Best/Fastest/Lease Resource using Farmers?

As a level 39 cleric I have been farming for too long for rough furs, etc to make copper bars... so long I had to do something else just to kill the monotony of it.

That said, I have seriously considered making a character to stay level 39 and farm level 37 creatures till I puke.

However I have NO IDEA which character is the best...




From personal experience:

Cleric: Slow pace but effective, Mana pots, Focus Powders and Jade Powders high consumption in order to continue.

Venomancer: Thankfully, the switch mana and health spell are priceless: Once health is 100 percent switch, poof refilled mana and only two perfect health pots and you're on your way again. If it wasn't for this, the Cleric and Venomancer would be in my opinion equal.

Other than these two I haven't experimented with the other classes.



So the question is:

Although there may be faster killing characters out there, which one is the most EFFICIENT so I can save money and materials and yet farm my brains out for hours on end???




Thanks for all useful comment ahead of time.


P.S. out of curiosity, which is the fastest as well?

Lease = Least :)

    Personally, I'd use a venomancer to farm. Why? You don't need to run back to town for more pots, nor do you need to sit and meditate if you don't want to run back to town. Clerics probably kill faster, but they have a rather bad mana upkeep. Not to mention armor repairs. If you're cautious, venomancers only need to repair their weapon, as their pet will be taking the damage for them. From my experience, every other class also needs pots/charms to farm efficiently. Only the venomancer can bypass this with Nature's Grace, Metabolic Boost and Soul Transfusion.

    Venomancer:
    1. Low to zero repair bill
    2. Easy to refill life / mana
    3. Save your brain more than when playing cleric
    4. Pets / legendary pets
    5. Doesn't need good equipment
    6. Semi AFK play style

    I agree and do this also.

    I picked a tanker pet and I send the pet to kill a mob, as I dig plants/mines at the same time.

    Note: I did invest in a very cheap tome to keep the pets loyalty up (saves me pet food) and I keep the veno this level by feeding its sp/exp to a genie, which I turn break down and resell later. I also save the arrows to give to my archer as well as the MP/HP pots to give to my other alts. I basically recycle everything I get from this tiny farmer. I also keep some coin, and buy tokens to buy Material Stones and so I have a place to store items w/o csing for banker stones.
