Best planets for SC farming?

[Vinacious G]

Is it still desert and/or hiveworld planets on D1?

From what I've seen yes the hive world still gives you the most sc with any full flat map D1 mission being the second best

Ideal Conditions
~~~~~~
Bot Territory (bugs destroy some POI's, squids have less POI's due to cities on every map)
Flat Planets (Desert or Moon)
No Water (Reduces POI's)
No Cities (Reduces POI's considerably)
Difficulty 1-3 (Preferably 1 for less enemies, difficulty 4+ spawns Rare Samples in the POI's which dilutes the drops.)
Warp Pack for soloing Friendship Bunkers, Crossbow for Containers

I don't see any "Ideal" Planets at the moment but I've been farming Zzaniah Prime for the last day to catch up on the past two Warbonds.

The best planet for SC farming is whatever planet that does not have garbage map generation nuking the odds of SC to spawn.

So pretty much avoid:
Magma
Jungle/Swamp
Full City map
Hive World(they are pretty good but you often do not have the leeway to run around solo clearing the map)

I think thats its, aside from that you can pretty much do whatever and you will have the best SC farming experience possible which is "You do not FARM it, just play the game normally".

I very literally just did 5 missions on Mog fighting Squids on diff 10 moooostly clearing the maps, a couple of bunkers and one or two supply pods or w/e they are went unopened.

I started with 860 SC and I have 1000 now so average 28 SC per mission, almost 3 SC pickups. It is a bit higher than I usually get but I also avoided playing the Rocket wave defense missions both because I think they are boring but they obviously dont have any SC either so I guess there was a tiny bit of manipulating the odds from my side.



Best of all? I played the game and had fun instead of doing braindead 'farming' which means I also have stocked up 250 medals for the upcoming warbond something that I would not have if I spent my time farming on low diff missions.

This is how I have earned SC to buy all the warbonds except the Killzone one since I already have all the stuff from it that I want.

You get way more Medals Aborting Difficulty 1 missions every 2-3 minutes compared to fully clearing a 30 minute map on Difficulty 10. By the time I farm 1,000 Super Credits I have enough Medals to reach the final page of said Warbond.

Any open biome with good visibility, though I'm seeing a lot of creds on Grant Errant on bug front.
Hive world is swarming with bugs, that will slow you down even on level 1.

That is very debatable with the medal pickups being like 1-2 each and how much time are you doing that?

It really does not matter if you are farming more efficiently than me if I am playing the game at diff 10 having fun and still reaching all the required medals and SC that I need, I win by default since 100% of my gametime is spent "playing the game" instead of farming.

Medal pick ups range from 1-4 and rare drops are 6.

Darn, I lost. I'm sorry Steam ; ;

I'll make sure not to stay on topic next time and tell the topic creator they are wrong by default.

So you disagree that it is better to enjoy the game 100% of the time instead of spending time bored farming?

Thats definitely a opinion to have and its all yours if you want it.

I myself am looking more into farming than "playing the game regularly" because:

- I'm lvl 69 with the title 'Burier of Heads,' which I think is hilarious and thus I don't want to earn XP for now (which is quite the statement to make in any game)

- I need lots of supercreds because the 2 most recent warbbonds, launching within 2 or so weeks of each other (!!), both seem interesting and useful

- My time is valuable and getting supercreds quickly is my main goal rn - once I've got enough for 2 warbonds, I'll go back to "playing he game regularly" and enjoy it even moreso

- Farming is a much faster ay to get supercreds

- Getting medals is super easy, all I have to do is log in every few weeks for another free hundred or so


Thank you to everybody for sharing useful info!
Flat planets, moons, deserts, without water, usually bugs or bots, got it!
I've been using a mechsuit and speargun for solo attainment, which has helped quite a bit!
