Ladder Season Three will begin on February 16, ushering in a new opportunity for brave adventurers to race to level 99 and amass powerful loot along the way. We cannot wait to see how the eight new Rune Words will influence the leaderboard, or hopefully, allow new players the opportunity to see their name on it for the first time.
We’re also introducing changes to the availability of Sundering Charms, existing Rune Words, and new Horadric Cube Recipes with the start of Ladder Season Three.
List of D2R Season 3 Runewords
Individually they are mighty, but when uttered in unison, a greater force is awoken—this is the mystique of Rune Words. Call upon these archaic forces to transform your ordinary items into a wieldable force of destruction capable of smiting demonic hordes.
We are introducing eight new Rune Words for Ladder and Offline Single-Player play. Our intent with introducing these additional Rune Words to Diablo II: Resurrected is to sprinkle variety into the competitive meta, creating an opportunity for players to forge new strategies as they race to Level 99. The bulk of these Rune Words focus on bolstering resistance bonuses, while the other Rune Words are centered on movement speed, and Assassin and Druid builds.

Eight New Rune Words Guides
- Bulwark, Temper, and Ground: We liked where they were at and opted for no change.
- Cure: Given Cure’s more niche use cases, we opted to strengthen it with the Cleansing Aura. Note that the base Poison Duration reduction on the item went down, but the addition of Cleansing Aura results in a net-buff to Poison Duration reduction.
- Hearth: To build on the theme of this Rune Word, we gave it a bit more oomph to solidify it as a go-to gear option when struggling with enemies who deal Cold Damage.
- Hustle: Most of the feedback we received was around the armor form. The bulk of our focus was to improve that form, but we also saw improvements we could make to the weapon form. For the Armor, we wanted to add more offensive utility and some defensive stats in the form of All Resistances. For the weapon, we wanted to make using it as a primary weapon a more attractive option to increase its viability beyond its pre-buff utility.
- Metamorphosis: We moved in the direction of a slight buff to Metamorphosis. We want this Rune Word to really compete for best-in-slot for Shapeshifter Druids.
- Mosaic: We went all-in on increasing the strength of the Mosaic Rune Word. We wanted to add extra flexibility by increasing the chance to not consume charges from 25% percent to 50% so you can either wield one to get that 50% chance or dual wield for that 100% chance of not consuming charges. We also added an extra effect to how not consuming charges interacts with charge maintenance.
The Seven Rune Words and handful of Horadric Cube recipes that were added in Ladder Season One can now be used in non-Ladder Online game modes.
Rune Words: Flickering Flame, Mist, Obsession, Pattern, Plague, Unbending Will, and Wisdom.
Horadric Cube Recipes:
|
1 Ral Rune + 1 Sol Rune + 1 Perfect Emerald + Normal Set Weapon |
Exceptional Version of Set Weapon |
|
1 Lum Rune + 1 Pul Rune + 1 Perfect Emerald + Exceptional Set Weapon |
Elite Version of Set Weapon |
|
1 Tal Rune + 1 Shael Rune + 1 Perfect Diamond + Normal Set Armor |
Exceptional Version of Set Armor |
|
1 Ko Rune + 1 Lem Rune + 1 Perfect Diamond + Exceptional Set Armor |
Elite Version of Set Armor |
Sundering Charms
Adventurer, keep a keen eye towards the floor as you cut through Hell’s legions—Sundering Charms can now drop from fallen foes in all non-Classic game modes.
Ladder Season 3 Rank Play Modes
We are excited to invite you the Diablo II: Resurrected Season 3 competitive Ladder system. 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 their 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.
As it was with previous seasons, Ladder Season Three will feature four different modes:
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| Pre-Expansion Ladder | The standard version of Ladder play that encompasses playing only with the original four acts. |
| Pre-Expansion Hardcore Ladder | The hardcore (only one life) version of Ladder play that encompasses playing only with the original four acts. |
| Ladder | The standard version of Ladder play that encompasses playing five acts, as it includes the “Lord of Destruction” expansion content. |
| Hardcore Ladder | The hardcore (only one life) version of Ladder play that encompasses playing five acts, as it includes the “Lord of Destruction” expansion content. |
Once Ladder Season Two ends, all Ladder characters will be transferred to their respective non-ladder group. All items in that character group's shared stash go into a new Withdraw Only set of Shared Stash tabs, denoted by a check marked Past box. Any items from Ladder Season One stored in the Withdraw Only tabs will be lost at this time. You will have all of Ladder Season Three to withdraw any items you would like to keep from Season Two. When Ladder Season Three ends, this withdraw only set of stash tabs will be overridden with any items in the Ladder Season Three Shared Stash. Be sure to get any items out before then or they will be forever lost!
D2R 2.6 Patch Notes
On February 15 at 10:00 a.m. PST, changes to Terror Zones and a variety of quality-of-life updates and bug fixes will go live.
Terror Zones
To spice things up further, we have made changes to Terror Zones. Also, Terror Zones are now available in offline games! Offline Terror Zones will operate on a different schedule from their online counterpart but function the same otherwise. Remember, you can now receive Sundering Charms as a drop in offline Terror Zone games too.
The red font text below denotes which new zones may be terrorized or zones that will now be terrorized in unison. Here’s a complete list of all the zones that can become terrorized:
|
|
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

|
Terror Zone Difficulty
|
Developer’s Note: Our adjustments are focused on adding more variety to the available Terror Zones and improving the playability of existing zones. We’ve added some new zones, broadened others, and even removed a zone that was generally unpopular with our players.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed Terrorized treasure classes for certain super-unique monsters and bosses.
- Fixed an issue where an act boss's quest treasure class would sometimes be used instead of the terrorized treasure class.
- Fixed an issue where the current terrorized zone was not properly marked in the Waypoint menu while using Legacy Graphics.
- Fixed an issue with translations that appear when The Pit is the current terrorized zone.
D2R 2.6 Quality-of-Life Updates and Bug Fixes
Gameplay Changes
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Auras | Auras from another player or a mercenary no longer remove passive bonuses granted by the same skill. Such as Flickering Flame's Resist Fire aura from a mercenary overwriting a Paladin's base Resist Fire from their own hard points in Resist Fire. This also fixes an issue where Paladin's Blessed Aim Aura would overwrite the Attack Rating increase granted by Amazon's Penetrate skill. |
| Assassin |
|
| Amazon |
|
| Sorceress |
|
| Druid |
Developer’s Note: We wanted to implement targeted changes and buffs for the Druid instead of having a particular Druid build be strong because of a bug. |
Controller
- Fixed an issue where skills granted by charges on a character’s alternate slot weapon would have their bound hotkeys unusable when loading into a game.
- Fixed an issue where the Loot to Cube skill would not function if bound to the shared interaction button.
General
| Description |
|---|
| Fixed an issue where pressing the hotkey to open the inventory while loading into the game could cause the inventory UI to appear empty. |
| Fixed an issue where the Shared Stash could exceed the memory limit, which caused items in the player's inventory or Stash to be deleted. |
| Fixed an issue where the tooltip on the Lobby's season dropdown would show an inaccurate date. |
| Fixed an issue where new entries on the leaderboard could display as Unknown. |
| Fixed an issue where applying changes to controls would automatically close the settings menu. |
| Fixed an issue where changes to controls would not be immediately applied. |
| Fixed an issue where swapping between keyboard and mouse input and controller input would reset the difficulty filter in the PC Lobby game list. |
| Added an appropriate error message when trying to create an online character with a name that is already taken on the player's online character list. |
| The Ladder flag in character creation will now be disabled when there is no active Ladder Season. |
| Fixed an issue with a voice over line from Tyrael in Chinese. |
| Fixed an issue with the Chinese version of Deckard Cain's Stay a while and listen voice over dialogue. |
Modding
- Moved the "% Damage Synergy" field for Multiple Shot (srvdofunc 8) from calc4 to calc5.
- New columns have been added. Developers of existing offline single-player mods can remake their changes with the new data, or they can add the new columns manually before merging.
- skills.txt
- "ItemUseRestrict"
- skilldesc.txt
- "item proc text"
- "item proc descline count"

Diablo II: Resurrected and Diablo III upcoming content updates
Source: Posted by u/PezRadar (Community Manager).
Hello all
Happy New Year!
We just wanted to provide a quick update on D2R and D3 timing for upcoming seasons and updates as we have seen a plethora of questions regarding timing for these.
