Act 1 Farming > All Atm - Topic

great guide, tracked

as probably mentioned already, watch tower rarely spawns elites, but does have a resp chest and is a relatively small area. I usually at least find a goblin there, no elites though.

/e---------- I start with Festering Woods to get 2 or 3 quick stacks, I tend to skip running crypts since they take a bit longer (though they are ok, it gets annoying in tight corridors with arcane/waller/desecrator etc) but check for the elite @ cemetary, then leoric, watchtower, + 1 or 2 guaranteed elite packs right after the highlands crossing, run halls warden butcher, repeat

Haven't played extended hours, but have made 3 mil in the last 2 days selling random junk items I've found.

Anyone have luck with 0mf vs mf gear w/ stacks? I hear there's a bug with 0 mf... Also - anyone score legendaries in act 1 ? regardless of quality

I had one game with two legendaries and a set item last night Nat's helm the legendaries were just vendor trash

I don't think they have made any changes to the watch tower. I still find it about every 3 games, and almost every time I go in there it's still 1-3 champ packs + the chest, and often times a goblin as well. I have also had a run after the patch where I got 4 champ packs + chest + goblin. I also got a champ pack guarding the tower entrance, so basically 5 packs.

Or maybe i'm just lucky, we'll see with more runs

Just like to add that The Watchtower hasn't been changed or nerfed - it is totally random. My last 5-10 runs or so I have found the watchtower with maybe 60%+ of the time multiple elite packs. Other times it spawns with just 1x resp chest and/or that mini-event. Rarely (for me) it doesn't spawn at all. Sometimes you have to go straight west or WSW rather than right up northwest from the WP.

Not highland's crossing but as you exit Leoric's Manor, run into the hunting grounds and look for an elite pack, sometimes spawns there. If not, just leave.
