There used to be a list of which items drop for which class in the griswold gift box. Anyone know where I can find it?

1. Do I need to keep the statue you get in your inventory at the start (says "Welcome to Median" etc)?

2. Run vs Walk. Apparently u take more dmg when running (why? lol just slows the game down). Couple of questions:
If I am in Run mode and I stand still, does that count as walking?
Also, if I am in Walk and I use Ctrl to run, am I counted as running or walking for dmg purposes?


1. Statue is useless.
2. When you running your defense is set to 0 (95% chance to be hit) and block chance reduced to 1/3 effectivness. Just use ctrl to run and walk when fighting.
Thanks for clearing up the statue thing.


I don't think I explained my question very well re Run/Walk but from what u said it looks like the game doesn't care if I am standing still, if I have R/W toggle set to Run then my defnce is 0, whether I'm moving or not?

I use walk and Ctrl, but the problem is that I can't really reach Ctrl easily the way I have keybinds set up so I'd rather leave it set to Run and stand still to fight (but only if the game sees standing still as walking when it decides how much defence I have). Hope that makes sense.

25 FPS is the maximum that this game runs at, you're probs limiting your fps to 25 for some reason.

I also get more than 25 fps, actually no idea why you're getting that, I'm not sure if there's actually an option to limit fps in D2.
