Which area you farm is decided by the area's monster level, not by the item —
the rule is the same for everything, so it lives on the
mechanics page.
NAMED TARGETS
Named monsters that can be farmed deliberately. The list spans all three difficulties;
each monster appears once, at its most rewarding one.
The figure is an estimated average kill count.

Diablo
hell · Lv 94~1 every 24,442 kills
Mephisto
hell · Lv 87~1 every 31,367 kills

Frozenstein
hell · Lv 85~1 every 50,171 kills
Magma Torquer
hell · Lv 85~1 every 50,171 kills
BASE ITEM DROPS
expected per kill
This counts how often the plain Ataghan drops. A dropped base still passes
a quality roll before becoming this item.
