 Version 1.1.1 Just a small, quick update.
 Version 1.1 The Act V walkthru is complete! It took a less time
 than I expected. I'm going to add a bit more detail to it eventually
 though. More 20+ skills done too. The next update probly won't come
 out for a week or two.
 Version 1.0 Well, this update came a lot sooner because I found the
 level and experience address (I hex-hacked my save file to get all
 of the skill levels) so now, all skills are in. Plus I added a few 20+
 skills
 Version 0.9 First release, all Druid skills are in.
 Version 0.0 Not released, checked for typos.

 Pros: WOW, that's a lot of life and mana to steal.

 Pros: It's almost exactly like the Paladins Zeal attack, it's nice
 to hit more than once with one click.

 4.  Act V Walkthru
 	Town: Harrogath
 	NPCs: Malah-Magical Items
 		Larzuk-Weapons/Armor, Socket Item (after Quest 1)
 		Qual-Kehk-Hirelings (after Quest 2)
 		Nihlathak-Gamble (until Quest 3 is completed)
 		Anya-Gamble (after Quest 3), Personalize Item (after
 		Quest 4)
 
 	Waypoints:	Harrogath
 			Frigid Highlands
 			Arreat Plateau
 			Crystalline Passage
 			Glacial Trail
 			Halls of Pain
 			Frozen Tundra
 			The Ancients' Way
 			Worldstone Keep Level 2
 
 Quest 1: Siege on Harrogath.
 		Stop the siege be killing Shenk the Overseer in the
 		Bloody Foothills.
 
 When you first arrive in town, after entering the portal Tyrael
 opens when you defeat Diablo, talk to people (if you want) just
 to get acclimated to town. Then talk to Larzuk, he gives you Quest
 1. This Quest is pretty simple to complete, exit town through the
 main gate in the north (because of the isometric view when I say a
 direction will be as follows: North would be the upper-left, South
 would be lower-right, East would be upper-left and West would be
 lower-right). You'll meet some of the new enemies, hack your way
 through them continuing North, If you reach the Frigid Highlands,
 you've gone too far. Before the Highlands, there is a larger area,
 within here somewhere is Shenk, You'll receive a Quest notification
 telling you to kill him, that means you are near him. on your auto-map
 you can see a circle that appears reddish, he is always on or very
 near this. Once you kill him open a portal, or go to the Frigid
 Highlands and find the waypoint, For me it was always fairly near
 the beginning. Talk to Larzuk, he will now add sockets to the item
 of your choice.
 
 Quest 2: Rescue on Mount Arreat
 		Find The Soldiers in the Frigid Highlands.
 
 If you went to the Frigid Highlands and to the waypoint, you'll
 already have this Quest, otherwise, you'll have to speak with
 Qual-Kehk, return through your portal and go north to the Highlands
 (or back through the waypoint). This quest will take a bit longer
 than Quest 1. You can level quite a bit here as there are a lot of
 enemies, going north or east (it seems that most of time it is north,
 I've only had to go east once, but either way, you'll know, if there
 is a wall to the north you'll need to go east. It may also be west,
 but I've yet to need to go that way.)you'll eventually see "buildings"
 somewhere near these you can see white walls on your map, these
 are the prisoner pens. There are three of them and to release the
 prisoners you'll need to break down the doors. After a pen is
 opened up, you'll get a quest notification telling you you'll need
 to find 10 more prisoners (after the first pen) or 5 more prisoners
 (after the second pen) don't worry, there are 5 prisoners per pen.
 All three pens should be close to each other, most of the time, after
 you've found them all you'll be able to see all 3 pens on the map.
 Sometimes not. I can't give specific directions because like most
 quests, the pen locations are random. Once all 3 pens are empty,
 portal back to town and talk to Qual-Kehk, he will now allow you to
 hire Barbarian Mercenaries and give you three runes which can craft
 a runic item (you need a 3 socketed shield, but the item you make
 isn't that great.
 
 Quest 3: Prison of Ice
 		Look for Anya under the Crystalline Passage by the
 		Frozen River.
 