For D2R, we are expecting ladder reset for S3 to begin sometime in mid-February. We will share more specifics on the date with the community in the coming weeks.
For D3, players can expect PTR for the next update to come toward the tail end of January. We will have notes that will be available on our blog a little prior to that.
Hope this offers a bit more clarity and helps with timing and scheduling for those wanting to jump in right at the start.
D2R 2.5 Patch Notes
TERROR ZONES
The journey to level 99 is a celebrated experience for players and quite the milestone if achieved—a rite of passage, even. We want the journey to level 99 to be accessible to a larger population of players, offer more variety other than repeatedly farming Baal, Diablo, and Nihlathak, and most importantly, remain challenging. This is where Terror Zones come in. As we get into details, please note that players can choose to opt-out of Terror Zones if desired.
To unlock the Terror Zones feature, you must defeat Baal per character, per difficulty using any expansion character—existing characters that have already fulfilled the requirements will automatically have this feature unlocked. Once Ladder Season Two begins, players will need to meet the aforementioned requirements to unlock Terror Zones for their new ladder characters.
When playing a Terror Zone-enabled game, every hour, diabolical tremors infused with the Lord of Destruction’s unwavering corruption creep into specific zones, emboldening the monsters within, and terrorizing them. The monsters in these zones will be at least two levels higher than your current level or their original level, up to a maximum per difficulty. The experience received and the loot dropped by killing a terrorized monster will be based on this new level—terrorized monsters will also grant additional experience points.
Here are the level details for each monster type per difficulty:
Normal
- Standard Monsters: +2 player level up to 45
- Champion: +4 player level up to 47
- Unique: +5 player level up to 48
Nightmare
- Standard Monsters: +2 player level up to 71
- Champion: +4 player level up to 73
- Unique: +5 player level up to 74
Hell
- Standard Monsters: +2 player level up to 96
- Champion: +4 player level up to 98
- Unique: +5 player level up to 99
The base player level used for the above calculations are taken from the creator of the game. If the host leaves the game, a new player will be selected for the base once the next Terror Zone is announced. Terror Zone monsters will spawn at their new modified level or their original level, whichever is higher. Upon entering a Terror Zone-enabled game, you’ll be informed of the current terrorized areas through a message sent to you via the Chat Box. When the time for new terrorized zones draws near, you will be informed of the impending changes via the Chat Box.
In addition, you will be informed that you’re entering a terrorized area by several indicators:
- Unique iconography next to a terrorized monster’s name
- On-screen text and messaging
- Special audio cue
- In-game text on the auto-map
- Unique environmental lighting
- Ember visual effects
Waypoints have also received some changes to assist in locating the current Terror Zone:
- An icon will display on the Waypoint menu next to the Waypoint that is closest to the current Terror Zone.
- The Waypoint closest to the current Terror Zone will have its name displayed in a purple font.
Here’s a complete list of all the zones that can become terrorized:
Act I |
| Blood Moor and Den of Evil |
| Cold Plains and The Cave |
| Burial Grounds, The Crypt, and the Mausoleum |
| Stony Field |
| Dark Wood |
| The Forgotten Tower |
| Jail |
| Cathedral and Catacombs |
| The Pit |
| Tristram |
| Moo Moo Farm |
Act II |
| Sewers |
| Rocky Waste and Stony Tomb |
| Dry Hills and Halls of the Dead |
| Far Oasis |
| Lost City, Valley of Snakes, and Claw Viper Temple |
| Arcane Sanctuary |
| Tal Rasha’s Tombs |
Act III |
| Spider Forest and Spider Cavern |
| Flayer Jungle and Flayer Dungeon |
| Kurast Bazaar, Ruined Temple, and Disused Fane |
| Kurast Sewers |
| Travincal |
| Durance of Hate |
Act IV |
| Outer Steppes and Plains of Despair |
| River of Flame/City of the Damned |
| Chaos Sanctuary |
Act V |
| Bloody Foothills |
| Frigid Highlands |
| Glacial Trail |
| Crystalline Passage and Frozen River |
| Arreat Plateau |
| Nihlathak’s Temple, Halls of Anguish, Halls of Pain, and Halls of Vaught |
| Ancient’s Way and Icy Cellar |
| Worldstone Keep, Throne of Destruction, and Worldstone Chamber |
NEW SUNDERING CHARMS
In Hell difficulty, many monsters receive resistance to specific damage types. If their resistance increases above 100%, that monster is then immune to a specific damage type. Because there are only a handful of ways to reduce a monster’s immunity, only a minute portion of hero builds can successfully farm all zones in Diablo II: Resurrected. We realize that this can create scenarios where certain builds are unable to take full advantage of the current Terror Zone, thus missing out on the experience gains, and most importantly, the fun of these zones.
