Farming Masters - a thread about the popular farming places!

Interesting results. The other night must've been some seriously bad RNG.

21 instances total ran, 5 masters.
- 1st master met in the 1st instance (Catarina)
- 2nd master met in the 2nd instance (Haku)
- 3rd master met in the 4th instance (Elreon)
- 4th master met in the 7th instance (Catarina)
- 5th master met in the 21st instance (Tora)

#1 : 1
#2 : 1
#3 : 2
#4 : 3
#5 : 14
= 21 instances total

The gap between the 4th and 5th master is abnormally large for some reason.

I find it hilarious that people are wondering why certain farming areas are being nerfed.

Do you reeeaaalllyyy think GGG doesn't read the forums? Come on now...
I used to put my characters down here.

The list became so long, and I've had to DELETE over 50 characters to make room for others, that I've stopped updating it.

#firstworldproblems give me character slots free or WAY cheaper GGG ;(
bump thx for the overview

21 instances is by no mean a representative sample.
As I mentioned, when doing 100 instances, there are series of 20 giving no masters while others gave 5. Randomization in all its glory.

Anyway, I've started running nothing else than maps, it's much more efficient to level masters once you have a character which can run lv69-70 maps effortlessly (in my case with a physical bow ranger, since nothing else than a decent bow is required).
Do maps have higher spawn rate for masters?
Thanks for doing this, KorgothBG :)
I like many kinds of games 😊
Well written. Bookmarked. Thank you!

true, but if they are going to nerf it, then they should say in the notes "we nerfed these areas"


there is no need to hide such things
Wtf would you make any master runs at all?

- Get 5 active players friends together, do your dailies in rotation. Can do good 20 masters in a row that way, high level too.
- Run high level maps, one master there gives more XP than 500 quests on your crappy old fields master run.
- Make a WTB party on merci and pay people alch/chaos for inviting you to high level dailies.

Farming masters, the most ridiculous of all trends here. :-)
Your calculation for the library is off. My guess is thats why it came out so low. look at the time to completion.
For years i searched for deep truths. A thousand revelations. At the very edge...the ability to think itself dissolves away.Thinking in human language is the problem. Any separation from 'the whole truth' is incomplete.My incomplete concepts may add to your 'whole truth', accept it or think about it
