where do you want to mf/goldfind?
do you want to run bosses, cows, or just kill anything?
do you want to do this solo is full games, solo in single games, coop in full games?
what do you have for items? you can get ~200%mf just from magic items but with a full setup you can get +400%
if you want to run solo you'll run into fire imms very soon and once you hit hell you'll run into cold imms all the time.
going with a one tree build works well if you want to run cows but it wont work well if you want run the cs/diablo.
Static is the best skill if you want to run bosses. the higher the lev you have the better the range will become. that way you dont need to get close to what you want to kill (and wont get hit)
going with orb or blizzard will work very well but blizzard will take up more points then orb. if you go with orb you can make them 3 ways.
max orb/icebolt/mastery: if you use a full mf setup then you wont have any +skill items other then a tarn maybe. so this works very well but leaves you with less points for a 2nd,3rd attack.
max orb/highlev-max mastery, 1 point icebolt: this saves you over 19 points that can be used in a 2nd attack skill.
max orb/max icebot, 1 point mastery: this works best if you only pvm and have a lot of +skill items, if you want to run bosses then low mastery isnt what you want.
max orb, 1 mastery, 1 icebolt: this works best if used as a 2nd attack skill.
going with a fire build of somekind:
max firewall, mastery: 43 points for very good dmg
fireball: max firebolt, max FB, max mastery by not going with meteor you save 4 points.
meteor: 1-max firebolt, max fb, max meteor, max mastery more points so its harder to have a 2nd/3rd attack.
lighting tree: its not as strong as other skills but can work well. since this is D2Classic and you can SF monsters down to just a few hitpoints you could make SF your main attack. at high levs the range is close to a full screen, so you cast that 2-3 times then cast your killing attack (orb, fb, chain lightning/nova) since SF does most of the dmg there isnt a need to have a spell that does a ton of dmg.
i'll make a post later of all the D2C mf, goldfind items that can be used.
