Guild Wars 2

As the title suggests, I need to decide between which infusion to get for my amulet. I know there’s no solid evidence for MF working or not, so is it simply 20% more gold from monsters all the time vs. 20% better chance to get good loot on occasion?

Which infusion would you suggest I get?

Thanks!

Gold. MF Is an even more dead stat than gold find.

In all honesty, 4 power.

I would say gold if you do dungeon runs, MF if you do event farming.

But really, it’s up to you and your personality. Gold drops will be more consistent. Magic find can return nothing or really awesome/expensive loot.

Yeah but even when it is awesome/expensive loot it might not be the awesome/expensive loot you were looking for.

Also just to make things explicit …. the reason for gold find in dungeons is because there are champions in there with guaranteed gold drop. 5 or 10s for the ones in AC, haven’t paid enough attention to the other dungeons.

If you do a lot of dungeon running, definitely Gold. It will add up rather quickly over time. Otherwise, I’d go with Karma or Gold depending on your preferences. MF is too nebulous a stat and it’s still linked to the spectre of RNG. You could have a permanent +200% MF and still get nothing for weeks on end.

Gold, no doubt. Especially with the new addition of gold banners and boosters, there’s no reason at all to rely on magic find.

Gold is better than MF. Gold infusion will always benefit you whereas the MF infusion won’t. You may get a good drop every now and then but how do you know it was because of the infusion?

I’d say MF. The monster’s I kill never drop any gold silver or copper except bosses.
