I'm curious as to what the "best" or the "standard" MF group will consist of. [I'm very positive that there will be the best method of killing a certain boss. just like how Hammerdin was the "standard" in d2]
4 Wizards? 4 Barbarians? or a mix between the 5 characters?
If I were to form a group to MF, I'll go for a 4 wizard group.
If we come across a massive number of monsters, one of us could have freezing chain lighting and the other stun chain lighting and maybe also extra damage just to kill faster.
And using teleportation to get to the boss faster, although theres a 8 sec cool down. (Still faster than other chars)
The massive final boss will stand no chance as meteors will shatter their bones into pieces.
My group would consist of me(a barb) and 2 Axes of doom.
On a more serious note, I personally didn't like that every1 played a sorc for mf(originally) then played a Hammer. Id like them to make every class viable. Other thing is would you even want to mf in groups? I suppose it depends what your doing and how early after release your referring too.
Wizard's TP won't matter any more since every class now has a mobility skill.
It all comes down to the one build that kills the quickest. However, They have also said that farming bosses will no longer be the best way to farm gear. So, there is really no telling what class will be the best because we do not know what the best way to farm is now.

Huh? I'm pretty sure killing hell bosses is going to be the best way to find lewt.
No matter what blizzard has planned out, it will require some sort of monster killing.
It makes logical sense to kill bosses, which are the strongest monster in the game..... is it not ?
Its weird that blizzard would say someting like that, hope its not true
Scyber's right. Wilson basically says they don't want players to feel like they need to kill bosses "80,000 time over until their eyes bleed" to get loot. Players should get loot by doing more fun and engaging things:
My 'mf' character will be the one that I enjoy playing the most and can play the longest without getting bored with. No point if, say, the wizard is the best item grinder when I get bored/annoyed of playing him/her easily. Rather play a class I enjoy playing to find items for days on end instead.
I highly doubt that Act Bosses will drop all that great stuff. Maybe the first drop of theirs will be better. Getting gear will be by just playing the game and killing monsters to either get the item you are looking for or getting the needed resources to get the item you want.
If you want to take on the Act Bosses all the time you can but it is likely the monsters that you face before will have the better chance to get what you want.

On Strike and supporting Fallout 4 Mod Makers
Some fallout 4 mod makers have had their mods stolen and uploaded and downloaded on Bethesda's site for the Xbox One.
We really don't know, but they have said that their goal is to make the endgame less mindless and grindy than in D2.
This. We don't know nearly enough to give a real educated guess on what will be the best class/build, or the best way to farm in general. As said by Scyber, and Jackzor the D3 team has stated that they don't want you to be forced to kill a boss 1000 times to get the best loot, or experience for that matter. Obviously Hell will be the place to be to get the best look, but the manner in which we get it will likely be through random events like mini bosses which may only appear 1 out of 2,000 passes through a swamp. Or high level mobs. I hated farming Baal, Pindleskin, Mephisto over and over and over... It was in no one, what so ever, even close to a pleasant experience and I hope they have found a better way to have players venture for loot.

Dont count out the WD with spirt walk and exploding zombie dogs that can tank if necessary
I bet the WD is going to end up being a very powerful class. As of the last pvp news/video the WD was op with it's sacrifice dog/fire bomb combo. I'm a Barb guy myself, but the WD might be my second class.

What does your group consist?

Thanks Caniroth for the awesome sig!
