Magic Find %

[PerfectedDiablo]

My magic find is at 500, Now im hearing people say over 150% is bad mf because all you will get is worthless magic, rares, and Normal uniques... Is this true and if so what is the best Mf % to have. And another question... Who is the best prime/lesser evil boss to mf off... Ive had best luck with Andariel and Mephisto but your opinions will help... Thx

Take a look here to see where the best places to MF are. It should answer the general bulk of your questions.

Next time read the stickies before you have a question. Thank you.

i find that 250-450 is best %'s

 

[Darkmatter]

Likewise. I usually go with 300-350%, and I made a little more then ends meat that way by running Mephisto.

I personally think it depends on your character. I have 250 on hammerdin and 325 on sorc both MF rather well. Best think to do IMO is mf and see what you get on that run, if it's not enough try to alter the MF% on your character till you get to a nice % of MF for you.

You can't have "too much" mf. There is simply a point where putting more mf on your char reduces its ability to kill. That's when you want to cut off. This number varies by lvl and char type (sorcs can generally have more since their spells do alot of dmg even without help from gear).

no, accually, i can have any character with full mf and still kills fast. You get better drops with 250-450 mf.

Meet the Meat

Likewise. I usually go with 300-350%, and I made a little more then ends meat that way by running Mephisto.

Lol, don't you mean meet?

 

[Darkmatter]

No, Ends Meat is a term used to express ''barely getting by.'', or ''We do enough to survive'.''

i found it interesting that if ur merc kills something, its MF and your MF add together..

so you COULD have ~1400 if you let ur merc kill it

 

[HeavensHell]

I need MF's

Where do you get all your mf's? i need some my percentage is like 20%

my hammerdin has about 176, and he has still managed to come up with lots of runes (high ones um+) and gear like 39/14 dungos, 930+ tals armor, 37ed/15ias jewel

any mf is possible to mf, i prefer have around 200 mf, at least that way you should be focusing more on power vs mf; if you have a choice of +2 skill or +50 mf, i'd go w/ the 2skill... but thats just my feelings towards how mf can work

mf doesnt count for runes.

I found 300~500 the best.
