Changes

When starting your first character in Diablo II, you will automatically have a character starting on 'Normal'' difficulty setting. This difficulty setting dictates monster hit points, damage, immunities etc. It's mathematically impossible for a starting character to play in any difficulty setting than Normal, even if it was possible. When a character kills [[Diablo]], he can then continue to the [[Nightmare]] difficulty, playing the game again. When Diablo is vanquished on Nightmare setting, a last testament on [[Hell]] difficulty can start.

Normal [[item]]s are made with grey text, and does not have any [[magic]]al properties. They are only used early in the game, or in order to make [[socket]]s or [[runewords]]. More information can be found on the [[item quality]] page.
