So I'm running a light sorc with around 170mf

Discuss more or less mf? In regard to finding more uniques.

Also are rune drops effected by mf?


I'm considering throwing in high mf gear to see how it is.

More mf = more uniques
More killspeed = more dead mobs = more uniques

Mf does not affect rune drops, neither quality nor quantity

It actually does. Ghosts often drop 1 size items like gems, charms, jeweils, potions and runes. Increasing the MF increases the chance of getting charms and jewels and decreases the chance of getting runes, gems etc.

Correct me if I am wrong.

You are wrong.

Mf comes into consideration when item is already selected. Itrm selection is independant from mf. It just affect the quality roll if unique > set > rare > magic (if possible)

to get more runes, increase your killspeed and farm high density areas

Suggest some high denstity area examples?

I quite like stony field/act1 areas with lots of shaman and archer mobs
Shenk I guess
Pit is decent

act2 : harem,palace,halls,tombs,viper temple
cows also good spot for runes imo

now the problem with those places are that they're bad for boss packs
