Q:

Does Magic Find Booster affect Unidentified Dye outcome in Mystic Forge? Plus the boost doesn’t really even make a difference in mob drops.

No idea about the dyes. Make a test with 100 dyes, once with gear on and once without.

It does affect mob drops. Not the amount of drops, but the quality of them. This you can easily see by collecting the statistics for them:

1. Play with your MF set on, collect 100 drops, record qualities.
2. Play without your MF set, collect 100 drops, record qualities.
3. Compare.

I very unscientifically have concluded that MF does impact my unIDed Dye outcomes. I have no data to back this up, but neither do I have any position in UnIDed dyes. Try it out, post results.

100 is nowhere near enough to get useful data…

SoE have finally been knocked off the top spot
in the list of developers I have the least faith & trust in.
Congratulations ArenaNet!

Maybe 100000000000000? Or simply having a dev answer would be nice…

I don’t recall any research around the internet that points out that MF gears affects MF outcome at all (lol no pun intended). Debatable about salvaging though.

I didn’t conduct any tests, but I’ve leveled 4 characters in the 1-15 zones. All five on each character. On the characters who went through with magic find, it did seem like they got more unidentified dyes than the ones who went through without.
Without +magic, I averaged 1-3 dyes per 1-15 zone. With +magic I averaged 3-5 per 1-15 zone.
