Guild Wars 2

So i am trying to craft sunrise and atm im trying to farm for 100 charged lodestones So i got my self hihgest magic find posible around 150% with omnom bars. So i started farming <in the temple of lyssa with this event were mass amounts of sparks spawn> i kept killing and killing them for like 4 hours… i met someone made a party and we farmed this 4 hours together we killed basicly around the same number of sparks in the same zone in the same time i had 150% magic find he had 30% well and he got 6 lodestones in this time anound i got 1 and i got less rares aswell … so i am starting to questioning the point of having magic find if aparently it dosent rly help .Whats ur idea about this?

There is already a thread for this – but yeah, it’s been noticed and being talked about.

You do know that Anet carried over their diminishing returns to farming the same area like they did in GW1 right?

Drop luck is still RNG based. So do this for at least 100 hours and you will see the difference. Since the drop chances are rather low 4 hours is most definitively not enough. And of course does MF help, 150% would increase the drop chance of 1% (just an example) to 2.5%, but then again 2.5% isn’t really much.
