Low Down On MF.. MUST READ
For those who think mf helps a shit load.. read this.. taken from battle.net
http://www.battle.net/images/battle/...eader-left.gifhttp://www.battle.net/images/battle/...tterchance.gifhttp://www.battle.net/images/battle/...ader-right.gif "% Better Chance of Getting Magic Item" can provide a significant increase in the number Unique, Rare, and Set Items you find. Players that wish to find "good" Rare Items, and more Set and Unique Items will want to invest heavily in this magical bonus. Just remember, you can never have enough % Better Chance. Increasing your Magic Find Percentage will always help you. "% Better Chance of Getting Magic Item" does not increase the Chances of getting an Exceptional Item but if you do roll an Exceptional Item the chance of that being Magical/Rare will increase. How do Chance to Find Magic Items really work? If you find an item that gives 20% Better Chance of Getting a Magic Item, and a Monster has a 2% chance to drop a Magic Item, you will now have 2.4% Chance of getting that Magic Item. I have a 100% better chance of getting magic items but I don’t get them all the time why? This is base upon the monsters chance to drop an item. With a 100% better chance of getting a magic item, a monster with a 1% chance of dropping a magical item would have that random chance go up to 2%. What exactly are "Magic Items" Magic Items in this definition include Magic Items, Set Items, Unique Items and Rare Items. Is there a cap on Magic Find? No. Is there an ideal % Magic Find Number? No. The more the better. Previously a bug resulted a penalty for more than a certain percentage, but this has been fixed. I heard if you get Magic Find high enough you get all Sets and Uniques No. This was the case in previous versions due to a bug but that has been corrected (sorry!). Will Magic Find work on Barrels, Chests, or other non Monsters that drop items? Yes. Does Magic Find work on bosses? Yes. Will Magic Find work on Runes? No. It has no bearing on the number of Runes you'll find (you don't find more magic items and less Runes for example, nor is there a greater chance of getting a Rune or a better Rune, etc.) Will Magic Find work to increase finding Magic Items with the Barbarian's Find Item Skill? Yes. Will Magic Find help getting better Items from Gambling? No. Will Magic Find work with Minions and Hirelings? Yes. When you make a kill, you get the Magic Find % of yourself only. When a Hireling gets a kill, it uses the combined Magic Find of the Hireling and you. How does Magic Find work in a Party? The chance to get a Magic Item will be determined on the player that makes the killing blow on the monster. If the party has several items that give a Better Chance of Getting Magic Item, they are not added together, whichever party member makes the killing blow will determine the chance of getting a Magic Item. For the best results, have the player in the party that has the best Chance of Getting a Magic Item finish off all the monsters. Magic Find Returns While there is no cap on Magic Find there is a diminishing return formula (that is not available) that becomes active over 10% Magic Find for Rare, Set, and Unique Items (But Not Regular Violet (Blue) Magic Items). This does not mean that it's useless to get over 10% but it does mean that the benefits drop off as you get higher and higher Magic Find. The most Magic Find is still better than less Magic Find. Maxing Magic Find So you want to be the king or queen of Magic Find? A common comment is with a lot of Magic Find you'll not be able to kill anything. Some classes such as spell casters (Sorceress, Necromancer, Elemental Druid) are more capable of sacrificing all equipment for Magic Find. You may wish to create "Magic Find Characters" to "farm" or find items then use those items on other characters. Here's how to get the most (1157%) out of Magic Find for yourself. This does not count the maximum possible with Hirelings but you only receive that bonus when Hirelings make a kill. Add Magic Find to Hirelings to increase Magic Find even more. Some items are pretty rare making it difficult but not impossible (especially with time and trading) to obtain the most Magic Find. Alternative "poor man" items are suggested. Helm (100%)Magic Find Totals 100% - Magic Find Newbie 200% - Magic Find Newbie 300% - Magic Find Newbie 400% - Magic Find Regular 500% - Magic Find Regular 600% - Magic Find Professional 700-1157+% - Magic Find Master |

|
Oh ok, your thread sorta made it look as if you thought you had discovered something new.
|
Yeah, thats what I thought it would be. But just useless old info. :(
|
Wow, someone else actually read the FAQ and Info on Arreat Summit. Kudos to you, you faggot (Joka69). Most everyone who made threads on MF were using that information as a given, as in everyone took that into effect. Then came up with theories.

But of course. I neglected to reply to one of your posts, so I thought I should clarify.

Well, its new to me.
I dont play the game anymore, but when i played i had 780% mf one time, i guess that would make me a " Magic Find Master" Pwn. |
I've mf for over 3 years and mostly with an amazon and sorc......i find that having mf% items helps yes but having a high lvl character also helps......I find better uniques with higher lvled characters than with a low one eg. a lvl 82 is low a lvl 96-98 is high it may take a longer time to get here but you have a better chance of getting a better item......where you go is important too but thats another subject......

Level doesn't have any direct effect on Mf'ing.
MF% and the monsters you kill are the only things that have an direct impact. |
You better not start with me soccer boy. ;)

Character level affects the TYPE of item dropped (Normal/Exceptional/Elite), whereas MF% affects the QUALITY of item dropped (Normal/Magical/Rare/Set/Unique). I get tired of explaining that. |
WOW!!!! holy shit Senesia is back well i must have missed it some time recently so welcome back, you are one of the few people on Zelaron the act mature, and are helpful
|
It's alright. Sometimes people need to sound like broken records for the incompetent to understand.
|
It gets tedious to answer the same question over and over again.
|
Fortunately, I have prior experience doing such a thing, since I worked a lot of Customer Service.
