My goal in this challenge is to make you play the character you've always wanted to invest a lot of time in, but make it just slightly harder, and make you set goals. In this challenge, I hope you are able to enjoy yourself, yet still feel a sense of difficulty - as that is where the true excitement of Diablo II is
