Uw 70k?
This guy said that he made 70k farming the underworld in three hours. I was doing it for about one hour and was thinking, how the hell do you get 70k in three hours? anybody got an answer to my question?

My guess is another Assassin planes farmer. How they do that I have no idea, I've done 4 runs, wasted consets and entry fees and never got one single ecto where it seems the minimum people leave with are 2 or 3 at worse. Never again.

Maybe he lied.......or got very, very, very lucky.
I have solo cleared the plains several times and never got more that 3 ecto. Not worth it to me. |

6 1/2 hours UWSC's, getting one at least 1 ecto and the chest... not that hard.

The most I ever got solo, whacking every Aataxe, Mindblade, dryder, and clearing the bonepits was 12 ectos in a run. That took 1.5 hrs. 70k is a possibility but not an average haul.

umm can anyone say UWSC? In three hours you could finish 6 full UW runs (or more depending on your groups), during which time you'd get to open that nice reward chest plenty of times and likely get lots of ectos. Honestly though, 70k for three hours work isn't even the most you could get without too much work. I occasionally run run in places like DoA and its not uncommon to get 30k+ (as well as gemstones in DoA) for a run which takes between 30 minutes and an hour.

The people that can do it well and still farm Chaos planes make a decent haul seeing as prices have gone back up a bit. Not an easy farm to be sure though.

uwsc taking 20minutes, making you able to do 3 in 1 hour not counting the forming. 3x4,5k=13,5k an hour at least (excluding lockpick saphire diamond and key you get). More ecto drops excluded aswell. 13,5k x 3 = 40,5x. +6k of lockpick 12 x of saph/ruby. Yh 70k is very reasonable. Got to be quick at organising though. Guess he was just bragging. Many people do.

I havent done the plains for a while but you can get 6+ a time on lucky runs or maybe occasionally you'll only get 2 or 3. Once I got 8.

I would concur, likely that, outside of multiple successful speed runs, he must have been doing plains. I've cleared 50k in 1:50, with 9 (yes 9, you may not believe me, hell I was there, and still hardly can)ecto, 1 black dye, one white, and a full load of merch swag. I should note, this was not strictly plains run, done for speed, I killed every attxe, grasping, dryder etc, that I could. Luckiest run of any farm I've ever done. I've never come close to repeating either. Seems like when it rains, it poors.
