From the wiki:
A Q&A session with Isiah(sic) Cartwright revealed the way Magic Find works: “Everytime you kill a monster you roll on a number of tables, inside these tables are different rarity categories. Magic find increases the chances you will get higher categories. For example if there is a 1 in 10 category, and you have 200% magic find you will have 3/10 chances to get that category. This improves not just the rarity of the items you get but can also improve your chances at getting trophies and rare crafting materials like lodestones.”
I would say Isiah might have been mistake and you would have a 2/10 chance, not a 3/10 chance. I believe Magic Find is a multiplier and not an additional. That would explain why there’s a diminishing return to additional Magic Find. I still maxed it out long ago because, why the heck not.
1+200%=3
For those people who are not so good with percents
Hello guild wars team,
I had received a reply to my ticket 1316672. Before seeing this topic I wrote a new ticket because it had been over 6 days and I wasn’t used to waiting so long for support with a game. The new ticket is 1343152. If you could look into the issue it would be great and thanks for the time.
