Elite MI farming is new meta boyz.

Subj, curently the best place to farm MIs is Elite. Yes, Elite. You get better rolls due to lover level of lootbags and farm faster, there is absolutely no reason to farm green items on ultimate.
MB something must be done with retarded drops on Ultimate?

Not to mention lvl 82 Off-hand farming for lower spirit req vs very minor stat loss.

It’s how i roll my Yeti horn:)

And this too. Not just better rolls but better items. This suck so much :furious:

What kind of ratio between magic only : one rare : two rare affixes are you seeing in elite on Nemesis and Guardian pants/shoulders? Since the last hotfix I’m about 2:3 (with no double rares) in Ultimate.

I admit I haven’t been keeping track of other types of MIs - many of the common ones seem to skew much more towards being trash.

But you lower your legendary drop rate by farming in Elite.

Safe to say whoever farms MI’s a lot already has the needed Legendary items.

Indeed.

BTW, for some MI’s, it’s far easier and faster to farm Crucible, rather than search for those bosses. Nemesises, in particular. And i feel that farming Challenger is more effective in that regard, too.

Better rolls?

You have about a 33% higher chance on Ultimate to roll a double Rare, and a roughly 80% higher chance of rolling a Rare affix.

What do you mean by “retarded drops on Ultimate”?

I think they mean that having lower level affixes/MIs drop is much better for them as they save valuable stat points since lower level MI probably has lesser stat requirement and the tradeoff is rather small as you loose some extra bonuses which aren’t all that important.

I think this just shows how punishing the stats requirements on some items especially Caster items is and how far some are willing to go to save their stat points. Ptirodaktill made a separate thread requesting for that to be addressed btw

Hope what I said didn’t get lost in translation

not sure that was ever not the case…

I stick to ultimate, i don’t wanna fall asleep :blush:

But the problem is, rare affix doesnt mean the item will be more powerful, most of the time. The majority of rare affixes are just trash, and some magic affixes are very powerful and desired for majority of build. For example, “of Attack” rare suffix on ring is literally a MUST-HAVE for any build that uses rare rings (except retaliators or summoners). Why no rare affix can compete with that, even remotedly? Yes, they give random stats here and there, but often, those arent need, while OA, the MOST important stat ever, is almost non-existant on mods (they provide ~3 times less OA than “of attack does”).

Which, again, you have a higher chance of actually getting to drop on Ultimate.
