An invitation to a private Diablo 2 server

[Sphinx]

Well it's an interesting debate for sure. First off, I barely classify D2 as an RPG. There are very few actual roleplaying elements in the game. If I was trying to describe d2 I might even say "a grinding fest of bosses". It's all about running things over and over again until the rng gods are kind enough to drop something. The maphack just makes it more comfortable and opens up some options to run. For instance, without maphack you would almost never do meph runs because the size of the Durance of Hate is just massive. The maphack allows you to run things like this efficiently which makes the game more open and interesting.

making the game so easy

I've never really seen D2 as a hard game. Unless it's the start of a ladder reset you don't die very often. Now, after countless hours farming, my hdin runs 2175 life, 86 fhr bp, 300 mf, 14k def, 15k damage hammers, max block. As I said, it's about grinding really, not the challenge (unless you're doing challenges like ironman).
