You cannot play this version on Battle.net. If you install this patch, you will not be able to connect to Battle.net to play Diablo II or Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. I am gunna wait. ----------------------------------- Asok Fri Jul 04, 2003 1:03 pm ----------------------------------- I'm gonna wait till it's on B.Net, although if their are any new features you like feel free to share. ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Jul 04, 2003 4:08 pm ----------------------------------- yeah, I know its restricted only to single player expansion, but I'm beta testing the patch anyway :D Wanna figure out those sinergies what thatnot (skillz benefiting from other skillz). Though I'll probably go back to 1.09 soon to get back on b.net ----------------------------------- krishon Fri Jul 04, 2003 5:20 pm ----------------------------------- yo...check the barb...supposedly it can turn into the werewolf or werebear...but i dunno if its true ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Jul 04, 2003 5:57 pm ----------------------------------- yeah, some barb helm allows him to turn into a warewolf. also a necro can turn into a vampire with a full set of whatever. ----------------------------------- krishon Sat Jul 05, 2003 7:16 pm ----------------------------------- sweeeeettt ----------------------------------- krishon Sat Jul 05, 2003 7:18 pm ----------------------------------- my friend says its harder to level tho......i dunno if its true or not ----------------------------------- Tony Sat Jul 05, 2003 9:51 pm ----------------------------------- I've read some info on it, and basically this is how game gonna mainly change: item drop reprogrammed. Boss runs dont gain as much. And MF doesnt work on them anymore. On other hand, regular mosters drop better items on average. Skillz reballanced soo much, and generally most skills are much more powerful because of synergies. a +10 skillz would not only result in increasing the lvl of the skill, but also adds on +300% damage to Bone Spirit for example (which is awesome) Hell difficulty is a lot harder now, especially act5. lvl80s have a hard time staying alive. ----------------------------------- krishon Sun Jul 06, 2003 11:35 am ----------------------------------- ye..i tested it out...its so much worse...u get pratcially no exp...u level like a million times slower than b4...but i do like the bonuses..that's for shure. Guess wut..i used a barb the first drop i got wuz rare leather gloves :D..but it sucked ass ----------------------------------- Tony Sun Jul 06, 2003 3:24 pm ----------------------------------- I was testing out a necro and after a bit of running around I got a rare ammy with +10% faster castrate and some other bonuses.. and I'm only lvl5 or so. Oh, also I think they balanced out the experience leech thing, so now there's almost no point in leeching cows (or bloody runs) as you not going to get nearly as much exp if the lvl difference is too big. Also cow runs are less profitable items wise. ----------------------------------- krishon Sun Jul 06, 2003 5:12 pm ----------------------------------- damn maybe they shuldn't put the patch out ----------------------------------- Asok Sun Jul 06, 2003 5:17 pm ----------------------------------- I was testing out a necro and after a bit of running around I got a rare ammy with +10% faster castrate LMAO those crazy castrating necros :lol: ----------------------------------- krishon Sun Jul 06, 2003 5:19 pm ----------------------------------- lol, u'd like necros....all those corpse explosions and turning dead bodies into an army and ooo u'll love this...reviving monsters to follow u.....its so u, lol....its so u ----------------------------------- Asok Sun Jul 06, 2003 5:21 pm ----------------------------------- I played a necro, revived an army of COWS MWAHAHA! I felt like I was running a slaughter house and they were the free range cattle. ----------------------------------- krishon Sun Jul 06, 2003 5:23 pm ----------------------------------- that's exactly wut my younger bro does....poison nova, bone spear and have a herd of cows...of course he casts like amplify damage a million times.....its great when u turn the enemies against themselves :lol:
