![]() ![]() You do bossruns on Normal so you can get items to survive Nightmare. You try to survive the act bosses on Normal using the shitty items available. You grow your char level by level, which means that the early- and mid-game are challenging and fun. *You level up more slowly and consistently. You experience more of the content, which is fun whereas on Bnet you get rushed through acts, then do tens of Diabloruns and/or Baalruns. First, you walk through the whole act, doing the quests. In single player you are poor, and when you are poor, the good items feel even more powerful and impressive and mysterious than when people are offering them on trade screens. ![]() When I first found the Immortal King's soul cage in single player, 5-6 years ago, I felt more happy than when I traded for one on Bnet a few years before that. Second, it makes you appreciate your items more. One of the best aspects of Diablo 2 is the farming. Trading is an easy way to obtain the stuff for your build, but it makes the game less interesting. First, it makes bossruns more thrilling, because your hopes and dreams of a good item are on the line. *Trading can be fun, but you end up obtaining earlygame/midgame items too easily Can be fun but it is not what Diablo 2 is made for If one char is overpowered, the game stops being a combat game and turns into a "follow the guy, pick up the loot" game, which is boring. *PvM with a group can be fun if you are all equally strong. If you play LAN with strangers, God only knows what you will find in your game. You need some preparation (LAN client, finding actual teammates) to do bossruns in single player *bossruns - 8 players going for Diablo or Baal is awesome. In my experience, single player is better - a bit less entertaining but more rewarding and lasting longer. I've played hundreds of hours of Diablo 2 LoD, created about 10 chars on EU West that could solo Hell Baal on players5, and then went to play single player, starting from scratch. TL DR - it's more fun to earn all levels and items yourself than to get rushed and to trade for gear. Last updated at 14:00:17 UTC Weekly Help Desk RAGE Loot Thread Trade Thread ![]()
