Introduction

This is a rather simple drop mod by volf for DiabloII expansion 1.11b patch. What makes this drop mod different from others is that the player gets to choose between 3 difficulty ranges on startup, easy, medium and hard. Each difficulty differs slightly, in the easies version you get wary powerful hirelings early in the game while in the hard version hirelings are as in the original game and monsters are stronger. Read more about the difficulties in the Features section.

Features

Common In all difficulty levels:

-More frequent rare, set and unique drops - this does not mean it will rain uniques and sets. In the beginning you will

notice more rare drops but once you get some "better chance of finding magic items" gear then you will notice a huge

difference.

-Better rune drops, this means quality of the rune drops not quantity.

-Realm only runewords are enabled.

Requirements & Installation

Requirements

- Before installing the mod you need to have a clean version of diablo2 expansion with 1.11b patch. (clean version means no third party programs and a legal copy of the game).

- This mod has only been tested with windows xp, if you test the mod on a different windows version then please let us know how it went.

Installation

Step1 - Once you have unpacked the zip to your desktop, go to the files folder and copy the data folder and the DROPMOD_Start.bat file to your diablo2 directory (your diablo2 directory maeans the folder where you have the game installed, this is usually under C:program FilesDiablo II). If there already is a data folder in there, then rename the old data folder to something else before you copy over the new one.

Step2 - Go back to your desktop and create a shortcut to the DROPMOD_Start.bat.

How to make a shortcut- right click, choose create a new shortcut, the shortcut creation screen will pop up, now press the browse button and browse to the DROPMOD_Start.bat that is now in your Diablo II directory. When done press next and choose a name or use the default one and press finish.
