For you gurus, just how bad is Pindle at dropping sets/uniques? I'm running him with my javazon, and I'm having terrible green/gold luck. After ~50 runs, I've yet to see a set or unique, and this with 370% MF on /p4. I happen to be looking for rare weapons, so that's alright with me, but is this a typical set of 50 drops, or have I just lost my WF?

I don't know if you had your question answered, but unless you are going for experience points, you should always run Pindle on Players 1. IIRC, he will always drop 2 items and 4 potions so the increased setting won't help with drops. If you have a decent build, you should be able to do a run in <30 seconds and in my experience, I see a Green/Gold every 5-10 minutes (10-20 runs).

Meph, and other end bosses, is best on Players 3 as it should eliminate the no-drop chance (I have seen only 5 items drop, but it is a rarity and it could happen from a double gold drop, etc). On P1 you get between 4-6 drops and on P2 5-6 so on P3 it's the 6 drops. If you can kill quickly, P3 is the way to go. Admittedly, I'll sometimes run him on P8 for the experience points.

Good Luck

According to battle.net resource for prefix and suffix, the highest possible number for %ED is 300% (Cruel). Maybe there's some update in don't know yet. Could u please explain a little bit?

As stated a rare can spawn with both cruel and grandmasters prefix, for a possible total of 450% enhanced damage. A crafted weapon can spawn with those two mods and the inherent (up to) 60%, doing a total of 510% enhanced damage.

An eth cryptic sword with 350+ ED, A fool's mod, self repairing, IAS, and 2 sockets. which, in my dream world, would be filled with 2x Lo runes. and ctc Amp would just sweeten the deal.

A rare cannot spawn with both cruel and fools mod.

Close... it can't spawn with grandmaster's and fool's mod (or grinding and cruel, I think).

Spawn and Battle are now words that are sponsored?

Odd?

Wow, congrats all! It's impressive to see items which I don't have, but would like to! :thumbsup: Congrats on the grandpas, the doombringer, wolfhowl... EVERYTHING!

For you gurus, just how bad is Pindle at dropping sets/uniques? I'm running him with my javazon, and I'm having terrible green/gold luck.

Don't stop running him! You will think that he doesn't drop you anything and you will ask your self why he is more bounteous to other people so often... But if you continue running him, you WILL find something. I repeat you WILL. Does that encourage you? I am saying that because I felt just like you a few weeks ago. Your 50 runs are practically nothing... I haven't run him that much either, but at least I leveled up my javazon from lvl 83 to 87 on p1!! In that time I didn't get anything good, just stuff I already had or crap and my mf is almost just like yours. It really became boring, so I left him alone for some time, but yesterday I didn't know what to do and started running him again and guess what? I run, run, run... and BAM my first tc87, M'avina's True Sight. A few runs later my first leviathan! Oh my... this was so awesomely cool. Since yesterday I run him on p3 for exp, which is still fast. I would run him on p8, if I could manage it, but my valk doesn't stand them long enough then or the undeads behind me reach me, even though I planted a decoy besides them... Hm, yes, what I want to say is: DO IT! Run him to death and yo WILL find something good. For sure! If it's boring do something else and return to him when you think it's the right time.

Nice finds Ron!

Just wondering, what kind of setup do you have on your summoner can I ask?

Of course you can ask! Nothing I like talking about more!
Level 80
Ptopaz Shako
Ptopaz Skullders
Gull/rhyme necro head with +3 RS
42% War Travs
40% Chancies
Goldwrap
29% Mara's
Naj staff on switch
1 summon charm
37% Gheeds Fortune

With small MF charms, I have just over 540% MF. I raise my army and kill pindle. Then I do Trav Council, Meph, Ancient tunnels, the Pit and Andy. Whole run takes around 15-20 minutes.

Merc has Upped Hone Sundan, Guillomes face, and Upped Goldskin armor. My CE is very high around level 28 right now. I want to get some more MF charms.

I just made Patriarch at lunchtime. I made the kill in full mf gear, so thats a good thing. The crushing blow gear on the merc made the kill go very fast. BTW I have only been running players 1, but will kick it up to 3 or 4 this weekend and see what it does for killing speed/drops.

 

[Dave in the basement]

I found a Wraith Flight (Ghost Glaive) last night while questing in Hell. I got all excited, because it was eth, until I found out they are all ethereal. Doh!

Happy Hunting!

Dave :teeth:

 

[kabojjin]

Nothing good from Meph today. A 161% Buriza and an Io rune were pretty much the highlights. And a pretty fancy hammer I'm planning to use on baby melee chars. Too bad it didn't get any leech though.

Thanks. A couple of thoughts and coments:

- I'm too chicken to make a Rhyme Shield because I hoard runes and I can't even think of "sacrificing" a Shael/Eth. :xrollseye Although my next necro project will probably enjoy one to be honest.

- i've found pretty much all the skillers except for necro related ones. Weird.

- I currently go with Marrowalks instead of the War Travs for the "synergies" but may try the War Travs for the heck of it. If they help bring me a Skullders then I may change my long term prognosis about them. :xtongue:

- No Skullders yet for me. Sir, you are a lucky bum.

- again, I went for the Arachnids instead of the Goldwrap. As you can tell I just love +skills. I figure that increased killing power may make up for a slight loss of MF. Since i'm around the sweet spot of ~ 275-300 MF i'm doing okay.

- Still waiting for my first Mara's.

- Have you tried patting a Venomancer? Or a Bone/Summon hybrid? I'm more of a summoner/CE with a bit of bone.
