Best way to farm legendary/set items on Inferno?

I assume stacking Nephalim Valor and killing bosses/elites. Played through most of Act I on Inferno Master II. No good legendary drops whatsoever.

 

Or is it just completely random? Diablo did drop on Hell (Normal) a set item for a Monk (Inna's Vast Expanse). And before killing Diablo, got the Shenlong Relentless Assault melee fist weapon, which is also a part of a set (green, lvl 60 etc, over 1.2k damage).

 

And playing on Inferno (Master II) - 0 drops. ('cept for a Legendary Ring called "Unity" which is pretty good).

 

Funny thing though, got a legendary pair of pants yesterday, with a property that "Makes me occasionally stink". I guess it pretty much sums up my luck :D

Just find an area that you like and play through it. I found tons of awesome legendaries in act 3 Inferno EASY. Set the quest to kill azmodan, then start at arreat crater 1 and work your way to Azmo. I did this for 15 or so hours grinding towards 5m gold and found some insane gear, allowing me to improve my character's DPS/survuvability so I could move on to the master difficulties.

Thanks. Might try your idea, but I'm terrible at grinding, I get bored after an hour or two of doing the same over and over...

 

So far only 100k dps, but 42% Crt. chance. Really want to make the best Monk possible, so that I can move on to making another class.

 

P.S. - Anyone try to make the "Archon" set? Seen the recipe being sold by that brat in Act 2 in the Hidden Camp. Wondering if it's worth making.

You'll want to do an Alkaizer run this is my variation of it, start on Act 3 Inferno select the quest Heart of Sin: Kill Azmodan and do the following:

 

Run through the Core of Arreat then Town Portal

WayPoint to Tower of Damned Level 1, clear in a circle, Waypoint out

Waypoint to Keep Depths Level 1, enter Keep Depths Level 2, clear Town Portal

Way Point to Bridge of Korsikk

Leave game, rinse and repeat.

It is random random.. It's always a random drop but the second random is a second layer on percentage of likelihood. I have played through a bunch of times. Some plays I can go for hours and get maybe one or two legendary items. Other plays I have had maybe 10 or more legendary items drop in one hour. I have been at both extremes and everywhere in between with this more than once, so I am pretty confident this is how it works.

I honestly thought you were nuts when you said Inferno on Easy. Then I tried it and now I think you're a genius. I get about 70k+ gold & 3-5 legendaries per run, thank you so much. :D

But the drops begin to be useless as you become more powerful and find better equipment. Good runs, though.
