Diablo II: Mephathon

The Mephathon is a new magic finding tournament extremely similar to the Pindlethon. The basic premise is that you must run Mephisto in Hell two thousand times. The person with the most interesting/rares drops wins. Along the way of course lots of good items will be found that will help out future characters. This is the main reason I joined, as I normally don't like magic finding, but if it is part of a competition then I'll do it.

This one was a bit rough as it fell right after the most recent Pindlethon. That's four thousand magic finding runs in a relatively short time span (for me). Obviously quite a few good items fell that give me some great ideas for future characters. Most notably is the M'avina's bow from this tournament and the helm and armor from the Pindlethon. Finishes the set for me so a Frost Maiden is in the works somewhere down the road.

Overall this Pindlethon was very productive, so here are the elite set/unique drops.
