So what is most important when figuring out which faction is “best” for farming? Average multiplier or Chest upgrade probability? Or multiply them both together to find largest #?
Don’t forget “how horrible would it be to try and beat (1) at level 500, or (2) with a faction team”. That’s the reason I use Sea of Sorrows (which, incidentally, is high on both of your scales).
I’m not sure. I didn’t use a Farming Faction strategy.
I think average multiplier is the most important. It relied least on luck. Chest Upgrade can change wildly depending on it. So far with the data we have right now, Fang Moor might just become the best Farming Faction.
I think even if the new faction is a tiny bit better technically, the fact I would have to basically not participate in this event and pass up an opportunity to get a good headstart on the journey to lv 500 means I think I’ll stick with SoS.
It also has two guaranteed Treasure/Buff rooms, which typically have a Room reward of 800-1200 gold. When multiplied by the Room Multiplier, it’s almost like getting PvP gold rewards at the speed of an Explore battle.
