Soloing normal to hell; should I play single player or on bnet?
I decided to install the game again and I made a character on Battlenet. I have no intentions in playing with other people to be honest. I played Titan Quest offline completely and having found all my items myself felt pretty rewarding.
So anyway, I made my D2 character on Bnet and I noticed it's lagging a bit. Not like crazy much, but enough to be annoying, knowing I could be playing without it. I'm not really sure why I made the character online, I guess I just thought "why not? maybe I feel like playing with other people later".
So what's making me feel like starting over in single player is the /players 8 thing. In nightmare/hell I'm probably gonna have to do some boss runs to get some decent items to help me through the game, and from what I understand, setting players to 8 increases the boss loot greatly? Like... how much? And for exp, does it actually make it 8x the normal exp at the price of 8x the monsters normal health when soloing?
I guess I just made this thread to ask what you guys think. Should I start over in single player or is there any reason (aside from playing with others) why I should keep playing online?
