yes I have realised it, instead of editing that post I have created new ones by mistake, can you please take care of it? thanks
yet another question about this particular part:

To accomplish these reworks it was necessary to drop character compatibility with previous patches.
D2SE and PlugY 10.00 still work. You will need to edit their .ini files to load MXL.dll.
Additionally, innate Mac compatibility had to be dropped. Sorry.


Now, I might be having some comprehension issues, but does this mean I need to make new characters or will my old ones still be fine?

You won't be able to play your old save files. Complete character wipe and stash wipe.

It has been explained that old characters will not work anymore under mxl 2017 release.

Can we expect a rework for ALL kinds of unique (inlucindg tiered), or just SU's and sets?

its not a complete rework, that will come in sigma, this is more of a fixing-items-as-per game now and getting rid of useless shit on many items and adding useful shits on many.. its too wide of a topic for me to write about it.

I've said it before already, but there will be no Runeword/Unique revamp until Sigma. Many of those items require the Sigma core features in order to work.

The items rework in 2017 involves changes to all items which feature stats mentioned in the Damage rework & Magic rework parts of the changelog + ported s13 balance changes + a few other minor tweaks.
