If you're talking anything that can drop in normal difficulty then something like:

74: Tarnhelm + Ptopaz
234: Dual Wield Gull Daggers + 2x 17mf Rare Jewel
40: Chance Guards
30: Goldwrap
72: Socketed Armor + 3x Ptopaz
60: 2x Nagelring or Magic Ring with Prefix + Suffix
50: Magic Amulet (Dual MF Prefix + Suffix)
35: Magic Boots
200: 40x 5mf sc

Total = 795mf

High IQ answer. Nice. I can't dual wield and kill with just gull daggers unless I'm horking with a barb? Didn't think about jeweling the dagger. So on a 1h sorceress, i can hit about 529 with a 3 jeweled shield.. +200 with charms..

If i find a 50mf magic circlet and get lucky at larzuk i can double topaz it and hit 553 or 619 on a horker barb

if you came for discussion you'd have answered the simple question:
what do you call "low level character stuff" and "end game"

here's the thing, there ARE circlets that aren't higher level than tarnhelm ptop and have more mf
but you wouldn't know because you didn't read the list of mf items i gave and you don't know shit in the first place
so you're ignorant and lazy but it's ok, lazy noobs can be spoonfed. Except you're also so arrogant as to refuse to ask your question in a manner than makes sense

Here's how to get the most (1167%) out of Magic Find for yourself. This does not count the maximum possible with Hirelings but you only receive that bonus when Hirelings make a kill. Add Magic Find to Hirelings to increase Magic Find even more. Some items are pretty rare making it difficult but not impossible (especially with time and trading) to obtain the most Magic Find. Alternative "poor man" items are suggested.

Helm (110%)
110% Artisan's/Jeweler's Tiara/Diadem of Luck (35% + socketed with Three Ist Runes for 75%). You can add sockets via a quest or Hordric Cube recipe.
or 90% Rare Circlet with 2 Sockets (40% + socketed with Two Ist Runes for 50%)
or 90% Set Avenger Guard: Immortal King's Will (Barbarian Only) (40% Socketed with Two 24% Perfect Topazes or Two 25% Ist Runes)
or 80% Set Corona: Griswold's Valor (30%) Socketed with Two 24% Perfect Topazes or Two 25% Ist Runes
or 74-75% Harlequin Crest (50% + Socketed with One 24% Perfect Topaz or a 25% Ist Rune)
or 74-75% Tarnhelm (Perfect 50% Tarnhelm + Socketed with One 24% Perfect Topaz or 25% Ist Rune)
or 74-75% Stealskull (Perfect 50% Stealskull + Socketed with One 24% Perfect Topaz or 25% Ist Rune)
or 72% 3 Socketed Helm with 3 Perfect Topazes.
Armor (148%)
148% Skullder's Ire (1.25-123% + Socketed with 24% Perfect Topaz or 25% Ist Rune)
or 112-113% Tal Rasha's Guardianship (88% + Socketed with 24% Perfect Topaz or 25% Ist Rune)
or 100% Wealth Rune Word Armor
or 1-99% Enigma Rune Word Armor
or 96% 4 Socketed Armor with 4 Perfect Topazes.

Weapon 1 (180%)
180% 6 Socketed Weapon with 6 Ist Runes (180%, very hard to do based on Rune Availability)
or 159% Unique Sword: Blade of Ali Baba 99% with 2 30% Ist Runes Socketed
or 117-130% Unique Dagger: Gull (100% + Socketed with 5-17% Magic Find Jewel or 30% Ist Rune) or 6 Socketed Weapon with Several Magic Find Jewels (30-102%, somewhat hard to do based on Jewel Availability)
Weapon 2 (180%)(Barbarians/Assassins)
180% 6 Socketed Weapon with 6 Ist Runes (180%, very hard to do based on Rune Availability)
or 159% Unique Sword: Blade of Ali Baba 99% with 2 30% Ist Runes Socketed
or 117-130% Unique Dagger: Gull (100% + Socketed with 5-17% Magic Find Jewel or 30% Ist Rune) or 6 Socketed Weapon with Several Magic Find Jewels (30-102%, somewhat hard to do based on Jewel Availability)
Note: Assassins could use a 3 socket claw with 3 30% Ist Runes.

