a treasure goblin just popped out of a cocooned victim in caverns of arcanae ...

guess opening those things kind of are important now

Nope, it's always the same cocoon. Has a 50 or so % chance to spawn a goblin.

I dont know how I feel about farming act 1. I mean its a 2% chance... So every 50 blues/yellow you get one ilvl63. I dont know how I feel about it.

I've been farming Act 2 for now. It's not always easy but I do find a good handful of lvl63 items.

If you want the best chance to find the best items in the game, you farm Act 1. If you just happen to like playing in other acts, thats fine. Just know, your chances of finding iLvl 63 items is HIGHEST in Act 1.

I get at least 1 lvl 63 per A1 run and my run isn't even that long.

so do u guys think the fields of misery is good? how aobut the halls of agony?

I know the numbers are given by Blizz, but I did one A1 run in 30 minutes.

I found 3 ilvl 63s and sold them for 9 million on the AH (after tax).

I did multiple Siege runs today (~6-7?) and pretty much got total of 2.5 million worth of items.

The runs only take me 20-25 minutes on my barb, but it is quite boring to do multiple times.

I feel like the breeze through elites in A1 and the number of elites you can bump into makes you truly benefit more in the long run, UNLESS you can walk through A3 already, then more power to you.

I can rambo anything in A1 and A2 solo, and A3 tends to still need a bit of kiting/dodging for my barb, although I do plan to upgrade plenty of my items soon with ~30 million gold.

Field of misery has several elite packs in it, plus a dungeon or two with possible chests, but the problem I have with it is it's a lot of running around. I prefer to just farm the spots where I know there are elite packs nearby. My typical run takes 1 hour, I kill 18-22 elite packs, and I don't do fields of misery.

i just did leoric 1
watch tower 1
crypts 4
festering 4

that's 10 how u get 18-22?

Took me like 15min.

got 1 62
5 61's
rest 60 and below.

311 mf with 5nv swapped out. Seems kinda bad. Really wonder if i should attempt somewhere else. (have hard time at ponies now with dh nerf, with erflect damage it is hard, with reflect + teleport or reflect + shielding = impossible.

Need help finding more spots

@refinery u say u got 3 lvl 63 that's pretty lucky in 30 minutes? How many elites do u do in act 1 and where do u run.

I clear a1 festering woods, start at crypts quest, and finish the act from there only gear swapping into my real gear for butcher early on and then back into mf for the final blow. Otherwise I stay in 300+ mf at all times WITHOUT neph buff and kill shit. Gear swapping is for chumps.
