Vince_Helm has released a new beta version of the Spirit of Diablo mod for Diablo 2. This mod aims to make the game feel and play more like the first title in this hack n slash RPG series. Moreover, the mod makes the game harder and harder, and brings new character and more flexible char builds.
Going into more details, beta version 0.6 reworks the Book system and the 3rd Skill Tab. Moreover, it increases the max level for skills/spells in 3rd tab to 5, and brings various skill description fixes. It also modifies the speed for polearms, maces, 2 handed axes so they can be faster, and changes the Fire Claws synergies.
