing or Brawl to get +3.75 smashing/lethal. 

Maneuvers/Weave default is 6.38

Maneuvers/Weave slotted 3 each with LoTG, 9.83%.  4 slots, 6 total with the 2 powers.

effectively you spent extra 4 slots in 2 powers to get an additional 3.5% defense.

 

Brawl or Boxing by itself with 3 extra slots, 3.75 (slotting just 1 of the 2)

Maneuvers/Weave default is 6.38, 1 LotG 7.5% recharge each = 7.39%

Brawl 3.75 + Maneuvers/Weave 7.39 = 11.14%.  11.14 - 9.83 = 1.31% more defense.

Effectively, you spend 3  powers for that 1.31% with 1 being a freebie power choice you are already stuck with.   You have 1 spare enhancement slot all together.

 

This is only for smashing/lethal, its just how you build and where you can push that extra slot to get a little more power out of the character.

Have we ever talked about why Scrappers aren't good at this?

They are not as good at farming due to their lower resistance cap, and lack of AoE taunt.  They will always take 15% more damage than a Brute or Tanker, and with lower HPs.

Ah yes, the taunt effect.  That's what I was forgetting about.  Thanks.

So I just learned that Degenerative and Reactive have been fixed to separate the debuff chances.  Does that change the conventional wisdom on what Interface is better?

[SmalltalkJava]

I've been gone for a while is @Brigg's maps still the go to maps for fire farming?     I like the small contained map ones but switch it up on occasions.    I know they nerfed the mentor level 49 inf bonus while i was gone.  Any other changes that I need to know or any tips?

Whenever a new popular map comes up for fire farming i run a few tests against it (like more than 10 arc runs) and average it out. So far tunnels is the only thing that has come close to #2915, but still fell behind by about 8 mil per hour. Even if they were equal or close I'd still run #2915 as preference.

Does anyone have a non-purple, non-pvp StreetJ/Fire build?

[Nightstrider]

Does anyone have the rad/fire builds from here? I can't get the ones listed to pull to Mids.

 

Thank you!

Just ran this one again to test. #2915 runs at about 92mil inf/hour still. Also, you can keep plasma shield turned off to improve end.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I can't get this one to pull up either. Is it because it doesn't have the import code at the bottom?

I've noticed Chrome doesn't always like the data links. You may have to right click, save as to open it. Or Allow it in a security setting. or perhaps use a different browser. I'm using Mid's Reborn from here and they also have a discord. There may be further tech support in there:

Can someone explain to me why the Spines/Fire build in the OP thread picks up Taunt? It doesn't seem like anyone on the servers is using that or impale. I am really looking for the best Spines/Fire build and I thought that would be it but I can't understand some of the choices? Is this just an outdated build? And we've moved on since this was originally made? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Some of the powers don't end up being used in the rotation during farming, but benefit from the invention enhancement sets that provide additional fire defense. I believe Perfect Zinger is the set.

So why Vengeance? It only procs when a team falls right? Why not Victory rush?

The enhancement that is slotted in Vengeance adds 10% global recharge. It's from the Luck of the Gambler defense invention origin set. This  global recharge buff is always active when slotted and you can have up to five total in a character build.

Thanks so much! in impale there's a Superior Winter's Bite set and in Taunt there's a Mocking Beratement set. But there's another Mocking Beratement set in Consume. Didn't know you'd need two of those. but thanks again for your response!

Ah okay, what I usually do if someone posts a build, really any build not just farming, is look at the set bonuses that are achieved with that particular slotting.

Just my two cents, but I hate spines. I find the sound of quills to be unbearable.
