Description:
Major bugs

  • Fixed a rare bug that would mark a character as "Unable to join, Bad item." A typical cause of this bug was high lag conditions
    while two characters simultaneously attempted to use the same item lying on the ground - for example, a Necromancer casting
    Iron Golem on a sword while another tried to pick it up.
  • Fixed a bug where Diablo II would crash when using 64MB video cards.

Minor Bugs

  • Strafe (Amazon)
    Fixed a bug where extra arrows would be fired for any minions or party members the Amazon had, which will reduce its effectiveness in these situations
  • Fixed a loophole that allowed either the Necromancer wearing the complete set of Infernal Tools or the
    Paladin with the Milabrega set to temporarily boost his skills to very high levels.
  • Fixed a bug that caused Amazons wielding a javelin in the right side inventory box and a shield in the
    left to do no damage with javelin-throwing skills assigned to the right mouse button.
  • Fixed a bug in Open games that dropped players with slower machines from the game when they talked to Act III NPCs.
  • Fixed 3 rare lock-up bugs with Lord De Seis: 1) killing him as any character, 2) leaping away from him
    as a Barbarian, and 3) being killed by him while simultaneously drinking a potion.
  • If a player tries to create a game when a Realm server is fully occupied, the player is prompted to join a game instead. It no
    longer reports "Server Down" in this case.
  • The "Toggle Belt" hotkey is no longer active when the in-game chat overlay is displayed.

Improvements

  • Items sold by Vendors under the Misc Tab no longer sell out
  • Settings are kept when creating games on Battle.net
  • Game creation queue added. Client now informed of game creation position.
  • Reduced the average bandwidth required for each player/client.
    Effects: reduction in lag and a slight modification to the updating
    of the Life Orb. There may be a period of adjustment for some players
    and we encourage you to pay closer attention to your Life Orb until
    you are used to this change.
  • Added support for future server performance improvements.
    Effect: Future reduction in lag and future increase in the number
    of games per server.
  • When a server goes down, the clients will no longer be left in
    "limbo" for up to 20 seconds, but will exit immediately to
    Battle.net chat.
  • Messages from Battle.net are now yellow.


Balance Changes

  • Corpse Explosion (Necromancer)
    Reduced the extra radius gained per level of the skill from 1 to 1/2.
    Reduced the explosion damage so that it is not scaled up for each additional player in the game
  • Revive (Necromancer) Removed the hit point boost for extra levels gained in this skill
  • Conversion (Paladin) Lowered the formula calculating the chance to convert for extra levels gained in this skill
  • Whirlwind (Barbarian) Decreased the number of attack attempts made when using this skill
  • Pierce (Amazon) Magical arrow effects such as Immolation will apply to every target hit
