to be clear, mxl2017 IS using the new core, just not with all features promised (such as no corpse)

Am I understanding the changelog correctly though? Are there no immune monsters at all? The highest resistance is 70. Anyone ?

Monsters still have immunities (necrobots phys immune, etc) as normal. But monsters that don't have immunity to that element have a max of up to 70% resist, depending on which monster.

Changelog: Resistances of regular enemies (includes elites and Uber level regulars):
0 all on Hatred (Immunities unchanged)
0 physical/magical, 15 fire/cold/lightning and 5 poison on Terror (Immunities unchanged)
0 physical/magical, 35 fire/cold/lightning and 20 poison on Destruction (Immunities unchanged)
Resistances of Bosses on Destruction: (15-35)% physical/magical, (50-70)% fire/cold/lightning, (40-Immune)% poison

So, looks like as LH said, Bosses on Destruction will have a maximum of 70% fire/cold/lightning immunity. I assume this includes non-uber bosses such as Andy, Duriel, Mephisto, Diablo, Baal.

I am in love with the 0% Physical/Magical resistance of all non-boss enemies. Super hyped for tomorrow to try stuff out! Woo!

Super excited, can't contain my glee
Just wondering, as I've only played single player, on multiplayer
Is the only way to play via one of the Median XL servers? Can I not just host and my friend join via port forwarding?

You can play TCP/IP, but it'll still be with the SP patch, meaning no realm-only content.

So all I would be missing is the:
Secret uniques, runewords and sets
Cornerstone of the World can drop with uber skills, oskills and monster skills
as per the end of the patch notes

I'll have to see what my ping is to Germany, as that's my nearest server!

Thanks for the info though

Meh.

I applaud all the hard work the team put in, but I don't see anything that would get me to reinstall. Enjoy kids.
