So I just did this for and hour and got up to 1200 kills with no luck of a legendary and a few rares but then when I came back and changed it to level 20 I got a legendary on my first wave of enemies. (The Luck of the Irish is Real)

Hmm I'll increase the difficulty when I finish work today. Did you shoot them straight way or let them come out a bit ?

My understanding is that the enemy level has no effect on loot drop chance. However, I feel that hard mode makes a difference, and that yellow bar enemies have higher drop rates (not worth focusing them).

I'm 99.99% sure that killing them inside or outside the door has no effect on loot drops. Fire the second those thralls are visible.
In my experience level 9 = level 20 in terms of drop chances...

Got a primary legendary engram and got 2 strange coins for it :/ I am never going to get a legendary or even a RARE assault rifle at this rate.

I got it in the middle of the door so I guess right in the door.

I found a pretty neat trick to add to everyone's farming game...

Pretty simple, just rubber band your right trigger down so that you just continuously fire. Your character will initially shoot to the right of the doorway, but as enemies get closer, you will auto-aim towards them. As for ammo, you may notice your character get low at times, but normally my guy ends up killing a really close guy who drops 200 ammo by the time I get down to like 100 ammo left. Also, you reticle always resets after your clip empties, so don't worry about recoil.

Overall your character will kill like 5 Thrall per life, but with this trick, you can set your controller down and go do something else for a few hours and come back to all the goodies. So, not as time-efficient, but you can do this trick when you're tired of actually doing it yourself.

Happy hunting!

*EDIT: Even if you run out of ammo, it will restore after you die. This means that this is literally a way to farm for hours without being at your console.

I've been at it for an hour and haven't been pinged or seen as not active. Will update with results.

UPDATE: So just holding the trigger down eventually faded my screen and I got sent back to menu as inactive. I then tried rubber banding the joystick foward all the way, and again I was picked up. I am now trying to rubber band BOTH triggers and seeing if it'll pick up as individual pulls and not send me back to menu. As a side note, so far I'm averaging about 8 kills per death, so this is being more efficient at least. Again, I'll update with results...
