Here is some help for you guys, that just have begin playing Single Player and have starting-questions..!

Install Rwm and Rrm... Its "RuneWordMod".. That's allow you to use ladder-runewords on SP. Its allowed at many forums like here! Spirit and Insight r always sweet things, isn't it? Rrm stands for "RedRuneMod" Sometimes when u, for an example, do some cowruns, its sometimes hard to see the runes, so with this mod, the runes appairs to be "red" when they drops.. That's sweet Like when u do "lk-runs" "Lower Kurast" "Hunting for superchests to get that ber and sur! Here is a link to the mods: http://www.twilightdesert.com/d2/mods.html

Enough talking about mods.. Another nice thing to use, when u play SP, is Atma-muleprogram.
That allow you to mule to specific "stashes" Really simple to learn and use.. That's the heaven on SP! To save your items at a stash.. I got myself a stash with over 1800items right now, since my restart at late april..
With atma, you can also use the dropcalculator.. If your in need of any item, maybe, we say "Gull" The dagger with 100mf.. U search for it, and it says, some boss down at "The Cave lvl2" Also be sure u insert the amount mf u use and "p-settings"

About "p-settings".. This is some other sweet thing with SP.. "p-settings" allows you to simulate the game to let the monster have more life, dmg and you get more exp and lvl faster! Its like a full 8player-party at a baalrun in hell, for an example.. This also increase the droprates from monsters! Like Pindle.. I always do pindle on highest player-setting...
To use p-settings, just put in: /players (1-8) As for me at pindle in hell: /players 8
You dont always get nice stuff of this, but the chance increase alot!

About bosses with p-settings.. Mephisto in NM/Hell is not necessary to play at /players 8.. And you wonder why maybe o.O That depends on, that the droprate on single bosses, dont effect so much.. So /players 3 is really enough ^^ I always do Meph, andy on /players 1

Well, i hope this really did get you some hints and stuff about SP!

About a nice char to start with on SP..

Fishymancer is always a nice starter.. Sure, u can't tele, like with a sorc, but u can easy do norm/nm and even hell.. Your skele-army will kill everything, on its way^^ The the name fishymancer comes from.. CE..

CE stands for Corpse Explosion.. U "fish" dead corpses with CE when you at the same time kill monsters with your army..

Some other nice char to start with, is a blizzballer..

That's a dualsorc.. Fireball and blizzard..
So you can handle the immunes.. The thing with the sorc, is clearly, "tele" Duuh!
When u put out skills on this lady, 20p fireball, 20p meteor.. 20p glacier spikes and 20p blizzard.

Anyway -.- GL! And be sure to ask, if u got more questions.. ^^

What is this p-setting that you speak of?A mod?Sounds like an intresting idea to make it a little harder and to say rack up on exp.

works on single player by typing " /players X "
it's to simulate X number of people in the game. great for drops/experience.
and it's not a mod =)

Sorry for the spam but this really is bugging me ... You do not "fish" corpses. The writer of the guide is Nightfish. That's why it's called a Fishymancer.

well this really isnt the right question to ask for this thread but, would a fire druid do good or would the fire immunes screw him over?as a starter char..

As a starter, I think you can try Fishymancer :)

He's easy to play.

Nope, as the patches have come out, ATMA has been updated right up to the latest patch (thanks Doc).

atma is used to keep a bigger stash right. so i can free up room and xfer from sp character to character.

I was just wondering if anybody is using this RWM with vista, because i installed both, and the runes show up red, but when i tried making spirit, it didnt work. If anybody has any suggestions i would appreciate it.

kalenjder

you can find a dropcalc in atma. go to utility --> drop calc and click on the patch you play.

Very good guide, I started up SP and I have the mods you recomended and its fun. Also I never realy had time to watch the story mode sections of the game due to being rushed too fast. :)

When I Export an item in ATMA it creates a file I can Import to an other char... Can I delete that file after I Imported it?

yes. although i don't see why you need to export the files to transfer to other characters.. you can just drag and drop items from mules/stashes to your characters..

Nice... I didn't know that! :) I'll try that! Thx!

EDIT: How do you make that unlimited-stash-char in ATMA?

Just wondering

How much Monster HP Increment for players 4~8 mode?

Each additional player adds .5 life and experience (plus you get 1 for your player)

players 2 = 1.5 HP
players 3 = 2 HP
players 4 = 2.5 HP
players 5 = 3 HP
players 6 = 3.5 HP
players 7 = 4 HP
players 8 = 4.5 HP

Thanks for posting this wallenburg, i already use atma... but i didn't know about the rune mods. they should help out quite a bit... i dont know how many times i've heard those things drop and i could never find them. Thanks for the short bit of info on the two classes... might try out the sorc after i get bored with my bone necro ;)
