have to look at the level of.drops based on the acts too...

so if comparing a high mf run in act 1 vs a low mf run in act3/4 then:-
farming in act 3/4 will get u generally more better gear since more lvl63s. .. while farming in act 1 will get u more lower level junk but if get lvl63 items there is a good chance it will be better.

I don't even know if it's my luck or what. Tried to run Act 1 with 250% MF (~50k DPS clean I think), or 186%++ MF with ~60k DPS; or 166%+ MF with ~70k DPS. All I see is <lv60 craps.. Act 3 is no where better as well. More ilv62/63 but still junks (with 166% MF).

Maybe it's just my luck cry.gif

It's luck indeed.
I farm Act 1 with 205% MF for weeks and can't even make money.
Now farming act 2 inferno without MF at all for few days only and got stormshield, perfect star emerald plan, skorn and many lvl63 items..

The chances for it to drop as rare...
The chances for such rare to be an i63 equipment...
The chances of such i63 rare to roll good affixes...

Wrong.

Act 1-2 still wins, even if Act 3 has more iLvl 63 drops, because

1. MF increases basic drop rate of rares,
2. MF also increases chance the rare has more affix

This double multiplicative makes Act 1 drop higher quality in general.
