Diablo II Resurrected Ladder System

The ladder system in Diablo II appeared to let players show off their skills. In Diablo II: Resurrected ladder system has the same purpose – compete with other players and show that you are one of the best. In this post, we will tell you how the ladder system works in D2 Resurrected.

First of all, to get to the ladder you will need to create a new separate character. With this character you will not have a chance to have the aid of any characters that were non-ladder. Also, you will not be able to communicate with non-ladder players in the game.

In Diablo II: Resurrected competitive ladder started on April 28, 2022. The Ladder launch represents an optional ranked competitive system of the game through a series of modes available to select from with a fresh Ladder-specific character. Each mode will have its own leaderboard where players compete to strategically gain experience within a limited timeframe while having access to Ladder-specific content. When the Ladder season ends, leaderboard rankings will reset, transitioning characters to non-ladder mode, giving players an opportunity to store their hard-earned treasured loot as a new Ladder season awaits them.

Like the original Diablo II: LoD, Diablo II: Resurrected will feature four different Ladder modes, including:

• Classic Ladder – The normal version of Ladder play that encompasses playing with four acts.
• Hardcore Classic Ladder – The hardcore (only 1 life) version of Ladder play that encompasses playing with four acts.
• Expansion Ladder – The normal version of Ladder play that encompasses playing five acts, as it includes the “Lord of Destruction” expansion content.
• Hardcore Expansion Ladder – The hardcore (only 1 life) version of Ladder play that encompasses playing five acts, as it includes the “Lord of Destruction” expansion content.

Ladders will change from season to season and at the end of each season, your ladder character will transfer to the non-ladder characters list.

Players can use /ladder and /helpladder chat commands to retrieve season start and end information.
