Best way to farm loot midget:Doctor's Order or Space Cowboy?

[KCBUAYA]

What is the fastest way to farm loot midget?

In Space Cowboy you only get one by the toilet near the fast travel.But in Doctors Order you get 4 but you need to travel far away.

Which one is better?

Space Cowboy, especially if you just run for the midget kill it, then save quit after picking up whatever it drops instead of worrying about the enemies. It also has the convenience of keeping you right outside a fast Travel, so less annoying when you want to travel somewhere else when you are done farming.

i personally like doctor's orders. although it does take longer, you have way better chances to get loot out of 4 midgets rather than 1.

100% False. Your logic is mathematically incorrect. Killing 4 at once (Doctor's Orders) vs killing 1 in 4 separate runs (Space Cowboy) has equal chances, because each loot midget is considered an independent event.

The single loot midget in Dahl Abandon is much easier to get to and kill 4 times, compared to the run from Creature Slaughter Dome to the room near Bloodwing's enclosure. You have a bunch of stalkers and loaders to deal with first before you can get there.
The odds are the same - one kill of a group of 4 loot midgets or kill a single midget 4x. The WEP room is up to 4 loot midgets. Up to. Sometimes you don't get 4 spawning. Sometimes Jimmy Jenkins turns up and he just doesn't drop the regular loot midget loot. Throw JJ into the calculations and the odds of the WEP get worse.
As far as time goes, I haven't compared the two options, but I reckon the Dahl Abandon option 4x will be faster.

About the only reason to choose the WEP option is if you need to find and kill Jimmy Jenkins for the challenge.

not to mention, chances for a Tubby Stalker, Skag, or the super-rare Tubby Rakk can sometimes spawn in the Wildlife Preserve
