30-40% mf blue ring. where/what/how u get/find one?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
another topic:

i have been doing a few hell cow runs now, with a full geared mf fury zon.

the hell cows rarely drop rares, but it does seem that they do have the same mlvls/area lvl as hell cs and can drop every mod.

so for the most part, hell cows, seem mostly useless, unless u wanna run them for infinity (which would be the only way of coming across rares with godly mods).

i'm not sure how much hell cs compares in terms of rares and godly mods in this regard. maybe it's the same for hell cs. though hell cs monsters seem to drop rares more often than the hell cows (possibly due to nerfing of hell cows).

as for hell king, i have't done mf runs of him yet (as the fury zon can't kill him).

hell diablo (and the seal bosses and/or random unique monsters) definately are the best sources of godly rares in the game. the problem i have is that it's a bit slow to do by myself and if i do public, it's near impossible for me to get the items before the 7 other players do.

forgot to mention abuot the hell cows:

i was only doing them with 1-3 players in the game. possible if i could do them with 8 players in game, they might be dropping much more rares due to more drops occuring.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
update on hell cows:

i did a public game with 8 people and partied, it makes a BIG difference in terms of drops!!!

hell cows is VERY VIABLE for godly rares when u do 8 player games and get much much much more rare drops (due to more drops due to 8 players and + partied), than when i was doing private with only 3 players (including myself). just make sure the people killing have lots of mf for best results :D

anyone with info on the 30-40 mf blue rings? orphan or whoever, any help?

a tricky one, this 30-40% blue mf ring...
i don't know if there is something like a guide as how to find them, i don't think there even is a specific place where to find them, but maybe nightmare difficulty could be a good place to look for them?

i found mine somewhere in act 2, nightmare difficulty (EuSCL) - questing through the game, collecting about each and everything i found, blue rings included, as i had just started from scratch again, playing again after a break of some years, no equipment, friends list long gone... and this first character of mine had to find the gear for the next characters too... some mf gear on the character, at that time, but just what i had found along the way, can't remember how much mf was involved in the finding, a bit, not much. and probably the ring even dropped from a normal monster. (can't tell, i just stuffed my inventory with what i picked up along the way, and the next visit to Cain revealed whether it would fill my stash or my cash.)

as the number of available/possible affixes generally tend to get more with higher levels, maybe the chances are a bit higher in the area where i found it, as more available affixes make it less probable for one specific affix to be created? but then, it could have been pure random luck, even the area.
i haven't found another one since. they're really hard to find.

Best way imo is gf barb on hell travincical and spending the found gold on rings. One will be found eventually, but i sure can't figure out why one would want this kind of ring :)

not every character who wants mf can or wants to wear the angelic combo.

It makes more sense for a casting character that doesnīt need AR to wear two 40 MF rings than two 30 Nagels, thatīs why.

You can also use 3 amulets in your cube and turn it into a blue ring.
3 rings turn into an amulet.

Hmz FK'ing is much more profitable in classic as uniqs are not what one is after -> zero mf is better than huge mf ^^

And if wearing mf gear in cs with pala or sorc before removing them for fking diablo. I can honestly say that rings are not the place to get the mf up and still survive ^^

And trav barbs certainly cant wear pure mfrings...

Where you mf with your chars? If its only for distraction then i understand, but if its for accumulating wealth it makes no sense :coffee:

the reason for the perfect 40% mf blue rings is that tehy are required for the MAX possible mf amount in the game. the angelic rings do give 50% mf however due to the other set gear required for the mf bonus your total mf of gear is actually not the best-most. for the maximum mf possible on your character u need to use the 40% mf blue rings. nagel rings which are much easier to find (i have a 29 and 30 mf nagels) can only reach 30% (perfect nagel). the blue rings are able to get 10 mf higher for 40 mf (perfect blue mf ring). and two of them means +20% (80-60=20) more mf (40+40=80. blue rings) compared to two nagels (30+30=60. nagel rings)

you ARE right....VERY FEW characters/builds can actually use full mf gear effectively. full mf gear is mainly only possible on a find item (popper) barb. i'm just a perfectionist. i want 40 mf blue ring because that's 10 more mf per ring than using a nagel. :D

just saying that when i wanna use mf rings, i'd rather use/have 40 mf rings (blue-magical rings) instead of 30 mf rings (nagels-uniques-bronze rings):D
