[cdonis84]

[imyourlol]

nothing but crap and repair costs because there spawn so many mobs


looks like its patched

[madoushi21]

Just tried for a bit after spending 100k on like 110mf gear..guys need to not keep saying it works when its clearly been patched likely a few hours ago lol..

well clearly u cant get 2392392 blue items every run

[Razzko]

It's definitely not patched (still doing it right now), just bad rng for you.

It's garden hope tier 1 right?There's a few vases/one - two weapon thingys or 1 chest may spawn...it takes like 10seconds?ALL i get from the vases is little gold and the weapons are ALL white...I have 100% mf.

Well it's a great spot to farm rares now since they keep ****ing spawning on top of my head.

I wish people would stop coming into this thread with broken ideas and misconceptions.

RNG IS ****ING RNG... JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T GET A GREAT DROP IN A FEW RUNS, DOESN'T MEAN IT'S "NERFED" IT'S CALLED RANDOM FOR A REASON.

Magic finding does help, however not as much as people think. seriously, you're better off going out and spending <10k on a set which gives about 100MF, just buying pieces with around 8-10 MF on each, rather than dumping 50k+ on a single item for the extra 2 or 3 MF. It works exactly like jimskill4 said:

Lets pretend a blue has a 1% chance to drop from one of these vases. + 150% MF (1 x 150) increases our chance to 2.5% per vase.

200% MF, will only roughly net you a 3% chance for a blue to drop, or 0.3% chance for a legendary.(and no, don't expect to be given one after 33/330 runs, if you know anything about statistics at all, you will know that every entrance has it's own chance to drop items.

Also, one of the most overlooked things in my opinion is the ability to take followers, and even tyreal(thanks Trickedout)

Get Tyrael to follow you before going on the actual farm. What you have to do is the following: Take the very last waypoint you have available when you select the "Prime Evil" quest. Walk in a little, Tyrael will appear as your follower. Now go back to the farming spot. In case mobs spawn, no problem. Tyrael will just kill most of them in about 3 hits. Takes no longer than 3 seconds extra to get him and really helps a lot.

to help you... this is insane, if you spec a templar to stun / taunt the mobs, or enchantress to charm/hex, you shouldn't have a problem at all, they will keep them off you for long enough to get your items, or even kill them in some cases(even managed to get myself a loot pygmy kill thanks to tyreal, shame it dropped shit though).

Another obvious tip, if you're a demon hunter, use:
Vault(Tumble), Smoke Screen(Lingering Fog), Preperation(Backup Plan), Companion(Ferrets), Tactical Advantage(Passive)
The only time i've died in the past 100 or so runs i've done, is when an Opressor gets some bullshit charge from offscreen and one-hits me.

hillarious thread xD but ye, its not nerfed.

[Dljaltma]

One hour I got:
1 Legendary 10 Rares ~50 or so magic items.

As someone who can farm Act 4 Inferno, I would say this is a DECENT way to farm. If you can kill inferno diablo with 5 stacks(Which I cannot yet) I don't think this would be worth it. If you can handle every group of mobs, then this isn't worth it. Otherwise I think this is the best way to farm ACt 4 inferno gear.

Whimsyshire is better, though. More loot/time as well, farely easy to people with 40k+ dps. All around I think this is a sub-par way to farm, only for people who cannot kill enemies otherwise. Fresh 60? Go here. Otherwise - there are better farming places.

How do you get to that much mf? I have a neclase with 25% mf and all other items are quite good as well.. and weapons cont have mf on it as far as i know... at least there isnt an option to search... i play a witchdoc and well i get to arround 160% and companion equiped with magic find wont show up in you tooltip... but does it realy adds to your mf then?

[YoSoyFiesta]

Is it just me or did they nerf the gold from the vases?

Go to the auction house and look for armor (and offhand/shield) with search filter Magic Find 15. Adjust the buyout maximum in the bottom as you see fit (I used 60k tops).
A few hours later I had myself a set with 220% MF (necklace with 38% that I found while farming). Be sure to get a socketed helm and put your best orange gem in there for MF.

Yes weapons cannot have the stat, as far as I know. And I'm not sure how companions MF affects mine, haven't tried. Running without one in farmruns anyway.
