D3 Gear Farming Strats

From the latest patch notes.

Magic Find will no longer be considered when looting objects in the environment such as chests, barrels, vases, pots, and corpses

Makes doing this of lesser value, but still it's a chest!

basically rendering MF useless for the mobs that matter. for Inf mode, you need topnotch stats to beat elite packs and bosses.. so you don't have much room for MF on your gear. Its main usefulness has always been for all those items listed that i wont work for now.

Well the current method is kind of clunky, most high end players from what I've read and seen in videos will swap out their gear for MF gear right before killing the mob. Which then counts as wearing all of the gear in the first place. So do 99% damage run away a bit, swap gear - boom profit.

Me personally, with 4 characters is not going to bother that route.

Yea.. i guess you could put some MF on a few of your followers without hurting anything.
