My amazon is 99 and i do beleive in 1.10 MF has mroe to do with level then the MF gear itself. Also remember anything over 450% MF is very useless. MF is a higher % chance to find MAGIC ITEMS. Not rares, not unqiuws, just magical. Rares and unqiues simple drop a lil more often due to having magical antributes. SO the more MF you use, the more MAGICAL items you find.

Where do you get your information?
MF% affects the amount of Magical/Rare/Set/Unique items, just over 110%, Rares/Sets/Elites start receiving diminishing returns.
MF% affects the
quality of the drop (ie: Magical/Rare/Set/Unique), and Character Level affects the item-class (ie: Normal/Exceptional/Elite) of the drop. The higher level you are, the better chances of an Elite dropping.
Following that, your character's level is VITAL to MFing, as it increases the amount of elites that drop. More elites dropping = more chances for that elite to be unique/set/etc. Your character's level is quite important, but to completely disregard MF% is stupid. The only time you would want a high level character and 0% MF is if you're looking for Socketed/Superior items to trade off.
The 450% thing is a myth. There WAS a bug a long time ago (1.07 or 1.08) that going over a certain MF% would make it to where no sets/uniques dropped, but that was patched.
