Ahh my desk and pc room is in shambles,hardware everywhere,cups,food wrappers it needs to be clean.
However,Im on my way thru diablo 2 for the 3rd time with the paladin,and sadly i got killed in the catacombs,So what would you guys do?Clean up the awful mess or just say fux it and go and retrieve my paladins rotting corpse? :) possibly bulding a bigger mess in the process.

Do you really need to ask this question? My room is a hole within a hole, sure, i think about cleaning it and all but not as long as I have a UT or D2 icon on my desktop.

I thought you didn't lose your stuff when you died in D2? I remember that happened in D1, what a pain!

no u just lose the gold you were carrying,however getting back to your corpse isnt an easy task,you gotta put on the best stuff you have stored,or just run down there naked,to try to avoid the things that just killed you and retrieve your corpse:cool:i got a plan tho,i got killed by these big horned demon(similar looking to the barons in DOOM)but they shoot lighting,i gotta couple skill points to waste so im going to put lighting resist on my paladin and then its chopping time:cool:

D2 now, before battlenet becomes hopelessly laggy-as it seems to do every evening now.

I for one, liked death in D1 better-you HAD to get back to your corpse to retreive your stuff or it was gone forever. None of this "start a new game & your corpse is in town" stuff-that's too bogus. The D1 way really stressed coop playing and having friends or guildmates to bail you out in a tough spot.

Didn't they reduce the power of corpse explosion a few patches ago? I used it on the unpatched version, and it was POWERFUL. You could take out stuff super quick. That and the Barbarian skill Whirlwind are room clearing skills.

Clean the mess then play D2. You'll be happier with a clean room.

<<Necro baby!! >>

No way, the necro army tends to get in the way of everything.

Go with paladin and the fire aura. It's fun to get to nightmare lvl and then go back to normal and hit the cold plains and have everything drop dead within a huge radius from that aura. :p

When I played... especially with a friend or something, when you die, I think the money you carry goes to the other person. That's what we noticed... we kept having to give the money back to each other. And even if you store your money in your chest, once you pick it up after dying, you lose the money you were supposed to lose if you had enough.

Two words...Intravenous and Colostomy Bag.

No mess to clean, never have to leave the screen.
