The PoE is for Spork

I don't totally agree with you. Because I notice a lot of MF'ers with EK and try with power siphon etc.

But yeah most people do MF Spork because of the reason it probs have the highest chance of getting the last hits which is needed in MF. :)

*raises hand*

i have a sporker in hc not mf just a sporker i cant play him after 4-6h sunday game session when i try to sleep i have after images so anoying

I have a 81 MF Marauder with about 650 eMF (iq 113, ir 205) but got bored playing him very fast. Never tried Sporker but I assume it would be twice boring as this one.

Looking on yellow/gold items rain is a fantastic feeling.
But it ends fast after you identify the loot.

"Raise Hand"

No (MF) Sporker but planning to build 1 after full release in October when a new league comes (if there will be a new league coming).


Not for the MF but looks like a fun build to run together with a friend (who has a different build) as we have decided to play only these characters together when we are both online.



P.S. I will never feel ashamed/angry/bitter/"whatever negative" in any Game if I don't run a cookiecutter build.

Not having a mf dedicated char and having like 20 exa in stash should be a criteria. When you play a caster not using a supportive totem is generally a bad choice for everything but dischargers. The totem can cast spark, arc, ice spear, fireball, whatever and also takes the agro away. IMO your secondary skill should always be a totem. Ranting again - there is no melee totem that does this.

I dont get this hatred towards the build.

While I dont have a dual totem character yet, I definitely want to make one because it seems like great fun to me.

Theres obviously an agenda going around that just because a build stack MF, therefore it cant be fun. You know that people can build a sporker just because they enjoy the build regardless of magic find right? And that people that build for magic find actually enjoy and have plenty of fun farming for loot.

Just because a build isnt fun for you doesnt mean the entire player base feels exactly the same way. If we want to generalize based on personal opinions, then the most boring unfun way to play PoE is by having to take life and / or ES nodes. I therefore demand that health and energy shield be removed from the game because no one finds them fun.

in my case, there is no hatred.
my only problem with the build itself - and I've wrote this several times - is I think it's about as fun to play, as watching paint dry.

all my true hatred, is (and always was) directed towards the terrible drop and crafting systems, which will sadly follow the game into release and beyond.
MF Spork - or anything MF for that matter - being so popular, is only a symptom of the real problem.

people who play such tons-of-magic-find "easy" builds, are people who got tired of getting mercilessly raped by an out-of-control RNG.

Then what exactly is your point in constantly whining over a build you dont like it? Dont play it, ignore it, and stop paying so much attention to how anyone else chooses to play the game. If you didnt have any hatred towards the build, then you wouldnt be bothered by it at all. If you simply found it that boring, then you wouldnt have any interest in constantly discussing it.

The drop rate and crafting system is exactly how this genre of RPG works, if you dont like it, then this isnt exactly the right game for you.

you are wrong. Spork is not the only viable way of doing magic find.
You can also do low life physical wander with shav for amazing MF + better damage :P
There are also other non-shav builds that can manage good MF stats without low life or totems
