Finally!! The Comprehensive BNet Magic Find Guide!!

wouldn't the ik helm max out at 100% mf if dual ist, 98% if ptopazed

My mfer is brbarian and for the loss of 14 mf from not using ik helm I much prefer +2 skills 10dr life and mana bonus from a shako.

Very nice guide Darnoc, despite the criticisms(some constructive, some merely contrary opinions) your guide is very useful for those like me just starting out in the MF game. I especially liked the character rating system, as I think that most newbies are looking for something similar to that.
Nice work

Great guide.

I didn't notice it mentioned anywhere what size games all this is happening in. Is it assumed that all MFing is done in 8 player games? If so, tips for finding games that stay open long enough to do what you need to do?

Or, can some of it be done in 1-4 player games? Boss runs maybe?

Any help is appreciated.

This is a fantastic guide, unfortunately you have a few mistakes which I would rather correct, for example FCR doesnt work for light zons, its IAS which affects them. And topazes in weapons dont give mf AFAIK.

Also, Cow Level is not TC81, but alvl81 and monsters are upgraded to TC87, and regular cows themselves are mlvl 81, because I got a Templar's might from a unique there (mlvl81+3 =mlvl84 = qlvl84, and Templars is TC87 but qlvl82, so more than enough to drop, while Tyrael's might wont drop as its TC87 and qlvl87). These differences are important as Pindleskin is TC87 but mlvl86, so he cannot drop Tyraels or Azurewrath which are qlvl87 for example.
