Remove MF completely from game

Why do completely bogus stats like IIR/IIQ exist anyway? They have nothing to do with your character. People who can't fit these stats into their build are punished unnecessarily.

You end up with stupid MF-only builds that most people don't like playing but feel compelled to because it's the best way to farm. People feel punished for playing the powerful builds that they WANT to play.

Please get rid of IIQ/IIR and make stuff drop normally for everyone. Harder content should give better drops. That would encourage everyone to actually improve themselves rather than gimping themselves to boost IIQ/IIR.

Another thing they could do is once you defeat Piety on Merciless your exp starts applying to some type of treasure hunter skill that is(think paragon leveling)

Example: Level 80
Treasure hunting: Level 10. 10% IQ. 20% IIR. So on and so forth.

Just an example.

Requirements would be defeating piety on Merciless and have some minimal level required. Cap IQ/IRR to some number and slowly just phase out MF in the future.

After defeating Piety on Merciless, I can start leveling treasure hunting up. Seems like a win/win for everyone, its not just given to you. You're going to be farming items anyway, you're not going to run into some brickwall like the current system where you have to basically roll a dual sporker to get the most bang for your buck.

One of the largest threads. One of the most viewed threads.. Not a single word from GGG. Lol. GGG,"/NotASingle****wasgiven.gif"

Having to play a build I don't like to MF is ****ing dumb and is my only turn off in this game.

I think there are good news for melee MF coming in 0.11.4.

Reave skill could probably allow you to swap Melee Splash for Increased Quantity on main attack.

Paragon lvls!

That's not the problem at all. You can't afford to lose stats on most of your gear in favor of IIR IIQ gear as a melee. Not to mention the +100 IIR you will never be able to obtain as a healht based melee character, or any health based for that sake. Not to mention a lot of the +resist nodes are linked with +ES, and you definately need those if you are going do wear 2 andvarius.

The entire IIR IIQ system should be either revamped so that EVERY build has equally viable options to stack those stats or simply remove the system as a whole and buff drop rates accordingly. I don't think the latter is going to happen, but I sincerely hope that SOMETHING will be done.

Playing a 93 lighning striker myself, in order to not get broke within days of mapping I am forced to:

a. Have a MF culling sporker in the group
b. Spend a ton of time farming on a low life spork alt. Which I don't enjoy at all.
c. Be lucky as hell and get a big drop to support my economy for weeks.

If I could be able to farm on my main character, that would be the best thing ever. I enjoy MF'ing - just not as an obligatory low life sporker.

MF from gear should be capped to around 75iiq/150 iir. This way the MF uniques would still have a meaning in the game but it wouldn't be overpowered stat. The way it is now with MF stacking infinitevely it's just punishing 90% of the builds that can't equip tons of MF items (life builds, non shavronne builds).

Also high level maps should have some bonus rarity on them as well, so people without MF build could sustain the currency to roll them too. It's very boring meta having to get high MF culler into maps every time.

Also it wouldn't hurt if at high levels character's passive magic find stats would increase few percentages per level.

Have to agree with this post..
Remove MF - nothing more to say, think the 1000 replies covers most of it.

Hi

I remember back in CB POE had MF skills on the tree towards the middle so any player could get them.
Mf needs lower stats or a cap but complete removal isn't what should happen. GGG nerf's everything but MF.

This is one of the hugest posts I have seen also on the forum so clearly this is a an issue.Jokingly:lets ask Krip what he thinks...

cheers

I can't help but say I've felt this way for a long time. I didn't know others did as well until I stumbled upon your post. I have been grinding this game for months, hours and hours at a time, daily. I feel like I have to get IIR/IIQ to be successful. It just feels.. discouraging. Like I have to gimp my character to play how I want to. I refuse to stop playing how I want to though, that is more important.
