Now that some time has passed, I'm sure all you level 60's are starting to get geared out.
What are you guys currently farming? (if you don't mind sharing) If possible, please try to be a little more detailed
(i.e. provide class, gear choices, magic find %, dps, act, chapter, etc.) I'm looking to try some new things, and I've just been really bored with the game lately. I know that D3 is really fun to me when I get to play with friends. And it sucks that I can't easily do that right now with all the terrible Inferno difficulty for multiplayer.
For me, I've been mainly doing Act 2, Chapter 8 (The Black Soulstone) for 2 things:
1) Goblin farming. You start the quest, and go to Ancient Ruins waypoint. Walk right, and the goblin can spawn anywhere from the first platform all the way up to the top of the stairs (right before the checkpoint). Basically, I go do this over and over for as long as I can take with about 188% magic find, no stacks. I'm usually pretty lucky with the goblin spawn, about 50-60% over time and my drop rate* is pretty good. I can get between 1-3 rares typically with every kill; it's rarer that I would get only blues, probably. However, the gear is just not great, and I'd like to move onto a higher tear farming spot with about the same ease.
I think virtually any class can do this, as long as you have enough dps. I only have 18,000 dps with full MF gear on.
Video details it better below:

2) I farm 5 stacks from elites and then just port to the last waypoint to fight Kulle. Port into Black Soulstone quest and you can check for the goblin first based on #1 above. After you find or do not find him, go back to town and start at an earlier waypoint (easier elites typically and lots of room for kiting) and look for elite packs. There's a nick in the fence at Canyon something waypoint towards the top left, where you can trap elites and just lock em behind the fence and shoot endlessly. I kite a lot of elite packs there. After getting 5 stacks, make your way to Kulle.
For ranged people, there's a trick to this. All you do is kill the 2 golems, then at just trap Kulle on the other side of the bridge and shoot from max range. He'll never hit you, just be careful of the tornados that come your way. Takes me about 20-25 minutes to typically get through a run. Not bad for yellow farming, I usually get 7-10 pieces through out.
One thing I always try to do is swap out for my magic finding gear right before I kill the last elite mob.
