If anything, pitzerkers are underrated. Keep grinding… you’ll eventually find something great.

I’m wearing about 250 mf, and close to 400 mf horking. It is true that the diminishing returns are very real past 250 mf, but set items has a gentler curve. For that reason, i think getting mf to the 400s is still worth it. Many of my great finds have been set items- tal’s armor, IK armors. They sold for quite a bit earlier in the season.


Thank you as well for the encouragement! Will keep grinding. Hopelessly hooked on d2 again. Especially now that I discovered jsp lol

Ok so, it’s just bad rng for you. The more mf you have the better as long as you kill speed isn’t affected in a negative manner.
Remember - set unique rare roll BEFORE magic(blue) so you are more likely to get that cool item but you will see more blues becasue you roll less whites. If you know what I mean

In 1 week of farming I found 2x Lo runes, both of them from the same area (Frigid Highlands).

I also found Sur from Nihlathak, Ber from random LK corpse, Ohm from Ghost in arcane and Cham from ghost in arcane.

To top it off I found a Zod from Eldritch.

My craziest luck ever for runes... all those years of farming on LOD battle.net as well as single player...

No, you are not forcing uniques to become magic with more mf. That's not how mf works.

Pitzerker isn't overrated; one thing people tend to get wrong though is they just max MF when it's actually better to hit extra breakpoints on Find Item if you plan to run thousands of runs.
Here's a boring example of a 105FCR/472MF Pitzerker with level 45 Find Item: https://d2.maxroll.gg/d2planner/2801061m#2

The MF on this one is still pretty high, even after trying to max out skills to 45.
And if you're into meme trash, there's a 200FCR version at lvl 38 Find Item: https://d2.maxroll.gg/d2planner/2801061m#1

I just like the Gothic plate aesthetic, but yeah, i have these two setups.

i sometimes uses axes just because i like the style more, PBs look goofy to me, even though they're technically better DPS.

There's no doubt that pitzerker is the best pit runner, but 300 runs is not enough to go off. It's quite easy to get a 300 run dry spot.

You need to remember why you're running pits, it's basically to include tyraels might on the drop table, there's a lot more low effort mf runs where you can watch breaking bad on a second monitor, my favorite is pindle. But if you can get the pit runs to the fastest around, it turns into the best mf spot for everything, albeit needing more focus and APM than other runs to get that speed. I'm not really down for giving that enerygy to d2 MFing for 10s and 10s of hours though.

yeah never thought about it like that but I also dislike the PBs style I might also go BA instead. how big is the dmg loss?
