What a slow weekend; with everyone waiting for Diablo II to ship and the Stress Test ending, there hasn't been much to report. But here's something new which you can chew on while waiting for that mailman to come by: The Untitled Mod by
, author of the complete Hellfire Barbarian guide. The name might be a gimmick, but the work gone into the design of the mod isn't. Every single monster, including bosses, and all uniques in the game are new. Changed base item attributes along with new prefixes and suffixes give a whole new look to item collecting. Mana Shield and Stone Curse don't exist to add to the challenge, and humor is thrown in to spice it up here and there. Give it a look-see.
The Mod page has been updated with information about the 1.08 situation, providing alternatives to Battle.Net for multiplay (thanks, Varaya!). This should help ease the confusion about 1.07-1.08 for newcomers to the mod scene.
