CHEAT.
Okay I used to cheat all the time in video games, and if savestates are counted as such, then still guilty. My ass grew up with the game genie, and some of those older titles were punishing without lives.
Anywho I started playing a Hammerdin in Diablo 2, it's pretty much the easy mode class to play, and since I hadn't touched D2 is about 2 years, I went with that. One point in the game, the maggot lair, your build is rendered useless, due to it being underground tunnels big enough for one person.
So the Paladin's hammers can't spin out and clobber enemies. My solution? Download a trainer and make my pally a melee character JUST to clear this one hurdle then switch back.
See otherwise my build would be bricked, since you need to go inside and nab an item behind enemies. I'm playing classic Diablo so there's no runewords for teleport. So the next best thing is to sadly break my anti-cheating vows.
Do I really care? No it's just a goofy video game.
