1) Yes
1a) Everything in an area will drops the same tier stuff, so stuff in chests will be as good as the stuff from elites. I have been doing a lot of chest farming and the drops are fairly good.
2) Not sure what you mean
3) Attributes are not determined by your mf. There's no way of knowing whether an item's stats are determined on drop or on identify, but it makes no difference, since the chances of getting any attribute is still the same.

For number 3, like if there are 2 people killing a mob, and one person has way better mf, and the person with low mf gets the final hit, are the drops worse than if the guy with high mf gets the last hit?

Has anyone else been using/ seen/ heard about the ridiculously easy Zoltun Kulle Party Glitch that gives you multiple credit/ experience/ gold for completing his quest? It has to do with party members completing parts of the quest, then resuming new games halfway through and then finishing the quest, and then going back into the original games and getting credit again, etc.?

With two players, one player gets 5x as much experience (the other only gets 1x- he's usually the rusher/ game creator/ level 60). Or to be more exact, one player technically finishes the quest 5x in a row and gets the bonuses five times. I haven't done it with a party larger than two people, but I hear that it scales ridiculously for three (like 11-4-1x or something). I just went from level 56 to almost 59 by doing this glitch in Hell mode (and it's about 3-4 cycles/ runs per level)... and it only took like a half hour. About twenty minutes more and I can get to level 60.

EDIT: I've heard this works with other high-level runs, but I can't confirm.

Valor stacking inferno is so damn fun. I know people are hating on this game but I'm getting three times as much pleasure out of it as I had from d2 and d1. It feels incredibly rewarding to get some sick item too, I just found a near perfect ivory shield and my head practically exploded.

Why all the trouble of AAA and BBB when you could just call them A en B?

Hm maybe it scales a bit differently for a party of three (I did a party of 2).

Also... here's a video for those who want some sort of reference/ source:

+ Show Spoiler +

I've never actually been the creator of the run, so I'm not 100% certain on how everything exactly works, but I think for a two-player run it's something like this:

There are players in the party, the game creator (AAA) and the joiner (BBB).

1. AAA creates game with the Zoltun Kulle quest. BBB joins AAA's game.

2. AAA takes ZK's wp, activates boss battle. Both players accept and warp to ZK's chamber. Kill ZK and his two minions. Don't talk to the Black Soulstone (BS)! BBB leaves game and AAA stands still in chamber (both player can pick up drops, but neither player activates BS).

3. BBB clicks Resume Game link and completes his quest in his own game (not AAA's). He talks to the BS, then gets reward from Adria. That's Bonus x1 for BBB.

4. BBB leaves his game and rejoins AAA's original game. BBB takes AAA's banner to ZK's chamber. AAA leaves game before BBB talks to BS. BBB gets reward from Adria. That's Bonus x2 for BBB. During this time, I *think* AAA clicks his own Resume Game link and makes his way to the BS (but doesn't yet talk to it). (I'm not 100% sure of this, because I've never been AAA, only BBB.)

5. BBB rejoins AAA's game and waits in town. Then AAA talks to BS and activates the next part of the quest which is "Talk to Adria". BBB leaves game (he doesn't talk to Adria yet!) and clicks Resume Game, and then talks to Adria on his own. That's Bonus x3 for BBB.

6. BBB rejoins AAA's game and waits as AAA leaves. Once AAA leaves, then BBB clicks on Adria again. That's Bonus x4 for BBB.

7. AAA Resumes Game again, and BBB joins. Together they get credit one last time. That's Bonus x5 for BBB and Bonus x1 for AAA (up until now, AAA hasn't gotten any credit for the previous quest completions).

I'm pretty sure that's how it's done. I've been BBB every time, and that's exactly what I did from BBB's perspective, and that's what my friend (who was AAA) had been doing (to my knowledge, and how he explained it to me).

with 2 people doing it only, one person gets 3x turn ins and 1 person gets 1. you can't get 5 from 2 people running it.

the way you do it:

1. both enter, both kill, pick up stone (doesn't matter if you pick up first, not the same as azmodan)
2. the player getting lvl'd leaves game, resumes game, turns in quest
3. that player rejoins the first game, the person holding leaves and resumes his own game, while the other turns in quest in the game that was held
4. person getting lvl'd then joins the last game, both turn in quest

you get host kicked if you do it any other way, and this is why when people were running azmodan, the 1st player would only get 14 quest turn ins from 2 different quests, not 1 like doing ZK runs

Fuck this shit. I keep wanting to play the game but every now and then something like this turns up and I wonder if this shit was playtested at all -_-
