Bring back Classic levels and hit detection?

[Tyhm]

I stopped bothering when it became apparent I wasn't going to beat Sardon's Boss Monstar, and I wouldn't be allowed to do anything else until I did. Baddy Hit Detection had a lot to do with it, as did the absence of other quests ramping up in difficulty; it was pretty much "here's a nothing quest, and now here's a quest where you die arbitrarily and need to do a perfect run to stand a chance."
Seriously. The shootball scripts would just decide that when they hit anything, to hurt the player. Pretty sure Thor fixed them to some degree, but still, not okay. Plus I still take issue with CLASSIC deciding to arbitrarily double the HP of all the DEFAULT BADDIES. I can handle bad HD when there's a workaround or when the quest wasn't that hard to begin with, but when it's "you get hit from across the room because it's a little laggy, your hits don't register half the time, and it takes thirty seconds of not getting arbirarily hit to set up a shot, also there's a trick to defeating the boss that requires realizing that one of your attacks (that doesn't connect most of the time) is the only thing that does damage"....man, screw that.
