This expansion brings fixes and new functions that are highly welcome in this already-great serie.
Let me tell you, Baal is a tough piece of work, especially if you chose to start over with one of the two new classes available.
The Assasin, a short haired lady that feels like a mix of a femme fatale and a female brutal killing machine, is a fun character if you like the female looks present in a game, and being bored of the Sorceress (how could you??)
The new lands feel less random, and the new monsters do not feel very new either, but nonetheless, they are, and those minor issues cannot weigh to the new extended story that is yet again amazing to go through.
Being able to wear two sets of weaponry is also a welcome addition.
I always felt that my sorceress should've had some nice sharp steel on her from time to time. And of course having more then two favorite spells is also (partly) solved by this.
The expansion outweighs the Bad by the Good, and to me, its enough to recommend ANYTHING.
