well...i would think sorc will still dominate for mfing thats what i would do...but i have an idea for a trap azn for mf if the traps count that would be strong

Well, sorc will dominate any kind of mf where you have to get to a specific area. But for plain old mf where you kill any monter. I beleive zon are the best.

kuja this is one of the times that i strongley disagree with ya b/c there is just no way a zon can be a good mfer because in order fora zon 2 be good it is mostly items like for instance my zon last patch did 3k dmg with wf and with a crappy goldstrike or langer briser it did like 1k maybe

That's the basic idea.. but zons can kill much better and from distance so if you can get moderate mf gear on a zon. (especially lower levels) you will get some finds.. Sorc and barb are the obvious best mf characters but zons work well also!

The way to make a strong zon in mf is basicly making a java zon. Max Jab, Poison, Plague, Lightning and fury. Then rest in pierce. You can plague the monster then use fury. Quick kill against lot of monster. this shouldnt be used to mf single monster.

With Plague Java, you can do about 10k+ damage, and the AoE is pretty nice as well. You can then use MS to finish them off if you are doubting that poison kill might not count toward MF.

Barb is the best mf character class. Natural Resistance and Zerk Magic Damage. Nuff said.

Not enough damage, takes to long to walk some places.

Enigma, kind of a waste if u ask me for a MF baba, WAY easier to get a sorc.

Especially if u have to switch to dual wizzys, than you have to leave room in inv for both weps, less room for charms, especially if u use a MF switch, that takes up even more space, losing more mf.

Sorcs are the greatest mfers, and always will be.

barbs, barbs barbs barbs barbs, the #4 barb on the ladder has max find item, in hell baal runs, ive seen him pop regular monsters, and hes got 2 valors outta em, if u plan on shenk/pindle/eldritch, go barbs, !!

Find item isnt that good, and maxing it is stupid... 1 point and letting +3 warcry spears do the rest is much more than enough

Sorces are the best in mf.

Nothing will ever beat the sorc for pure speed at mf runs. I can hit hell meph 6 times before the fasest barb could even find the lvl 3 durance entry. On the other hand my barb and his merc can hack our way down to Baal at will and he seems to be dropping a lot better lately.
