The Good Ol' Days :) When good rares were often a lot better than most uniques. Sigon's Guard was one
of the best shields with it's +1 to all skills and 74% block (for pally). When sets and uniques were easily
gambled. Back then, the game played a little more like D1 - the goal was to find THE uber blue (or yellow)
item for your chatacter. At least there was originality, now people all have the same high-end uniques.
I remember the tiny stash and the rarity of gems, no repair-all button, uber WW and CE, minion's life
scaling with people in the game, and almost useless mercs, that you couldn't equip, give potions or change acts. It changed so much ! :P

An elegant weapon for a more civilized time. For over a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times, before the Empire.
