Kind of a dumb post, but I couldn't find a ton of difference in the two.
Does anyone care to explain?

When in doubt, diff it.

A cursory examination indicates four new areas (haven, astral, ultima, rats), a few minor changes in existing areas, and this blurb in the help files describing new changes:

Quote
New Commands:
Owhere Wizlist
Spells - Shows the mana cost of your spells Slist - Shows spells available
All Auto…stuff bypasses config Pagelength
Prompt Wizify

Features:
Different Mobs assist at 12.5% now. Carry limit is increased.
Attribute apply types lowered. Max non-primary attb at 22.
Diff. Mobs wont assist with high level diff. Enhanced Dmg is lowered a bit.
Diff. Mobs will consider align when assisting. Screen Pager.
MOBProgramed mobs. Decompression of Pfiles.
Parsed Pfile Directory. Fly over water.
More accurate consider command. Settable prompt.

Changes:
Chill touch increased. Energy Drain reduced.
Flamestrike increased. Dispel Magic removed.


Mobprogs would be the obvious new "big" feature. Whether or not the above feature list is accurate or complete is left as an exercise for the reader.

Thanks. I'm sticking Merc 2.1 then. I'm in the middle of creating a Lua interface for it. I won't need mobprogs :biggrin:
