Pindleskin didn’t seem to drop much for me pre and post patch and I nuked him quite often at 300 plus mf One thing buddy you made mention of 4 socket helmet :) lol where can I get those at
I really like that you grabbed socket bases & showed them in the video. A lot of people have no idea what's good to pick up, especially with white items that need the cube recipe/Larzuk.
Exactly. I’ve been getting into d2r and having never played Diablo 2 before this the entire community is so confusing to me because of all the abbreviated words people use for everything in the game and also stuff like knowing what is a good enough base to use for something. This community has to be one of the most knowledgeable about their game out there it’s really impressive sometimes
Had someone pick up and drop a plain ethereal thresher in a chaos run the other day. That alone could trade for an oculus easy, but I grabbed it and use socket recipe and got 4 sockets, then traded it for a stormshield + windforce + oculus + vipermagi
Eh. Ive probably spent more time than 1000 pindles would take. 3-4 min cs runs. Have found one mal, one ohm. In total. Both on the same run, did a random pit and found shako, another random countess and dropped ist. You always find the good stuff randomly. 😂
Exactly why I dont waste time on pindle anymore. My 1000 runs had a 5-5 light facet, tal arm, and 2/20/mf jav gloves and it still felt like a waste of time. If you spent that time running chaos it's pretty much guaranteed you would have had way better/more drops
@@AZ-vp7xi so if my life would be better from not playing this game then I'm guessing your life would be better from not watching people play this game
I totally beat your drops! I ran Pindle 125 times and my best items were: 2% MF GC 2 socket Wyrmhide (blue) 3% Lite Resist SC El Rune (I wet myself in excitement!) 2 socket long sword w/ 5% ED -and- BY FAR MY BEST ITEM: a Lum
you shouldnt waste your time with pindle lol, you probably would have made off with 2x jah and 2x ber runes in pits a long with hella nice base items that would sell for HRs
@@kyles8524 I did about 300 pot runs, best I found was a Tal mask. I may be out of rng. It's not about minmaxing the game for me. 1000 pindle runs was a project and I quite enjoyed it
It’s probably been said already but you can use telekenesis on the red portal. If you have 30 or 40 FRW boots it’s super quick. Having said that, doing Pin runs as a FOHdin is a solid idea
An advantage of charge over teleport is that the merc will fall behind which reduces merc deaths and a fohdin doesn't really need protection... a least not mine who has max blocking which makes things much more convenient in the CS, in particular when facing Diablo in melee range, so he will attack the fohdin and not the merc. However, sometimes the merc gets confused while I'm charging, running into the wrong direction to catch up. For tele-stomping and merc repositioning, you need teleport, of course.
seems like the pits would be a better option, at least once you aren't totally budget. you'll get there quickly with vigor/charge, it's easy to find, and you won't have immunity issues
I haven't bothered to track exact numbers, but I did just short of 200 pindles the other night. I add in a very quick glance over Anya's items to the route, so all told I have one good pair of steelrend, almost perfect wolfhowl, a couple item bases I sold for runes, and from anya I got bowa gloves and one good ring. I don't think thats terrible for the 3-4 hours invested, but it was less fun than clearing chaos.
I've run him 800 times on a mf frenzy/hork Barb with 400mf and ain't found shit. Literally. Only notable thing was two eth conquest swords with sockets
Had i invested in a 1000 runs of pindle kills in act 5 i could of have spent that time studying and getting certifications just want to mention that time is precious that all.
I loved running Pindle back in the day when I used to play a lot of hardcore. I found BK set back when it was actually decent. A found a windforce as well. It does take a lot of time and there are a lot of crappy drops though.
Hey do you plan on doing any videos on the bot farms destroying the economy? The only way to get the problem solved is to bring it to the light and talk about it publicly.
On drop calculator it shows that Pindle has highest chance of droppign Griffons Eye that I need badly (actually highest chance is Baal, but I dont count him since 1 Baal run is like 10 Pindle Runs). I tried like 100 runs and my best find was Aldur boots... :(
did pindle from level 86 to 92 on a casual pace with fohdin complete Imk set andy set and 3/4 assasin set 2/4 paladin set and the rest can't remember. is pretty fun while watching tv or youtube and killing pindle for drops lol....
Never had much luck with Pindle enough to do hundreds of runs but I’ve gotten 1-2 decent set or uniques off him since I’ve been playing so I know he can occasionally drop GG stuff. I play solo atm on console but I tried out ladder it’s just so empty feeling on switch without chat it just feels like a harder solo. It’s nice to have a fresh start but I wouldn’t do ladder again without playing on PC
If I'm playing through and someone else does lam essems tomb the ruined temple and takes the book so my quest is completed, will I have got the skill point from it?
Ahh, the ways one can min-max in this game! I'd never thought about speeding up these runs with Vigor! Great insights! Even a veteran like me learned something!

