Unless you are playing in singleplayer or have a lot of time on your end, trying to get a full mf wormhole takes a lot of time. And in the end, you might get a bad roll. Got two mf cycles in 15 runs. I just focus on my main stat

1) I wish Gold Find cycles would be removed
2) MF cycles are just that rare
3) Imagine how lovely it would be if you could combine 3-5x cycles of the same size and get a different one of that size (and have a small chance to get a size larger)

I've considered a ripstar ring for my Xbow nec since it has a low level req, but is there even some UMO's or Occult Effigies that would fit nicely for such a physical build (widowmaker)?

This. Also, Golden Cycle still exists?

It does. I forgot which, but I saw a Streamer with it in their inventory... that or I was seeing things.

Wormhole is not supposed to be a charm that you farm yourself, you are supposed to trade the ones you found for what you need (or simply buy for tg). And i think all cycles have the same drop chance (of the same size), you are just unlucky.

1. They don't have the same chance. I've farmed triune for a long time and gold find drop distinctively more often.
2. If no one is supposed to farm themselves, then from who do they buy the cycles? It takes days of constant farming to get a single grand cycle drop that could be a gold find one. You need 6-8 of these, depending on your level. How many months for the average player to get a satisfying one?

I think they either need to buff drop chance of large-grand cycles or make boss have like 50% chance to drop a grand cycle. That way, people would actually kill the boss for other than the first time. Also, get rid of gold find ones. They're absolutely dead drops. It feels bad to get one.

Yes

A Druid build was discussed a little bit here.
Witchblood is synergy to Spell Damage for sorc skills only so won't work on any oskill.
Druid is by far the best Char to use Absolute Zero with Access to Ravenheart and Symbiosis that buff Cold Spell Damage without buffing fire spell damage.
