Great video! Just to expand on this, for those who wonder how it works... Pindle has monster level 86 and has assigned the highest treasure class TC87, meaning he can drop "all" the items up to item level 86. The only items he can't drop are those with ilvl 87, and those are only three: Tyrael's Might, Arachnid's Mesh, Azurewrath. That being said this only applies to uniques and set items. Magic and rare items from Pindle will have quality level 86 which is not enough to get all the possible rolls as the highest qlvl bracket is 91+.
I have been fortunate enough recently to drop both Azurewrath and Arachnid from Terrorized Andariel so future grail runs will be pindle and the pits depending on which one I am burnt out on at the time. Great video Phil!
A few years back, I did a thousand or so runs, looking for Tal's Guardianship and Griffon's. I took a break to run some keys. I switched to players 1 and put on different gear because, well, Nihlathak is dangerous. On the second or third run, I killed Pindy because he was in my way. What did he drop? Tal's Guardianship. Yeah! I'm playing again, and on an early Nihlathak run, he didn't drop a key, but he dropped Arachnid's Mesh. My Hammerdin, Sorc., and both Necromancers thank you, Nihlathak.
I am so close to completing Trang-Oul's set (missing the gloves). Only this year did I start farming the right areas (i.e. Hell Andy & Mephisto) before ever getting those items. I used to farm Shenk & Eldritch (D'oh!)
When not farmin TZ on single player, i like to do a whole round of locations instead of just farming on place. Starting with Pindle, CS, LK, Meph, AS, Andi and finishing of with countess. Blizz Sorc with cold sundere, no anni, no torch, semi budget gear (+7 all skills). Keeps things from getting to boring. Pindle is such a fast and easy kill!
This makes me think I should go back to nm pindle and see if he is still giving noticeable xp. Im lvl 79. If so I may do that to gain an easy level. And it would fit something you have said. Try to do more than one thing at a time. Would gain a level maybe, would have drop chance, and would farm gold. And what does gold do? Other than revive my merc and buy town portals and such what it does is give additional drop chances at the gambling vendor. So that would be doing more than one thing at once.
I didn’t know that super uniques always have to same amount of loot, uneffected by player count. That’s why you always watch sweet phil videos! You may learn something new even tho the video title says „you already know what he’s going to say“
With really powerful characters (single tree sorcs, LF zon, trapsin comes to mind) I like to run him on /players8 and just skip him when immune. Gives pretty good exp up until lvl 90, and I've even gone to 96 with a trapsin in LOD. Stupid fast run/walk with harmony switch, 1.07 M'Avina belt and burst of speed. This was in 1.11 or 1.12 I believe, but is still very much doable.
Just started my single player journey few days ago finally got sorc to hell and farming.... literally already have mesh and azure so might go there for abit tonight never did much pindle on battlenet...maybe itll help me get past ancients lmao
And I have farmed Pindle a couple of thousands of times on p3, p5 and p7 hoping to get better loot... :D maybe the chance for runes were still bigger. got a windforce tho once that was crazy. But it's nothing now compared to TZ Andy... Got Jah and Mang Songs within an hour...
Now I have to say I didn't have an account closed for pindle Botting way back in 09 days.. I had to work 10 hour days. It was a nice week to come home and collect the loot .. that was closed. Lol. Sigh. Pindlebot. Good ol' 09 tricks.
Omg that was the best come home and you got runes , high items just waiting for you :) . I bought 2 cds and would transfer my stuff over to my other account I didn’t bot on
Pindle was fun to farm until the fucking loading times went from milliseconds to many many MANY seconds between games with the revamped interface and graphics.
I'm not sold on pindle I've personally done 500 to 1000 runs on him over time and I have never picked up one item from him.... no runes above lum either
@@brdynali I mean it’s a really old nerf , I used to run pindlebot back in the day and would wake up in the morning with runes and undies galore in my stash then they nerfed him via an old post
idk dude i play 1 month and do over 300 travi runs and i dont find not one rune or vex rune or some stuff with barb and hoork spell and 100 mf idk d2r is boring and is dossent drop anything
pindle sucks for farming. sure he has super high monster level for potential to drop some great stuff. FACT IS HE NEVER DOES. farmed pindle since orginal d2 days and not once ever seen a good decent usable drop from him, well over 500,000 in kills for sure, maybe more in 20 years of play, not once gotten anything worthwhile off pindle. sure a few may have gotten the super RNG LUCK of something. but as a farm spot to get loot, he is truely really bad over all.
@@justindemars5487 it's garbage from your perspective, and still, no need to start insulting other games, just because you dont like it. PS: D2R is a dead game dude, you won't get any new updates or anything. If you like to play a dead game that came out 25 years ago, go for it lol
@@RandallPinkXL it's just a suggestion, he can of course do whatever the fuck he wants. But if you have more than 2 brain cells in your head, you can see that not expanding your horrizon (in this case adopting new games) will not grant you a channel growth or get you any kind of benefits. In time you will no longer see him streaming at all. It's simple math
But Terrorized Pindle can drop Arach? I remember I dropped once, i might be wrong tho 😂 Ps. I just dropped the Mang Song’s recently, one more grail list crossed out ❤️

nabbed a griffon's eye from pindle some time ago, it was fantastic
Everyone gangsta until he drops a 36 durability spiderweb sash.
LoL! I hate that durability “clue”!

