Something I found on the B.net forums, I hope the author does not mind.

The day has come,
The accounts are gone,
Many people saying
“I did no wrong.”

“I did not cheat!”
“I did not hack!”
“Come on Blizzard,
give my account back!”

“I worked so hard,
to get all that stuff”,
but in the end,
Blizzard had enough.

They ignored the whines,
They ignored the cries,
because they knew,
they were all lies.

“You wouldn’t stop cheating,
what could we do?
You can blame yourself,
we warned you!”

“Sorry for your loss,
but we just don’t care.
We feel that the punishment,
was justifiably fair.”

“But I need my account,
I’m getting bored.”
“Too bad”, Bliz said,
“It wont be restored!”

“The next round is soon,
it’s already planned.
Stop cheating now,
or you will be banned!”

Gfraizer said,
with a smirk on his face,
“So long you cheaters,
you’re such a disgrace!”

Three days ago a Chat was brought about...It is found HERE

The one that caught my eye was this...

[Bridenbecker] Will necromancer skeletons be improved?
[BRoper] Oh my, yes. We are bumping up the life and damage your Skeletons get from Skelton Mastery, as well as really beefing them up in their individual skills.

And throughout the chat...there was no mention of EVERY single ITEM being deleted or whatever. In fact it would appear 1.09 items can be carried over to 1.10 presuming that it isn't bugged/hacked.

I got that thought from this.

[Bridenbecker]Will 1.09 items be automatically upgraded to 1.10 items?
[DiabloIIDevTeam] No they won't. You have to find the new ones to get the new stats and attributes.

and this

[Bridenbecker] Is there any way to distinguish 1.09 set items from 1.10 set items when trading?
[BRoper] There is no way to distinguish this, but if this is a concern, that is just another good reason to play in the new Ladder. Sets built with mixed 1.09 and 1.10 items will still get the full new set bonuses, however.

Read the rest from the link.

Cyaround,
Jason

anarchistbunny, that would be great if they actually did that.

I still blame them for make the horifficly bug game which even allowed hack & duped items on closed bnet.

I really hope they ban those ^%&^ bots.

Hey I was wondering, do any one of you play in Europe?~Jason

Anarchist Bunny · Post by **Anarchist Bunny** » 2003-06-23 07:03pm

Holy shit, Necro Elite-Exeptional Set now makes him look like a vampire and gives him fireball and firewall skills like a vampire.

Soontir C'boath · Post by **Soontir C'boath** » 2003-06-24 04:18pm

Very godly stuff.....1.09 items should be able to get those bonus' right?
Here's the link to it.
Vampire Necro and skills

Cyaround,

Anarchist Bunny · Post by **Anarchist Bunny** » 2003-06-24 06:27pm

Nope, 1.09 set items will not change and will keep their old complete set affects, but if you can find just one of the 1.10 set items the complete set affects will change to the new ones.

Okay a slight bit of necromancy...but because we are still a group...here goes

Download the beta patch...there is some wild shit in there guys.

Seriously it'll make you think about where you want stat points.

Anarchist Bunny · Post by **Anarchist Bunny** » 2003-07-11 01:08am

One Tanks: Keevan(Druid){east}
Two support melee: Coaan(Paladin){east} + ThirdFain(Asn)
Two distance: Sriad(Warcry 2hand throw barb) + Beowulf(Zon){east}.
Two Spellcasters: Anarchist Bunny(firewall sorc){East} Ghost Rider(Cold/Lit sorc){East}
One Summoner: Soontir(Necro){East}

Okay, updates, if anyone on the list wants to back on mention now.

As I've mentioned in several threads, I probly won't have internet for 22 days starting Saturday, so if the patch is released in that time(likely) I'll will not beable to join in.

Other note, on my build, synergies and nerfing(I think) has weakened firewall and dual element sorcs, and so I probly will not be doing that build. Right now I'm planning on doing Firebolt(MAX), Fireball(MAX) Fire master(MAX), with other points going into teleport and prerequisit, static field,(63 points) and then I'm trying to decide between Hydra and Warth MAXED or Meator MAXED.

GR, I suggest you choose between Cold or Lit(Lit can get 4-4000 chain lightning w/bolt, lit, chainlit, and litmast maxed, Cold can get 1800-2000 with Blizzard and the three ice bolts maxed)

Coaan, Maxing a elemental off and def aura, and the all around resist aura is going to be essential, they add shit loads of damage to everyone's attacks, and deal damage/slow to everyone in the radius.

Uhhhh, unless someone drops(which could unwillingly be me), the team is full, you can always start a thread and make your own.

Generally that's how I like to play....savlation and something like vengence coupled with fanatacism Is a bloody hard hitting combination when you use the patriarch for dealing with those physical immunes that the druid can't touch

Haven't used def auras much for a while save for defiance and salvation...though I'm tempted just to go with salvation and to hell with the rest

No no no, I mean an elemental off and an elemental def of the same type, and then salvation. Maxing Lit off aura and lit def aura and salvation gives you an aura that does 1-666 damage to everthing in the aura periodicly and gives 4-3500 to everyone's weapons.

Hamel · Post by **Hamel** » 2003-07-11 07:55am

I have a a lvl 25 bone spear necro going on in tcp/single.

Doing okay with synergies.

1.10 is limiting casters to one good skill and almost nothing else. Tri elementalists are impossible, and dual elementalists won't kill anything.

If the patch comes in September, you can count me out.

Uhh I was wrong, it's closer to 4-4000, here, have some screen shots!
(with Lit resist aura, All resist aura, and ofcourse the skill shown maxed)

Uhfortunately this is a, at the very least, lvl 63 build(3 skills maxed plus prerequisist. 55 with quest skill points from nightmare and norm.

And some Necro ones.
(with the three posion skills maxed out)

Also, I was playing around with necro summons, with the four resurrections summons maxed, you get 9 skels with 300 something hp and dealing 130 something damage, 8 skel magi with 221 hp, and 20 revived monsters, and with skl mastery maxed, they have x4hp and x3 damage.

1.10 is limiting casters to one good skill and almost nothing else. Tri elementalists are impossible, and dual elementalists won't kill anything.

Which sucks, since you need todo acceptable damage in all 3 elemental damage types. Since immunes are so damn common now.

Level 20 lightning mastery adds +278% extra lightning damage

Even with level 20 nova & level 20 lightning mastery, you looking at a max of 495-710 damage for 34 mana.

level 20 Lightning & level 20 lightning mastery 3-5963 for 17.5 mana,
level 20 chainlightning is 3-3611 for 28 mana.

I havent looked to see how level 20 TS is, but its probable been toned down.

With nightmare & hell modes being so disproportionably hard, there is a limit on how far you can level in normal mode.

Getting in a char to +40 level is going to be very hard, near impossible. Lets not even consider the 40-99 range.

And the dependance on really kick ass items is also going to present a problem(for the players).

I'm giving up on spellcasters in 1.1 beta, at least till a viable stratagy for them is found. Melee characters look to be in their element in this version.

Arise thread, you will serve me even in your death!

Err, is this still going on? I just got D2 this week... If anybody wants to play, I'm an level 29 Amazon, though I'm looking to create a new Amazon since some random person gave me a Titan's Revenge Ceremonial Javelin for free.

Perhaps I can exchange Europe items for whatever realms you guys are in?
