Other changes:

-----------------------------------------------------------

Version 1. 0

- Added panels with hints on Horadric Cube recipes, a list of changes in this modification, and character skills.

- Increased the capacity of inventory, Horadric Cube, and chest. Moreover, the chest received both several tabs and many sheets, which made its size almost infinite.

- Many new recipes for the Horadric Cube. (you can view their hints directly in the game by opening the tab in the menu "Horadric cube recipes")

- Hirelings use more skills. They became more effective. Can be equipped with rings, belts, gloves, amulets.

- Any item + jewels for the number of sockets you want -> Item with number of sockets equal to number of jewels. WARNING: If an item does not support the number of jewels you put in it will use the highest number of sockets it does support.

- 2 of any rune for the next tier. No limits (max 33 tier, Zod rune). Also possible to downgrade them.

- Monster density has been increased 2x on Normal, 3x on Nightmare and 4x on Hell difficulty levels. The game has a much greater chance to spawn unique packs. Also there is more champions and unique monsters.

- Player resistances have been decreased in every difficulty for more of a challenge. Nightmare is -75, Hell is -150. Monsters lvl increased by 25% on Nightmare and by 50% Hell difficulties.

- The shrines have more powerful buffs that lasts longer.

- All missiles have 2x velocity and range.

- Greatly increased drop rates. This is due to there being many items that have been added to the game. If old rates existed it would take forever to find all the goodies that now exist.

- Max character level is now 220, gaining 8 stat and 2 skill points per level.

- Max skill level is 30, all skills able to be cast in town.

- All characters now start with the same life, stamina, and mana while also gaining the same amount for each level gained or stat points invested.

- Gems provides more attributes, depends on their level. Each class has his special gem that gives skill bonuses when applied to the items with sockets. Gems have more properties.

- All items in game are either new, buffed or enhanced in some way. This is where 5 different mods come together and really make this modpack shine in my opinion.

- Throwing potions do more damage and became more useful.

- Scrolls of Enhantment can be purchased from Halbu in Act 4 and Larzuk in Act 5.

- Significantly increased experience gained for killing bosses.

- "Magic Small, Large, and Grand Charms as well as Jewels can be purchased from Jamella in Act 5.

- Gems & Runes can be purchased from Larzuk in Act 5.

- Stat Potion & Book of Skills can be purchased from Malah in Act 5.

- Removed the terrible teal coloring of vanilla D2R crystal sword and made it a proper blue color, like in the olden days.
