Guys just wondering how many skill points do you need to invest in Magic Finder skill to make a real difference in getting the impossible Legendary items? I don't mind grinding a little but really having to kill the same freaking creature 1000 times to get a possible drop is beyond stupid.

Define "make a real difference".
There is a thread on the forum that describes magic finder.

I have never put more than 2 points in MF. My longest grind was getting my first Ring of Lesser Shadow, had to kill around 5k masters.

Truly, Legendary and Extraordinary items are a sideshow. I would never waste skill points on MF until I've completed all the content and the primary skill set for my build. The (long lost) hero in my sig is the only time I've bothered with a single point.

Can someone share details on this closed request regarding changes to magic finder skill -
https://github.com/AndorsTrailRelease/a ... /issues/29 ?
What's the change after the fix in terms of calculations per skill points?

It was fixed. That's clear from the github posts. Zero interest in poking around in the code to look at the details of the fix, because that's irrelevant. It would matter only to someone that can code in Java, and since it's an open source game any such person could look it up for themselves.

so it better to up MF to 2lvl (double drop chance) and just forget about this perk for good?

It's up to you. Personally, I would never put a single skill point into this. But I am not interested in collecting the legendary items.

I put 8 points in MF, cause I love grinding legendary/extraordinaty items.
The difference is huge, particularly with extraordinary items, because 8 MF means your chances are multiplied by 5 (1 + 8×0,5)
Concerning legendary, I had to grind twice for YN because I changed my phone and stupidly lost a save, and the first time I got it around 2000 kills, and with 2565 kills the 2nd time

It's helpful indeed. I have 3 in MF. It took about 4000 kills to get YN.
