Thanks for the clarification. You're not using any runes to boost their main(s) attribute(s)? I'm a bit surprised at what you said, it make me thinks that I'm not using my heroes the right way, because it happens quite often that the party I'm using is underperforming, until I change one hero to a more appropriate one. Or is this basically what you're saying? (i.e. simply have to find the best party, not the best heroes)

Hold on, if you take henchie as opposed to heroes you don't share loot?

Nope, Still have to share loot. There's this whole thing were if they're flagged far enough away they don't or something.. Might wanna look into that..

Anyways, Personally I find running WAY more profitable that farming.. It's alot cheaper to start up and way more entertaining.. But if you want my personal opinion:

I really hate grinding.. In any way, shape, or form. It's monotonous and boring, so I personally find farming just a modified version of grinding for profit. When I run people, It keeps me entertained and helps keep me on my heels. Plus I make roughly 20k an hour (as well as tips if I'm fast) so It pays the bills.. And by bills I mean Elite Druids armor... (b'.')b

I say it is cheaper because you only need need to have one build. When you farm (or at least when I did) there are a lot of builds to try out, and you always have to buy new skills and whatnot..

Keep this in mind when trying to find ways of making money..

Funny that I see no difference between you running the same route all the time and someone farming the same spots all the time. When its fun to you its not grinding - same as farmer if they enjoy that aspect of the game. Just an observance.

I also think it would be cool if the money and drops that your heroes got were customized for them and you could use it to outfit them. Only seems fair. I'm sure that this could be made to avoid any exploits (such as selling things off the hero for cash for the player). If something was sold from a hero than that hero gets the money. If that hero buys something than it is customized only for that hero.

Tis why it is my personal opinion. I find Running through hundreds of Grawl and Tundra Giants way more fun than Killing Hundreds of Grawl and perhaps even Tundra giants for worthless golds (unless they're leet lol..).. I just have a problem with it..

Anywho, I alone don't like to grind. It doesn't mean that Mr. farmer won't get that same Euphoria/Adrenaline from farming.. Either way it's all good.. I'm just making more money than you.. So HA!

I don't think the party leader should share drops at all. The party leader should get all of the items regardless. I will not accept any other answers.

Ahh just tell the people you're running that you are stopping for a few mins on a farming run and kill those hundreds of Grawl and Giants. I'm sure they won't mind.

I may have to try running just to see what its like. Lol you never know, I may give up farming altogether.

I agree that the party leader needs to get all the drops. Just make sure when we are in a party together, I get to be leader.
