Bashiok has just made a post asking fans of Diablo II to chime in on what they would really like to see included in the upcoming 1.13 patch. This is a good chance for all of you to let Blizzard know exactly what you'd like to see, so be sure to head on over to the official Battle.net thread and share your ideas! Here's the official news post:
"We're in the process of working on Diablo II content patch 1.13, and we want to try to include the Diablo community's most important changes in our production schedule. To achieve this we're asking for your input on what you'd like to see in this patch. However, we're making it a bit stricter than a full-blown wish list.
If you were to get an advance look at the patch notes for Diablo II 1.13, what is the one patch note you would want to see?
Our goal is to get an overall sense of the single most important request from every member of the community. We want as many posts as we can get for the largest cross section, so if you have friends who used to play Diablo II or just don't frequent the forums as much as you do, let them know this is here so we can get their '#1 patch note' too.
Please be mindful that we're not going to be able to make every change mentioned, but hopefully with your feedback we can prioritize and do our best to cover as much as possible.
I wouldn't mind seeing the much speculated-upon "Adria Patch" come into being, wherein she bestows, in Act IV, two additional quests which serve, if I am remembering correctly, as a tie-in to Diablo III.
anyway..since it is not im posting mine here cuz i don't know my cd key to log on haha
I agree with Anakyn. I want to see lore content. A few new quests would be amazing.

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.

Even if one takes every reefer madness allegation of the prohibitionists at face value, marijuana prohibition has done far more harm to far more people than marijuana ever could
Hmmm. Content Patch, huh? I'm wondering if additional quests is even being considered as an include in the patch. I think the mention of some sort of tie in with Diablo III is a good idea. I might actually click the lonesome little D2 icon on my shortcut bar again come the release of 1.13.
I think an additional quest or two is probably not a bad idea. One or two really difficult quests
This is REALLY awesome......Personally I think the main things they need to address are nutty hacks like ttpk and AA, secondly they need to nerf the hell outta paladins(smiters and hdins mainly) and of course shared stash(probably will never happen)
Adria appears in act 4 after some type of cubing. She gives you a few quests and finally you figure out in the last quest that she is actually Lilith and the quests you have done for her have made her immeasurably strong, the final quest involves killing Lilith or something that leads into D3. *crosses fingers* I would like to see it involve the standard of heroes as well.
Hmm. Maybe I should actually utilize that b.net account of mine and actually post something...
took me 20 mins of closet hell to find a cd key ><
i'm covered in dust now but at least i had my say (step up on anticheating measures)

they'll never see me coming.. life is a sequence of tragedies, inconsistent only by fleeting, elusive moments of pleasure,
serving only to ensure absolute vulnerability to the pain of their inevitable absence.
Yeah, I'm sure that suggestion is going to catch their attention over at Blizzard HQ.
I don't know how serious of a patch this is though. I mean, something along the lines of 1.10 sounds like a little too much, but content patch still means more than balance fixes. Another patch like 1.11 and Chaos Tristam then perhaps?

Iron Maiden needs to be nerfed. It ruins all Hand to Hand char builds in my opinion.
The bug caused by Torches wielded by Hand to Hand Characters causing the game to crash should be fixed. Or just remove the fire bonus that causes the crash. Nobody uses Torches for the fire anyway.
Teliport should stay (even in Enigma) but even a 2-3 second cool down period with teliport could help restore some game balance. This way you could use it to get out of danger, and some quick moving, but you couldn't use it to run quests without getting hit pretty badly in the process.
So many things...new content would of course be awesome; but I think I speak for most when I say get rid of the hacking and dupes. That's what totally ruined the game for me. I imagine they might do a lead in to the D3 storyline; but got to remember that it's 20 years after D2.
I got a good one; how bout put out the D3 Blizzcon demo instead of doing the patch!!!
Lore tie ins to Diablo 3 via new quests, new elite uniques and rune words (/w balancing of preexisting items), and most importantly the one thing that can make D2 ladder fun again....crack down on hacks,duping, and out of game currency(fg). Hopefully one of these may happen, I'm not terribly concerned over shared stash/increased item storing.

How is d2 runewords at all relevent to d3? Runewords are in place in d2 so its viable to see more added, but not really needed.

So let's hear your thoughts! If you could have just one thing included in the patch, what would it be?
