Blizzard Entertainment has released version 2.4 for Diablo 2: Resurrected, which makes the first balance changes in more than a decade.
As the patch notes detail, version 2.4 makes notable adjustments to the classes Amazon, Assassin, Barbarian, Druid, Necromancer, Paladin, and Sorceress. In particular, Amazon, Barbarian, and Druid received some buffs, while Assassin and Sorceress received tweaks.

Amazon’s animation speed has been greatly increased by 30 per cent, and its Plague Javelin poison duration is no longer fixed at 3 seconds as it was in the previous PTR. Immolation Arrow’s cooldown has been reduced by 40 per cent, while Multiple Shot now has added synergy from Guided Arrow with +12 per cent damage per level.
“We’ve noted your feedback that it feels odd that the physical bow skills don’t have any synergies like the cold and fire bow skills do,” the developer explained. “We hope that giving some synergies to the physical bow skills help them remain viable.”
Meanwhile, Barbarian’s Leap Attack now deals extra physical damage to surrounding enemies within a range of 4.6 yards when executing the ability. Its mana cost has also been increased from 9 to 10. Sword Mastery has also been renamed to Blade Mastery and now affects daggers in addition to swords with an increased base attack bonus from 28 per cent to 40 per cent.
Sorceress is the only class that has more or less remained unchanged, with Blizzard giving the Nova ability a mana cost reduction of 15 to 13.
Patch 2.4 also features level area and monster updates – an increased Unique monster density in the new level 85 areas – and general changes for AI, character selection, online, vendors, performance, and settings. A collection of bugs have also been fixed that directly affect accessibility, controls, several classes, and more. The full details for Diablo 2: Resurrected‘s patch 2.4 can be found on the official blog post.
Diablo 2 gets first major update in 11 years, fixes some 20-year-old bugs
Blizzard Entertainment rolled out a major new update for Diablo 2: Resurrected on Thursday, a patch that made sweeping balance changes to and fixed numerous bugs in the classic click-and-kill action-RPG. Patch 2.4 for Diablo 2: Resurrected is the first major balance update to the game in more than 11 years and fixes some nasty bugs that players have faced since the original game launched in 2000.
Of note are two longstanding bugs with Diablo 2 that would have completely wiped out your character’s mana — making some classes effectively defenseless — or dealt too much damage — namely fire-enchanted monsters. From Blizzard’s extensive patch notes:
--Fixed an issue where Unique monster packs with mana drain were draining way more mana than was intended
--Fixed an issue where fire enchanted monsters were doing too much damage in Nightmare difficulty
Diablo 2: Resurrected developers said last year that they wanted to address bugs like the above, the unexpected results of miscalculations in the game’s code, that have long vexed players. Andre Abrahamian, former game designer at Blizzard Entertainment and lead design for Diablo 2: Resurrected, said during a Q&A video session that the team in charge of the Diablo 2 remaster wanted to fix “things that are misinforming players,” but leave “quirks” that could benefit players or that became part of the game’s meta as-is.

Blizzard has released an update for Diablo 2 Resurrected with mostly bug fixes. The audio issue where the Amazon Valkyrie skill sound effects were too loud was fixed.
Today we are releasing an update to Diablo II: Resurrected Patch 2.4. This will not lead to any downtime for players and will be performed in the background. This update is focused on bugs and fixes. For a breakdown on the issues addressed, check out the list below:
If you are looking for D2R Runes, Runewords, Charms, Set Items, Unique Weapons & Armors, Jewels, Misc, etc., just Google search Aoeah and check it out, use code FORUM for discount!
Bug Fixes
Audio
Fixed an issue where the Amazon Valkyrie skill sound effects were too loud
Character selection
Any remaining characters that were still affected by the name capitalization issue caused by the 2.4 server deploy should now be repaired
Chat
Fixed an issue where game chat functionality could break for some players if they had a pending friend request or joined games very quickly alongside another player
Controller
--Fixed an issue where allies were extremely difficult to target with Holy Bolt using a controller. Allies can now more easily be auto-targeted by the skill. They are weighed less than enemies to prevent them from being accidentally targeted too often
--Fixed an issue that caused the player to unintentionally move towards their mercenary if they pressed the bottom face button on their controller while they had Holy Bolt bound to a non-bottom face button, and the mercenary was nearby
--Fixed an issue that caused the player to unintentionally cast Holy Bolt towards their mercenary if they pressed the bottom face button on their controller while they had Holy Bolt bound to a non-bottom face button, and the mercenary was far away
--Fixed an issue where the ‘Gold Max’ string was misaligned in Classic Character stashes when using a controller
Map Generation
Fixed an issue where certain seeds could generate an Underground Passage or Pit map without an exit
Quick Cast
--Fixed an issue where key mappings with modifier keys (e.g. Shift/Ctrl/Alt plus another key) could get stuck in the active state. This was especially noticeable with Quick Cast skills.
--Fixed an issue where clicking the left or right mouse button while holding a Quick Cast skill hotkey could cast the wrong skill.
Settings
Fixed an issue where keybindings would not save if the player exited the game too quickly after changing their keybinds
Skills
+1% synergy bonus from Find Potion is now properly communicated on the Find Item skill tooltip
Stability
--Fixed a crash that would sometimes occur on level transitions, most commonly seen in the Forgotten Tower
--Fixed a rare crash in the mercenary equipment UI related to mods

