memories of d2 ...what do you remember?

- i remember when runes were White making them even harder to find
- Using the website

Arreat Summit as my database, I consider this site as the new and improved version
- the whole

Ith items craze, occy rings and White rings included
- the speed of the trade channel on the original d2, I kinda miss that
- the scams, rattle cage for tals etc
- bowazons being peak circa 1.09 and

Windforce being the holy grail

what are yours?

when the old d2 just come out. My brother witness a guy play in net cafe get

Windforce
and everyone in the cafe yell and celebrate.

The

Windforce sold at 10k usd or something insane.

The old

Windforce is very hard to drop. And it is very early time of d2, that no one knows how much it can go up.

The old d2 runs for a very long time, that early

Windforce, probably worth it for legendary player. I feel the time he get it that early, probably top 100

Windforce in world.

Oh man! i was in middle school when the original d2 came out, and I was instantly hooked. So much fun as a kid before learning how to min-max a bit...

- putting bunch of points into strength as a necromancer because I wanted to hold a

Spear
- all the duping! I remember I had never seen an SOJ until I saw a friend's stash who had somehow figured out how to dupe
- All the PK'ing and hanging out by the corpse to try to get you to click on your corpse and drop items. I was unfortunately victim of this, and dropped by barb's rare

Executioner Sword. Made me quit for a bit until LoD came out
- I remember

Iron Maiden was super OP in original D2. I would hardly ever lose a duel to a ww barb. just get out the way, curse and put a

Bone Wall and they were done
- grandfather sword was so hard to find and stuff of legends.. I don't think i ever did end up seeing one in person. well tbf, I still haven't found one to this day, even though I did find a couple of windforces in d2r

my roommate used some krazy tool to give his

Executioner Sword 15 sockets..;

i 'member when when sorceress could

Telekinesis picking up all the good loot. it made me absolutely furious all the time. i wish they would've just made all the drops individual like in D3/4.

I exclusively traded between servers and pvp'd. I didn't even know 99% of the mechanics and never got to enjoy the beauty of a single-player experience. Play totally different today and appreciate it so much more.

4x6 stash baby!

When

Whirlwind barbs and bowazons ruled.

I remember starting D2 on launch day with a Paladin. I had no clue, no guide, no internet etc. My journey ended in Hell at the beginning of Act 4. When I left the

Pandemonium Fortress, I was always killed instantly
