Hey there guys. I just got back into diablo, finally got all the mods and versions to run with plugy and everything else. I'm stoked! But I also am leaving for Alaska in a few days for a job, be gone all summer and have no access to internet. I was wondering if there was a suppository of information of sorts, builds and guides and information on all things median, that I could have access to OFFLINE. Any help would be appreciated!

I did this a few years ago. I just downloaded all the item and quest documentation pages with right click > save as, it works well enough.

Also, I think you might have meant "repository". I really hope there is not a suppository of Median information out there :-8

IMHO, unholy caster paladin is the easiest paladin to play, and melee holy is the hardest. There are many guides about unholy caster paladin, but I recommend one by Scarlet Edge, which incorporates fire skills from gear later on instead of using mind flay or other skills. ]
Here is the link: https://forum.median-xl.com/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=17813
It's really detailed and helps from start to finish.

how so? I looked at the patch logs, but only 1.3 and 1.2 are available. 1.1 and 1.0 give 404 not found messages.
https://www.median-xl.com/changelog used this page's links to access the patch notes
EDIT: nvm they worked

Hi, basically new to the mod, have been playing for about a week. Currently at Act 5 Terror but I die a lot using a spearzon. Seems like I covered the basics and the next step I should do is to farm shrines and craft items...however my killspeed in fauntizville??? is abysmal...here are my questions

1. anywhere i could go to farm shrines quicker?
2. is hyena strike useful? walking up to the orb seems a hassle

you just need to step on one every few seconds after/before the duration goes off . having 20-ish points into it in mid game grants a decent duration so steping on one of them every now and then is not hard at all . when you know that the duration is about to go off , stop whatever you was doing , go for the orb , then go back to the fight . you might just need more practice , that's all .
