Not enough to even begin coming to conclusions about the drops. The chance to drop unique/sets are so low, even for act bosses, that adding 500% mf and going from 1 to 8 players will not bump the *actual* % to drop very much. That's why mf works reasonably well in the cow level -- each cow has a horrible chance to drop something good, but there are so damned many of them, *in the long run* you get good drops.
Wish I could say I'd done 30 000 runs to test this out, but at this point, I haven't. But don't go making any conclusions or even getting suspicious based on 3 runs.
