Best areas/bosses for MFing

Hi guys currently i am trying to gather some equipment for my chars and atm i am doing this per game with my druid: countess/summoner/travincal and meph/niht

I wonder what else could i add that can be more profitable.Lower kurast, pit runs, other kurast regions?
What are best regions for overall MFing.

act bossos - only duriel isn't popular, although if you are at the summoner, you already know what tomb he is in, so perhaps...
Alvl 85 area - pits and ancient tunnels are most popular.
keys.
cows.
easy locatable uniques - shenk and eldrich at the first act 5 wp. Pidleskin through anya portal.

I normally visit the following areas (all in hell mode):

Meph+Andy with meteorb (my character with the highest MF bonus) and no merc
Ancient Tunnels+Eldritch+Pindle with meteorb+merc
Travincal+Baal with zealot (has Enigma)
Pits+CS+Diablo with strafer (very low MF)
Countess+Summoner+Nihlathak with FO/CL sorc+merc (rather low MF)
Organs+Ãœbers with zealot

A full MF game for me consists of...

Countess, Andy, Ancient Tunnels, Summoner, Lower Kurast, Trav, Meph, Shenk/Eldricht, Pindle. If I'm feeling feisty or have extra time to goof around I might add in the Mausoleum, River of Flame and maybe Chaos Sactuary, and possibly WSK-Ball depending on what spawns in the game I'm in. Sometimes I'll also open Cows, kill everyone but the king and then bring my lightning trapper in just for the king kill.
I'm running a Blizz/FB sorc using Tal's set minus the orb (have to find it yet), rare +2, 20%FCR, resists orb, rare rings with resists/mana/FCR/life/MF, Lidless Wall-pDiamond, a 156/40/13 Gheeds (Thank you, Andy!!!), Magefists, Silkweaves. Skull Collecter on switch for boss kills. Soon as I get around to it, sockets will go in the armor, helm and Skull Collector, which will be filled with pTopaz (armor and helm) and my hellforge Ist in the staff. I'm holding off on the staff since I found a Ali Baba, if I can get another Ist I'll dual-ist that and put it on switch with my Rhyme luna instead of using the Skull Collector.
Merc is act 2 Defiance with a Leviathan, Tal's helm and Insight Cryptic Axe.

I like doing long run games like that instea dof fast single boss runs. It's more entertaining, less monotonous and no chance of temp ban for making games to fast!

Just a quick thought... Barbs have the highest potential for mf of all classes in the game, due to their dual wield ability. Two Ali Babas with ists can't be beat, if you can get 'em. It's reeealy tough to kill anything in Hell with a pure mf barb, but I had a friend who would kill the High Council in Nitemare repeatedly, and then 'hork' the corpses, which would turn up some pretty decent stuff now and then. Also, you don't need the godliest gear in the world to get some pretty stellar mf with a barb... It's definitely for players who like a bit more of a challenge, however.

IMO, running for Dkeys is the most profitable thing you can do. With a little patience and a moderatly geared character, 6x Dkey = HR, or at least it did on East a few months ago.

6x Dkey = 3x Keyset (trade Dkey for T&H)
Keyset = Organset (do it yourself, the lesser-ubers aren't that tough)
Organset = HR (either trade organs for HR's, or get unid'd torches.)

Or ID the torches and hope for something godly.

If you're looking for lower than HR priced gear, keys make good currency too.

Pros:
Easy to get to Nihl once you know the maps
Very profitable over a short period (depending on your run time)
Fast

Cons:
Repetitive.
Dangerous (tomb vipers and Nihl himself)
Lack of other items to find (although Nihl did drop me a SOJ once).
Too fast. Watch out for temp bans.
