Pindle/Mephisto/Bhaal runs

[2xm]

I have a question mostly about pindle runs is there a quicker way to get to him then walking up from the halls of pain i make my character in zonfire and just checked all quests i know anya opens a portal right beside pindle but if you do the quest the normal way does it stay open? or if you just never finish the quest the portal will always be open...I heard that mephisto drops worse but he drops good items more often then bhaal and pindle but both bhaal and pindle and necitishi or whatever the necromancers name is that is in the halls of pain place can drop the best items in games thats why they drop rarrer

you heard correctly. baal mephy and nihilthak drop better, pindle drops more often. If you have done anyas quest there is no way to get her to open the portal again, you gota take the wp and run all the way back up. If your using zonfire, i assume you play open. If you play open, jsut make some kick ass items.

yea i make kick ass items (lol) my last sword did i think 1m minimum and 26m max and i never use charms...of course i couldn't move my mouse over anything in my invantory...I enjoy making the game hard somtimes by playing legit though

Acctually, i thought meph dropped more often, but pindle and baal have the potential to drop better. Also, nithilak may be mlvl 98, but Im not sure what treasure classes he can drop, i dont think it's very high, so he would drop crap.

OOPS :X yeah lol i dont know wtf i was thinkin when i made that lost post. Mephy drops the most, but only good items, Pindle baal and nihithak have the ability to drop godly items (baal and nihithak more than pindle). To the best of my knowledge, baal and nihlithak are the only to monsters that can drop tyraels might aka rarest armor in the game.

Heres the dropping ratio (not accurate, and no calculation done, its the truth tho.)

Pindle: drops a LOT of items, but all the godly items are rare to find.
Meph: drops some what lot of items, and drops more often.
Baal/Nithalik: Drops all items in d2, but very rare to get actually good items.

Read my previous post, then look up nithilak's TC. Why do you think no one runs him? He probably drops crap.

no, hes with too much monsters, and his corpse explosion pwns many chars. And yes, he does drop godly items, after all his lvl is 95.
