Gold in Night City madness was decreased to 18k!
not for me,i am farming every day Words of Warning and always give 5491+21010 gold every battle...
@Ip4
Do you have a Team for auto farm words of warning?
That's what I've been hitting lately.. roughly 1Mill for a full SOT auto-play. Since they corrected the horrible gold returns in Night City, really any NC level is good for gold 13+K gold per run (as a reward though in addition to standard per-run gold)
Not so.. you get 13-25k per run.. I often see 20+K from a run. But even at 18K that's still 3 times better than NOTB.
How are you earning 1mm per Sot refill running Words of Warning. At 15 battles per SoT refill that would be 60K per battle, that excludes earned SoT or saleable tailsman
15 runs, averaging 25K per run (20k reward 5k for completing) = 375K -- add in gained SOT and the times that actually provide more than 20K reward... and it's probably closer to 400-450K per SOT refill. It WAS closer to 1Mil when the rewards could hit 30-40K. It's now closer to 500K most of the time.
Sorry for the hyperbole before.
What teams are you using for those who dont have all the allies or talisman. How long are your battles taking?
playing only madness because 25000 gold and sometimes 40000 gold...
FFE frontier talisman
KP warlord
MACLO warlord
you can change Maclo for blue lilith with fortune talisman

I tend to use A Banshee (Warlord/Radiant), NotB Ed (Warlord/Angel/Cosmic), KP (Warlord/Sustaining/Tranquility) -- best Time 23Sec
Right now, for achievements, I'm running with Bass Ed (Revenge/Warp/Random Yellow), Musashi (Alchemy), and KP.. that's taking about 30 seconds longer
But there are number of teams that seem to do as well... FFE, Musashi (Alchemy), KP.... Alex Ed, A Banshee, KP.... Alex, Musashi, A Banshee ... Doomday, S Maclo, S Shinobi....
My point was if you can farm Night City, that's where the best gold is now. Even if you can only farm the first battle of normal, there's more gold there than in NotB now.
Running NotB with 120 SOT (25 runs) will yield roughly 220K gold (minimum). Running any level of NC with the same 120 SOT (15 runs) will yield roughly 225K gold (minimum for the low end 13K reward, which is only if you are farming "normal")
Thanks guys. I wasnt asking for myself in particular. I was asking for some ally/talisman combos that most people have, not including all newest toys that everyone may not have earned as of yet.
You also get a load of gold from selling the earned tallisman - especially the gunner variety - that can get you a load of extra gold in NC as they are 4 star - this really does add a lot as I often get few or more per run. Also you can level up Eddies (troopers or your own) easily of course which helps add to savings and I think they level faster in the harder level like Words of Warning than say Powerslave or AMOLAD. The upgrade material gains are pretty decent too.
Hmm sounds like I should really rethink my farming strategy! Thanks for sharing your ideas! On the other hand I am a bit sceptical because of the high SoT price! 8 SoT in NC madness is double than Powerslave!
Quick math:
24 hours a day = 1440 minutes = 288 times 5 minutes equals 288 SoT.
288/8 SoT per run = 36 runs! And as there is no level with 5 waves the potential return of SoT (and Ironite) is lower than in Powerslave (which allows 72 runs per 288 SoT).
With 36 runs you miss 14 troopers and also you have not yet played the Skull Quests. This means if you farm NC in madness you need to buy at least one refill to get the daily things done...
For NC in hard = 41 runs; for normal = 48 runs
Maybe it's best for sacrifice events to burn through extra SoT.
BTW: We clearly need 3 different team quick selections for normal play, just as it is for the Skull Quests and Dungeons (where it is totally broken I had to learn)
The question has become what is the best to farm. If you are only going for gold than NC is the best barring the fact you will need to buy one SoT refill to use all your troopers.
NC gives more gold per SoT than anywhere else, plus gold you can earn by selling talisman. NC also drops 5* runes that that will help in leveling those talisman. The downside you probably cant level toons and you will need to spend gold and shards to evolve sacable toons. If you have a cache of shards than you wont need to farm any where else. If you are a heavy LoL event farmer this shouldn't be a problem. Only using free SoT you can use 40+ troopers and earn 1mm gold including skull quests. Anyone know on average how much ironite drops per day NC will give?
NotB is nice if you have Alex. Here you can level 2 allies and have the potential to drop 3* evo and runes to evolve toons and talisman. It is nice that you can use all your troopers and skull quests without any SoT refills. The downside is that using Alex and 2 low power allies take extended times.
Powerslave is nice that you can level an Eddie and 2 allies easily for game use or sac events. I found powerslave overall gives a little more gold than NotB. The downside is it doesnt drop any 3* evo materials. If you can do all skull quests and farm powerslave without any refills your earn 700K gold a day. I averaged 75 ironite a day on powerslave including skull quest drops.
