Diablo II Ladder Reset May 26th

http://us.battle.net/en/forum/topic/17347755804

Blizzard posted:

It’s that time again! On the morning of Tuesday, May 26, we’ll be conducting maintenance in order to reset the Diablo II ladder. We anticipate the realms could be down for up to six hours, and during that time all existing ladder characters will be converted to non-ladder. All 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 ladder-only rune words.

This ladder reset, like all those before it, creates a clean slate where all ladder characters begin at level 1 with no previous items to help them. To participate, simply wait until the Diablo II realms return to service on May 26, log in to Battle.net, and select the “Ladder Character” checkbox when creating a new character. You can track ladder character leveling progress by clicking on the Ladder button from the main Diablo II in-game Battle.net interface.

Someone refresh my memory..how long does it take on average for a ladder reset to go from nostalgia to "ok this isn't fun now that everyone has a hammerdin bot and owns 5 of every item and rune"?

Hahahahaha I loving wish.

Yeah I know I exaggerated with that but hell any trip to d2jsp will tell you that everybody has everything except for you. :(

Anyways I don't have a working key for Diablo 2 & I was wondering if it is even worth it to buy a key or if I will play the game for a week and then stop.

drat its the 26th? I'm guessing servers won't be reset until later?

Also I believe we are playing hardcore. And since its a new ladder, almost no one will have top items for a long time if ever.

Harcore? Man.. D2 HC was scary. Not sure if I have the balls lol

Spent $8 on a shady diablo key site for the classic+lod keys..they are the 26-bit registerable ones so hopefully that goes well. If not $8 is just lunch money and I go back to playing TERA.

Well my keys are finally delivered. They added to my BNET account with no issues. So now I am downloading and installing the game. It seems to be going somewhat slow, but I'll update you when I am online. What is your account name and what realm?

Edit:

Installed! In as *ObscuritySA

Besides Obscurity and I, who is playing or wants to play? I can rush people now. Its best to get 24 first and then get 25 on ancients so you can go right to Baal runs.

Please play with us :(
