Best HC Goldfinder?

[-Tempus-]

No you dont understand me, i mean goldfind as in +100% gold from monster gold find. Im not lookin to follow folks around in hell cows, sellin items.

:blink: like i said b4 any char can make for a good fun goldfind char. amz/sorc and necros do very well in cows since they can all kill without much in the way of items. but the best goldfind char is the barb with max find item skill. why is that? you kill a monster once for its drops then you use your find item skill to get a 2nd drop. kill once get 2 drops :D

OrpheusPrime:
even in hc a barb + might merc is very good. you dont need 75% block and you dont need godly elite items/charms (but they always help)

my normal mf/gf build is
max bo
max ww
max mastery
max itemfind
1 zerk
5 NR depends on items you may need more

what helps the most for this build is to have leech on your weapon. you could go with shael shael amn on your sword. my dream sword for goldfind is a GrandMasters Colossus Blade of quickness with Amn, Vex, 40%ed/-15%req.

for items that are easy to get
cube swords with chips. it didtn take me too long to get a +200%ed sword
greed jewels (put them in 2 six socket swords) and use them with FI or when your merc kills
goldskin is great on you and they put wealth on you merc. +30% greed charms drop all the time in normal. if you have dwarf stars use them and get your leech off a belt, amulet, helm and sword. as you get more items you can upgrade what you and your merc have.

most of the time i just let my merc solo the hell highcouncil while i keep my lem swords out but he has good items.

in hc what you can do for a very long time is run nm highcoucil and meph. a might merc can take them all out with no problem. i wouldnt be in any rush to run hell highcouncil in hc at low levs. also you can still get a ton of gold in act 1 hell. they are easy kills, many champs and good drops.
