Do some research about item you want to find.
Google Silospen calculator and check it out.
I realized that on /p8, Meph has only like 1:50 bigger chances of dropping Titans, than he does on /p2 or /p3.
So I'm playing on /p3 to find Titans since killspeed on lower difficulty allows me to do way more runs in given amount of time.


Yeah definitely this... If it doesn't go again'st your rules tho! :rolleyes:

RNG mate. Some are lucky with farming and others are not. 150-250 MF is more than enough.


exactly

I'm on 299 MF atm with my javazon and there's an amazing drop rate for Titans of :
Mephisto - mephisto (NM) Durance of Hate Level 3 1:631

Still, I'm over 800 runs in without Titans, while some ppl find 2 or more of them in same amount of runs with way lower MF :D

That's another thing^^ Just saying theoretically about how it works with item drops



Mf is troll as fuck. My 2nd goal on Meph was Valk's Wing which didn't drop for 800 runs too, but now I found it on:
Maffer Dragonhand - Maffer Dragonhand (NM) Durance of Hate Level 3 1:57976
:rofl:

I’m also running him on /p3, looking for the exact same thing.

Kill speed isn't a bother to me. Im killing him in about 10-15 seconds only drinking like 3 health pots. Prefer the better chances than the faster kill. And I prefer to be p8 on as much as possible. The only thing p1 is countess as of now.

My eventual goal is always to hit 300% MF while losing minimal kill speed (or none at all). Until I can reach that 300% mark, I aim for 100-150. The main thing is to do thousands of runs, this is more important than MF. Usually for specific item hunting at an act boss, I'll spend about 2+ weeks at 6-8 hours of runs per day to find what I want. For area runs like Pit, it's more like 2++ months of the same 6-8 hours per day.

I wished I had 6-8 hours of time to play every day, Lol. Im around run #100 so still plenty to go, Lol. Found some upgrades at meph even tho it wasnt what I was looking for but I get tired of just running 1 boss over and over. :zzz:

Found butcher pupil on like run #2 or 3.


Is there a drop calculator for 1.14 versions???

Yeah gotta mix it up a bit.

I think I did around 500 NM Meph runs before finding Titan’s for my plague jav WT. It felt like a lot more! :P

I’m not sure... I know the built-in one with ATMA only goes up to 1.11, think Silospen 1.13... but besides Essences in Hell I don’t think much has changed since then regarding drop rates. I could be wrong though, someone please correct me if so.

Oh damn :( Sorry for the RIP fella! That is indeed a pretty phucky combo of modifiers!

Sounds like you got pretty lucky with Meph if you got Duriel's and Ravenfrost in 175 runs.

Yah, don't blame ya :P
