I’m 99.99% sure mf makes no impression on items you get from map completion (I’ve read time and again it also makes no difference on chests)
yes, you get 2x as much of better loot. I was referring to how much loot you get that’s actually worth your time.
I just made a post elsewhere regarding mf and it’s usefulness. I’ll copy/paste it here:

well, here’s the comparison between my mf and pvp gear. you’ll notice my mf isn’t complete yet, and I do leave a tad of mf on my pvp. sometimes it’s too much sacrifice for that last 5%, and too easy to throw in 10% because the rest of it is nice. This is not including omnomnberry bar or any banner boosts, but does include maxed sigil of luck on mf gear.

_ ___________mf___________pvp________pvp-mf_________(pvp/mf-1)*100%
Power_______1909_________2097________188____________9.85

Healing________25________85___________60____________240
mf___________132________17___________-115__________-49.57
_____________luck sigil____fire sigil
_____________mf runes____divinity rune
for the Average attack I used this formula: (1-Crit%/100) * Attack + (Crit%/100) * Attack * (1.5 + Crit dmg)

Conclusions I see: mf gear provides 98.2% more “items” (better, maybe? iuno, the mechanics are besides the point), while requiring 25.47% more attacks to kill something, and can take only 80.69% as many hits.
As you can tell, my mf is pure glass cannon, while my pvp focuses on adding toughness and more dmg.
From these numbers, I would expect mf to find 232 “items” from killing 100 grubs in the same time as my pvp would find 147 “items” from killing 126 grubs.
sigil of fire would also make an impact, but it depends on mob density, and I have no idea how much damage it deals. I doubt it makes up that difference, though.

So, as far as taking a hit on how well I kill things and a leach on a group: mf absolutely impacts your usefulness. Is it worth it? yes.
Final advice: pvp gear when others depend on you, mf gear in your own time. mix it up if you can’t afford both.

wow this is great information, im glad u answered my questions about mf gear. thanks!

Aveneo.2068:

I believe this has to do with an exploit where people could make them in order to get the snowflake back as well as free ectos when salvaging them immediately afterwards or something. So they temporarily disabled it.

this was only for the level 75 rares, why take away the exotics?

anyone know if they are changes or just temporary disabled due to a bu?

cannot craft the orichalcum rings or amulets.

also, for whoever reads this, i am just up for map completion, farming is not my thing, but i do kill mobs on the way.

should i use MF or no MF for map completing?
edit: dungeons as well

no one else noticed this?

the vendor does not work, nor does miyani sell the donations packages

why is it disabled? will it be up soon?

google is the key.

Panda Shepard.1248:

It’s disappointing but it’s not even very good loot really. All I’ve ever gotten is a couple greens :/ Don’t feel too bad!

Anybody gotten anything better?

just a worthless lv 76 shield, only 1g =/

Mystic.5934:

the difference between mf gear and other is only like 300 total stat points out of like 3000 (this is because you have a LOT of base stat points). sure, this means you are 90% as effective, but if you get 2x as much loot, it’s a fair trade-off.
that said, I still switch to pvp gear in tough situations

u dont get 2x as much loot, u get 2x chance of getting better loot.

Maximus.8376:

He’s not going to loose 2g because as you can see no one buys it for even 8g

if you list it, it doesnt mean it’ll be gone instantly.

Ravion Hawk.4736:

Since most exotic gear is only worth less than 5-10 silver to a vendor, anything past 15-16 silver is a profit.

Wow, he isn’t going to get 9-something gold out of it, but he is still making close to 160 times the vendor value of it. Quit complaining.

congratulations, u compared an exotic’s worth with the merchant sell price. genius.

Mohmohchan.4120:

its a glitch. you cannot post legendaries on TP.

proof please.

who are these people that sell for so much less and leave the rest to lose profit?

so heres my plan… u lure the dolls into other players or other mobs and let them help u kill the dolls.

i do find that the plants in TA target me with their aoe much more often than others.

