just read start to finish
congrats on Guardian and Engima!
Are you going to play him in Farmathon to round out the rest of his gear?

I'm curious about your LK strategy. Your runs were super fast hitting primarily the superchests. Do you find this more advantageous than a slightly longer map with more poppables along the way? I'm wondernig because I have only done LK grind once for my zon's faith + forti and my map was a little more mixed. Most of my HRs were from poppables. So on my current toon, I have maybe 25 poppables along the way (admittedly it is a bigger map/longer run than I wish). Think this is too excessive or worth a shot? I know its all RNG but I'm wondering if there is a sweet spot? Current toon has found um, pul, and 2x ohm in 170 runs....all from poppables lol.



Thanks! And yah he will be my farmathon char.

i usually like to hit poppables along the way as well but that’s pure rng as to weather they will spit runes up or not.

The super chests have set patterns and guaranteed hrs to fly from them so I was just trying to limit the amount of chance and aim for eventual guaranteed runes with enough chests opened. Granted a lot of it is still rng with the chests but it seemed like the better route to go with the time crunch I had.

After watching a couple other people complete there enigmas over the last couple days with random poppables giving up ber runes it was tough to stick to just the chests. Paid off in the end regardless though so whatever lol

I’d probably stick to popping poppables if I had more time since it helps with the mental side of it plus cool uniques have a chance to drop. I would shorten the map up though. Poppables should just be an addition to the super chests not the other way around

+1 to that, besides that one Ber I got from a random basket, nearly all of the juicy runes come from superchests.

If there's poppables on the way between campfires, so long as it's not going out of the way, I hit them whilst running through. My aim was just to hit as many superchests in as little time as possible!

damn thats a sick rate for just 170 runs man

Right? Definitely not expecting it to continue but it does make me wonder. Didn't mest used to do full LK runs? Unfortunately nobody knows what was legit there so not sure if it's be useful data.

I will live vicariously thru Ghosty in farmathon!

Definitely useful feedback. I know when I watch your LK run I realized mine is far too long. I think this made me realize it's play style preference. Props for picking your method and busting it out!

What will be your farming plan for now/farm? CS? Pits?
Edit** also you did this in 9 days!!!! Beast mode hah!

This has convinced me to start tracking not just runs and runes but also what the runes came from. Then again, TIME spent in LK is the ultimate goal to minimize. So who is making the spreadsheet? Me? Ok

Thanks again man!

Mephy until the farmathon. Would love an arach and shako.. for the farmathon just pits. I still work full time and pits gives me a decent shot at a lucky rng drop to boost my score
