[Farming] Act 4 Inferno Chests / Items
...with 200% MF and more.
Like the title says, this guide is about farming items on inferno difficult with as much "Magic Find" (MF) as you can get. The only requirements you have is to unlock the inferno difficult with your char. You can also get massive amounts of MF because you won't fight mobs, you'll only farm chests, vases an weapon racks. I wrote this guide in three steps, so here they are.
First Step
(Get a MF Set)
Get your full MF Set, if you don't have already. MF find can appear on each item, except weapons, so there are 12 slots where you can equip MF items. There are two ways to gather those items fast.
- 1) Vendors
Vendors do sell random MF gear up to 12% MF. Start a game, check the vendors for those items, buy (or not) and quit the game. Repeat this until you have some MF Items.
- 2) Auction House
You can buy many MF Items very cheap here. Go to the AH and search for: "Item Type: Armor" and choose the item slot where you need more MF. Set "Preferred Stats (Optional)" to "Magic Find Min Value: 10%" - depends on how much MF you want to have at least. If the searched items al listed, sort them by clicking on the tab "Buyout" and go to the page where the cheapest auctions begins. You should now have a good amount of choices for your item.

Second Step
(Get the waypoint)
Go to Act 4 Inferno. You will need the "Gardens of Hope 1st Tier" waypoint. This is where you will farm your items.
- Start a new game on Hell on the quest "Prime Evil"
- Leave the game
- Join a public game on the quest "Prime Evil"
- Leave the game
- You should now be able to start a new game on inferno on the quest "Prime Evil"

Third Step
(Get the Items)
Equip your MF Set, if you don't have already and port to the "Gardens of Hope 1st Tier" waypoint. You will be portet on some kind of platform. Walk north and south of the teleporter and destroy those vases and weapon racks. There are also sometimes up to two chests in this area. Additional, there is almost always one shrine close to the waypoint, so in some cases you get additional +25% MF through the buff. After farming, quit the game and click "Resume Game". The room will be reseted, so you can port and farm again. Don't go downstairs or you will die. Farm only the room direcly at the waypoint. Repeat, repeat, repeat and profit! The only problem is, that there will sometimes spawn mobs. If so, you have to run through door in the west, quit and directly open a new game, because you cant beat them.

If you get used to this farming method you will be very fast and loot much more than playing normal. Through this is act 4 on inferno, you will often get the highest Items in the game, just hope for some good enchants.

Happy farming, guys :)
Hints
(From replies)
- Set your buyout price to 999.999.999 (or some other big number) so it will filter items which have no buyout price.
- Take your companion with you and give him also some MF items.
- Sometimes, there is a Treasure Goblin downstairs - but be aware of the mobs.