I can definitely confirm that Pindle is an amazing spot to farm. Great vid Phil! 💪
Ive had some of my best drops from pindle over the last seasons, Diadem, couple of sur runes, Tal armors and so much more!
But if Pindle is terrorized, then he can drop you a Tyrael's Might! I got one from him last ladder.
Thnx Mr. Phil keep up the good work, Happy New Year to you & yours !!!
I got windforce from Mephisto yesterday, albeit terrorized.
I got jack while he was Terrorized soon as he wasn't I did 1 more bam tals chest on a ghoul
I also got wf from terrorized mephisto I was just farming essences and bam
Clarification on an old favourite. Phil the slayer

Thanks for that super unique monster info. I will level 1 and amp my magic find to get the most of Pindle.
Pindle and Nilahack both blow when it comes to drops for me and always have. But I am not the pro and I defer to Phil’s expertise.
Thanks for the goods Phil 🎉 playing a wind druid and farming is tough to figure out a rotation that’s wuick

You found shield, belt before gloves? Damn.
What do you think is better for farming, Terrorized Pit or Terrorized Pindleskin?
Last season pindle dropped me Tals armor on my second run
Love the Lidless on switch!
Found my 2nd Jah this season off a solo Pindle run! Either him or one of his minions

who made the items drop calculator?
I had no idea Pindle had such high level drop chances! Time to adorn my farming hat!
Pindle is great. He's known to drop a unique diadem every so often. At least he did it for me.
Cant wait until the grail is done. Hopefully phill starts focusing on gg rare yellow items.

Pindle is to me, what trav is to you
Does anyone remember JHJ pindle bot from back in the day?
Yep I used to run it before work and come home to fat loot and run it at bedtime and wake up to fat loot
Now I have to say I didn't have an account closed for pindle Botting way back in 09 days.. I had to work 10 hour days. It was a nice week to come home and collect the loot .. that was closed. Lol. Sigh. Pindlebot. Good ol' 09 tricks.

Sometimes people are like yes but Baal has better odds of dropping X item, yes but Baal takes 3 minutes to get to, Pindleskin takes 5 seconds.
Just do chaos tz and anything can drop at a higher rate.
Good if you enjoy farming him. I prefer running in dungeons to get my loot.
Hmm I did 13-14h only Pindle and the best drop was a Pul Rune, Idk maan maybe I am unlucky
soogood!
important to note you can get dweb from terrorized andy
Pindle was fun to farm until the fucking loading times went from milliseconds to many many MANY seconds between games with the revamped interface and graphics.
I got big bro love for ya Phil, but I have gotten NOTHING from Pindel....EVER.
I'm not sold on pindle I've personally done 500 to 1000 runs on him over time and I have never picked up one item from him.... no runes above lum either
He can drop stuff they just nerfed his chances to drop stuff because of the old pindlebot that used to be a thing
@@mikeblenheim117 u got some source for that ?
@@brdynali I mean it’s a really old nerf , I used to run pindlebot back in the day and would wake up in the morning with runes and undies galore in my stash then they nerfed him via an old post
I still dont understand why people play singleplayer and not online
I’m number 2 because I”m the shit
If you want griffon from pundle just 2800 runs 😢😮
I've killed Pindle hundreds of times and never gotten anything good T_T
First view baby!
o love him
Nope. Pindle never gave me shit. Lol. One of these days. I do farm him sometimes.
I've never gotten anything good from Pindle.
phil, you'll have hair before i find anything good from pindle :/
I hate it , never find anything from him
Same. Rng is rng though I guess
Right literally never. Best item was loh I think
Well we all know streamers get an extra hidden 1000 mf 🤣
I liked and commented for the sole reason that you did die
idk dude i play 1 month and do over 300 travi runs and i dont find not one rune or vex rune or some stuff with barb and hoork spell and 100 mf idk d2r is boring and is dossent drop anything
I have a hork barb and it’s so rare to get a rune out of a 1000 runs

Mind-numbing af tho if that's all ur running
Pindlebot has entered the chat…
Phil you need to expand your horrizon beyond D2R. Just saying.
New D4 season incoming soon and maybe some POE aswell could help.
Diablo 4 is garbage.
Lol d4 :)
Or he could, and stay with me here, do whatever the fuck he wants.

Generally speaking yes... Assuming high enough level of TZ anything can drop from any monster.
Boring lol 😂😂