Lo rune
@@unixtreme only lol . That's a great drop

I like that you show the disappointing drops too! Just so everybody knows it takes time to get good stuff.
Unless you run a bot, which D2R is infested with.
I see enough disappointing drops on my own runs. Let's see the good stuff!
The way you were teasing those Lacquered Plates, I thought you might drop a Tal's Armor at the end. GG Dude! Can I have your Headstriker!? :D
I laughed when I read your name lmao 😂
I think I'm reserving it for a trav barb merc cooley ;)
@@Dbrunski125 damn! That was my plan... :P
I wish they would make some of the unusable sets super dope. Bul-Katho's should be a super cool dual 2h-set.
I made it in the video! I (vivan lordstar) was in some chaos runs with you and saw it in the background... feeling kinda famous! love your videos!

My fondest memory as a kid was a Grand Father sword drop doing pindle runs.
Lol nice. It was so rare back in the day

*has a heart attack* how on earth do you get so lucky? :(
Thanks for posting this. Much more realistic answer
Pindle runs are so tough, that's why I like to do Meph and Pindle in each run just so the Pindle fatigue doesn't frustrate me.....
I add Eldritch just for spicing up things a little bit :)
drop pindle from that rotation
@@zanido9073 Pindle is OK, if you have a char that can kill him in a few seconds, you won't loose much time.
@@MidnightGeek99 why lose any time? You lose at least 15 seconds in load screens alone
I ran Andy all day yesterday and hit the mobs on the way down, dropped a ohm and a eth v gaze and a hoz
I finished 1000 pindle runs yesterday. I found Tals Armor and Andy's Visage along with an eth cryptic Axe.
About 260 mf on a very basic FoHdin
Pindleskin is pointless for items, its much better for level =)
It was for items 15 years ago.
you shouldnt waste your time with pindle lol, you probably would have made off with 2x jah and 2x ber runes in pits a long with hella nice base items that would sell for HRs
@@kyles8524 I did about 300 pot runs, best I found was a Tal mask. I may be out of rng.
It's not about minmaxing the game for me. 1000 pindle runs was a project and I quite enjoyed it
Love it, back to the DB loot runs!
another problem I have with teleport is that sometimes I misclick and Tele in the middle of all pinddle's minions and get 1 shot
i only tele to the roomentrance because of that haha, happened too often
It’s probably been said already but you can use telekenesis on the red portal. If you have 30 or 40 FRW boots it’s super quick. Having said that, doing Pin runs as a FOHdin is a solid idea
I also like using the all res aura on Fohdin and mostly use MF gear for pits.
"Pound pindle with the fist of heavens..." i see what ya did there!🤣
Ur drops are actually good.
good ol pindle runs. I shit you not, my first pindle run on ladder reset, tal armor!!! Immediately sold it ofc for profit lol.
I’m that guy that started running Pindle on ladder as soon as I unlocked him and on the 8th run dropped a Griffin’s. RNG doing RNG things.
An advantage of charge over teleport is that the merc will fall behind which reduces merc deaths and a fohdin doesn't really need protection... a least not mine who has max blocking which makes things much more convenient in the CS, in particular when facing Diablo in melee range, so he will attack the fohdin and not the merc.

that 10fcr 86mana 25lr 14mf ring is really good, solid 4 point ring for magic finders
seems like the pits would be a better option, at least once you aren't totally budget. you'll get there quickly with vigor/charge, it's easy to find, and you won't have immunity issues
@Canberk for sure. I can't quite do efficient chaos with my trapsin yet, but pits is relatively fast even without enigma
I haven't bothered to track exact numbers, but I did just short of 200 pindles the other night. I add in a very quick glance over Anya's items to the route, so all told I have one good pair of steelrend, almost perfect wolfhowl, a couple item bases I sold for runes, and from anya I got bowa gloves and one good ring.

Working on a solo self found hardcore fohdin grail. Is pindle the ideal place to start picking up gear before heading to chaos? Maybe the pits?
Rough drops mate
still go with sorc.. you can run just in site of the portal and telek in
I've run him 800 times on a mf frenzy/hork Barb with 400mf and ain't found shit. Literally. Only notable thing was two eth conquest swords with sockets
Bruh please you gotta tell me where you got that 4os helm!? Jk we know what you mean. Love the vids man. Diablo forever
That eth headstriker made it worth it
Had i invested in a 1000 runs of pindle kills in act 5 i could of have spent that time studying and getting certifications just want to mention that time is precious that all.
u know this guy is a d2 streamer right
Found a soj 14 run in ! then tal 3 armor / belt / helm in the next 40 runs
Seems like a lot of people don’t know that you can use telekinesis on the portal trough the building pretty much
Found a shako and a mal and 2 Andy's helms yesterday! One Andy's from pindle!
Can you do a video on how the heck we are supposed to use the kick assasin after nurf?...
Db!!! back at it!
I loved running Pindle back in the day when I used to play a lot of hardcore. I found BK set back when it was actually decent. A found a windforce as well. It does take a lot of time and there are a lot of crappy drops though.
u forgot a key factor. u can telekenisis the portal now
4:10 since its guaranteed 4 OS its also quite easy to get one with ED. someone who has 2 bers won't use this base imo :p
as a person that dont know much about d2r items but remembering selling a eth headstriker just pisses me off now oO xD

