As the name implies, i'm trying to find some people who are down to do some inferno farming runs. Mostly going to be farming Act 1 elite mobs. Whisper me in game or post your info here if you're interested.

What's the point? Aspect farming in act 4 is 100 times easier, safer, more rewarding, and will likely get patched soon, so do it while you can! I've made 1-2 mil gold per hour doing them, running 179 base magic find and 20k dps. Trick is to ignore leah/mira and only do the butterfly chick and the blood dude(forgot both their names).

Can you elaborate on this? |

Step 1: Stock up on base magic find since you won't be getting any neph buffs. Each class will be different but here's my magic find stats/dps/vit when doing these runs: http://i.imgur.com/B8Aqt.jpg
Step 2: Start the prime evil quest and waypoint to the Crystal Colonadde.
Step 3: Just run past every single portal ignoring every mob(they won't hit you) until you get to level 1 of the silver spire. There are 3 possible spawns here : butterfly chick, blood guy, mira.
Step 4: Talk to whoever spawns and kill them, you will probably have to ignore mira and just relog if she spawns.
Step 5: Enjoy the easiest and most broken farm in the game that will definitely get patched very soon, otherwise this game is duuuuuumb.
Note: This can be done even if you haven't unlocked act 4. Simply just choose the quest on hell -> leave game -> join pub -> leave game -> play it on inferno.
What's worse is that as DH there are ways to glitch the blood dude so you take 0 damage, and the butterfly chick only attacks Tyrael. ZERO effort farming.

| What makes those guys preferable to farm over other locations in the game? I guess I just don't follow on what makes them so special. |

They take less than 20 seconds to kill. Champions/elites take WAY longer, and you have to go find them. |

| Yeah put that together just a bit ago. Running about 90-100 MF giving it a go, but not finding so much as a rare after 5 or so runs. RNG I'm guessing. Last edit: 2012-05-22 16:38:25 |

I just tried this spot after reading this post, with 190 base magic find, i've done this method like 7 times now and i've gotten all trash blues. I get better loot off champion packs every time |

| How many champion packs would you have killed in those 7 times? You can do this like 30-40 times an hour if you are fast. I've gotten 6 items with 900+ dps now, and bought out most of the top-end gear available. And yeah you farm this mainly for the weapons and occasional unique/set. If you want yellow armors you are better off act 3 boss running. This method is meant to be easy simple and effortless, no need to kite for hours. Also remember you have no neph buff while doing this, so it is normal for other mobs to give better shit, although your mf is quite high as well. Last edit: 2012-05-22 16:50:02 |

May be easier, but the loot you get is alot worse.. you get better loot from act 1 inferno then this spot, just my pinon, best thing i got was a 700 dps 1h axe after like 30 attempts, took me like 1 hour and 30 minutes with a geared DH. Not worth the time investment in my opinion, go out and play the game, you'll get better loot anyways, unless you want to bore yourself to death with crappy loot. |

| Meh I've done 10+ 5 neph stack butcher runs and they don't even compare to the amount of gold I've gotten here. Guess we are just lucky in different spots (: |

| I just keep any MF gear I find and switch right before I kill a mob. Takes a little practice and the more you get the longer it takes to switch but it can give you a huge boost to your MF. I think I have somewhere around 140% without the Nef buff. |

If you are lvl 60 the Nephalem buff is more than sufficient. Just keep and eye out and don't break down gear with MF on it, that is all I did good luck! |

Hopefully Blizzard will fix that, that is definitely not how magic find items are supposed to be used. |

yeah but the highest nephalem buff i got in act IV was 3 and my magic/gold find was ~60%. but okay, i will try to farm the shit out of act IV hell, until i gear up well to take on inferno. |
