Where to mf with a blizz sorc?(and some more advices)

I am sorry and i know this is partially a repost but i didn't get the answers i wanted.

I play on bnet so all players x talk is from the number of players in the game

At the moment i have a lvl 82 sorc with maxxed blizz/glacial/ice blast/cold mastery and some points in ice bolt.I also have tele/static/shiver/warmth(no ES)

My equip is:
tal armor,amu,belt
shako (perfect topaz
rhyme shield(gonna chance it with spirit when i get anny or torch for str+)
ocy (no socket)
wts 36
chances 40
2*nagel (26/29)
no noticeable charms (some life/some mana/a 26 gheed)
Around 400-450mf and enough killing power to do all of the following.

I also have a defiance merc with gaze/shaft/unique ogre axe.

First of all i accidentally did my meph quest so my meph isn't bugged.
I also killed cow king accidentally

The usual places i go for are (in act order)

Andariel :I can kill quite easy with player one,but i can take it on with more players 8 also. She doesn't drop so good although i am sure i have her bugged.My question here: Is andy worth it?

Ancient tunnels: As far as i understood this is a lvl 85 area and bosses can drop any item in game.So my question here is if i should kill everything in it or just aim for the chest and leave?(i guess option number 1)

Arcane sanctuary: I can kill summoner and also open the chests without dying or having to much trouble.I have 2 question here:
1) I understood that the chests here can be 'special' or 'magic' chests.Am i wrong here or...? SO are they worth it or i should just aim for summoner and go to a new server afterwards?
2) Is arcane in general (key+chests) worth it? (keep in mind i can do it all in about 2-3 mins,most of it due to walking back to wp in city and teleing) Btw i didn't find one single key from summoner in 10-15 runs.Bad luck for the win.

Meph: i don't have him bugged so.....Worth still doing?

Pindleskin: I can easily kill him and he rarely spawns cold immune.My prob is that in about 50-100runes he only droped a 26 gheed and nothing else worth picking.In 1.09 amd 1.10 you would wait a lot until he droped something.IS this still true now?

Cows: I really loved this place.Because i loved it and because it droped good charms.To bad i was stupid...

Sry for this questions and i did read most of the guides here but they aren't that in depth...



I am also now looking to make a new char(skelimancer for wsk and baal).From my point of view my sorc is finished as soon as i can get an ani and a torch.What do you think?

Re: Where to mf with a blizz sorc?(and some more advices)

I think andy is worth running, she drops some pretty good items every so often.

I kill everything in the ancient tunnels, you never know who might drop something good. I've gotten several nice eth and/or socketable items just from the regular monsters in the AT.

I know there are "special" chests in the game but don't know if any are in the arcane sanctuary so I'll leave that for someone else to answer. As for the keys, if you want to collect them for uber runs or to trade then yes run the summoner, if not then it probably isn't worth the time he rarely drops anything worth having to make it worth mfing him.

As far as I'm concerned if I'm leveled to where I like and I have the gear I like to use and can do my mf runs well then my sorc is finished. But a torch and anni never hurts so if you can get them yourself or trade for them go for it. :thumbsup:
