Killing the bosses, Mephisto, Diablo, and Baal are the best drops and they can all be reached quickly, especially Mephisto. It can be a lot of fun to load up all your best +MF stuff and do item runs on normal or Nightmare where you don’t really need much good gear to survive. Barbarians are very good too since they get huge hit points and resistance bonuses form their skills and stats, so need less good equipment to survive, and can dual wield Gulls or Ali Babas for a huge Magic Find bonus from the weapon slots. This really starts to ramp-up with 200-300%.Ĭharacters who can kill with their skills, especially Sorcs, are the best at going to a very high Magic Find, since they don’t need equipment for their offense.

Players should aim to hit 100% Magic Find which will become noticeable. While there is no Magic Find cap, there are diminishing returns. A four-socket armor and 3 sockets helm can boost Mafic Find by 168%. The sought-after items such as uniques and set items will start to drop as you accumulate Mafic Find items.Ī recommended method to boost Magic Find relatively easily is to socket perfect topazes into Armor or Helm. Just about every type of item in Diablo can give you Magic Find bonuses, and while smaller items such as gloves, boots and jewelry can produce +10% or 15% or 30% Magic Find individually, players start to benefit with an array of items all boosting Magic Find.