There is no best place to farm. It all depends on what your needs and goals are in this game. This of course doent take into account of any event requirements
Muzzleloader that is one of the best summaries of what makes each farming option good. Well done. That should get stickied.
Yeah, I think it is all down to what you need to do. I do swap around on things from time to time but at the moment I am only levelling up Eddies so NC Word of Warning is best. Not sure if others see this when auto farming but take a glimpse when you get to loot stage - I have mine playing in front of my while at work so I take a look at loot from time to time. You do get the odd gold spike - I have had at least three today where the gold was 41k - not sure why but must be an RNG thing? I dont really need much else in the game as I have a lot of upgrade stuff in the bank so for gold I go here each time. Those tallies also do add a bit on the gunner side of them - think it is 65k or so each - the greens not so much but decent too compared to Powerslave and AMOLD/NotB.
Too lazy to work it all out to the extreme but NC does seem to be the best for gold if levelling up just Eddies.
The postings of help by muzzleloader is by muzzleloader. If there are any questions or comments of recent play it is my nephew playing my account. I am still coaching him how to play, especially gauntlet where he gets his butt kicked.
I am trying to give back to the forum that was so readily available to myself when starting out on this long strange journey.
Just use the same team as my defense, my setup gets beat all the time.
For further reference, I just ran 120 SoT (plus whatever you generate while running) through Words of Warning. I didnt keep track of total runs or anything, it was on auto while I worked. I lost 3 times but I have included an extra 78k gold as compensation for proper results (approx 26k per run) assuming you wouldnt fail with the correct team. My team was FFE, KP, Ferryman. Sleep seems to be an issue, perhaps an anti-sleep character would be helpful, maybe even witchdoctor, instead of Ferryman...
Anyway, here are my results:
I started with 16.54M gold
Including the 78k add I would have ended at 17.01M gold or an increase of 470k
I then sold the 4* talismans I dropped (only 2 which is actually a bit low) for another 135,324 gold
I would expect approx 670k gold per 120 SoT assuming you sell all talisman and assuming average (3) talisman drops.
Oh and my average time per run is 1:30 best time is 1:07 with this team.
I did the same thng this afternoon on the same level.
Results ( I ran it at 1 speed to maximise any extra SoT that might drop:
528K gold
4* talismans sold (3 gunner) for (I think) 67k each = 201k gold so a combined total of 729k gold
I think this is a little higher than average for me so there must have been a few of those higher gold drops (I saw 1 at 41k but assume there must have been maybe another 2).
The way I farm is to set it up before going to sleep. When I wake up the sands have filled and I run it again. Once it fills again I run it agin until Troopers are done. Non Eddie troopers get done in the quests each day. Rinse and repaet until the sleep time again. I try not to lose any sands - I do of course but if I can I farm a few times day when non-event time.
Problem lately for me.. is auto-play is crashing the game. I have yet to run a full SOT where the game does NOT crash around 60SOT left. So the whole "auto-play while sleeping" won't work for me until they fix this issue. I start it, but I know it'll crash so there's no sense refilling SOT first.
Yup my game also crash often on autoplay on 3x speed specially when playing dungeons and LOL events,i am using ipad mini 2 maybe that's the reason...
Maybe.. I'm on an iPad air 2nd gen. IOS12.2 (or whatever the latest version is.. it just updated Tuesday, still crashes)
your ipad is double better than mine,crash must not happened on your ipad...
I've changed my team and it seems way more reliable...
I'm now using Good Ol' Benny with Angels plus FFE and gunner krampus (Alchemy)
Im SURE alchemy talisman is making it way better, probably could use any toon with them. Not sure if Benny is better, but he is doing a ton of damage and his rez is a nice safety net.
I'm running xander with dominance/tower. Having a ferryman and red valkyrie tagging along to level them. I'm not sure if xander can solo it (didn't try yet), but xander/ferryman team hasn't failed even once so far.
I think in terms of 3* evo runes notb is better, however i want some more nightmares. I find 8 sot quite expensive, if you want to run all of your troopers you defo need to buy refills.
I am using Hallowed, KP and Magus Lilith on Words of Warning and it seems to be 99% solid - I get the very odd defeat but hardly any at all.
I am lucky in that I can farm all day long if I want to so it works for me and how I farm. My kids stick to Powerslave as they dont have the relics and characters yet and are always levelling up characters as they still get a lot of new characters to level. They sometimes do AMOLAD as well once the levelled characters are at 5 star and have decent talisman - they also need the 3 star evo runes so that works for them too.
I was wondering if anyone is keeping track of ironite drops in NC. I played over 70 battles of Words of Warning madness and only earned 8 ironite. If playing powerslave I on average would have earned 60 ironite. The gold is definetly in NC, but would be unable to save ironite for events.
[QUOTE=scott-5496;96955]I did the same thng this afternoon on the same level.

Is there really a difference between 3x speed vs 1x speed for ironite drops??
