Cool, where can I download the version 1.11 patch. I'm stuck playing on 1.10....

D2's not dead and d2 wont die for a while. The new patch gave it new hope if anything. There are SO many builds to do. And with synergies, hybrids are more and more powerful. New runewords and patches were great too. Having sorcs as the only chars who could tele was rather annoying. All they had to do was make an orber, then tele, spam and orb, tele again, with no hope of any char other then a paladin or anotehr sorc to catch up with it.

The patch didn't randonly bring "n00bs" into the game. They were always there.

1.09 was the age of hacks, dupes, buggs, and all that other shit that made chars uber godly. 1.10 is the reformation if anything. It got rid of most that shit. Although there are still dupes here and there, they arent nearly as bad as before.
