How to do a low level vanity run:
Summary - Since chests are a guaranteed loot, you want to basically just run the maps to open them. Mobs have a loot table too, so kill as you go. Bosses "can" drop a vanity, but the rates are the same as mobs and chests. So u'd be wasting time, unless your hoping for the occasional chunk of 2k drops or something. Theoretically over time you will achieve more loot by running strict chest runs. More loot = more vanity drop chances.
(Being a commando is highly recommended. Commandos have very high AOE, meaning you will skip less mobs and have a higher potential over time for a vanity drop)
- Also, unknown, but elixirs don't help with vanities. We have no proof yet, but the way we think it works is the vanity is either in the map, or its not. "IF" the vanity is in the map, maybe you can reroll your loot and potentially take the roll of the vanity in the map. So all in all, with elixir or not, you could still be doing 1-2000+ runs with a miners luck before you see a vanity.
Outer Limits Numa Prime - Host solo/in a group. Up to you if your one of those people who is really paranoid that someone else is gonna get the drop. Kill mobs as you go, but don't stop running. If that means leave some mobs behind, then leave them. Once you get to the crossroads, go down the south road to the dual mini bosses, but only open the chest and return up. Open the chest in the middle and then run noth and turn east and open that chest. Basically - your running strait to the chests while killing mobs then remaking. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT kill mini bosses. Drop rate on bosses is the exact same as mobs. Which means that you will have to kill a lot of bosses before you even see a junk white or yellow drop. yeah a vanity can be anywhere in a map, but when it comes to farming 500+ runs, what becomes more productive is maximizing your drop pool in the littlest time, vs clearing 100% of the map to gather every potential drop.
Dead Man Cave Delta 7 - CLEAR MOST MOBS; run north then east to the door with the little vulars who block the panel. Kill all enemies until you reach all the chests in that area. Don't worry about clearing the control panel, you don't need it anyways. Also, those little annoying vulars who spawn 1 at a time, forget them. They rarely drop junk loot anyways, and make your run even longer. So run back to the middle, clear the west side, clear the panel and wait for the squid people to come to life. Clear them until the little vulars start spawning to the south 1 at a time, then remake without killing the vulars.
