Does anyone use a Mac to run diablo?

Managed to get it installed and using Wineskin with it "ran" it successfully (vanilla version, no mod or plugins) with colorful boxes and then it turned black and unresponsive (but the music was still playing).
* Shouldnt be a problem with graphics card or anything.

If anyone can show me what they use or what specs on Wineskin or anything that'd be great!

I used to play d2 on a mac without any windows emulation no problem, but that was a long time ago and d2 might not be compatible with newer OS.
Colorful boxes and black screen sounds like video issues, so if you have any launcher settings try different video options.

I did the same thing with my merc, just an honorific 2h sword and socket items / MO items with +total char def or +str (%) (or as Jaedong suggested, lifeleech and enhanced dmg)
and he does a lot of damage for a merc and barely dies; any +max resist or all resist is good too

What's your favourite character/build for farming sewers? I want to get around to making a natascha and would like an efficient build if I'm going to farm that much. Thanks!

My fav. one is a cold + fire/light sorceress. Use ice meatshields to cover you and spam abyss and tempest/flamefront against cold immunes and you'll be fine. 1 full run will take 10-20 minutes.

Some people were saying that a werewolf was surprisingly good at farming Sewers too...
