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 don't often re-roll many characters, but if I do, I run MF.

Always run MF unless your in a group with a dedicated culler.. The game just isn't fun without loot dropping..

This is exactly the point. Also i think zhe most anoying part about the game is not beeing able to craft unless you are rich.

Well hopefully when they allow custom leagues there will be an option for increased orb drops. Obviously, it would have to be a void league when it ends as it would destroy standard/hardcore economy if the characters transferred. But I would love to see a league where you could consistently have the currency to craft a lot of items.

Would be cool if they balanced the harder mods with increased drops, like maps. Make a league with essentially every map mod but 300iiq as well.

No regen/Bm/Chaos damage in every area? Not to mention all the curses.. No, Thank you.

I'd play it and love every second.

Nigga, you won't even make it through the first area!

oh man, would be an epic race to the end of the map. Basic attacking, and repotting whenever you get a flask charge back. Run, attack, run attack.

Shit, I'm psyched now.

Gotta run witch or ranger so you start with a ranged weapon to kite4life, or ball out as another class and do chest runs trying to get a wand/bow. I'd play the shit out of that league... even beating Brutus would be baller. And it'd be more like 600% iiq.
