Your characters must have completed Diablo II’s four acts before they may enter the new Act V, which begins in the city of Harrogath, located somewhere up in the frozen North. Or is it? The disc version requires installation of the original game and invites you to either import your original characters, or to create new ones. Lord of Destruction is but an expansion pack to Diablo II that offers the same type of hack-and-slash action.
We vanquished Mephisto and Diablo himself, but Baal, the last of the Prime Evils, remained unscathed. We ventured through these areas in which lurked Diablo’s Soulstone-mates – Mephisto, The Lord of Hatred, and Baal, The Lord of Destruction. In Diablo II, Blizzard expanded their fantasy world into four new regions, each with numerous quests and friendly NPCs, each with a vast wilderness populated by scores of little demons. Finally, in June 2000, Diablo II erupted onto the shelves to enormous popularity. The announcement of its sequel was all the rave, resulting in an almost unprecedented number of pre-orders.
You need a fairly sturdy character to make it outside the new town in Act V.
