Power Leveling is the act of leveling one's character in the quickest, most efficient manner possible. By knowing which locations give the most experience and the mechanics involved in gaining experience, players can level very quickly without cheating or exploiting bugs. These guidelines should be suitable for most classes and builds:

• Keep in mind you need a FULL key set. Meaning you need both Classic and Expansion keys for this bot to work. They are NOT provided and they MUST be working keys if you wish to use this bot on public battle.net servers. Diablo II/Diablo 2 must be installed and it MUST be on version 1.14d.
• The leaderboards are once again plagued with cheaters and we would respectfully like to request a ban wave. Many of us legitimate players are becoming increasingly frustrated that little is being done about the blatant cheating that has become a new standard among the top tier community. Botting and 3rd party software like TurboHud are ruining the competitive aspect of this game and should not.

Diablo 2 - Act 2 - Town. Diablo II Automation. Started at 10-12 years old with AutoIt bots that moved based on the pixels on the screen; then at 15 got more complicated with an AutoIt OCR (which I'll cover in another article later) that helped me pickup nice items; around 17 moved onto C# bots that no longer used pixels, instead read/wrote.

General Guidelines:

• Players should always try to accomplish these steps in full games since the amount of experience increases per player in the game.
• Asking a higher level character to help clear areas may be better if their speed makes up for the level penalty.
• Melee players may get their weapons (and mercenary's weapons) Enchanted by a Sorceress to provide a dps boost.
• Gain access to areas by having higher level characters share waypoints. Some areas will require the completion of quests to advance.
• Don't put yourself at risk of death in Nightmare and Hell since the penalty on death is 5% and 10% respectively. This is particularly important for Hardcore players as well, for obvious reasons.
• Hunt for Experience Shrines in different Acts (act 1 usually is the easiest) as you get 50% more experience while it is active, but be careful not to get too close to any monster that can curse you such as unique monsters with the 'Cursed' status, Oblivion Knights, or Baal himself as curses override any active shrine bonus.

Stages:

• Level 1 - 15: Repeatedly clear Tristram.
• Level 15 - 24: Clear Tal Rasha's Tombs in the Canyon of the Magi.
• Level 24: Complete Rite of Passage.
• Level 25 - 40: Repeatedly clear the Chaos Sanctuary and Baal.
• Level 40: Complete Rite of Passage (nightmare difficulty).
• Level 41-60: Repeatedly clear the Chaos Sanctuary and Baal (nightmare difficulty).
• Level 60: Complete Rite of Passage (hell difficulty).
• Level 61-95: Repeatedly kill Baal (hell difficulty).
• Level 96-99: Advanced High leveling techniques^[1] (hell difficulty).

Kolton Bot Latest Version Working 1.14D + MH

Download Link:https://github.com/kolton/d2bot-with-kolbot

How to start:

Diablo 2 Bots 1.14

Step 1: Downloading the bot

Diablo 2 Bot Download

Download Tortoise SVN: Tortoise SVN Download
Install Tortoise SVN
Create a new folder (usually on desktop to make it easier to find and access) Name it whatever you like (kolbot works) Then right click the folder and go to 'SVN Checkout' Where it says 'URL of repository' Paste in this link https://github.com/kolton/d2bot-with-kolbot/trunk Then click 'OK' to start the SVN checkout process (downloading the bot files) You cannot paste this link https://github.com/kolton/d2bot-with-kolbot/trunk in your address bar and download the bot! YOU MUST USE TORTOISE SVN and the CHECKOUT PROCESS!
It has also been brought to my attention that the newer versions of Tortoise SVN are not allowing the checkout link to work or error out. I suggest an older version like this one (1.9.7.27907) and DO NOT update so that you can download the bot from the source Tortoise SVN
Once this process is done it should say something like 'Completed At Revision ****' The revision number will change as new versions are released as long as no errors occur continue on.
You must download and install the dependencies for the bot:
.Netframework download
VC++ 2008 download
VC++ 2010 download
If you receive or see an error that says 'You have a higher version installed' or something similar then you can skip that download/install

Step 2: Adding your cd keys

Diablo 2 Bots 2019 Download

Keep in mind you need a FULL key set. Meaning you need both Classic and Expansion keys for this bot to work. They are NOT provided and they MUST be working keys if you wish to use this bot on public battle.net servers. Diablo II/Diablo 2 must be installed and it MUST be on version 1.14d
Find your folder we just made and used the SVN checkout process with I used Kolbot as name of my folder. Inside the folder you need to find 'D2Bot.exe' Right click on this program and go to 'properties' then go to 'compatibility' If you are using Windows 8 or 8.1 you need to use the check box that reads 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' Then click the drop down menu and select 'Windows XP Service Pack 2' EVERYONE on any windows needs to check the checkbox that reads 'Run this program as Administrator' Then click the 'Apply' button. Lastly Click the 'OK' button.
Now try to run 'D2Bot.exe' It should open without errors.
Find the 'Keys' button and click it.
There are different ways to add keys. I will list the most used ones here. You do not need to use multiple methods for the same key. Choose one method per cd key set.
1. Manual addition of keys- Click in the text box that has a + sign next to it and type whatever name you would like for this keyset. This name is for the bots identification purposes and does not affect the game. Next click the 'Name' text box this name WILL be shown in game for the name if someone tries to use these keys and gets the 'In use by key name' error. Put any name you like in this field. Next copy and paste or type out each of your classic and expansion keys in the next two text boxes labeled as 'Classic' and 'Expansion' Then click the 'Apply' button. Then click the 'ok' button.
2. Adding .mpq file keys- This is primarily used if you create cd key files via the key creator or you made them with Etal etc. To use your .mpq files you must place them in the Diablo II folder you are going to use for this bot. Ex: ImageThen we will find the 'Keys' button and click it. Click in the text box that has a + sign next to it and type whatever name you would like for this keyset. This name is for the bots identification purposes and does not affect the game. Next click the 'Name' text box. This is where we place the name of the .mpq file we copied over to our diablo 2 folder earlier. The file names must match exactly! EX: d2key1.mpq Leave the 'Classic' and 'Expansion' sections blank. Click 'Apply' and then click 'OK'.
3. Use the cd key set that was used with your Diablo II install. If you installed your copy of Diablo II using your OWN keys or keys that WORK and you want to use those... wait until a later step and I will show how to do this method. (Easiest method/Most dangerous method).
