Time for yet another patch for Diablo 2. Is this maybe the biggest change to the game, for you? Info: https://us.battle.net/forums/en/bnet/topic. Diablo II v1.14d Patch Sep 15 2016 Patch 2 comments. This is the latest official patch for Diablo II. Do not use this patch if you have Diablo II: Lord of Destruction installed (as it has a separate patch).

There are many different Mods available for Diablo II. While installing one of these might often be simple enough, removing the same mod or installing a new mod often causes problems. This is because most mods change many of the already existing game files, and they are often made for different patch versions of Diablo II as well. Many players however wish to have one or more mods installed at the same time, as well as a regular, or 'vanilla', installation of Diablo II intact so that they can play on Battle.net. This guide aims to explain how to do that.
