After the update that made the AI smarter everyone thought that farming was impossible and people still say it's impossible, well it's not.


Got this on my first troll run after the update.

All that update did was make the AI smarter, you can still farm. I'm really getting sick of people saying it is impossible to farm. So I decided to post some screens so maybe some people will stop whining. The only thing that has really changed is the amount of time it takes to do runs and even then it still doesn't take that long.





I would like to see some other screen shots of people farming the smarter AI.

when people say it's impossible, they probably mean that it just takes a long RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing time to farm making it a waste of time

So? I've used my heros to farm before and after the AI changes.

Still pointless farming with heros since the take their fair share of the goodies... solo farming is still the best way to go.

You have always been able to farm.. It's just that alot of the current farming builds were nerfed. Us rangers still have FoW!

Anyone can farm Trolls, Vermin, etc after the update.

It just takes so much longer than before that people have deemed it worthless to continue it over now more profitable ventures.

I've successfully farmed the troll cave multiple times but I haven't tried vermin yet. But it takes so much longer I could proably make more money going around in explorable areas with full parties of 8. 0.o

Yeah...farming is by no means impossible, it's just a lot more annoying than it was before. Thus, people move on and try to find other things to do for money.
