They should remove IIR from the game. I always hated MF, IIQ, IIR, whatever, its lame.

Same with experience.

The goal should be to get more powerful gear to be stronger!

Removing MF would only continuate the narrowing of possibilities in the game.

Just like I don't think removing trading, or removing atziri, or removing really powerful uniques from the game would improve the game just because I don't do atziri or use powerful uniques doesn't mean I want people to be forced to not be able to do those things if they like them as they are completely optional, just like magic find stats.

And inb4 "You have to wear MF gear"

That is a myth perpetuated by players who haven't studied the game to possess enough game knowledge to realize the many possibilities of making currency in this game with no MF or stock market simulator.

For once we agree on something.

I don't really think its a myth. Ya you can try to do no MF and just farm very fast but its just not the same. With a MF character you can kill one boss and get like 15 rares to drop. With no MF I will often see no rares at all. That's a night and day difference.

Sure you can do other things to make currency like trading/flipping. But I don't think that's a good argument as to why its ok for MF to be so powerful. Its not a good system and it doesn't offer a lot of choice. New players can never stack much of it and even if you have plenty of currency only certain builds can do a good job of stacking it. It narrows the possibilities for players instead of providing options.

Since you are able to farm with so many clients in a single machine with countless of hours, I don't think the amount of "lower than optimum IIR IIQ" you are wearing got any pull back effect.
Certain players do not have the luxury of sitting to farm for 6 hours or 12 hours with low MF.


"That is a myth perpetuated by players who haven't studied the game to possess enough game knowledge to realize the many possibilities of making currency in this game with no MF or stock market simulator."

Did you? All I can see how you make currency is farming Dominus with multiple clients. Is your statement even supported by you? Not against you or anything, but I really don't see other more effective way than you have excluded "No MF and Trading".

Aren't you doing both,? Moreover, for a player that have played so long in this game for years, you are doing Dominus farm with considerable MF for so many hours, isn't that you have concluded farming with MF is the effective way? I don't see you are doing any other way around to "realize the many possibilities of making currency in this game with no MF or stock market simulator."

I kinda like MF, BUT it would be nice with some changes to how it works. It shouldn't feel like a grind to play a non-MF char. MF simply has too much of an effect compared to playing without. Going from 150IIR/40IIQ to a "normal" char with say 20-40 IIR makes a HUGE difference in number of Rares/Uniques. So much that when i play my mediocre MF chars, I quickly run out of wisdom scrolls, and when i play my normal chars I stock up on them fast.
I would like to see a general 50-100 IIR base for chars. MF is still possible, but they get hit by diminishing effect faster and normal chars actually find a decent amount of rares/uniques.

I think the MF system is good just as it is.

If you want to MF, you gear for it and lose clear speed.

If you want to level up, you put on your damage gear and clear fast.
Not picking up all the stuff also lets you kill more monsters in the same time.

If you want both, team up, simple as that!
(Some people need to put some passives in social skills first in order to team up successfully)

Very straight forward system and no one is at a disadvantage imho.
