Default Farming Rumor....

Hello guys I just want to clarify some things and your feedback will be greatly appreciated. Anyway, its about a farming rumor that I have been hearing lately from other people about farming. The rumor says that if you have a lot of xp on your char say over 3 mil, you tend to not get any drops anymore (greens, golds and ectos) for you have been playing that character alot. So please before I delete my char to start over again, please (I know someone out there has a little bit of information about this) help me undertand if this is rumor is true or false. Thanks guys in advance.

Utter rubbish. Don't listen to it. I've got a necro with 3 million+ XP and she still gets gold/green drops like mad.

Same goes for my monk.

If you find that you're getting no drops then go do 2-3 missions. I've found that this instantly resets my farming code. I recommend doing the Shiro mission at the end of Factions. It should take 2-3 minutes tops and there are always groups waiting to do it.

*Note: the mission will take 2-3 minutes tops. Waiting through the cutscene for the newbie that hasn't finished factions... another 2-3 minutes.

Its certainly doable, I have 10 pve/pvp characters and my current main is a ranger nearing 5 million... and his acct is only 6 mos old (yeah, I have to work 40-50 hours every week too).
Note, it IS a lot less work to get skill hunter (3) when you already have all the skill points and enough cash
I do solo touch/wilderness/pet farming with him

Whoa, how did this thread turn into the Makosi Fanclub.

Anyways woftam, don't assume when you have no experience, even I as mesmer can farm 400k xp a day, if I wanted to It's just... so incredibly boring to try.

Makosi just put more playtime into it, while playing efficiently in that time. They also have exactly twice my xp
