It takes me like 5 mins to gather 3 million gold with gf zerk babo

How much "+Extra Gold" do you have? Can you list which locations you run for gold in each game? Lastly, single game or multiplayer game?

just dont make runeword in sup armor unless it is for merc.
the little defense gain isnt worth the hassle.

if you have gf barb ready 24/7 for repair golds then go for it.

I pick up blue and yellow objects in Act 3 Kurast (lower, bazaar, upper). I don't score 1 million in 5 minutes but I can usually get 500,000 in about 1-2 hours with out any +extra gold magic. Some rare armor can give 10,000 in gold. I have picked up necro heads and wands that pay out 10,000. Even chipped gems give something like 1000 t0 2000 gold and lately these have been falling like rain.

If you use ATMA you can gold find with a caster (my have very low repair costs) and use ATMA to transfer the gold to your melee type characters that have a higher maintenance cost.

The Ral solution is also a good idea unless you are doing something else with your runes.

Don't remember correctly, but it's something like 1500% extra gold, though I could get to like 2000 if I bothered. I do the killing myself because I don't trust merc's amoebic AI to do the job Build is a berserk babo with grief/rhyme. I do use a lot of warcries, though: level 10 warcry to make minions stand still and battle cry to smooth out the big 3 when they spawn with fana or xstrong mods. Merc uses insight, so that I can deal with mana burn and keep a good refil rate for warcrying. By the way, the big 3 can also get stunned from warcry, but the odds are like 5 or 10% per cry.

I get like 400-600 k per run and it doesn't matter if it's single player or multi player: the council goes down easily in both cases... lol. Ok, maybe 5 mins is an exaggeration, but it's certainly not longer than 10. I only run the hell council. Besides gold, you can get some pretty nice rares if you use a bit of mf (for instance lem lem alibabas on weap switch). Last ladder I got a mara 30 and a soj without playing much.