Shield (100%)
4 Socket Shield with 4 Ist Runes (100%, very hard to do)
or 3 Socket Shield with 3 Ist Runes (75%, very hard to do)
or 3 or 4 Socket Shield with 3-4 Jewels of 5-17% Magic Find (15-68%)
or Moser's Blessed Circle with 2 Ist Runes (50%)
or Milabrega's Orb socketed with a Ist Rune (45%)
or Rhyme Rune Word Shield (25%) or Splendor Rune Word Shield (20%) or Dream Rune Word Shield (12-25%) or Exile Rune Word Shield (25%) (Paladin Only)

Belts (30%)
30% Unique Goldwrap Heavy Belt
or 15% Tal Rasha's Fine-Spun Cloth - Combined with Tal Rasha's Adjudication (Amulet) and Tal Rasha's Guardianship (Armor) you'll receive +65% Magic Find which will be equal or greater than a 48% Amulet and 30% Goldwrap. An alternative is the 100% Wealth Rune Word, 30% Goldwrap and 48% Amulet.

Boots (50%)
50% War Traveler (Unique Battle Boots)
or Magic Boots of Luck (35%)
or 34% Magic Find Rare Boots (can only be found by trading for Pre 1.08 Patch boots)
Gloves (40%)
40% Unique Chain Gloves: Chance Guards
or Rare 34% Magic Find Gloves (can only be found by trading for Pre 1.08 Patch Gloves)
or 25% Magic/Rare Gloves

Amulets (50%)
50% Magic Fortuitous Amulet of Luck
or 48% Rare Amulet (only found by trading for Amulets before 1.08 Patch)
or 35% Rare Amulet

Rings (80%)
(2) 40% Magic Fortuitous Rings of Fortune
or (2) 30% Nagelrings
or (2) 32% Magic Find Rare Rings (Only found Trading for items before 1.08 Patch)
or (2) 25% Magic Find Rare Rings
Charms (299%)
1 perfect Gheed's Fortune Grand Charm (%40) and 7% Small Charms (37 of them at 7% = 259%, you would have to drop Charms to pick up items) which is equal to %299. 27 7% Charms is ideal. This leaves room for a 3x2 item and the Horadric Cube. You can place your keys and Tomes in the Horadric Cube then move them out into the open space to use them. This can be frustrating to do and is only recommended for extreme players.

Why you trolling lilith0? Get off my post..

I forgot about belt. 30 goldwrap would bring it to 393

Is there a way to push it higher? Charms obv, but gear wise

Ist would bring up the required level..
If i do tancreds amulet 78 i lose 149 from angelic n ck boots but i can gain 60 or 80 on rings with nagel or magic and 96 more on the armor with a 7-27 boost to mf but losing bonus modifiers is the trade

What about dropping 45 mf from milabrega shield + ck boots for sig shield + sig boots for 50 mf..


bonus modifiers? You only asked for magic find
for magic find tacreds is better

You need to state exactly what it is you want us to google for you instead of shifting the goalposts after we answer you

I didn't mention modifiers, all i mentioned is you lose them the higher you push your magic find and i didn't know about tancreds initially and that's not in the list lilith0 mentioned.. I accept consequence of higher mf..

Feels like i find better low level gear as i level through a new character... That's why i wanted to discuss ideas. And yea i know that means magic and rares drop more,that's what I'm after as a llder

I lost my lld30 barb not logging in often enough.. Damned
55ed (low, ikr) eth rep 2 socket ornate
A 133 eth rep lance
A really nice eth rep 2os visionary helm, wasn't a primal but it had +2 combat
I had a robo naga in the stash
Filled with ed/max jewels, everything
And my 205fcr sorceress.. Poof.. Gone..

What gears, runewords etc or combination of set gears "normal" gives most mf? Not end game gear, talking tarnhelm, etc.. Lower character level stuff
I know 2 angelic rings gives 50 mf each if wearing armor and amulet for example

Looking to gear up a sorceress to start with after a year hiatus
