I honestly don't see why putting any points into energy is a waste.

Early on, if you want to consistently use non-passive attacks or spells, it saves a lot of hassle with having to sacrifice attack for mana steal, or stocking your belt with mana potions.

When I say early on ...

I book marked a thread in the Diablo II forum, which I'm guessing has a flash pop up attached to it. The problem is, I can't see the ad, and apart from selecting GameBanshee home, I can't select anything else. This also happens when I'm browsing other forums.

I'm running Firefox 2.

Fair points.

I would still rate a boss kill in the same level as rushing though. ;)

Would you have any suggestions for single player?

Or you can do what I do, login a higher level with a diff cd key, off him with the higher lvl and then just run the zon to tyrael. The quest credit is talking to tyrael and opening the portal, not actually killing duriel.

Sounds cheap to me... what's the point of playing a character if you can't ...

My Bow Assassin finished normal at level 32.

I've just played /players1 through out, untwinked.
I started off not using the plugY stash, but gave up sometime in act 3. I needed more space for my runes and gems.

My equipment isn't hot. Numerous Countess runs finally netted me the runes to make an ...

DeadAlready, I'm telling you that you're not playing with the original 1.11b files. ;)

I've looked at them, and Reapers Toll has a 1 in the ladder column.

Perhaps plugY has enabled the uniques, but not the runewords? I have vague memories about seeing some of the below items in singleplayer using ...

Yeah, players 8 is simply awesome, don't leave home without it.

Although /players 4 is the optimum for killing speed/experience. Well, depending on your character of course. If you can kill a monster on /players 8, you shouldn't be at that level. Either you're doing the level over again, playing ...

mmm.. Bow assasin aye? Sounds interesting. I'm intrigued now...

Although my set up is more like a ladder realm character than a plain unmodded 1.11b. (No changes other than Nefariouses fixed files, which allow ladder words).

I'll let you know how I get on.

Unique items drop once a game, by default. So if you restart your game you can find another one.

Reapers Toll is indeed a ladder only item in unmodded LOD. You haven't by chance installed Nefarius' Fixed 1.11b files, have you? That has allowed the ladder items to drop. (Including runewords)

Actually, you don't need the character "trainers". PlugY can unallocate all skill points. It can also help you re-allocate your stat points.

Well I am in Act 4 now with my Paladin at level 29. I took my merc with me but I died on the Plains of Despair! My merc, with his low AI, couldn't get to me to help. Now I am alone again. If I am correct, no one is avaliable to offer Mercs for hire in the Fortress of Pandemonium, right? Anyway, I ...

What items are you after? Magic? Set? Unique?

If you're after a specific item, I would just go for the high level bosses/areas. Their drop rates will get you something.

I recall trying for Vampire Gaze back in 2002. (v1.09) Then it dropped from an armour rack in act 2 nightmare.

It's all luck ...

Erm...I hate to tell this to you but you can't hack or cheat an MMORPG. Only the graphics are run on your computer, otherwise MMO's are in complete control of the company who made it.

They weren't banned for hacking the MMO, they were banned for using a duplicated or generated CD-Key.

Just a note, you would have lost your money anyway, as all the gold in your corpse does drop next to it, not inside the corpse. So, when exiting the game and reentering, everything else should be there but gold...

Though the loss of items sounds like bug... :confused:

Curiosity got the better of me. I personally play 1.10 final with single player, only because alot of mods are for that version.

I know of a couple of people who up until recently were playing 1.07.