 Continue going through the Frigid Highlands in whatever direction
 you have been You'll reach the Arreat Plateau. Walk through here
 and once you hit the mountain side, walk near this and you will
 eventually see ice and a lot of snow, near here is a Unique
 Overlord, kill him if you want to. You should also see and entrance
 to the Crystalline Passage, go there. Once inside, explore around
 also, beware Evil Urns, sometimes they have treasure inside, other
 times, they act like monster shrines, summoning a Unique monster
 and some minions. Once in a while, both. Eventually you will come
 across an exit, if it says Glacial Trail, don't go here yet, that
 isn't the right exit. There is a waypoint here, I recommend trying
 to find it as you'll need to return here to go through that Glacial
 Trail exit. Once you find the Frozen Rive exit, go through it. Walk
 around here and eventually, you'll get a quest notification, that
 means you are near Anya, there will also be a Unique Frozen Abyss,
 Frozenstien. Once you reach Anya, you'll see she is encased in ice,
 talk to her and she will tell you Nihlathak did this and that Malah
 will be able to help her. Portal back to town and talk to Malah, she
 will give you a potion for Anya. Go back to Anya and give her the
 potion, she will return to Harrogath. Go Back to town and talk to
 Malah, she gives you a scroll of resistance, which permanently adds
 10 to all your resistances. Talk to her Anya and she will give you a
 rare class-specific item, the ones I've gotten were all pretty good.
 She will also open a portal in town to Nihlathak's temple and give you
 the next quest
 
 Quest 4: Betrayal of Harrogath
 		Take Anya's portal to Nihlathak's Temple.
 
 There isn't much to say about this Quest, enter Nihlathak's temple
 and go into the Halls of Anguish. Find your way to the next
 staircase, the Halls of Pain, there is waypoint here if you want to
 hit it. Then go down again into the Halls of Vaught. Nihlathak is in
 here. He explodes corpses so watch out. Once you dispose of him, return
 to town and Anya will now personalize an item for you (say you have a
 short sword, it will from then on be Yourname's short sword).
 
 Quest 5: Rite of Passage
 		Travel through the Ancient's Way to find the Ancients at
 		the Arreat Summit
 
 Okay, go back to the Crystalline Passage and find the Glacial trail
 exit, go through it. The Glacial Trail is just like the Crystalline
 Passage. Walk around until you find the exit to the Frozen Tundra.
 Again, walk around in this area, you'll find an exit to the Ancient's
 Way. The should be on a wall (it may be generated somewhere other
 than a wall, I always thought the Underground Passage in Act 1 was
 ALWAYS on a wall, then I discovered it wasn't, but most of the time
 this exit is on a wall). I'd recommend hitting the waypoint in this
 area, you may need to come back if you die while facing the Ancients.
 In the Ancients way you'll find the exit to the Arreat Summit. Walk
 east here and you'll see a circle, with 3 statues near it, and in the
 center, Altar of the Heavens. Make sure you and (if you have any)
 your minions are fully healed. Once you click on the Altar, the Ancients
 will tell you that you must fight them to gain access to the Worldstone
 Keep. Once the text is done the statues will come to life and you will
 have to fight them, all at once. They are very and I recommend having
 a lot of rejuvenation potions. Once all three are defeated, you can enter
 the Worldstone Keep, Level 1. Now, i have recived many e-mails from people
 saying that they gained stat and skill points and that is the reward, but
 it's just because you've beaten 3 high-level monsters one after another.
 So yes, in a sense there is a reward for beating them, their experience, and
 experience from beating the quest but, no person give you a reward and that
 is what I meant.
 
 Quest 6: Eve of Destruction
 		Find Baal's throne room.
 
 Once in the Worldstone Keep, find the stairs to the second level and
 hit the waypoint. Go down to the next level and then to the next, The
 Throne of Destruction. Baal is on this level, once in his room you'll
 see him sitting near a portal, he will throw out a ball of light
 toward you, it summons a Unique monster and his minions, remember when
 you get lag while he is throwing out uniques it is happening to
 everyone. The minions or destruction are the most difficult. After about
 5 of them Baal will go through the portal behind him, follow him. Once
 in side, watch out for the tendrils that come from the floor, Baal will
 also use aura's to slow you down. Nothing much left to say besides,
 kill Baal. Once you do Tyrael appears, talk to him, then go through
 the portal he open and enjoy the end cinematic. I won't tell you what
 happens though.
 
 Congratulations! You've beaten Act V and the game.
