It significantly increases drop rates for set, unique, and rare items and allows high runes to drop more often. If you find yourself struggling with RNG, this mod might be your answer. Just make sure you're well prepared before you set out to take on the increased hordes. Each file multiplies the spawned enemies by that amount so that you can farm them for XP, gold, and other items. Newcomers may learn the same fear of the dark I rediscovered and come to love it just as much, but only if they're willing to accept the terms of the year 2000, however archaic they may seem.If you want to increase the number of enemies that spawn, this is the mod for you. Instead, the players gathered here have all been playing Diablo 2 for years, and now have a prettier, smoother, more accessible, and slightly less finicky version to enjoy.

This is not a videogame designed to inaugurate a fresh generation of Tristram survivors-that duty is surely left to the forthcoming Diablo 4.

Surely, that's preferable to this chronic maintenance of 2000, as we clumsily attempt to remember exactly where we left our poison darts.īut again, I'm not a dedicated Diablo 2 head, and that's who Resurrected is beckoning. Forever more, we had a sturdy set of icons in easy reach.

Just four years later, Blizzard would release World of Warcraft and completely revolutionize the way they designed RPGs. You can map two abilities to both the left and right click, while the rest of your spellbook is condemned to standby status on the F1 through F8 keys. I'd forgotten that Diablo 2 arrived before the action bar revolution. I love and respect all my hardcore Diablo 2 lifers who want their dungeon-crawl dipped in formaldehyde, but… does our inventory really need to be this small? Are the constant corpse runs, where we pluck our displaced gear off our bodies, all that necessary? But it's a nice gesture.Īnd yet, despite all of these tweaks and innovations, there's a voice deep within me that wishes Resurrected went a few steps further. Blizzard is currently in the midst of a cascading legal situation following allegations of widespread sexism and harassment at the studio, and given those circumstances, isn't going to earn big praise for de-objectifying one of its old heroes. She's currently coiffed in steel battle dress, and I noticed the earlier depictions of her regalia were much more revealing. I've spent most of my time in Resurrected playing a stout-hearted Amazon named Arlene. The updates aren't limited to the beautiful devastation of Sanctuary either.
