What Is The Nephalem Valor Buff In Diablo 3?

It's no Diablo 3 Gold Secret that the Nephalem Valor Buff makes farming for gold and items much easier and more profitable.  Stacking your Nephalem Valor Buff to 5 stacks is highly recommended when farming for gold and items.  So what is Nephalem Valor (commonly seen as NV)?

Nephalem Valor

Only earned once character level 60.

Gain 1 stack of Nephalem Valor per Elite, Rare, or Champion mob pack killed.

Max stacks allowed is 5.

Each stacks provides +15% Magic Find & +15% Gold Find.

Can gain total +75% Magic Find & Gold Find with full 5 stacks of Nephalem Valor.

30 Min buff duration, but refreshed with new Rare, Elite, or Champion mob pack kill.

Leaving game or changing skills removes all Nephalem Valor.

Even a brand new level 60 Diablo 3 character with no good gold or magic item farming gear will see a huge benefit from the Nephalem Valor buff.  The buff to magic and gold find is additive, not multiplicative.  So while the Nephalem Valor buff will stack with the Fortune Shrine and other buffs, Magic Find on your gear, or extra Magic Find from your choice of gems for your helm, you simply add the 15-75% buff to your current magic find.

Preventing Accidental Loss Of Nephalem Valor Buffs

It is important to note that you will lose all buffs if you leave the game, but you also lose all Nephalem Valor if you change your skills around.  So if you need a specific skill set to beat your desired boss target, you must farm your stacks of Nephelam Valor in that same skill set up.

Some players have been complaining about accidentally moving skills around on the skill bar in elective mode with a misplaced mouse click, thus resulting in a loss of all stacks of the NV buff.  A simple fix to prevent this is to turn off Elective Mode once you have your chosen skill set up completed.  This prevents you from being able to accidentally move the skills around on your Diablo 3 character toolbar.
