This is basically true, to counter SOME of this is to switch to Concentration (it has 1 point with 2x maxed synergies =Berserk & Battle Orders).

Okay the cheapest/quickest and easiest way to mf fast in a few areas. I do these in pvte games which gives me 100% guarantee that i get drop. If you join full games, just hork bods (very nice finds too, and mana potting required. if you want to hork fast you can switch to hotos and drop mf% by either 300 or 180 depending on your setup)
Eldritch/Shenk
Basically tele to eldritch, howl lesser minions, kill him, hork bod, then tele to shenk, howl lesser minions, kill shenk (if you want to hork the bods around, go for it)

Pindle
Same as Eldritch/Shenk. Tele into pin area, howl, kill & hork pindles bod.

Chaos
Basically do the same as Eldritch/Shenk on the seals.

Travincal
You should not need to howl them, BUT, do not go in head first, just draw them out (stand in between the two pools). Kill them as they come in close, hork bods at the same time. (if mauled by pack, you will need to either Howl or use Concentration).

Meph
Standard switch to hoto's tele there (this will require mana potting, to counter just run, tele over obstructions following one wall [left wall or right wall]). Kill council members on lvl 3, hork bods, then kill meph.

Pit/Ancient Tunnels = Slow runs but effective for finding gg items.
Basically you just need to use Concentration on mass monsters mauling you, Berserk archers/casters and stranded lesser, you can hork all bods or just the champions/bosses.

Using a Zerk barb for MFing must be the most retarded idea I've heard for a good while.
Just use a fucking hdin.

Lol, you are the perfect example of a noob in d2. You only listen to what other people say, and assume that they're right. Hammerdin for mfing? I laughed in real life.

All right..
You got a place in my sig for that

13k+ non-absorbable 125fcr hammers are bad for PvM?
All right..

Okay, this can work, made on at the start of 1.10 (different items & skills of course), basically you will need to use another merc (reason, while ww'ing Rogue sucks, runs in real close and hardly attacks because you are constantly moving position).

20 ww
20 bo
20 axe mastery
18 shout
18 howl

rest the same.

The secondary wpn should be another 5socket Rune Master (not eth, 5ists), still has decent dmg (mf% wpn option1 = 270 & wpn option2 = 150)



OMFG a tunnel vision person with no scope or understanding of MF Barbs, the only char that can get dble drops from one monster, anyway, when you realise that hammers are basically an over-used toy that everyone uses, you may consider a side trek of using skill and logic in gaming.

Hm, seems nice, would Grief + Rune master (using grief for killing ofcourse) be fine? And what about maxing conc for boss killing?

MF is PvM.
Let's have a MF contest buddy.

I'll run Pit with a Hdin and you'll run whatever you want with your zerk Barb.
We'll see who gets more itams?
