This update lowers item drop rates considerably. Added a 10 second cooldown to telepo- naw just kidding Fixed cube recipe for ethereal indestructible unique Selling Light crossbow could spawn uber diablo event Removed perfect gem drops from nightmare Thunderstorm proc rate returned to vanilla speed, but its damage is increased by 300% Lowered drop rate of rejuvanation potions Experience gain is returned back to vanilla values Shrines can not stack anymore and they also get removed when u are cursed (back to vanilla) their duration is still increased. Removed knockback from set items and replaced it with a different stat (bulkathos sword and creglaw gloves) Essentially Larzuk hammer now does exactly what larzuk quest reward does. Read the ingame menu for updated recipes. Socketing crafting recipes now require the item + larzuk hammer. Added larzuks hammer back (they are much rarer than before)
If you are going to install this update by overwriting the old files, you need to also delete the old itemratio.txt. Lowered drop rates for Runes Fal-Zod and unique, set, rare items (The old drop rates are available as optional file)
But everything is now obtainable by a single player :D In Vanilla Plus, powerful unique items are still rare.
I do not want to take that good feeling of finding that really powerful and rare item away by showering you in them constantly like some other mods have done in the past. This means you could be playing for tens of thousands of hours to find that dream item you've always wanted. Unfortunately Vanilla Diablo II has ridiculous low drop rates for items, and a bit *too* much randomization in its itemization. I am sure many of you have memories of dropping your first Stone of Jordan, or crafting your first Enigma.
This mod is an enhanced and improved Vanilla Diablo II experience, it adds lots of new features and improvements to the base Diablo II game that we all know, such as: Improved loot, monster density, crafting recipes, quality of life features, and much more! It does this all in a way that tries to stay true to the original vision of Blizzard North!Ī big part of why we all come back again and again to Diablo, and other games in this genre, is the rush and excitement when you find that really rare and powerful item. Thanks for checking out my singleplayer overhaul of Diablo II Resurrected