To promote increased class build diversity, we have introduced six Sundering Charms that allow the player to break specific monster immunity types while the charm is in their inventory. Once Ladder Season Two begins on October 6, Sundering Charms will be a possible drop for new Ladder characters. These new unique charms will only drop from Terrorized monsters of Champion, Unique, Superunique, or Boss difficulty.
You’ll notice a new keyword below called Sunder. This keyword means that if a monster has immunity to a specific damage type, their resistance will be reduced to 95% regardless of what their starting resistance percentage was—breaking their immunity and allowing damage of that type to be dealt to them. Sunder is applied before other resistance reducing modifiers and only affects non-players. There is one tradeoff that comes with the Sundering Charms: while they reduce a monster’s resistance, they also reduce your resistance to the same element, allowing you to receive more damage of that type. The specific percent that your resistance is reduced by the Sundering Charm will vary per charm, so look out for the charms offering the most advantageous percentages to maximize your build. Any abilities granted by a Sundering Charm will also extend to your pets and summons, so keep that in mind as you upgrade your character.
The Black Cleft
- Monster Magic Immunity is Sundered
- Magic Resist –45% to -65%
The Bone Break
- Monster Physical Immunity is Sundered
- Physical Damage Received Increased by 10% to 30%
The Cold Rupture
- Monster Cold Immunity is Sundered
- Cold Resist –70% to -90%
The Crack of the Heavens
- Monster Lightning Immunity is Sundered
- Lightning Resist –70% to -90%
The Flame Rift
- Monster Fire Immunity is Sundered
- Fire Resist –70% to -90%
The Rotting Fissure
- Monster Poison Immunity is Sundered
- Poison Resist –70% to -90%
Developer’s Note: We have heard much of the community’s thoughts on how the new Sunder Charms work with the sorceresses Cold Mastery ability. Looking at the percentage of monsters that are cold immune, the trade-offs of having to gain and equip a new grand charm, and re-checking our damage output, we feel the current behavior of Cold Mastery is not significantly more powerful than many of the other abilities affected by Sunder and does not need to change at this time.

- Added an indication next to the automap to inform the player where the current Terror Zone is specifically located.
Modding
We have made some changes to enhance the offline single-player modding experience. While these changes will cause compatibility issues for current offline single-player mods, they will allow for further customization options for mod developers.
- Added a new file: LevelGroups.txt. This file allows levels to be grouped together for the purpose of condensing Terror Zones messages.
- Added a new file: hirelingdesc.txt. This file defines hireling data specific to the monsterclass but not the hireling statblock. Currently it only controls voice type.
- Various mercenary UI attributes are now modifiable through data. This includes skill icons, inventory slot backgrounds, and class names.
- New AI parameters have been added to the mercenary’s AI for the purpose of removing hardcoding. See monai.txt for details.
- Removed hardcoded relationships for beltable items. Similar items are now determined by spell type for scrolls and item type for everything else.
- Fixed a crash on controller when using new player skills that are listed after the vanilla skills.

Save Data Changes
Some changes to save data have been made in “ItemStatCost.txt”. If an existing single player mod has edited these values, then their mod’s saves may become corrupted when migrating old saves to the new save version. It is recommended to create backups of existing saves before loading them.
- “damageresist” and “magicresist”
- Save Bits: 8 -> 9
- Save Add: 0 -> 200
- “fireresist”, “lightresist”, “coldresist”, and “poisonresist”
- Save Bits: 8 -> 9
- Save Add: 50 -> 200
Text File Column Changes
Developers of existing offline single player mods can remake their changes with the new data, or they can add the new columns before merging.

- “LevelGroup”
monstats.txt
- “CannotDesecrate”
- “NoShldBlock” -> “ShieldBlockOverride”
