Are you bored, wanting more of a challenge, or just to poor to keep up with bnet dueling and game play???

Take a look at this private realm, here are some quick notes about it...

- It's for D2 v1.12a

- Hundred and hundreds of new items, runewords, and sets.

- 113 runes, for all sorts of needs. Check out http://realmvenom.com/?id=runes for more details.

- 13 Soul Stones, they are a cross between runes and jewels. Used for dueling. Want a preview of what these are? Go to http://realmvenom.com/?id=soulstones

- You are allowed to make suggestions, it more than likely will be added, or a tweaked version of it added.

- New patches released frequently, when I say that I mean it. No not like daily, more like weekly or every other week. How else do you think we get those suggestions included in our version of the game?

If I still have your attention and you want to try it out, feel free to. As a matter of fact, we CHALLENGE you to!

My staff and current players will help you if you need it. We actually have a close knit group of players started on this game that are eager to help new players.

For those of you who don't know me, I played D2 for more years than I can count.

When I played, I was an active vLLD'er.

Because I have a strong background in LLD'ing and some in MLD/HLD, I have been able to add in many dueling related items into my realm.

We have LLD sets, runes, soulstones are actually made for dueling.

If you are someone who doesn't have a lot of time to play, I hold contests. Most just cause you to pick a number.

Then I give out prizes to 10 of the 50 or w/e. Heck I have given out prizes to all people who participate most of the time.

Personally I know how hard it is sometimes when you start out.

Because this is an LLD community and I've been on this site for years, nearly 4 to be exact...

I will help out anyone from this site. I will give you some starting gear.

I will check with my coding team to see if we can setup times for rushes.

But to get this bonus, just PM me on this site. Not my site, because I don't want you to feel it's required.

DO NOT SEND ME YOUR PASSWORD!!!

Your account hold 18 characters, leave atleast 1 open slot for me. I will put a toon on it with gear.

If you ask in your pm that you'd like to have a toon rushed, I will try to rush it. Just leave me the Toon name.

I will rush it, I don't need your password to do it, as I am an Administrator, I can move the character to my account, rush it and move it back to yours.

If you need to view eGS (eGameSource) forums for trading or anything you will have to register on there. But if you don't want to and you have questions you can PM me on here, I'll try my hardest to answer all the questions I can as quickly as I can.

This sounds very interesting, I'm going to look over the changes and consider it. I'll try to talk some friends into it as well (since I only play this game now because of them)

One major question, is it possible to go back to a bnet realm after you set venom up? I've never played on a private server,s o this is kind of new to me

Most D2 mods that you will come across are not for 1.12a. because of this they are not setup to go back to bnet easily. That is one of the reasons we scrapped are old patch and upgraded to 1.12a. Once 1.13 comes out we probably will upgrade to that as well. If I am able to do it.

I DLed your mod, and the Bnet gateway editor. I am able to add new gateway info successfully and all, but it doesn't come up in D2 gateway choices.

Am also use an iMac, I don't know if that affects anything...but I have Crossover that opens the Windows files just fine, so...?

RV has been around for years, I kept it private for my old clan... We used to test things out on it.

I made it public over a year ago.

I doubt many mods would act like we do.... But then again i don't play other mods. lol.... we've done alot of stuff to it.

Realm Venom is actually quite different from other mods. The look and feel are quite different but not too different so that it doesn't take away from what you are used to. Most of the popular areas are now expanded such as cows, ancients way, throne, chamber and more. Cows is about 50 times larger, and has MANY more cows in it just to start.

This mod is much more challenging with more items, sets, runewords and just about anything else.

For all of the HCL people out there that would like a start, you can pm me as a start point. I am usually available to get your first char ready to go. I am a coder for this realm and would like to hear some opinions about the owrk our team does. Criticisms are always welcome too. How do you think we make it better?

Intriguing....I may give this a try with a friend.

I might be joining as well, and bring a friend with me. How much different is MFing? It sounds like MFing is easier but not sure. I guess i am interested but i do not like MFing at all, just want to duel but you have to find stuff as well. Is D2loader allowed or is this still monitored by bnet? I like being able to rush my own chars and transfer without the chance of loosing things.

This is not modded by bnet at all. Mfing can be done, but can also be abit more difficult. As stated before, this is d2 with muscle Smile

We do allow 3rd party programs, and even have some uploaded to the realm venom website. Read up on the OP's weblinks and give it a try Smile
