* the Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction expansion This is what you must have installed in order to play Median XL. It is a patch_d2.mpq mod (as opposed to an unpacked -direct -txt mod) which means installation is very easy. Median XL supports both PC and Mac computers. One unlocks reward skills and another unlocks a charm that you will upgrade later.Q: What do I need to get the mod running? Does it work with other mods and stuff? There are some really big power increases built into the leveling experience.
check the dungeons page so you know when to veer off and do them. I didn’t know these existed though until I tried a melee necro who’s builtin skill gives him a big buff. Sometimes it’s a good main skill, sometimes it enables other skills to flourish, and sometimes its not relevant to your build. characters have a basic skill that isn’t on the tree at all. I usually have one slot for honorific for fixing stats I don’t have other ways to get. honorific items are basically blank items you can artisinally craft with basic stats. There are lots of handy ones like unsocketing from non-runeword items or combining consumables into a single stack. I believe after that there are non-tiered unique items that can be build enabling which are found. Tiered uniques, honorifics and rune words. I’ve played to about 110 and up to that point my experience has been that almost all items should be crafted, not found. The base filter is fine but once you figure out the crafting stuff you want, you will need to update the filter grab D2Stats for MXL so you can use the loot filter. You should probably be using almost all tiered uniques or maybe some rune words from around level 20 until 100 when you find a skill you want to build around, look at tiered uniques. don’t pickup white items unless you need the base for crafting. I haven’t played 2.0 yet but these are my big takeaways from 1.6-1.8 As for the more advanced stuff, either check out the forums or maybe other people might help you. 
Don’t hesitate to use the guide to see all the tiered uniques, runewords, items, end game info and more. This made going through the game much much easier. Look up vendor recipes and it will tell you how to convert any non-unique into a “tiered unique” which can also be upgraded tot the next tier with an additional arcane crystal. Using the reveal map hot key will make quick work of this. Farm uniques from bosses in normal, either Andy and Duriel (which drops 1 unique each) or meph and nihl (which drops 2 uniques each) and convert them to arcane crystals. Each tier increases the stats quite a bit. Tiered uniques are unique items that can be upgraded from tier 1-4. One thing I wish I knew sooner was how strong tiered uniques were. As someone who is also brand new to the mod (Currently level 110), I struggled a lot trying to get through normal and nm.
