How about a fire/kin?

It can work. Melee works better in my experience for wall farming though.
Romans hurt!

I tear it up on my AR/EM blaster.. Most of the brutes/tanks/scrappers have trouble keeping pace. The only things limiting my speed are the recharge of Build-Up and the animation time of Full-Auto & Flamethrower.

Wow I bet that would work well they are already in perfect position.. but I still like my tankie!!!

The way soloing the wall spews Inspirations anything with a big pile of AoE attacks works fine.

Yep. dont be shy. Chew chew chew that tray of candies. Any AoE character with a good pace of killing will do once you have a few purples and reds in your belly.

AR/Ment , Arch/Ment ftw
I use to farm the wall all the time using my Fire/Kin but since i14, it seems the drop rate has really gone down. I've spent hours upon hours farming w/o a single purple drop where-as before i14, I could get at least 1 if not multiples over the same time-frame.
If you have 2 accounts and can run 2 fire/kins on the wall, its REALLY easy. Set the one kin on follow with auto cages and the lines won't move.

This...
and 2 Psi Doms are good too, but not quite as much since Dom2.0
Repeat Offenders
I run a Fire/Mental here for wall farming. The builds I've seen on par with his speed (blueside) are Shield/SS/pyre or Shield/Fire/Pyre tanks. AR/Mental blasters.
One I get into running fast, the spawn can be dropped LTs and all in 10 to 12 seconds. (Including all animation time) BU (or Aim, want them staggered)/Fire Breath/Psi Scream = Dead Minions in the cone (and they are all lined up nice) BLaze blast or ball to take care of anything thats left.
Inspirations also drop inanely fast, I usually just keep my first row open and jam f1 as they drop.
I got an Apocalypse Proc just earlier off a LGTF.
Dreams really DO come true
Or maybe my dumb luck kicked in.
This is going to be a silly question, but I'm just back after a long break, so please don't destroy me:
Can you get purple drops off of ANY level 47+ mobs or is it only specific types?

A bunch of toons! (Freedom, Virtue, and a few on Infinity)
Thank you both for the answer.
I like the wall personally, Sit there, farm for an half an hour, hour or so, grab an ITF, switch to another AoE toon and rinse and repeat
I can concur.
A decently equipped Fire/Ice tank (burn aura/ice melee) works very nicely
for "wall-dusting"....

I've been rich, and I've been poor. Rich is definitely better.
Light is faster than sound - that's why some people look smart until they speak.
For every seller who leaves the market dirty stinkin' rich,
there's a buyer who leaves the market dirty stinkin' IOed. - Obitus.
I use my fire/kin and she hasn't died yet. Pretty easy with her. The drop rate does seem to be down though. Even the regular inv. recipes arent dropping like they did a couple months ago.
I also have a demon farm set at 49. My cousin got 2 purps off it in 2 days. Me, none. The inf isnt as high, but with the speed i can run it 2 times compared to once with it at 52. Also, the new bosses in it help some on more inf.
So was the purple drop stealth patched? Maybe it hit a "bug" like PVP IOs?
Fun story - I was doing an ITF on my Bane but because no one else was in the zone yet, I hopped over to the wall to kill a few mobs. First kill got me an Unbreakable Constraint. That's my second purple since I14, and the first was under equally lucky circumstances - my Stalker had gone 1-50 almost entirely in MA missions, and when I was doing Mako's patron arc, the first Longbow I killed dropped the Hecatomb proc.
"One day we all may see each other elsewhere. In Tyria, in Azeroth. We may pass each other and never know it. And that's sad. But if nothing else, we'll still have Rhode Island."
Glad to here they are still dropping.
So what do you think prices will be at once we can set the missions for 8 people even solo? More people farming. I am thinking some might actually leave the AE to go back to regular critter farms.

I'd love to think so, but my gut instinct tells me there will be some type of limit or throttling of drops implemented to go along with this.

Prices will drop no question.
I know I'll be back in PI and I'm positive a lot of my farming buddies will be too.
Purples will be flooding the market before long...assuming they dont lower the drop rate even more than it appears they have since i14.

Buh??? *runs to look up announcements*
Holy Moley!
One thing is for certain: I won't struggle to get the dang Croatoa ghosts badge anymore.
But the invariable more people playing at higher options will mean a drop in purple prices. So get selling while the selling is good.
Now if they will let us set custom colors on the chat bug, the I16 circle will be complete.

An Etruscan Snood will nevermore be free
Looks like I should just start working on building cash to buy Purples instead of dropping one, eh?

I agree. This is a game-changer.
Aside from any traditional solo farms, this is going to make regular old content seem fresh. Imagine getting together with a group of in-game friends who can all steamroll normal content. Then you crank the difficulty slider up and fight for your lives and really feel like you've accomplished something.
What'd really be a kick is if you can adjust spawn sizes not just for level but for team size beyond a max of 8. I'm not thrilled by a map filled by +4s, but for example part of what makes the ITF and LGTF so enjoyable for me is facing huge hordes of foes. I'd love to be able to set a mission slider for a team of 8 so the mobs are all still "only" +3 but spawned as if the team had 10 people! Oh the carnage.

I use my Fire/Kin on the Cim wall all the time. Only I don't bother with Flashfire or any other AOE Mez.
You line them up vertically, meaning you go to one side of the row or the other and face the line. Char the Healer, Cages, FS, Cages, Fireball, pick off stragglers. (With Hot Feet and Imps running, obviously).
The double cages is because they resist mez and it takes two cages to get most of them locked down. The nice thing is by lining up with them vertically they'll just run down the line and group around you while FS is firing.
I've tried several different methods and this one has proven to be the best.
