This patch also added unique id so most of the duped and hacked items were removed all permed mass-duped items come from 1.09 and earlier patches, when items didn't have id and every copy was permanent (would not disappear). It added ability to purchase Mana Potions from vendors, Uber Diablo ( Annihilus), new Horadric Cube recipes (creating Zod-bugged items) and ability to register account to email. 1.10 (2003) introduced the first Ladder, skill synergies, made reaching level 99 harder, added the most powerful runewords like Enigma and Ladder-only items, which made mercenaries very powerful: Infinity, Insight, Faith etc. 1.09 (2001) altered properties of many items, producing a wide selection of 09 legacy items. It introduced level requirement for Ancients quest and many popular 08 legacy items which can still be purchased today. 1.08 (2001) buffed runes, items and their drop rates. Most of the pre-LOD legacy items come from this patch, like rare boots with stats that can't spawn anymore (20% FHR, Str, 50 res). New mechanics included skill cooldowns, weapon switch and much more immune monsters on Hell, which made them more challenging. It added Act 5, Druid & Assassin, bigger stash, runes & first runewords, charms, jewels and exceptional/elite set/unique items. 1.07 (2001) was released with Lord of Destruction (LOD) expansion. They addressed connection and server stability issues. 1.01-1.06 were released shortly after Diablo 2 launch in the year 2000. We listed only the biggest, most important game changes. Every patch changed some mechanics, fixed bugs and duping methods, balanced monsters, items and class skills.
