Should I farm at 52 or 60?

I was able to farm 75k at the stronghold, then I leveled to (currently) LVL52. Now I'm trying to decide whether to farm at LVL52 or at LVL60. My goal is to farm another 75k, so I can level without a gap till the current cap.

I've heard people tell me to farm on shades at 52, but others said that was a bad idea and should farm yeti instead. My build is a pure int fire/light nuker on Aege. At which level should I farm?

I think buy nice farming gear and do yeti, they actually follow you, so aoe wins.

i agree with chaud.

get urself a good weapon (L56 & 60) and hit it up at yeti's. theres a lot of them and u can grind real fast with aoe.

not to mention the isy spawns which can take some boredom away... =P

Hashades/Ishades at 52 or Yetis at 60

With a 60 weapon a nuker should be able to 1-hit yetis or at least have a quick 2 hit on them.

Power/Strong Earth ghosts at 64 is good too.

So I'm guessing its better to farm at LVL60 compared to farming at LVL52.

Will I be able to 1-hit yetis assuming that I keep my masteries at LVL51? Or are you assuming a 1-hit from a LVL60 mastery?

Not sure, but with a decent weapon you can do both 'shades and yetis equally fast. 'Shades might even be faster if you can find a good spot for them. You gotta run a bit for yetis sometimes.

I'm a 90% KD nuker, and I currently farm at level 52 at -9 at the penon warriors. Since my equipment is very good, and I carry a good lvl 52 SOS+5 sword, I just drag 4-6 penon warriors together, and blast them to pieces. As soon as zerk hits, I one hit kill them, usually setting up the splash such that it takes 3 hits to kill 5 of them. Without zerk I need 2 nukes/warriors, but I can take down 2 with 3 nukes, or 5-6 with 7-9 nukes by planning my splash. I'm running about 800-1000 sp/hour with a gold ticket.
