Easy Start Mod version 1.0 (for LoD 1.10)"Boss Torment"

Thanks for downloading this very large mod and I hope that you enjoy the animations and a slight change in appearance ofyour characters (Amazon, Necromancer,Druid, Sorceress, and Paladin). 
They have been changed in appearance to the following boss monsters:


Amazon = Cow King

Necromancer = Diablo

Paladin = Duriel

Sorceress = Andariel

Druid = Baal


This is of course a mod and is to be used at your own risk. I cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to your computer, software, or data. This is designed to be for fun, but some bugs may still be in mod, even though this has been tested all the way through act 5.

You will need to backup your old characters in your save folder under the Diablo 2 directory then erase old characters. 
New characters are needed to play this mod and see all the benifits from the start.


First backup up origional patch_d2.mpq to another directory in your diablo 2 directory, I use a folder called backup. Then install the Easy Start mod Patch file from zip to your diablo 2 directory.after this you are ready to play.

to remove just place origional patch file back in Diablo 2 directory and overwrite Easy Start mod patch.


This mod starts the characters with higher than normal stats and with a Soul Stone for creation of items, a jewel, and An Evil Force scroll for a weapon which gives a class specific skill bonus at start and can be upgraded with a jewel in the Soul Stone.