Diablo 2 Resurrected’s Ladder system is finally here, so here’s everything you need to know about its rotation in D2R, as well as the upcoming resets and available Runewords.
 While it has been a long time coming, Diablo 2 Resurrected finally has the coveted Ladder system, allowing Sanctuary’s finest to duke it out once more for their spot at the top of the leaderboard. The game‘s equivalent of a ranked mode, players create a new character each Ladder in order to earn Ladder-specific rewards, retiring their warrior at the close of play in order for another to rise from the ashes in their stead. For newer players, though, Diablo 2 Resurrected’s Ladder is a confusing creature, so here’s a rundown of everything you need to know about it; from the available Runewords, to its resets and rotation cycle. If you are looking for D2R Ladder Items, Runewords, Unique Items, Set Items, just Google search Aoeah and check it out, use code FORUM for discount! Diablo 2 Resurrected Ladder: Start dateDiablo 2 Resurrected’s version of the iconic Ladder released on April 28, 2022 following a series of delays.  What is the Ladder in Diablo 2?In previous iterations of the iconic dungeon crawler title, the Ladder represents the competitive play system. Think of it as Diablo’s equivalent of ranked. Unlike a lot of other games, though, every time the Ladder resets players need to make a new character and then start all over again. Their previous Ladder characters then move into the ‘non-Ladder’ version of the game, so the title’s standard version. From here, they keep all of the items and upgrades obtained in the previous Ladder season, making them quite the force to be reckoned with. Diablo 2 ladder reset & rotations in ResurrectedComing into Resurrected the developers have announced that they are considering changes to the system. At the moment, the Ladder will reset roughly every six months, but this will be changing coming into the remaster. With Blizzard writing “rank up in a new, exclusive Ladder system with more frequent restarts and earn your place among legends,” some players have theorized that the system will rotate every three months. As further information becomes available about this, we’ll make sure this article is updated.  Ladder benefits: Runewords, upgrades, moreIf you choose to take the Ladder path when you join the game, you’ll be capable of earning a whole host of upgraded items and Runewords. Some of these are not available to non-Ladder players, and Blizzard have even added some never-seen-before Runewords for Ladder players, too. Unique items can also be upgraded when playing through the Ladder, something that is unavailable to non-Ladder players unless they are playing in single-player. So that’s everything we know about Diablo 2 Resurrected’s Ladder! As further details are announced, we’ll be sure to keep this page updated. Until then, though, here’s our list of Resurrected guides.

 The first competitive Ladder season of Diablo 2 Resurrected is now live, bringing with it a whole host of updates to the game and significant gameplay changes for the first time in a decade.If you’re looking for details on what’s changed, it might be worth checking out the latest patch notes, or potentially, taking a look at the new Runewords and Mercenaries that are available with the introduction of the 2.4 Update. For those simply looking for details on when the Diablo 2 Resurrected Ladder Resets, including the potential end and start dates for Season 1 and Season 2, then read on! If you are looking for D2R Ladder Items, Runewords, Unique Items, Set Items, just Google search Aoeah and check it out, use code FORUM for discount! What Is Ladder Ranked Play In Diablo 2 Resurrected?Ladder play in Diablo 2 Resurrected is essentially a ranked competitive system that allows players to test themselves against other players. Normally this consists of putting your skills to the test with a fresh Ladder-specific character and a series of modes which present their own unique challenges. Each mode will have their own leaderboard where players compete to strategically gain experience within a limited timeframe while having access to Ladder-specific content. Leaderboard rankings will reset once the Ladder season ends and shift characters to non-ladder mode. This will give you the opportunity to store your hard-earned treasured loot and Ladder-specific items for future Ladder seasons. What Are The different Ladders?Like the original game, Diablo 2 Resurrected offers four different Ladder modes for players to experience, 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. Diablo 2 Resurrected Ladder Reset – 2022 DatesOriginally the Diablo 2 Ladder would last 6 months, but when Blizzard launched the Diablo 2 Resurrected ladder they released it with the following statement: “Revamped Ladder Seasons – Join the ranks of Diablo II: Resurrected players worldwide and enjoy the race to the top of the ladder. Rank up in a new, exclusive ladder system with more frequent restarts and earn your place among legends.” It sounds like the game won’t be resetting the D2R Ladder every 6 months, but equally the dev team have not confirmed exactly how long the current Season 1 will last. What is worth noting is a comment from Design Lead Robert Gallerani back in December, who suggested that each season will be 4 months long. “Three months is too quick,” Gallerani said when speaking on a community Livestream hosted by MrLlamaSC. “Six months is too long and five just feels off considering twelve months in a year.” The team supposedly settled on four-month seasons citing that the community seems fine with this length, and also allows the team to release three unique seasons in a year, which we imagine keeps the game as fresh as possible without creating too much work. Diablo 2 Resurrected Ladder – Season 1 Start/End DatesFollowing a series of delays, the Diablo 2 Resurrected ladder season 1 started on April 28, 2022. Assuming that the developers stick to their promise of a 4 month reset, we imagine Season 1 will end around August 25, 2022. Diablo 2 Resurrected Ladder Reset – Season 2 Start DatesFor the time being it’s not clear how much time the game might need between seasons. If we assume that Diablo 2 Resurrected has a two-week PTR – like we see in Diablo 3 with the testing of every new season – then we would imagine that Season 2 will begin in early September 2022. It’s worth stressing though, that this is purely hypothetical and it’s quite possible that the team working on the game changes the length of the season or requires more time to release the next season, as we saw with the original delays to the ladder originally.

