Guide MF Runs / Finds / Treasures

i made this guide for anyone having trouble getting items and for the new people in the server that dont know where to MF. So lately when ive been playing on my sorc with 175% mf the MF runs that i usually do consist of -

Act 1

Tristam - Griswold - Socket items (ie. Colossus Voluge, Archon Plate, Phase Blade, Monarch, Sacred Targe).
Black Marsh - Countess - Runes and Key of Terror drop (highest rune countess drops in hell is Lo rune)

Act 2

Arcane Sanctuary - Summoner - Jewelery drops (ie. Ammys, Rings, Jewels, Gems, Key of Hate)

Act 3

Travanicle - ALL Council Members - Drops everything (ie. HoZ, Arach, Gores, Dracs, Maras, Sojs, BK rings, Shako, Titans, High runes, etc)
Durance of Hate level 3 - Mephisto - Drops regular Meph drops (ie. Arach, Shako, Dracs, Rings/Ammys)

Act 4

Sanct of Chaos - Diablo - Normal Diablo drops (ie. HoZ, Arach, Griffons, Windforce, Shako, Gores, Dracs, etc).

Act 5

Halls of Vaught - Nilly (Nihlathak) - Normal Nilly drops (ie. Hoz, Arach, Griffons, Rings, Ammys, Key of Destruction, etc).
World Stone Chamber - Baal - Normal Baal drops (ie. Griffons, Arach, HoZ, Rings, Ammys, etc).

Secret Cow Level - Cows - Cows are a good place to find Socket Items, Gems, Runes, Set items.

niceee GJ haz`

 

if you ask how magic find is best look here blizard explain
Magic find diminishing returns - Diablo Wiki

i use 430-550 mf and very important 0 extra gold from monsters . i know is huge and i die sometimes but when i find a big item i'm happy so if you will use a higher mf be sure you can kill all monsters from the map ,and i know is very hard sometimes with low res and dmg
however the best mf for me is around 220-270 is easy to make it and you will have damage two

 

by looking at that chart you posted it seems like 200-450 mf is the best mf to have after that you have 250% chance to find magic and 161% chance to find uniques

 

The Pit in Tamoe Nighlands Act I is also a good place for mf, i get there some good runes

 

How about templar armor , where is the best place to go if i want to find it?

 

Where is best place to find Templers or Tyreals, anyone have suggestions? assuming baal right?

where is droped new items?

 

As far as I know, in any monster lvl 85 area or higher, this can be seen in "area level list" at the begining of thread. And if you use maphack, the lvl next to the monster name.

 

Guys eventhough the drop rate is x10 we still need MF? Because if drop rate is x10 in this server I thinl 100 MF is enough.. Ithink Mr. Coldet told me that before .

 

I've noticed this too. You can do Travincal runs with zero MF and still get tons of uniques. Those of you who don't know the mechanics - MF is used only to determine the quality of the item dropped (Unique, Set, Rare etc.) but the base item (i.e. if the item that drops is Corona or Crown) is determined only by monster level/treasure class/area level and a few more things but the choice does NOT depend on MF - it's random in all cases. So the question rises - what's the point of MF when uniques drop anyway? If you ask me - killing speed and the ability to survive is more important than MF in this case. The more you kill, the more Diadems drop -> more chance to find that Griffon you have always wanted. Pretty much the same like rune hunting.

Thanks for the post, it's very useful.

 

Oh and one more thing. Area levels of 85 would drop all kinds of items right? Including CoA, Griffon, Fathom, so on and so forth.. So meaning travincal is the best place to farm if your looking for the high end Gears? Since Council mobs has Lvl 85.. Because i really want CoA for my future V/T Paladin. XD

 

Well high end items can't drop in hell, u are looking for area lvl not monster lvl...
