MF Hammerdin: Gear suggestions ?

For quite some time I haven't used my lvl 87 Hammerdin.

I recently decided to re-equip him from PvM to an MF char. Here's my current set up:

Shako
Heart of the Oak
Enigma
Herald
Waterwalks
Maras
Frost*2
TOs gloves

My question is: What items can I swap for MF gear? I would hate to loose a lot of killing speed and sacrificing too much res. wouldn't be cool either.

I plan on using him on pit runs, meph, dia, baal.

Does anyone have experience with MF hammerdins? I would like to hear your suggestions. Also: My inventory is farely empty so slapping on some 7 mf charms would not be a problem.

Cheers :drink:

Here is my guys setup:

HOTO
ENIGMA
HOZ
CHANCIES
ARACHNID MESH
2X NAGEL RINGS
TRAVS
uber sexy +2 pal skill / mf / res rare ammy (gogo gambling!)

g

p.s.
hammerdins kill so damned quickly, it's hard to not kill fast. unless you play blindfolded

I had something similar in mind. Do you wear a shako (dont see a helm listed there...)? What does your mf add up to? (approximately...)

well this is my paladin - (hammerdin)

lvl 87 -

shako
hoz
wiz
enigma
+2 offesive - 26 % mf / res(ammy)
2 * 10% fcr rings
war tarvs 48%
chance 40%

mf = around 190%
-- all i do is meph kill him in a couple of secounds -- awsome speed -- i've found just doing one boss over and over again is better then walking around doing pit etc ...... (the quiker the turnover the better the bussiness)
-- -- wiz for max res --- ( hc-l)

Belt: Upgraded Goldwrap. 30% MF
Ring 1: 30% MF Nagelring
Ring 2: 29% MF Nagelring
Gloves: 40% Chanceguards
Charms. Apart from +resist and +life charms I have..

Hmm, you may want to check out this thread:

Btw if you mf solo you could fill up your entire inv with mf charms, except 1 2*2 space, that 2*2 space should contain a horadric cube, that way you can get the most out of your inv.
Your belt should have 1 row of super mana pots, 2 of super healing pots and 1 of town portals, that is all you could ever need while mfinding.... i would venture and say that at least for me Baal isn´t worth it, even with super drop´s all the time (just get a champion character to kill him in a game made by a patriarch/matriarch) he just seems to drop crap :S...


Edit 2*2 instead of 4*4 messed the size of the horadric cube...

I never came up with that idea of using the cube in the inventory...considering I get enough 7mf charms, I'll give it a shot. Cheers !

well I got 400+ mf now on lvl ** and I wear:

shako(ptaz)
skullder ire(ptaz)<-- Will be switch once I trade my tal ammy for tal armor
36 chancie
43 wt
uped gold wrap
24 and 25 mf ring
35 mf ammy
hoto
hoz

and I also carry some of those sm mf sc in my inventory as well. I had found alot of good stuff using this set. And I personally dont think you need alot faster cast item on while you mf. a Hoto or a wizard will give enought faster alone.
