Description

Pindleskin
is one of the most popular targets to farm because of his ease of access and treasure class of 87, which allows him to drop almost any item (he can't drop items that have a qlvl greater than 86).

The quickest way to reach him repeatedly is to use the red portal to
Nihlathak's Temple
that is next to
Anya
. However, this portal closes if
Betrayal of Harrogath
has been completed in addition to the
Halls of Pain
waypoint being activated (does not apply to Resurrected; the portal will stay open regardless).

This guy dropped me my first ever
Death's Web
while I was doing MF runs with my Javazon.

He's my buddy now.

Can drop every item in the game except for:
Tyrael's Might
,
Azurewrath
and
Arachnid Mesh

After testing, It is now confirmed that the portal to
Nihlathak's Temple
does NOT close if you get the waypoint and kill
Nihlathak
. The portal now remains open all the time.

Pindleskin
is a Super Unique which means he always drops 2 items of Magic quality with chances for upgrades to Rare, Set, Unique, etc (unless he drop a rune/gem).
This chance for upgrade is directly affected by you Magic Finding %.

Since the number of drops are fixed for Super Uniques it is usually more beneficial to farm him on lower player counts (commonly P1). Typically you'll want to increase your MF as much as you can and make your 'Pindle Runs' as fast as possible. Only increase the player count if you can clear him and his minions equally fast. While increasing the player count won't affect
Pindleskin
drop rates it will increase the XP gained per run and the drop chances for his minions.

In D2R, Blizzard removed the old "Realm Down" feature of D2LOD and replaced it with a game join timer. Previously, you had to wait out a 30-minute timeout if you quit and joined too many online games too quickly within a set span of time, which added a layer of tediousness to Pindle farming: you had to find a way to meaningfully extend your game sessions to avoid this timeout; the most popular method was adding Eldritch and Shenk to your runs. In D2R, you don't need to do that. The new game join timer starts at the minimum of 10 seconds (a single Pindle kill always takes longer) when the servers aren't experiencing a heavy load and goes up the more people are currently online (90 seconds max).
