Terror Acts

Description

Terror Acts is a D2RMM mod designed for players who find the standard one-hour, single-map Terror Zone rotations too restrictive. Instead of terrorizing one map at a time, this mod corrupts logical segments of an Act all at once. No changes are made to Terror Zones themselves (level scaling, drops, experience) - just more zones Terrorized at any given time.

New in 1. 1: You can now select which zone(s) you'd like to terrorize using the mod's settings in D2RMM. Note that you should select at least one zone to be terrorized, otherwise Act 4 will be used as a fallback to avoid writing a blank file.

By consolidating all maps into nine rotations, you can perform longer walks of several areas to get a "NG+" style of play. Larger acts are split into "Part A" and "Part B" segments to ensure 100% of the world is covered while adhering to the game engine's Terror Zone limit.

To this end, I've tried to align the end of each Part A to a logical stopping point somewhere in the middle of the act:

• []Act 1: Part A ends at the Dark Wood, where you would normally head back to Tristram after collecting the Scroll of Inifuss. Part B picks back up in the Black Marsh.

  []Act 2: Part A takes you to the bottom of the Maggot Lair, and part B begins with Tainted Sun.

  []Act 3: Part A finishes in the Flayer Dungeon, with Part B starting as you enter Kurast.

  []Act 4: Short enough to fit into one rotation.

  []Act 5: Part A finishes in the last above ground zone after rescuing Anya, before you head to Nihlathak, the Ancients and Baal in Part B.

  Every rotation is comprised of:

  • []a logical selection of the maps in order of progression through the game

    []an act Boss and the areas immediately leading up to them.

    []at least one S or A tier zone per Maxroll.

    Note: Likely not compatible with any other mod that edits desecratedzones.json.
