How do I make it so that the player levels up quickly? I know that it has more to do with monsters.txt than levels.txt, I just don't know exactly what to do. Please help.

You could do a multiply (in D2Excel, right click on column header and select Multiply) on the experience columns for Normal, NM and Hell. Not sure what the hirelings have there, but if they have something other than 0 you better change it back for them or you'll probably get a crash. Hirelings don't like being changed in monstats.txt ('Hey boss, I'm no monsta!').

u can get really crazy with this and add 65535 rows to experience.txt make each lvl take like 5 exp hehe but that would just be lame, any way if you want to make lvlin faster and dont make monsters harder, open experience.txt and do all the rows /2 and you char will only need half exp per lvl

Maybe I phrased that wrong. What I want to do is make it so that the player gains levels faster without changing anything about the monsters or experience. I thought it could be done by changing monster levels, but I don't know how to do it right.

For example, in Ancestral Recall, you can gain 11 levels in Blood Moor alone. Instead of maybe 4 in D2.

That's the kind of thing I want to do, but I want to do it through the whole game. Basically a steady level gain from Bloor Moor to Baal.

Now, can anybody tell me how to do that?
