Ohh, there's a boatload of easter eggs in Median. They are generally hilarious.
Is there a comprehensive list available, or is it up to the player to find them all?
Why am I currently in this state? (look to the left) If it's one of those funny one day things it's fine, but what for?
Laz made comprehensive lists for stuff that is important to know.Quote:

Easter eggs are important
An Unholy Paladin has a skill that can melt your face with Lazorbeams.
Some of the runewords are rather silly.
Strength of One and Enmerkar are rediculously over-powered.
Easter Eggs? In a Diablo game? Unthinkable.
Grawr... someone changed my avatar...
Ay, they did.
Jesus Christ, this post of mine here makes 2501 posts...
Tav, you were right, Rares are the best things to occur in Median. I found a crossbow that is rife with awesomesauce.
I can now PEW PEW PEW better
^^~ Pew Pew Pew :3
Note to all:
Necromancer Summoners suck in Median
The minions' stats don't scale with the difficulty
There is no crowd control skill available (which means no Uberquests)
When you come into town, you lose more than half your army
The Attack Rating of the Necromancer's pets is abysmal
You must have the Nightmare skill, otherwise everything heals itself
The AI is poor
You have to lead the crowd, meaning you'll get picked off first by an archer
Half the totems are useless
The spell timer for Corpse Seed is too long
Additionally, the spell timer for either the Summon Overlord, Rathma's Chosen, and Corpse Seed all run ON THE SAME smurfING ONE. This means that if you just used Corpse Seed, you'll have to wait 15 seconds in order to use either of the other two. This may not seem an issue until you get to an Uberlevel where you and your minions need the Life/Damage/Mana boost from totems immediately.
Minions get stuck on stairs when entering an area. Of particular interest is Kurast 3000 BA. Everything will simply sit there on the stairs doing... nothing.
By the time you get a totem up, everything is dead - whether that's your army or the enemy.
PEW PEW PEW is fun, but the damage is laughable.
Act II is more difficult than it ought to be.
Etc...
-------------------------------------------------------
I needed a break from this game anyways.

EDIT: ZOMG! I just realized that there was more to the attribute challenge than what I first thought. Necromancers can apparently craft rings and gloves that give a huge boost to minion life and damage, along with 4 random modifiers that may grant +Skills and resists.
smurf! Why didn't I read this before... I foolishly deleted my character...
In other news, I've found Throwing Barbarians to be immensely fun - especially when using Wolf Stance and Hawk Talons.
There's just something fun about zooming around with your 4 spirits laying mines everywhere.
Allow me to tell a tale:
I got all the keys. Three different keys three times to create all the sets for all the portals in one game to make sure I don't get repeats. I recruit Yummie to help me, and we decide to collect the body parts.
As I imagined, despite my bone necro having level 44 Bone spells and battle orders and teleport and almost all his synergies done and everything else imaginable, he could not even scratch the harder version of Duriel. He literally healed faster than I could hurt him. I had no choice but to swallow my racism and use Chimney's smiter instead. But I saw this coming; none of my characters are strong enough to handle the bulk of the work.
I got on Chimney's smiter and Yummie got on my account because all his characters suck complete ass and mine don't. Together, we brought him down so easily it was pie.
Next up is Izual. Easy, easy.
Lilith, same thing.
I think, "Wow, his Smiter is stupidly overpowered when it comes to bosses, so I can take on Ubers."
We make the portal and go on through. I look for Diablo or Baal first because they're easier. I lock on to Baal, and away I hack. I get him down to about [ ] life, and because of Life Tap he can't even scratch me. I'm invincible. Mephisto shows up, but I still survive because Yummie is keeping him busy and I can't be hurt.
Then Diablo comes into my screen with Armageddon crap on.
My screen FREEZES...and freezes...and freezes...I start counting with Mississippi in between. 27 seconds of my computer frozen. Do you know how long that is? It may not sound like much, but sit there and really count 27 seconds to yourself. It's quite a while.
When it unfreezes and goes haywire trying to play catch up, both of us are dead and they are standing over our corpses. He told me he froze up too. We have trouble enough loading two of them on screen, and it seems all three was the breaking point.
Then, anytime either of us try and go in the portal, we freeze up for about 5-10 seconds then it just shows us as dead. Our computers are literally too crappy to enter Uber Tristram.
And so we had no choice but to abandon the game. And by no choice, I mean I said many key words, threw a fit, and left after dying about 100 times. I tried everything. I tried rejoining to get my body. I tried his Hammerdin. I tried Koast's summoner to take the damage for me until I could load the screen. I even tried Amazons just to be funny. It was a lost cause, kids. It was a lost cause.
This is why I will be collecting the keys again. Next time, everybody who has any Non-Ladder characters worth ass is getting on and helping me. You will die for me until I can load them and then proceed to smite everything to death. But I'm collecting the keys, so you have to give me the prize :bigsmile: Which will also belong to Chimney when he gets back because I'm using his character to kill the bosses. Although at this point, I just think they're fun coz they're hard and I'm not worried too much about the torch anymore.
