Looking for guide to current patch game mechanics

[:1]I've been playing a LONG time, but not with any high end gear for a couple of patches, so some things are a total mystery to me. I'd like to find some kind of guide to the mechanics of the game, how organs and essences etc. work, relative to current patch ladder play. Who drops the new items, what do I do with them?|||Well - most things haven't changed all that much in the last patches.

Most notably though:

• Rune drops have been increased significantly - finding a rune above Gul is no longer a once in a lifetime experience.


• Runedrops are colored making them easier to spot.


• New quests and items allow for the redistribution of all skill- and statpoints Token of Absolution.


• You can hunt for keys, turn them into organsets and go to Uber-Tristram Uber Quests.


• You can hunt for a Diablo Clone.

Besides these changes there are alot of item-changes in more recent patches (1.10, 1.11), additions of runewords, new Sets etc. Most of the info can be found here and using the links at the top of the screen.|||Thanks, thats pretty much exactly what I was looking for, what you collect from where to do what. ||| read the links ThomasJohnsen provided

Uber quests you need pretty good gear to manage, Smite Paladin by far easiest, gain lots of crushing blow and a life tap wand to start with to be able.

Diablo Clone either get real lucky beeing in a hell game with correct IP or have lots and lots of patience following the guide provided.
