So long as the rewards you get are comparable to what you'd be getting fighting similar mobs in a mission outside the AE, it might be a farm, but it's not an exploit. I personally see no problem with cherry picking mobs that you just enjoy fighting for whatever reason and putting them in AE missions. Then again, I am not a dev.

I wouldn't worry about it. As Heraclea said, as long as the rewards aren't totally out of whack, (which it doesn't sound like they are), you should be fine.

Ok cool. I figured I was probably ok since It certainly didn't feel like I was doing anything wrong, but that's always up for debate when other people (especially the devs) can be involved.

I have a lvl 50 dm/elec brute, buzzsaw build. He's become ratherlackluster to me lately, I think between the slight animation time nerf to DM a few issues ago and the fact that I'm enjoying other toons more these days.
So, I started trying to test him, to see what the extremes of his survivability are, and of course, what better place to do that but AE?
My first mission in this "survivor" arc is full of nothing but Neuron robots since they do a ton of enrgy damage, and he's very resistant to it. I plan on changing the enemies in each successive mission until the last bunch are what he's weakest against.
But, I'm only in the first mission, so I've tweaked it to a point where a ton of neuron robots will spawn, minions, lieuts and bosses, with patrols and ambushes. there are ons of them on the screen, and i get them taunted and herded to a corner so i can melee them. At this point, i'm hitting my ter 9 and hoping to finish off this mad mob of murderous mechanoids before the tier 9 drop, as well as any patrols or ambushes that my take notice of us.
I am certainly not wiping out these huge mobs with any kind of speed, since i'm a buzzsaw build made to focus on single target dps, and the only aoes i have are my aura, dark consumption and Opressive gloom. This first mission can take me about 45minutes to an hour to complete, and maybe I earn a couple hundred tickets upon completion, i haven't really looked at it since that wasn't what i created it for.
I don't want to get nailed for making a farm, but I do enjoy this insane "Robotron on PCP" challenge.
