That's what I said, yeah.

I think you lose 20% gold income but gain a similar amount of clearspeed with active gameplay. Technically gold would be better probably, but it scales damage/hit % such that you avoid the weird "stragglers never die" issue that sometimes comes up when a mob isn't Amp'd.

The thing is that you also probably speed up your runs by roughly 15-20%, so it averages out to the same thing (almost?), as long as you're not hitting the new game timer. It might be more noticeable with less GF though; I drop from 2474 to 2024, so it's a big drop (18.2~%), but it's not as big %-wise as 2200 to 1750 (20.4~%).

They still suck, but yes, I'd love to update. Can't edit an old post though.

Use 7mf charms over 10eg maybe, then?

Depending on your inventory setup you can get 7-9 of them.
That's 49-63mf, which is likely enough to push you close or over 300?

Trade 70-90gf for 49-63mf instead of trading 160gf for 90mf at level 90. It's not a big increase, but it also depends what your goals are MF-wise.

40/12 charms + 7mf charms and use 450gf weap, idk. I'm happy at 250-280mf personally.

what yall think about this Suppposed "hidden buff" to find item? I have seen several posts here and in other forums claiming find potion is adding 1% per hard point to find item? anyone got a legit source on this?

Now I dont know how to read the skills.txt but maybe someone with a bit more brain can check MPQs for this line:

dm12+skill('Find Potion'.blvl)*par8 ?
