Hi!
I guess you might have experienced what they usually call 'bad luck'!
Until I stopped playing LoD six months ago, and re-installed DII 1.06,
I found some of the following: (excerpt)
- all runes up to UM, LUM and PUL frequently, furthermore some ISTS, and I think even o n e BER...
- many good Uniques, including Windforce, Veil of Steel, Arreat's Face, Heaven's Light,Bartuc's Cut-Throat, Firelizard's Talons, Templar's Might, The Oculus and many more...
- enough gems to choke on them...
- back in the days when they were good: several really godly rares, even a few dual leech rings...
- many nice set items; a full set was really hard to obtain due to the lack of trading/ twinking in SP (Win XP + LoopbackAdapt. wasn't available to me a long time)...
Me too has bought the game when it came out. Me too has played it more than I should have. I just lately went back to 1.06 to make a FO sorceress that would finally fill the screen with them with fast cast again. I don't mean to bragg, but I don't think SP is hard at all! It may well not be as easy as battle.net, and maybe some folks that are used to it could think SP is hard. But if you get used to it, it really gets easy!
And, if your chars get stronger and stronger, you may follow Shadows advice and try out the players x command. I wouldn't advise for players 8 in all cases, though. Monsters can get very tough then, this is for the strongest chars only.
What I mean to say is: Cheer up!
Greetings, Fragbait