nice video! btw, does the bug with dual weapon on a5 merc still work?? How to see if it works?? Please need response :D
Did you clear Hell as a FoH pally or did you use hammers and switch after?
did pindle from level 86 to 92 on a casual pace with fohdin complete Imk set andy set and 3/4 assasin set 2/4 paladin set and the rest can't remember. is pretty fun while watching tv or youtube and killing pindle for drops lol....
I found a griffons my first 6 pindle runs ever and now can't find anything lol
I need that Cerberus bite so bad
Did you occur any deaths during this 1k Pindle runs? I play in HC and after 10 runs I almost RIP'd a few times.
What was the max damage on the head striker? We couldn't see it due to the icon in the top right corner. Would really like to know please
nice high rune drop ! GG
Help a brother out? Does ED equipment and weapons boost holy bolt damage? Any way to boost besides synergies?
imagine what happens when Dbrunski discovers pokie machines 😅
Pindle has always been so iffy for me
You could use the Matriarchal Bow to make a Mist, I believe.
Why not eldrich abd shanks in the same run?
I got an Ohm doing ladder. Currently lvl 93 pala, how is your grind. Also, offering Cham rune for Vex lol
How long did the 1000 runs take approximately?
Sweet the human bot project is back !!
Is lader has better loot ?
WDYM reset on cold immune? Just zap him with static a couple of times and let the merc do the job.
By the Light! What is this place?
Your charm organization freaks me out, lol
he left it that you never need potions, run with vigor swap to redemption redeem the corpses in portal
Why use act 1 mercenary with insight? why not act 2?

I have a level 80 sorceress on Xbox if you ever want to farm together
I felt the same way then I joined a d2r guild and everything changed. I think most of us play on Switch and we use discord to chat.
Awesome, can someone tell me what is that counter that shows # of runs and time, please?
this is why i love your content and videos
Enjoying the game and have fun with stuffs rather than pushing level 99 like a clown behind the keyboard
I got tal rasha armor, highlord amulet, mal, ist, dracu, ik armor ik maul from pindle in less than 500 runs
im so glad fohdin is viable for stuff now
If I'm playing through and someone else does lam essems tomb the ruined temple and takes the book so my quest is completed, will I have got the skill point from it?
By the light, what is this place?
Ahh, the ways one can min-max in this game! I'd never thought about speeding up these runs with Vigor! Great insights! Even a veteran like me learned something!
a veteran that doesnt know vigor makes you run faster? lmao
@@Kotkau Not quite what he meant but ok.
My question is, didn't they make it so you can make games that fast? One of the reasons I stop playing
I see what you did there
@@Suuuub_ yep that's not quite what I meant, thank you 😁
you can use TK to enter the portal though;
Those poor lacquered plate troll drops 😢
How can you still play the game with audio on 😃
By the light what is this place?
This vid is perfect example why I dont waste time on pindle ;)
Where do you get that run counter?
I got a 2/2 47% 11 12 deaths web drop today nearly perfect!
Highlightski!
is it pegi5 kidcore paper league core?
If you really want to suffer. Do this on console! Takes roughly ten million years
Not on ps 5
How the heck did you make time to do this while doing the ladder race
I guess 1000 runs is a safe threshold from being banned.
Cold immunes no longer exist for the Sorceress. :)
lets jump in!
With in an 50 runs I dropped 2 tal armor, shaco, occy, high lords and mal
By the light, what is this place?!
Managed to get a Ber run from this sucker. Lucky me
I got an eth dweb today followed by a metalgrid lol p1 bnet ..pindle is worth it..some days
”Foden”? What does it mean?
By the light what is this place
Hey man try to do 100 or more runs in Cold Plains (hell) if you have time.
fohdin build?
The only advantage of running pindle back in the day was that it could be botted easily
2:27 "4 perfect topaz helmet"?
I personally run a 6 perfect topaz helmet. :P
is in d2r still the restict timer if you start/close/start games if you run only pindel ?
No they changed that so you can just do them as quick as you like
I allways wandered how can someone do a 1000 runs in one day??? I get tired after 30 runs.
Can spears be used as a base for insight? I thought that was a pd2 feature
No but bows can now
How to get run counter ?
