Where should I farm for an Infinity pistol?
Is there a certain mob that drops them? If so, what's the drop rate?

You would be better off farming for something better but if you really want an infinity then doc mercy would be the best way to farm for one. I have no idea what the drop rates are though.

I farmed infinity in UVHM and doc mercy dropped one. It's not worth it though. The only reason it was any good was because you could run the damage glitch then swap out to the infinity. Add a bee shield on top of that and everything got cut down in seconds. Got patched out ages ago though.

As others mentioned, Doc Mercy drops it. You can get the "Medical Mystery" mission from Zed right after you get to Sanctuary, and that leads to Mercy. If you have the Tina DLC, the Gold Golem in the mines also drops the Infinity, and I'm guessing that the drop rates are more or less the same, but Mercy is a lot faster and easier to get to, especially if you use the geyser.

The drop rate is "whenever he da*n well feels like it". :-) Seriously, I've read that bosses generally have a 1/30 chance to drop their designated item. I don't know if that's true, but it seems close enough. Sometimes it takes dozens of kills, or more, to get something. Other times you may be much luckier.

think this depends on either the item or the mob

items like the sham seem to have a very illusive drop rate

Well Doc Mercy is Max lvl 35 cant prolly drop a lvl 50 right?
I really need a lvl 50 one its sooo hard to progress with only 1.4k Infinity

Enemies drop loot based on their level, not the players. UVHM enemies are Level 50 and above, but loot caps at Overpower 8, effectively Level 80.

As ShinkuTear posted, the level for dropped items is based on the enemy level. Mercy will be level 30-something when you start TVHM. When you complete the last main story mission in TVHM, everything in the main game scales to level 50. You can get a level 50 Infinity from Mercy at that point, but until then, his level won't change.

FWIW, there is a separate in-game trading section here in the forum. You could ask there to see if someone could give you an Infinity.

Actually, no. First of all, you won't even see Mercy at the Peak until you're playing in the mid OP levels. And even if he did show up before that, the Peak is fixed at level 35 in Normal Mode and level 50 in TVHM, so you can only get drops there around level 35, or around level 50, or higher. But, like I said, you won't even see Mercy there until you're playing in the OP levels.

Yeah, some seem to have different drop rates. But the other thing with bosses like BNK3R is that they have more than one designated drop. BNK3R can drop special heads, or a Sham, or a B!tch. It makes it that much harder when you're looking for one specific thing, like a Sham from BNK3R. When he does finally drop something, it could be a head or a B!tch.

Got my two infinity from Doc Mercy. Levels 48 both in TVHM. The same day, in about 15 minutes from one to another. One Acid, and one normal. Do the geyser trick to go faster. Good luck :)

the gold golem in tiny tina's dlc also drops the infinity as well. Just a heads up.
