It's probably fair to say that Blizzard has encouraged Diablo II fans to buy the expansion pack, Lord Of Destruction, in the same kind ot way Don Corleone encourages loyalty. The character skill and spell modifications imposed on the online community in their last tew patches have meant many players have found their elite characters dampened and have been 'persuaded' to buy the expansion pack to play through the higher nightmare and hell modes and pick up some new weapons to try and regain their status. Blizzard need not have been quite so militant because Lord of Destruction is good enough to have sold itself, but you can't help but have respect for that kind of sneakiness.
The first thing I would ensure is having patch 1.12/1.13 installed which lets you play without any discs inserted (copy protection removed). You must copy all.mpq files from the disc(s) to your harddrive, though. Unfortunately, even this doesn't help on some systems (the disc check itself seems broken). Install Diablo, configure DX settings the way you like (recommended video settings: 800x600, 60 Hz) - download Hellfire ISO from here (which has a.bin and a.cue file) - mount and install Hellfire ISO using the.cue file - copy the following files from your Diablo dx directory to your Hellfire directory: ddraw.dll, dxcfg.exe, dxcfg.ini. Dec 15, 2010 Favorite Answer First, you have to mount the ISO image and in order to do that download Daemon tools lite program (it's only 5 mb or so)install and open it and click on add file icon (disk+). Go to Diablo 3 Ingame Forum (link) where User ChaosMarc offers the installer.iso files for Diablo II: LoD 1.12a. No fear, these are the official blizzard download files from before the 1.14 destroy the community patch and should be completely legal. You own this game and can install the patch version you like. Re: Diablo II, LoD: Insert Expansion disc Copying those files from the CD to the HDD before 1.12 allowed the use of music and changes without the CD present after program start-up. The patch simply allows the start-up process to ignore CD requirements now, but the music file is still necessary to be copied and shouldn't have a problem.
For those not so familiar with the Diablo world, Lord Of Destruction contains two new characters, the druid and the assassin, a fifth act that picks up from the end of Diablo II, two combat sets, plus a host of new weapons and items such as runes and jewels. Among some of the most notable 'tweaks' is the increase in damage of the Amazon's strafe arrow and the reduction in damage of her multi-arrow, which has meant a few pissed off Amazons who have previously poured all their skill points into multi-arrow.
A Bit Of A Tweak
There has also been a reduction in the amount leeching weapons leech, and the whirlwind skill of the Barbarian is now dependent on the speed of their weapon, rather than the standard whirlwind speed. Blizzard seems to be trying to create a level playing field to incorporate the new characters or it could be just a way of getting players to abandon their grip on the original five to give the two new ones a going over.
This has obviously worked, as the two new characters are proving immensely popular, and have boosted battlenet's already healthy attendance. The assassin has proved particularly tasty, as she employs the traits of most of the other characters, plus her own unique charge-up skills. The druid works in a similar way to the necromancer, but instead of summoning skeletons he summons wolves, bears and poisonous vines to his side. If tweaking the sorceress's spell-casting speed helped combat the ever-present problem of online lag, then this guy makes up for it.
Achange Of Face
What makes this expansion pack good value, is that by making-over the original characters, it changes the way the original game is played. Although the fifth act is sadly rather short when compared to the previous four, the enhanced difficulty levels, new weapons and rune words, have kept the trade channels buzzing, and you can't build a superior online character unless you jump in and show off the colour of your money. Blizzard has cleared things up since we last saw Diablo 2 online, the play is quite smooth even on a 56K modem, although there's lag with larger games. Lord Of Destruction is a good package for newbies and veterans alike.
