Best Heat Plasma Battery Farm - Hard Mode Old Mystery, NOT full run.

[Valhalla]

Most people have just been fully running Haven or Old Mystery to farm these. However, just running through these, you will likely only get 1 elite(yellowbar) enemy per run, which can result in anywhere from 2-11ish batteries per run, which is very sluggish.

However, if you run "Old Mystery" on Hard Mode, work your way to the room where you have to destroy the 6 blue shards on the ground. Instead, just don't destroy them, or only destroy 5. By the time your timer runs out, you will have had at least 5-7 yellow bar enemies spawn in during that time, all of which can drop batteries. This takes a fraction of the time(About 5 mins per run), and you get much, much more per run.

Runs are resulting in about 50-60ish batteries per run.

Just in case any of you are having a hard time farming these particular resources up, and are sick of running Old Mystery and Haven over and over to get them.

Cheers!

Can confirm got 4 elites dropping 7 - 12 each over the 5 mins. So much less hassle than spamming haven as well.
Also drops alot of weps/modules

Most of the bosses spawned towards the end of the 5 mins (last 1min ish)
Breaking the rocks seems to make no difference so if you just want batteries, just kill stuff.

Not as far as I know. I did a couple runs last night to get enough to continuously craft a few energy reactor things.

I just did this 5 minutes ago, and got 57 batteries from that one room alone.

I can confirm this method still works perfectly.

Forcing players to watch YouTube videos in order to play the game properly is dog really bad ♥♥♥♥ design imo.

i dont disagree at all but for efficiency the strats force one to research ....i farmed 1100 of them things before 1.0.7 because i thought i will be nerfed so not grinding em for a long time . 20 runs in 2 hrs or so and you never have to worry about it .

Can confirm this method still works for 50-60 per run as of 10/20/2024. Take all my points, @Valhalla!
