Diablo 2 Origins

So with all the useast server instability recently, I sought out for a private realm. This Server launched 4 hours ago so the ladders are fresh. Its free and just trying to spread the love.

What is Origins?

Diablo II Origins is a Private Server with the intentions to give players a place to play the way the game the way it was meant to be played. A server with a REAL economy. Imagine East or West with:
No Dupes
No Bots
No Realm Downs
No Scammers
NO STORES TO RUIN THE ECONOMY.
This is what this server is intended for. Origins will be heavily moderated to make sure everyone can have the experience they've always wanted from Diablo II. Remember the good old days where finding say, a Shako was actually worth feeling excited about? Being able to get rich from actually playing the game and MFing? Items being the currency, not duped runes. That's what we're aiming for. The nostalgic game that we were all addicted to so long ago. A perfected economy-based Diablo II.

Main Features
Increased Experience Gain in The Secret Cow Level, Throne of Destruction, and Chaos Sanctuary. This will be quite faster than leveling on Public Realms.
Undroppable items on Public Realms can now drop, such as 70/15 small charms and Bugged Tal-Rasha Armor.
Increased item level drops of Cows, Chaos Sanctuary, Mephisto, and Worldstone Monsters. These are all viable MF areas now. Freedom to MF wherever!
Sojs required to spawn Diablo Clone is 10, down from 80-100 on Public Realms.
You can now have 16 characters on each account, up from 8 on Public Realms.
You can now have 200 friends on your friend list, up from 25 on Public Realms.
Heavily Moderated at all times! Scammers or any attempt to ruin the economy will not be tolerated.
PvP Tournaments and Ladders in the future!
Constantly listening to the community, updating, and improving our Realm.


So if you check it out, please tell them "Onward" referred you when registering.
currently level 18 hardcore so if anyone needs anything hit me up Acct name: Zac

I am very interested, but how to acces the server? You have no link, no data, no nothing in your post :S

Well then don't let your server drop bugged items, and more importantly, don't ramp up the drop rates and don't increase the experience gain. The drop rates as they were meant you always had that carrot dangling in front of your nose and the XP rates meant that you always had that lvl 99 as a distant goal as a horizon. Change these factors, and you'll play for a couple of days, achieve what you wanted to and leave again, unaware of why exactly you're missing that feeling of achievement and fulfillment you initially went looking for.

It's kinda funny how all people with their modified server stats ramble on about how they "improve" the game and then can't fathom why their glorious projects ultimately crash and burn.

A very rarely seen stronger Version of Diablo, who drops the annihilus, one of the best items in the game.

D2 with not dupe-infested economy? Sounds too good to be true, but it's a diablo I've always wanted to try out. I guess I'll be reinstalling D2 today =D.

Btw I agree with shock, making game easier doesn't sound like a good idea.

i agree with this post. why allow bugged unintended items? or even any unintended changes by Blizzard? i doubt the OP has any control over this, id play if it was just the same game minus the dupes/bugs/exp changes

how many ppl are expected to play on this server? If it's like <100 players during peak time, I don't think I'd have as much enjoyment as I did in bnet, as great as this idea sounds with the non-hackers and such.

Great idea for the game. Those hackers and botters really ruined the whole economy on Battle.net. I downloaded this and might decide to play it in the future. But right now, there are just too few people on the server that I fear the server might just die out really quickly. I wouldn't want to waste my time on something too risky. I'll be checking in over the next few days as well to see how many people are on.

We really need to spread this around. Maybe someone can post it on the Diablo 3 forums or something?
Why do bad things happen to tasty people?

I'll take a look at this also. I don't have any diablo 2 licenses on my account and my CDs long lost, so I'll buy D2+LoD for this. Hoping the servers stay somewhat populated.

I've got a barb up to a whopping level 5. Delay is pretty high... where is this server located?

People should come play.
Ignorance is bliss because it means there's so much to learn.
