Always been wondering what's the difference from 600mf 500mf 400mf and so on.


What is the deal? More mf the better?

Depends on what you’re trying to farm. Usually, more MF is ideal, so long as it doesn’t slow you down. 10% more chance to find specific Uniques you want isn’t worth twice as long runs for example.

200-300% is usually easy to achieve with a good kill speed on Hammerdins, Sorc or other mf chars.

Looking for top tier stuff griffons fathom coa ect

Good shit hoz shakos sons ect

As Chainsaw47 said, more MF is better until you’re sacrificing kill speed. On top of that, 100%mf doesn’t translate into double the odds of finding uniques compared to 0%mf.

Check out this link to see how different mf values impact your odds of finding rares, sets and uniques

Enigma 90+
Shako 50
War Travs 50
Gheeds 40
10 X 7mf SCs 70

Rest of build is just normal Hammerdin or Sorc stuff

300 total mf and a great killing speed

Ahh I see ok thanks ima build around that kinda

Ive always seemed to have better luck around the 200-250 range while I was playing online.

666mf for the hidden bonus

Raining shakos means good mf.

As Gavnling says, you start to see pretty severe diminishing returns for rare/set/unique after a certain point.

Also depends on what build/char you’re using. A balance of kill speed and MF is key.

I usually aim for between 200 and 300.
