You forgot to mention the top spot in the game for farming… There is no incentive to to anywhere else in game…
You can find anything in the Throne of destruction. It throws you 5 Waves of bosses that can drop it all. Then you get to hit the loot pinata in the end.
I only run end game now… All those places your talking about farming are pretty much redundant to me as my build only needs some runes and whites. Everything else i need people just charsi when they find it in low rolls. LOL
Andy = skill ring farms(5.5X highter than any other bosses for rings)
The only thing i would need from her is an essence since she drop trash for me.
Trav = pure HR farm(hightest %) but not a solid spot for great Uniques
I do hit this from time to time since its easily accessible from the waypoint. But i never ever ever ever find ANYTHING there. Plus BAAL will drop me a wave of these turds in the throne room.
Meph + trav guys in Dur 3 + super chest behind Meph = HR(just as good as Trav) + some good unique from Meph farm
Again this turd isnt dropping anything special either. Just an essence. Throne still superior.
Diablo = Uniques Farm with average chance for HR
Oh look another essence boss for me. Nuff said.
Nilathak = Key farm + average chance for HR + high chance for Uniques
The key ?. Thats all hes dropped for me in like 4 months. Everything else has been charsi food.
Pindleskin = Unique farm + small chance for HR
He got nerfed long long time ago. Not even worth the time. Ive run him several hundred times for nothing already. Ill stick to the throne.
Eldritch&Shenk(small chance for HR + some okay drops)
Arc Sanctuary(dead end super chests for HR + H Key Farm(easier area but not top rewards for uniques//HR)
Waste of time. Your losing XP screwing around with these low level bosses for nothing.
lvl 85 Area for certain super Uniques(ilvl 84+ items)
Chaos Sanc(No 1 spot)
More waste.
The Pit//Ancients Tunnel(No 2 spot)
More waste.
Wolrdstone Keep(No 3 spot due to being a bad idea with the gloams down there)
I do farm here.
I usually just go to worldstone 2 and just walk to baal killing everything in the way. That way im not wasting time farming low bosses for nothing. You have the same opportunity to find it all ,
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY FOR ME
IM NOT WASTING TIME MFING LOW BOSSES FOR TRASH LOOT THAT HASNT DROPPED ANYTHING OF VALUE FOR ME WHEN ITS COSTING ME XP.
I only do TOP end game. Thats it. I cant lose xp to waste time looking for essence to make a token. I can just get a green token and trade it for 2 others. Boom, Skip the trash drops and low drop rates,
See i take the shortcut, Cuz my IQ higher.
