Completely Sad..

I'm completely ignorant of post-LOD complications in D2.  I know an Ith is one of the runes, and I suppose a Hydra Bow is an exceptional or elite item.  But what's with the chipped gems?  Has some cube recipe come up that suddenly makes them valuable again?

(On that topic, one thing I *do* like about D2 is the Horadric Cube system.  Particularly the way it allows Blizzard a cool way to alter the relative values of items - by releasing new cube recipies.)

I'm kind of torn, actually.  One part of me sticks with my old determined stance - refusal to update my D2 version as a personal stance against game designers constantly changing the rules on me.  The other part of me wants to get LOD (and thus the built-in 1.09 upgrade) because it looks so cool.  Damn Blizzard!  Damn them I say!  ^_^;

I chucked in the $20 to get the Expansion last Saturday because, well, my car wrecked, so I'm not going to be doing anything beyond the house until the insurance clears.

You see, I got one of the new releases of the Expansion pack. And the most recent version it was patched to was v1.08. I still had to download the v1.09d patch for it.
