Hmmm... DR cap is 50%... Lifeleach doesnt work in pk anymore.

Mainstream pk chars [sorry if i left some out]:

-Wind druid
-Sorceress [fireball or blizzard or orb or chain lightning]
-necromancer [bone skills]
-hammerdin, foh, smite, zeal, charge
-bow zon, charged strike zon
-trap asn

There are many more but those are the normals these days.

There are unique charms now [anihilhus and gheeds] - they rock.

most hacked items = gone

runes are duped up the :hbut and most arent permed [the high ones at least]

items are very expensive and runewords own the trading world

skill gcs with life are worth hell of a lot

ladder seasons are going on

hmm...

I did some research just for you... here is the v1.10 readme/changes from the dii.net website.

Alright, thanks guys, also, I seen a thread about upgrading runes. Could anyone maybe tell me about how its done?

check out Arreat summit, they have a section in there that tells the horadric cube recipes, infact, I'll give you the list here:

3 El Runes -> 1 Eld Rune
3 Eld Runes -> 1 Tir Rune
3 Tir Runes -> 1 Nef Rune
3 Nef Runes -> 1 Eth Rune
3 Eth Runes -> 1 Ith Rune
3 Ith Runes -> 1 Tal Rune
3 Tal Runes -> 1 Ral Rune
3 Ral Runes -> 1 Ort Rune
3 Ort Runes -> 1 Thul Rune

3 Thul Runes + 1 Chipped Topaz = Amn Rune
3 Amn Runes + 1 Chipped Amethyst = Sol Rune
3 Sol Runes + 1 Chipped Sapphire = Shael Rune
3 Shael Runes + 1 Chipped Ruby = Dol Rune

The following Rune upgrade formulae will only work for Single-Player, Open, or Ladder Characters. They will not work for Normal Characters on the Realms.
3 Dol Runes + 1 Chipped Emerald = Hel Rune
3 Hel Runes + 1 Chipped Diamond = Io Rune
3 Io Runes + 1 Flawed Topaz = Lum Rune
3 Lum Runes + 1 Flawed Amethyst = Ko Rune
3 Ko Runes + 1 Flawed Sapphire = Fal Rune
3 Fal Runes + 1 Flawed Ruby = Lem Rune
3 Lem Runes + 1 Flawed Emerald = Pul Rune
2 Pul Runes + 1 Flawed Diamond = Um Rune
2 Um Runes + 1 Topaz = Mal Rune
2 Mal Runes + 1 Amethyst = Ist Rune
2 Ist Runes + 1 Sapphire = Gul Rune
2 Gul Runes + 1 Ruby = Vex Rune
2 Vex Runes + 1 Emerald = Ohm Rune
2 Ohm Runes + 1 Diamond = Lo Rune
2 Lo Runes + 1 Flawless Topaz = Sur Rune
2 Sur Runes + 1 Flawless Amethyst = Ber Rune
2 Ber Runes + 1 Flawless Sapphire = Jah Rune
2 Jah Runes + 1 Flawless Ruby = Cham Rune
2 Cham Runes + 1 Flawless Emerald = Zod Rune

Next time you really need anything, check out blizzards official D2 site.

Edit: Formulae acquired from the Arreat Summit

3 Ko Runes + 1 Flawed Sapphire = Fal Rune
3 Fal Runes + 1 Flawed Ruby = Lem Rune
3 Lem Runes + 1 Flawed Emerald = Pul Rune

Well, the game has changed a lot since 09, the new patch made char creation more specialized with the synergies.

Generally, with items, the new runewords are what peeps are striving for rather than the elite unique items.

My suggestion would be to make an MF char and get some mules and nice items then start making some chars based upon the strat guides on the site.

I've been to many Diablo 2 forums and read other peoples strat's and these here are the best guides around on the whole.

BTW- let us know where your playing [east, west ect...]
