These items can now be traded with other Core characters. Any Ladder Only Items will be converted over when your character is converted to a Core character. If you want to be a Ladder Character for the next Ladder season you must create a new character and flag it as a Ladder Character.ĭo I get to keep my Ladder Only Items when the season is over? What happens when the ladder season is over?Īll Ladder Characters become either Normal Core or Normal Hardcore Characters depending on what type of Ladder Characters they are. No, you must flag a character as a Ladder character when it is first created. You can simply play at your own speed and not worry about how you are ranked on the ladder.Ĭan I convert existing characters to Ladder Characters? What if I don’t play ladder or don’t want to compete on the ladder?Īlthough they are called Ladder Characters, players do not have to compete on the ladder to play. The main advantage of creating a Ladder Character is being able to join in on a totally new economy where powerful items are very valuable. Players create a character in a brand new world (Ladder Character world) where everything (economy, levels) starts from the beginning. They also cannot use powerful high-level items or other high-level characters to help them level up faster. When the Ladder Season first begins, players start at Level 1 and do not have powerful items. Players will be able to experience Diablo II like when the game was first released. This is similar to starting out on a brand new realm. What’s the advantage to creating a Ladder Character?

For more information on ladder characters please visit the Arreat Summit Realm Character Types page When the ladder is reset, all existing ladder characters will be converted to non-ladder.Īll characters and items being converted to non-ladder will remain intact, but once converted these characters will no longer have access to ladder content such as creating ladder-only rune words. More specific information on realm availability on the day of the reset will be posted in the Status forum. We anticipate all Diablo II realms to be down for approximately six hours during the reset.
