With my follower I have 140 magic find. with 56k dps (non-ss), and maybe 30k hp, but occasionally some things are really annoying to kill when I'm farming act 1. So far I've managed to get 3 legendary/set items in 4 days with my magic find, but they were all bad, and I don't think I'm really getting any extra rares...is it possible to even get a worthwhile legendary/set farming act 1? Thoughts?? 25k dps without sharpshooter is way enough to farm act1. i can't see where you could possibly have problems ... i farm act3 with 40k dps without sharpshooter and 250%mf before buffs easily. imo inferno is way too easy for demon hunters... with my topgear with 110k dps/40% critchance i twoshot nearly everything and it's going to be very boring. i recently started a tankbuild to get some fun back ;P | ||

I had 5 stack throughout, and did machines of war, siege breaker, tower of damned, tower of cursed, and Cydaea in one sitting. Didn't continue cause I had a vid covering azmodan earlier, but anyway I added the video links here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=351634#1 | ||

"But I CAN'T use this better gear. That would keep me from getting better gear!" The exception to this rule is if you're playing D3 for profit via RMAH and/or gold sales. In that case, you do what you gotta do. | ||

If, at any point, you find yourself passing over a better piece of gear (whatever that may mean for your class) in favor of keeping something with MF on it, then you have lost at Diablo 3. "But I CAN'T use this better gear. That would keep me from getting better gear!" The exception to this rule is if you're playing D3 for profit via RMAH and/or gold sales. In that case, you do what you gotta do. I look at MF similarly to DPS. Both make my play-time more efficient. | ||

I put 50+ attempts into Ghom but seriously considering just giving up now, I really can't be arsed into running into a brick wall over and over. Animation for ranged attack or spawning adds. He never spawns adds twice in a row. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hR2MrPI-88#t=26m18s Animation for teleport. Notice the white glow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hR2MrPI-88#t=26m38s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hR2MrPI-88#t=27m03s Also regarding the video, did they nerf Azmo's pools or can you seriously buy 100k worth of gear that lets you tank a tick of the pool and still have enough dps to kill Rakanoth's spawns nowadays? | ||

From what I can tell, both Armor and AR have diminishing returns, so building a medium amount of each beats building a tons of one and none the other. I don't know how damage is calculated, so I may be wrong. Another thing is that most the things that kill you do elemental damage, so it's nice to have AR. | ||

It's no different than what people were doing pre-1.03: Pure glass cannon, then zerg through everything. It's only 100k because you're forgoing everything that makes gear expensive, and just going for pure DPS. If they did it in Hardcore, that would be impressive. | ||
