Account Wide Magic Find - what % are you at?
I’ve seen forum posts from people claiming to have reached over 300%. I haven’t even got 100% yet, still at 98%. I’m not planning on pushing it very far over 100%, it’s just too time consuming/expensive.
lunawisp was my peacebringer on City of Heroes – she lives on in memory as my gaming id.
My magic find is up to 65%. I obviously haven’t been focusing on bringing it up.
EDIT: There have been screenshots of people with 300, though.

Because we can’t be angry about both?
I salvage every item that sells for less than 2 silver after fees on the TP. Since the new system started I’m at 83%. I don’t play much. I’m one of those dirty causals so maybe 10 hours a week max.
Around 100% through Luck I think, but I’ve stopped salvaging and I’m now selling. Takes way too much luck for it to be worth it now imo.

i am just around 36%, shows how much the game bores me…..
91%. A lot just from cracking the stuff my herd of alts parked at the end of a jump puzzle generate each day.
I wonder what your basis for comparison is…”

I’am at 130%. I plan to level this to 150% and no more than that level :
- the cost for 0 – 150% = 1/5th of the total cost (and 150-300 = the other 4/5)
- the effects abscolutely don’t compensate the cost (in PO) paid for leveling MF (i loot more greens, maybe a few more golds, but that’s all and that’s not enough to justify the investment in MF at this point)
(so why do i bother leveling my MF ? Was a bad move, indeed)
Seems like another carrot to chase in hopes of getting something better.
Don’t support the Gem Shop, it’s that easy.
I’m at 92% and I’ve stopped actively increasing it because of cost. But since I used to have 0% magic find, 92% is an improvement.
I’m currently at 107%, though I’ve stopped actively working to increase it for a week or so.

I’m at 89% right now, but I absolutely plan to salvage everything until I get to 300%. Sure it’ll take a heck of a lot time to get there, but once I’m there it’ll be more fun to run around and kill mobs than if I stopped at 150% or something.
116% here, 109% from luck
Low 60s. Everything green and blue get salvaged. I sell ectos.
Edit: 65 from luck, now that I finally got the monthly.

92% here at the moment (86% Luck, 6% account boost). Like Sorudo, I plan on continuing to salvage all blues and greens till I reach 150%. After that, I’ll TP everything that gives a positive return, and merch those that don’t. From then on, I’ll only use Luck essences that I get from incidental salvaging (days with Daily Recycler, breaking down Ectos when I need more Crystalline Dust etc.) 150% will suffice for my purposes, considering I used to run around with 0% MF.
Just about to hit 100%. I think I’ll keep going till 300% though, mainly because it’s nice having to vendor less and I like the “extra” mats.
I am at 136% want to max it but will be nice if arena net can add a title track like gw1 will make it more fun .
~100% luck, but I only average 1-2k luck a night, so it’s slow climbing from here. At least I’m going to get more from salvaging ectos soon, as I still need to save up ~500 dust for my legendary.
I think I hit 51% on Friday.
I don’t do a whole lot of grinding that nets me a whole lot of blues and greens (I only champ farm maybe once or twice a week for maybe an hour or two, for instance) so I haven’t really gotten much, though I have been salvaging every single blue and green since account-bound MF was introduced.
99% Not including those from achievements.
Casual plyaer here and I only salvage all my blues and greens from drops, not buying any.
I’m at 154 from luck, and it increses pretty slow up here. It takes 126350 to go from 150 to 160 which is more than it takes to go all the way from 0 to 100. I’d like to know if anyone even passed 200 yet.

Some people have already maxed it, or so I’m told.
I wish there was a way to see how much money you’ve spent on salvaging items (instead of merching them) compared to how long it’ll take for your MF to give that money back.
Sigh, I just want my old MF number back.
225 (200+5 acc)
There are several people at 300% I’ve just been using a slower method (also less work Vs. what I think they did).
As far as salvaging… if you’re doing it at a loss vs. NPC you’re doing it wrong

I’m at 99% right now, I think, but I haven’t been crafting/salvaging seems how I lost quite a bit of money that way.
2%.
I don’t like the magic find update.
150% from luck.
it’ll take almost 12,000 luck to get to 151 = 400 masterwork items = almost 3 full inventory screens of salvaging (or 8 screens of fine items). god bless unlimited salvage kit, but that is one boring night. best to put a movie on.
ecto->dust is orders of magnitude faster, but more expensive.

What? You didn’t get your 20% luck startup kit email?

Oh, I did. It is still in the mail. If I have to get it from there sometime, I mean to destroy the item.
I am sulking, you see. :/
I think it’s more impressive you’re at 2%. 0% would, of coarse, be better. shame on you.

(Nah, challenge not accepted. Some day I’ll have the time, energy and inspiration for my third account. Some day…)
50%. At first I planned to salvage a lot for more mf, but than I realized that its much more profitable to do some mining / harvesting every now and than instead of hoping for a good item to drop
