Dear Puma,
what is really the reason for playing a mod if you expect to port all your "Uber" characters with accompanying "uber" gear directly to it?
I think that you miss the whole point, and along with that a terrific opportunity to experience the finest "Diablo-themed" gameplay available.
TheDark, although it easily surpasses other Diablo incarnations, is not for the feint of heart. I for one always diskliked the "porting" of chartacters between games. Think about how it would be if one could port directly his lvl 50 char from Diablo to D2. It is common the case with mods that one may easily be tricked to assume that he already "knows the game". Learning curves, in order to be effective, have to
be climbed and not landed on top of.
All in all, I do think that you should start with a fresh char and see for yourself what TheDark really has to offer. You will not be dissapointed ;)
Have fun!
