Yes Nm Andy has the highest % chance to drop sojs.
She is prone to dropping rings and in nm, Because of the item drop lvl, There are only a couple unique rings that she can drop one of them being soj =D.

I do best with @ 270-290 mf.  When I hit or go over 300 it seems like I don't do as well.

I've never been real big on repeatedly doing a specific boss for mfing for any length of time, but I have found nearly every item in the game, which is a lot, and found a lot of the same items more than once.  I have only found 3 soj, but I didn't play for most of the last 3 years.  Since 1.10, the drop rate for soj has been adjusted, I'm sure of it.  I found 1 soj in the 4 years preceding 1.10 when I was playing all the time, and 2 soj since then and I wasn't playing much at all.

The 1 I found pre-1.10 was in act 4 hell.  The 2 since 1.10 has came out were in act 1 nightmare.  Neither of the 2 were from Andariel.  1 was from some boss in the Jail, and the other was from the body at the Inner Cloister waypoint.  I don't remember exactly what magic find I had, but it wasn't much... less than 100.

I find just as much, if not more, by simply roaming around killing random bosses.. especially runes.  The main act bosses drop uniques more often, but they are usually uniques that you don't really care for.  I'd have to say that 85% of the godly elites that I have found were not from the act bosses.  If your experiences have been different, then keep doing whatever you are doing I suppose.  If you have not given an equal amount of time to "roaming" as you have to killing the act bosses, then you can not make any form of judgement with 100% certainty though.

I also believe that the killing power of your character makes a difference as well.  I've found more with my Bowazons than any other character I've ever made.  I think this is because a Bowazon has the ability to lay waste to hoards of mobs at once.  More kills = more chances for items.  I also usually hit all the chests and such that come into my view.  I've found a few of my godliest elites from chests, tombs, bodies, armor/weapon racks.. etc..

Just a few tips that have always served me well, but do whatever works for you.  It's all luck in the end. :hunter:

I have only found 2 this ladder, both from Pindle.  In 1.10 I found 5, 4 from hell Andy and 1 from hell Pindle.  None prior to that...

The rumor is that NM Andy and Normal Diablo have the highest%(although I could consult ATMA to verify) to drop a soj.

It is interesting to note that we remember where we found our sojs...  because they are so rare...

Unless of course you wrote it down and reviewed your notes...
