d2 item generation = close to perfection. blizzard really outdid everybody else with d2 lord of destruction. so popular are some items that they were even sold on ebay. every bowazon aimed for a buriza, every javazon for a titan's revenge, every barbarian dreamed of a four-socket cruel colossus blade of quickness, or an immortal king's set or a fury berserker axe, or an arreat's face...the list just goes on and on.
Damn straight. Its what keeps me going back to the game. If I just run Baal/pits/chaos sanctury one more time maybe I can find that zod rune or ethereal bezerker axe. Its like pokemon, gotta collect 'em all!
The skill diversity is fantastic too. Melee sorcs, tourettes barbs, cleric paladins, the list is endless. Ever read about the guy who made a 'punching' sorc? No skills, no attribute points, no gear! Just lots and lots and lots of healing potions. Killed Andariel after an epic fist fight! (Some people have waaaay too much time on their hands!) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