Nez.5764:

I wore MF gear as soon as I was able to get my hands on it. I ran everything with it on for the first month and a half at least. Now, I wear none and get real nice loot, dare I say even better than before? Yep, indeed I do and quite a few guildies/friends have said the same.

So, the impact of MF was not justifiable by us; Of course everyone has different opinions on it.

thanks for the input, i have gotten only a few exotics while wearing my mf set but they are only level 76. from that said, i have never tried a non-MF set, but i have experienced people in my party getting much better items in farming than i do and they only have about 20% magic find while i have 140%.

i currently have a magic find set, but thinking of replacing it because of the extra stats other sets give. i am doing fine with my current set.

so is it more beneficial with MF or a set with more stats?

u can just grab the gift and run

i cant say im enjoying this, i get knock down when i try to jump at parts of the puzzle, i think its because of the snowfalkes layers, its annoying when i already suck at jumping puzzles

is there a map where the locations are? i know there are some in LA, but that it.

they can drop but literally, its a RARE chance

my friend went on vacation for a few weeks, but he attended event and didnt get anything, now hes back and he didnt get his chest?

even the people who weren’t online for the event? or only the people who were online for the event?

i guess i’ll wait a couple of hours and probably be mad cuz Anet prolly forgot about me ):

i cant help it, im panicking

omg everyone got theirs and i didnt get mine yet ):

half the players dont rep the guild. the ones repping never talks. i been in 4 different guilds now and not been happy. i’m in my fourth guild now and planning to move on because the leader is too scared to get people to rep the guild. he is always in vent with his friends (the officers) and rarely talks to anyone else.

i usually ask questions like “who wants to do dungeons?” or “anyone want to party?” no one answers. cool.

lol someone is butt-hurt.

well please explain to me why a gold bar cost less than a gold?

i cant believe how stupid this idea is.

not being F2P is the sole reason i purchased the game in the first place.

is there a timer for every world boss, not just the dragons?

if no, why?

i wasted about 8 hours.

4 runs and each time someone dc’s or leaves halfway. then we couldn’t finish. I’ve decided not to touch fractals again. sigh…

the higher the level, the higher the reward? or is it just a self satisfaction thing?

light armor with:
-vitality
-power
-precision

hoyasaxa.1974:

The AMA provided some interesting answers to a few of my questions about the recent updates. I sure would like to hear something regarding the accounts that were disconnected during the event. We were told to expect something early this week, and it is no longer early this week. I’ve just been routinely updating my ticket.

same here

yeah i hope we get an equal chance for the goodies for the people who could get the chest. that’s what i would expect since we spent so long and some people just log on 5minutes and gotten the reward.

Anet said they will post information on it this week, has anyone received a email or anything news on it?

where can i find the latest new on nerfs, changes, and stuff like that about guild wars 2?

others log on for 5min, get more than i earned since release, i love Anet…

imo, Anet has put more effort in putting in unnecessary details rather than just simple mechanics that will improve the game.

so because someone dc’ed, they couldn’t get back. we 4man’ed the whole thing cuz we were halfway through. at the last part where the seal was, we tried at least 5 times, it was a total of 2-3 hours just for the last seal, it was impossible to do it without a 5th person. please fix the bug. if this was intended for dc’ed players not to be able to get back into the instance, well done Anet. i am officially not disappointed with you.

the npc is bugged, cannot kill him. will the quest continue on tmrw?

sigh, i wasted my time too

same here, like wtf. and i dont even know wat people got…

i been experiencing some bad internet today,b ut it didn’t disconnect me during the event. at the very last part of the event i was disconnected. when i was disconnected, i was optimistic about re logging before the vent finished cuz progress is slow, but i missed it, WTF? i didnt get anything after spending 45minutes killing the karkas…

Anet need to award those who participated after they log back on, seriously, this just adds to my bad day.

i keep being disconnected from guild wars 2 when clearly i have a healthy connection to my wifi.

it happened about 5 times in the last 2 hours.

contact via email?

thank you, i was relieved to know its a bug and not intended…
