Pre-made characters?

Hey. I was wondering if there were pre-made character packs available from anywhere. I'm going to a lan soon where some people have chars up to the end of Act 1 from a previous LAN, but others don't. I was wondering if I could just pick up some ready made, non hacked, standard chars of the right level from somewhere.

Thanks!

Re: Pre-made characters?

You can get to act 2 in normal in few hours (if you're new and you want to make all the quests then it can take a bit longer but still not too long) so I would just play until that. Skip quests 3, 4 and 5 as they're not mandatory. You can skip quest 2 as well if you don't need a mercenary for act 1 but I would do it as the rogue mercenary can be very helpful after you give her a bow. Quest 3 (saving Cain -quest) can be skipped as the cost of 100 gold pieces per identified item isn't much in the long run.

In single player there is also -act2/3/4/5 option (although it isn't supported by the sp trading community IIRC so no trading here if you use these) which makes your new characters to not start at level 1 and from act 1. For example -act 5 will make your new characters lvl 33 and they will start in a5 normal. It has the drawback that you can't really use waypoints since all the quests in previous acts are undone and the only waypoint you can use is the rogue camp in act 1. New characters will also be naked so you should have a friend who can give you some basic gear. If your friends are at act 1 nightmare this can be one way to play with them more quickly (although you'll need lot's of help from them in the beginning).

There is also this /players x command in-game which can help you to level up faster if your character can deal with stronger monsters. Usually normal can be tackled without too much trouble in /players 8 mode though.

Like Chromesto said, play new chars, its always more fun to have worked for your char all the way, once your around the last wp they can tag along for extra exp + help. :D
Lan a bit earlier then the others.

Thou I dont enjoy using it on lan (but mostly since people ruin the games by creating to epic stuff) A char editor (a singleplayer "hack") make a character around their level, add some random **** around their gear, or just add some gold and shop random gear, the stuff you get in act1 is more or less at the same value as the shop most of the time, then they can add stats/skills as they want, sadly they miss act1, but is in the game already (you can pick what waypoints/quests you want done and such)

EDIT: damn now I want to lan d2 with friends.. but most of my friends suck.. :( or dont enjoy a old good game

The WR for normal a1 to a5 done is around 57minutes, from lv1, untwinked & without help.

WR? If you mean that the record speed run is 57 minutes I'd imagine that it is heavily done by doing lot's of segments (and repeating each one many times) for a perfect run.
