Need MF Advice

[DementiaMaster]

I recently started on Ladder creating a Lightning/Cold Sorceress. She's currently Level 55 and has about 150% MF since I don't have great gears. She kills really really quickly but any ennemies will take her down quickly...in other words, I kill as fast as I get killed. My question is: Where is the best place to MF in Normal/Nightmare besides all the Bosses?

nm eldrish w/e his name i cant spell it and shenk is awsome.

The Bosses are pretty much your best bet, me thinks. People only kill Super Uniques and Regulars (such as the ones in The Pit) in Hell because they have the potential to drop some very high-end items.

I don't see why you can't do Andariel/Mephisto. O.o

The gears, the gears x.x

Weapon: +2 all skills +3 lightning mastery +2 energy shield 10% FCR

Boots: 34% MF
Ring: +7 energy 10% MF

the mephy moat trick allows a sorc to just chill below meph and cast spells until he pops...

and you have the skill teleport.... so use it... tele away from any of andy's psn attacks and she is cakes and pies... :uhhuh:

Eh......, how much faster cast rate do you have? 10?

My advice:
Get a spirit sword. (tal+thul+ort+amn, +2 skills, 25~35 FCR)
Get a spirit shield if you can and want to use it. Monarchs are a bit harder to find, and the str requirements. (tal+thul+ort+amn, +2 skills, 25~35 FCR, resist)
Otherwise, get rhyme if you can't/don't want to get spirit. (shael+eth, block, mana, CBF, MF, resist)
Get a stealth armor. (tal+eth, 25 FCR, run/walk, mana regen)
Get a lore helm if you wish. (ort+sol, +1 skills)
Otherwise, 3 topaz helm works well.
Get an insight polearm, ANY insight polearm, for merc. (ral+tir+tal+sol, nice damage, and a godly lvl 12~17 meditation aura, my personal favourite mid-lvl twinking item)
Get more FCR rings if you don't have enough.

You NEED 63% FCR to tele Andy/Meph safely.

The runes for these should come up very often during your normal game play, or just run nm contress a bit. This was how I started my meteorb sorc at first ladder, except for the fact that a monarch was passed to her from my necro (started at same time) when she was doing hell.

The gears you suggested shouldn't be too hard to get. I only need Tir to get Insight but thul+ort+amn twice each. I can do Normal/Nightmare Countess runs until I get the required runes. I already have a Stealth armor made out of a +100 defense armor.

FCR is the key it seems. My mana doesn't regen very fast but that Insight seems really really awesome. I'll gather up all the pieces and get back to you all.

Thanks for the valuable advices everyone :)
