This has got to be the best patch ever for this game.
Leveling harder, no more boosting chars (level restriction on difficulty), Magic Find doesn't work on bosses/superuniques anymore (bye Pindleskin!), cowlevel nerfed, it's finally becoming a challenge.
Unique items have been boosted, some are just superuber now, for example: a small charm with +1 to all skills.
And the new "Ladder Characters", this ladder is really gonna be a challenge, an example of the new exp changes:
--> Characters Above Level 70:
For any monster above your level, you get EXP*(Player Level / Monster Level).
For monsters between 6-10 levels below you, you receive between 100% and 5% experience.
If the monster is more than 10 levels below your level, you receive 5% of the monster's experience points.
After experience is calculated, the following penalties will apply. For example a level 70 character only receives 79.98% of the experience.
A level 79 only receives 10.74% of the experience.
A level 98 only receives 0.20% of the experience.
Complete list
So... you need at least 1000x as more exp to do 98-99 than before the patch....
The levels 70+ will be for the elite, 80+ for the super-elite, 90+ is godlike again.
Oh, and no more duping, no more cow level, and NO MORE MAPHACKS, they can detect it and have already banned 120.000 accounts!
(according to forums)
Damn I love this patch, and I'll be playing D2 LoD again
Anyone else interested in this? or am I the only D2 junkie here?
