Skullder's Ire: (better than armor with 4 perfect topaz gems if your char level is high enough) I wore some of that stuff all throughout hell. I also like the Sigon set, super easy to find since it's a very low level set (needs only level 6) and when you have the boots, belt and gloves you get +50% MF.

That armor has no resistances but I have those maxed out with my other items (my shield alone gives +111 on all resistances, standard paladin shield with decent base all resist and 4 perfect diamonds so no high level gear) I like using Skuller's Ire because its MF bonus increases with your char level, gives my level 87 char more than 100 MF just from this item. Getting the equipment for making mf running sorc is the easiest once you have a mf sorc that can do runs in hell the drops should start rolling in quickly.

Liquidsnakehpks: remember the easiest way to get the mf up is to have a 3 socket shield with jewels or runes( Ist Rune) in them, at the start have perfect topazs in every equipment socket you can, getting 100 plus mf is easy this way, If a player needs to play in hardcore mode, it's possible that they already grew too numb to get excitement from playing the game normally, of course this doesn't automatically mean there's a health problem in the brain and it also doesn't mean that people who casually play Candy Crush are more chemically balanced brainwise. Therefor, the questions arises whether this messes with the brain chemically because you keep putting your mind on edge way beyond natural frequency especially if you play lengthy sessions - this could potentially kill off many dopamine receptors and ultimately make people more numb. I see playing on hardcore as an artificial hormone rush creating device but unlike in a really dangerous situation, you're still sitting in front of your computer in comfortable safety. The EXP penalty from dying in hell mode is already incentive enough to try keeping your character alive imho. I don't play hardcore as I consider it a masochistic obsessive compulsive thing rather than anything remotely fun. Personally, I don't see how one can even get 300 MF in untwinked singeplayer and I think killing speed and resistances are way more important than high MF - especially if you're playing hardcore. Awalterj: Magic find is a catch 22 thing: In order to have a high MF percentage you need to have good gear but in order to find that kinda gear in the first place, you ideally already have high MF.
