been farming trivial missions for samples.
I need a lot of samples, the common ones, and on the higher levels i'm lucky if we extract with 4, mostly due to the fact that points of interest are much more scattered far apart and we do not have time to explore for them.

It feels like there are more on the medium levels; the biggest thing is to POI hunt

Medium is fbetter I'd say cause you tend to get more, plus more medals of course =)

On Challenging and above you for sure get less cause you get the rare ones instead.

i can average 10 common samples in about 10 minutes or less plus a good amount of super credits if i'm lucky.

best mission for samples seem to be egg missions - the hives have an absurd amount of samples of all raritys and on helldive you will get tons of stalker nests and they spawn tons of samples too.

All the points of interest are very close, i have gotten 40 in one trivial mission due to a double in a storage container.

What you should be doing is farming medals. Is that 10% faster equipment calldowns going to be what you need or the shotgun that melts anything shorter than a charger?

i want that upgrade that costs 100 common samples, it will decrease the falloff damage on orbital strikes from the center of blasts.

Or just enjoy playing the game because you'll naturally accumulate these resources at a very reasonable pace anyway instead of autistically ruining your own experience "grinding" unfun difficulties for no reason.

Just weirdly narcissistic to assume people want or need to know what random pointless ♥♥♥♥ you're up to at any given moment.

Then why reply at all? you are going t turn this post from sharing tips on sample farming into a flame war argument.

Just run light armor and try to avoid most encounters. When you come to a point of interest, alpha strike them with stratagems/coordinated fire so they don't have the time to call for reinforcements. If you don't manage to kill them all and one does call reinforcements, run away and maybe pop smokes to create some distance.

Also I've found on the medium difficulties you can be pretty effective in a 2 man team. So maybe consider splitting your team in 2 to cover ground faster. Even running solo can be pretty effective. If I'm running light armor and a grenade launcher, I'll sometimes run off on my own and pick off some nests and loot POIs if my team is moving too slowly or ignoring them. It's pretty easy to get overwhelmed though, and it's definitely not worked out a few times, so I recommend against it unless you've got a team that's really taking its time. If you're team is on the ball there's really no need.
