I've beaten this game several times, but for some reason this time I'm not getting the Leoric quest. I started over yesterday, assuming I'd just somehow missed him, but now I've made sure I'm on the right level (level 3, according to several sources) and I'm still not triggering the quest. I've cleared the level and found no sign of him, Ogden is not mentioning him, etc.
The only thing I can think of is that my system crashed awhile back and I had to reinstall everything. Am I missing a patch or something? I can't remember.
Does the Skeleton King quest have a 100% chance of happening? I know that the Butcher isn't 100%, but I'm not sure on the Skeleton King quest. When you're in the game, hit Esc. and click 'New Game'. Everything will be reset, so you'll have to start over at the level you are at and the gear you acquired.
All I know is that if you spawn the Butcher quest, you don't get Leoric. And if you get Leoric, you also usually get Lachdanan later (which is awesome, I love Veil of Steel!).
You play single-player, right? It's way harder to find him on multi-player games.
I was just thinking about playing this again.
I was, however, under the impression that certain quests were unavailable on MP games.
Is this true, or is it just significantly lower chance to trigger?

PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

No each quest has a chance of getting put in If the slain townsman is not there then you dont get the butcher quest, his lair will not be on level 2. Each time you start new in singleplayer you have a chance to get certin quests, while on multiplayer you only get Butcher, Leoric, Lazurus, and Diablo.

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask

When you start a new game on single player, go to the center of town where Cain is (at the well). If you see that the well is colored green, you have to start a new game b/c that indicates that the Leoric quest is not in your game. You are right to say that you can't get all quests in MP. In fact you can hardly get any quests in MP. Pretty much you just have the butcher, leoric (although you don't get the chamber of bone that he's normally in, he's just part of the level 3 dungeon in multiplayer), lazarus, and diablo. I always wanted the other quests in MP because it was much more fun playing with my brother.
Btw Leoric's crown is not worth the trouble it takes to kill him and his hordes. Do you tend to run and kite him away from his minions, or do you tend to take him down right away among his skeleton followers (Fire wall rocks here!).

King Leoric's quest only has a 50% percent chance of appearing; if you didn't get it, you got the //www.diablowiki.com/Poisoned_Water_Supply_(Diablo_I_Quest)">Poisoned Water Supply" class="wiki-link">//www.diablowiki.com/Poisoned_Water_Supply_(Diablo_I_Quest)">Poisoned Water Supply"/> Poisoned Water Supply instead. You need to start a new game to get it.
EDIT: In multiplayer you can only get the butcher, king leoric, lazarus and diablo quests.
No, not 100%! Perhaps 50%..
