Nevalistis has announced on the forums that the Diablo 2 ladder will be reset on May 26. At that time, all existing ladder characters will become non-ladder.

Are you planning on starting a new character for the new Diablo 2 ladder season? Maybe you want to dust off your old Bowazon build to see if she still performs or gather all of the pieces of the Tal Rasha’s set. For a trip down memory lane, check out Blizzard’s Arreat Summit, where you can find all of Diablo 2’s items!

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.
