Does Magic Find Really Work?

[Sarumar]

Well, kind of. I work the lottery at my job, and it is much more complicated than that. Just in general though, some games could have a 1:3.5641 win ratio while another game could have 1:4.756. I tell everyone who comes through the same thing, if you go down to the casino and put it all on black you have a 50% chance of doubling up... so what are you doing here?

+1 well said, but because i have "some" experience about casinoss.... i need to say that there is also 0 in roulette

It all depends on how you are playing, some wheels have no 0, some have a 0, and others have a 0 and a 00.

I'll give you 4,000 poisons to price magic find doesn't work! No ElYr!

W/o magic finder:
2.5K small rocks w/o getting a ROLS

After getting Magic Finder Lvl 2:
1.5K small rocks, received ROLS

But... On another build
I got a rols with only 88 small rocks and no Magic Finder

Those 1 : 10,000 odds are a killer sometimes.

Just got an idea for an item: (would be neat for when duel wielding comes out)

That's a great idea, equipment that enhances certain skills! Could even have certain requirements? Like, you need MF 2 to be able to make use of the special effects of these shoes?

That would be a good requirment for this item. I was looking at the stats and thought this might be a lil better. (Maybe add in a quest where you help a priest and he blesses your Lucky Horseshoe)

Back to topic, for me, MF 2 were two wasted skill points.
Found a ChaR without grinding before having points in MF...
Had to get 13800+ kills to get the RoLS. Got nothing since then.

Edit : +1 to that Lucky Horse Shoe. Could also be a "Liquid Chance" potion that could be acquired, like Lodar's specials, with animal parts to limit the number (and/or move the grinding to other places), that would give you higher MF, but for a limited time.
