whats best place to farm elite difficulty?

[Hav0k]

im level 60 and need somewhere decent to farm for gear, also what level should i be to start ultimate difficulty?

if you are farming for gear I would recommend either the crucible or shattered realms. Keep in mind you will need good gear to survive higher rounds which yield better rewards. if your gear is garbage look around shops to find good green items. usually faction shops have nice green items.

In my opinion level is not a big issue with ultimate. Ultimate difficulty is a gear check. if your gear sucks, you will suck in ultimate.

I like BoC for farming but nevr had farm in elite. Move to ult when can for greater rewards/exp. First 3 Acts on ult easier that the Elite AoM and you get all that phat exp bonus from questing again.

According to my experience there isn't 1 good/best place to farm. This is what I like:

farming route(go for bosses + factions/possible nemesis spawns): Salazar(secret hideout near burrwitch outskirts), warden, arkovian undercity, cronley's hideout, bee den next to twin falls portal, dermapteran queen(rotting croplands);
optional - conflagration, blood grove(Bolvar), Zaria(darkvale village), commander lucius, loghorrean

in AoM: Gloomwald, Ugdenbog, Steelcap District

Idk about FG, haven't played it much yet.

I'd go for the basegame stuff and If you're really unlucky eventually you'll get possible Nemeses which increase your chance of cool drops.

Also check your faction vendors as it is, you may have unlocked some stuff you could make use of, like for example fix your resistances.

Level for ultimate doesn't matter much, just try it out and if can kill things without dying much, then you're ok. Otherwise you might stay on elite until 90+ especially if you're on hardcore. At least that's some of what I've seen from people playing hardcore. After a while you might start noticing the same/similar items dropping on elite and blues/purples won't drop on every run. If you can, do AoM on elite. You'll get nice green items that can help on ultimate.

Farming in any of the dungeons is ok too, if you have the materials and don't die.

Sth I want to point out, when you get past Cronley's hideout on ultimate(maybe it's when you kill Cronley) Moneybags will stop dropping dynamite on elite, so you'll have to get it on ultimate, if you want to farm him for it. Idk if it's intentional, seems like it.

Play the campaign, if only for the special quest rewards and shrines on the way. Plus you have to finish it anyways to unlock Ultimate, and TBH you should already be around 65-70 if you finish Veteran with all factions unlocked.

Once you have the resistance gear, going to Ultimate is highly recommended though. Loot and Exp are much better there.

Do bounty runs until you are revered with everyone and just pray good stuff drops. It's a fair starting point before specific area farm.
