Step 1) Make a SS/Fire/Mu Brute on Freedom redside.
Step 2) Level it up to 50.
Step 3) Get some Incarnate powers.
Step 4) Farm like mad for tickets, improve build, sell stuff.
Step 5) Profit!
In detail...
Step 1) Make s SS/Fire Brute on Freedom redside. Use SS/Fire because (last I knew) that's the best ticket farmer. You can easily get 90% Fire Resistance, so you make sure you only fight mobs that do Fire damage. Start redside so you can do the Patron arc and get the Mu patron pool. You get Blazing Aura, Burn, Foot Stomp, Electrifying Fences, and Ball Lightning for AoE attacks. You get Fiery Embrace and Rage to increase your damage. Fury also adds 180% all the time. Use Freedom because that's where a lot of other farmers are, so you can ask for hints, trade PLs, maybe join a farming SG, whatever. You may want to switch to blueside. Regardless, start a solo SG for storing your stuffs.
Step 2) Level it up to 50. You can do this in AE in fire farms. Just look for very highly ranked non-Dev missions where you fight Fire based mobs on huge maps. Start at normal difficulty, and crank it up as you level. Take fire resistance powers and AoE attacks ASAP. Once you hit 90% Resistance you can run at fairly high difficulty. Make sure you read the Player Guides about inspiration combining macros, and use them. While leveling I recommend you spend your tickets on Silver level 10-15 until you hit level 40, then Bronze level 15-19 after that.
Step 3) Get some Incarnate powers. You'll want to get an Alpha to T3 so you get a +1 level shift. You probably want to get a T4 Ion Judgement power for the massive AoE it does every 2 minutes. Look in the Brute section of the forums for SS/Fire farmer builds and see what they took and why. Look at the Player Guides section for how to get Incarnate powers.
Step 4) Farm like mad for tickets, improve build, sell stuff. Reinvestment is very important. The better your build, the faster you can farm. Hopefully by this time you'll have some idea whether or not you want to stick with your plan. If you like farming and plan to do it for hours every day, then load up your farmer with purples and the best Enhancements Inf can buy. If you're sick of it, you may want to go with a lower end build. The hardest thing here is deciding how to use your tickets. Long ago, Bronze level 15-19 was the best thing to roll. I don't know now.
Step 5) Profit! Sell stuff you get, and price it to move based on your farming schedule. Most farmers just sell recipes. If you're farming a lot, you probably want to sell bunches of recipes as well. Price them to sell by the time you need the market slots. Alternatively you can craft some and sell them for more. Look for info on paragonwiki on how to increase your number of market slots, because you'll want as many as you can get. Or take it to the next level, trade PLs to get lots of other characters on your account up to level 10 or so and have them be your sales force. Farm for recipes, craft and leave in bins in your base, then have your lowbies sell them.
Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.

Hello Friends,
I have a few questions...ok, I have a lot of questions about AE, tickets, and how to make billions of influence. I have been reluctant to ask because I've gotten used to folks on other game forums not wanting to talk about these kinds of things for various reasons. But I keep seeing people talk about getting 10k tickets in 20 minutes, and having 10+ Billion influence on hand and I am just lost.
Could anyone explain it to me in detail, or point me to a site/post that does? I guess what I am asking for is an AE ticket farming guide of some kind.
Thanks