Did they fix the size of the inventory? I tried playing the game but my inventory would fill up too quickly. Especially when using Charms some take too much space.

Blizzard Entertainment has released an unannounced title update, Diablo 2 Resurrected update 1.17 (PS5 version 1.017). Since the Ladder launch just this April, don’t expect anything major for more than bugs and other issues. Read on for the Diablo 2 Resurrected July 1 patch notes.
Unfortunately, Blizzard Entertainment hasn’t released officially the title update yet, although we suspect the changes have a relation with the Ladder. This could also be paired with Diablo’s launch tomorrow (which wouldn’t be the first time a game was patched to be marketed into a new game).
In the official forums, one poster mentioned how the update they put up is now empty after the update!
Between walking down the road for the first time in 3/28 at 5:00 EST and logging back in later that day at 6:00 EST something changed and now everyone’s collected items are completely empty. Get everything, get everything, take the gold. Personal stash checks aren’t affected.

Plus June 2022 is Shaping Up to Be a Massive Month for Gaming
Kicking off June 2022's new game releases is Diablo Immortal, a mobile/PC spin-off of Blizzard's popular hack-and-slash Diablo franchise. Initial reactions to Diablo Immortal were largely negative because of its mobile focus, but after some testing periods, it seems that fans are starting to turn around on the game. If nothing else, Diablo Immortal should give fans something to do while they wait for Diablo 4, and it will be interesting to see if the final product manages to exceed expectations.

Early patch notes indicate Diablo 2 Resurrected update 1.17, which recently hit consoles and PC, will primarily have a slew of bug fixes .Prior to 1.17, update 2.4 served as Diablo 2 Resurrected’s most recent patch. The 2.4 patch launched in April, introducing a whole host of bug fixes, Class changes, Level Area adjustments, and general gameplay tweaks. Notably, Blizzard Entertainment deployed the Ladder system not too long after update 2.4 became available. Diablo 2’s answer to a ranked play mode, the Ladder significantly ramps up the competition akin to Seasons in Diablo 3. The latest Diablo 2 Resurrected update isn’t so extravagant, but those still invested in the experience would do well to download it regardless. Diablo 2 Resurrected 1.17 is live on PS5As noted by MP1st, Blizzard unleashed Diablo 2 Resurrected patch 1.17 on June 1 for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. The update weighs in at approximately 5GB on PS5, though it does not appear to bring much in the way of significant changes with it. At the time of writing, the comprehensive list of changes has yet to make the rounds online. It’s possible, though, that 1.17 also tackled Ladder-related adjustments. More details should surface soon if extensive were indeed included. A remaster of the classic Blizzard Entertainment sequel, Diablo 2 Resurrected launched in September 2021 to middling critic and user reviews. Blizzard has continued to support the remaster in the months since then, unleashing smaller and larger content changes. How long this level of support will persist remains unknown at present, especially since other Diablo-branded projects are also in the works. Diablo Immortal landed on mobile and PC just this week, for example, though Blizzard previously noted it’s a mobile-first type of experience. The studio also has developers attached to ongoing production on Diablo 4. To the chagrin of many a fan, however, this long-awaited entry may not launch until sometime in 2023. Until we get more info from Blizzard, here are the early Diablo 1.17 patch notes, courtesy of Updatecrazy.  Diablo 2 Resurrected 1.17 patch notes--Fixed some game crashing bugs. --Addressed audio related issues. --Added stability fixes. --Added performance improvements. --Other minor bug fixes.
