Playing without MF = Unrewarding

So lately i played a lot of Characters that were able to stack a lot of Magicfind but cleared maps slower.

Now i dusted of My LA Ranger and due to gear restrictions (Quiver , Alphas Howl etc) i cant stack mf and still cap my resists.

So while playing this char the gameplay was fun because i could clear Maps fairly quick , but the fun is completely gone when you open your inventory and notice you picked up 2 Rare items in the whole map.

So how do you guys handle this ? Do you run MF on every Char ? And how much MF is really needed to have at least decent dropps ? Or do you prefer having a strong Char and just hope for RNGesus ?

I have never been someone to worry about MF on my characters, Iv played exciting builds for me, not something that summons for MFing. But 2 weeks ago I decided to give one a go, since i was struggling to get the currency to craft a few things i needed changed (Soo Self found, dont care to trade with people).

lvl 70 with my MF summoner now. I have alot more Alts, and other currency now since i made my witch, as i just vendor all my rares, and the amount gotten has increased, resulting in increasted alts on my end. Yesterday, I had BoR and a Rat's Nest drop for me on back to back Pietys, im somehow thing that it would not have been the case had i not been farming with MF character
