Most Fun And Best Farming Class

Any 1 have suggestions on the Most fun and Best Farming Class or Classes
Please And Thankyou

Welcome to the game?

Unless you really enjoy repeating the same content over, and over, without checking out what the rest the game has to offer, I recommend you roll a aoe centric toon (melee is great for surviveability) and play the game. Once you have some experience under your belt, you will have a workable toon to farm with.

If you just want influence, I recommend you go to the market section, and take a look at some of the guides there. Tons of info on how to get people to give you lots of influence for things they are too lazy to do.

Fun depends on you. Do you prefer melee, ranged, mix of both? Do you want to play squishies or something sturdy?'

Within those bounds there are some agreed upon "best" combos for farming. Fire/Kin/Fire controllers, SS/Fire Brutes. Those are some of the more legendary ones, but there are plenty of combos that perform similarly to the "top tier" so it's really all down to what flavor you want at the time.

trick question?? Farming isnt fun, cant give you answer. Why dont dev just make it possible to buy a lvl50 toon for 20$ and get all this farming nonsense delt with. Its like RL, its the journey, not the destination, that matters. Its playing the game, not getting to 50 asap that matters.

There are people who enjoy farming.

MOST people who ask about farming are under the impression that:

1) They need the top end equipment to play level 50 content
2) They need to get billions of inf for the top end equipment
3) Farming is the best (sometimes, they think it's the only) way to get billions of inf.

of those three, I'd say 2) is correct. 3) CAN get you billions of inf, but usually you can make it faster and far more easily on the market.

Oh, I'm going to add
4) Marketeers are evil parasites on the necks of the hard working noble farmers. Clearly we're forcing people to sell to us at a price they themselves set, and forcing other people to NOT leave bids at 1 inf over our bid price, and forcing those people to pay our prices to have the shinies right now. Trilateral commission has NOTHING on us.

Surprisingly enough, I'd say the funniest set is the one you find fun, so maybe just try what looks fun and go from there. Now it seems your looking for a toon that is fun, and can do amazing things when in practice. So my suggestion goes to either Dominators or Controllers. If you don't like loads of control with damage second. I would suggest Scrappers as another. As for exact combos to start out with I'd say something like these.

#1) FOTM- Fire/kin/stone Controller. Now not sure how you are about having a toon just about everyone has made, but easy place to start.

#2) Second FOTM- Elec/Shield/? Scrapper. Not real good to start out with, you need close to soft cap to be ok, and decent recharge.

#3) Fire/psi/fire Dominator. I've heard nothing but good things, and easy to use.

#4) And my fav Mind/Stone/Psi Dominator. Right away easy to solo with plenty of control and plenty of integration.

Edit: Welcome to the game, and hope you find your place.

sooooo, the only ones i wanted to try, noone mentioned lol

fire/dark corruptor
claws/fire brute

Emp/Assault Rifle defender. Best farmer in the game.

Plant/Storm Controller is the best farmer hands down.

Elec/Ice Blasters are hands down the most fun and best at farming in the game.

My personal favorite is the elec/shield brute. Very fun and very good AOE damage.

how does a fire/dark corruptor stack up against a fire/kin controller in terms of AoE farming effectiveness and fun?

As others have said, a dedicated farming character is rather unneccesary. Not only can you do all the content in the game as the devs intended without the level of influence you'd need to farm to aquire, but there are more time-efficient methods of gaining that influence.

That said, I'm not going to say you should forget farming altogether. While they might not reach the income of a, say, Fire/Kin, any character with a decent level of survivability and AoE damage can farm*. Thus, my suggestion would be to find a character that meets these conditions - and there are a lot that do - that you think would be fun for you in normal play, and then just do some farming on the side when you feel like it. If that character happens to be on of the top farming builds, then go for it, but I really strongly recommend against picking those purely cos they can farm well. Play what is fun, not what it good.


*And, indeed, with the introduction of H/V merits, any character can pull in a decent amount of income just by doing 5-6 missions a day. Not up there with farming a Fire/Kin for 6 hours a day or anything, but certainly respectable none-the-less.

Far as I'm concerned, farmers are people who beat the game, then went back and lowered the difficulty... "You are not WORTHY to farm" is a very odd attitude.

I'm not sure you're picking a good spot to be elitist, Donna.

I am simply pointing out that there should be a difference between farmers, and mindless sheep...

The OP doesn't even know why they want to farm... the have no knowledge of IO's and it's very obvious that this desire to farm comes from seeing others wanting to get in on farming teams.

They are following the croud, like... well, sheep.

Farming with Stalkers is where its at.
