Alrighty then, a new update. :)
I don't mind Iron Maiden being cut. For my melee characters it was a nuisance, and for my ranged characters' melee mercs, it's just a way of forcing me to spend up to 50k a pop in resurrections. The OKs still have several other curses they can cast, so it's not like they're being crippled. The mana burn reduction is also nice. Blizzard seemed to enjoy coming up with ways to punish or cripple players. Some call that 'spice', I all it annoying.
The immunity reduction is something I've enjoyed for quite some time now, so I already know this part of the mod will be nice. It's great being able to build the characters I want, within reason, and have them succeed, albeit with some or many challenges, in all difficulties. This is a game after all, and while I don't mind challenges, Blizzard's abuse of immunities really hurt the fun factor.
I use the expanded stash mod, which I downloaded back in 1.09 and updated myself for 1.10, and it works great alongside this mod when implemented with the -direct -txt method. That helps alleviate the ultra cramped inventory Blizzard likes to inflict players with.
Gambling is fun again. I usually try for rares, but occasionally I'm surprised to see a set or unique item pop up. That rarely happens online; I'm more likely to be hit by lightning.
