farm for demonics first... i'd say 30 to 50. if you get bored, you can switch it up and go for plans... if you run out of patience and still don't have dex plans, buy the shoulder plans and see how that goes...

I'm not too familiar with the new update yet, but is there different strategies for farming demonic essences and plans? Or can you farm both at the same time?

plans are cheap, no need to farm them.

most people just do vault runs to farm the essences.

So just do vault of the assassin over and over? Nv stacks don't help it?

probably best idea; act 2 has better elite density than act 3, actually, and you don't need 5 stacks for essences...

vault and a few way points have 1 or 2 guaranteed elites within a short distance... i haven't farmed it for a while, so i dunno the names off the top of my head... but i think the first waypoint has 2 elites hanging around, the 3rd has 1 and path to dalghur has 1 or 2 elites hiding in the sewers...

I made some decent gold the first 2 days selling plans.
It so cheap now ... Mar gem plans are also cheap.

yeah, i do keywarden too but if your just farming essences its probly faster to stcik to vault.

but like make sure your clearing it, people tend to miss alot of the off shoots where the elites are, if they arnt familair with vault farming.

you should be killing 8+ elites per run.

Ok, I was doing vault runs when I stopped playing like 8 months ago our something... and I hear that keywarden has such a small drop chance on anything before mp4 that it's not really worth finding. But I do need a hellfire ring :/

We should do some vault kw runs. We are so stacked on act 3 keys lol
