?? on Diablo, Baal, Travincal runs

Players that run these multiple times per day. Are you mostly looking for runes and maybe an uber elite? Just wondering if I should gear up for the quickest kill to shorten the run time (I.E. lower MF {235ish} but increased cast rate or higher MF {355ish} but lower cast rate).

Travincal - high runes, facets (high runes are not affected by MF, but facets are)
Baal - essences and XP mostly, he rarely drops something good in my experience (although he CAN drop best items in game)
Diablo - same as Baal

I would get some MF for Trav and use a horker barb to squeeze out more from each run.
I think 200mf is plenty for Diablo and Baal, because it caps at 200 for uniques anyway (unless you want to farm set items, but really there are not that many worthwhile sets).

If you want to MF I think Mephisto gives better results (or Andi if you want to target farm SoJ). He can't drop some *best* items, but Mephi drops *good* items often enough to trade them for the *best* ones. I got most of my best items by trading up from cheaper ones, not by directly finding them.

If you are playing SP then it will be hard for you no matter what you decide, because you can't trade and it can take a looong time to find the items or runes you need on your own.

Mephisto for early farming.
Chaos (Diablo) is my home once my char is well geared enough.
Baal is only for XP to reach lvl 93 for crafting.

Trav and cow are also good for farming but it is too boring for me.

Keys and Uber is another story.

Reaching 200 MF is not hard without sacrificing your FCR/killing speed.
Above 200MF, the effect of MF is not significant so don't sacrificing your killing speed for more MF.

Increase unique by 2: 166 MF
Increase unique by 3: 1000 MF
Increase unique by 3.5 (max): 999999+ MF

If there is a cap to MF for uniques, it has to be 1000 MF.
It approachable for an horker, not really for others builds/classes...
