Don't think aspects are good anymore, doesn't matter if they're nerfed or not, few days ago 900 dps weapons sold easily for a million, now it's 100-200k. First 2 quests in A3 are decent, no super annoying mobs, pretty decent loot and enough elites to make it, with a bit of luck, worthwhile as long as you can do it reasonably fast.
Yeah, I don't think they're nerfed, but the value of the "decent" weapons you get Aspect farming (the 900 dps 2handers, etc), are low enough that I'm not sure it's worth it. If you get lucky and roll a big 1k+ dps str/vit or int/vit or something, it can still be valuable, but it's much more RNG, less consistent.

how would 1 farm A3? any tricks involved?
not getting a good price for the items don't concern me as much, since i just want to get a high DPS 1h weapon and can't afford the AH prices.

Leah isn't the one your suppose to be farming. Go past Leah and to Silver Spire Level 1. Mira is really hard but the other two are doable. Kul you just have to kite around or get him caught between you and Tyreal.
I am wondering if they have truly nerfed the aspects. I haven't gotten anything good off of them for quite sometime.

It does seem they used to drop way better gear but I feel the nerf did happen. All of my friends used to get better items also. So I am guessing they hot fixed it a little bit.

the best way to farm aspects is to put down 6 spike traps with mark of death and start the boss. it kills the boss in 1 shot basically

aspects seems pretty worthless today, what's the new next to be nerfed spots?

i would think you'd need to keep your dps gears on to do that though. pretty sure most people who farm aspects run it with full mf

i don't understand how they want us to MF? they want every MF run to take an hour? if someone puts in the damn time to do monotonous runs that are completely boring, they should be able to. not everyone can tolerate this but those at the top can.

mf is all about finding the easiest chest to get to and doing it 10000000times, cause why the hell would you want to waste your time tracking down and killing rare packs when you can just walk for 30secs and get more loot for free.

yes and how many people are willing to do monotonous runs over and over and over for a chance at good loot? not many.

No, they don't need MF gear because it's guaranteed to drop at least 1-2 blue items and MF doesn't make the item stats better.

Actually a lot of people seeing how fast Blizzard had to patch multiple chest runs now because they were being abused..

so you think in order to get good items, one must MF for hours with full neph stacks and clear shit? what other way is there to mf?

I read somewhere that the MF is checked when you see the mob for the first time, not when you kill it. Pretty sure that this is not the case. Like 95% sure.
I can confirm, putting my MF gear just before a kill almost always gives a yellow at 199% MF with 5Valor.

Best place in A3 is siegebreaker.
Step 1: Start "Kill Siegebreaker" quest. This will give you the waypoint just before killing him.
Step 2: Do the bridge (2-3 champs there).
Step 3: Do the Keep level 1,2,3
Step 4 if necessary: Do the remparts to get to 5 stacks
Step 5: Go back to last waypoint before siegebreaker and kill him
Advantage of farming route:
-You get Tyrael. He helps A LOT.
-Bridge and dungeons have a lot of corners and doors making it easy to LoS some packs
-Siegebreaker is really easy if you are ranged
-You have a lot of options as to where you can farm your stacks, if a pack is too hard just skip it and go somewhere else
-Its A3, Siegebreaker has a chance to give some of the best stuff

Pretty much. In case you didn't know, the neph buff doesn't just give you 75% mf, it also increases the number of magical items a boss monster will drop.

Awesome run, i just tried it and got good gear.
Question
I got 5 NV before going into the keep, should i just skip the keep and go for seige? or is there awesome bosses and loot down there?
