Patch 3.3 Notes
Ladder Season 15
Ladder Season 15 Timing:
Our previous Ladder Seasons for Diablo II: Resurrected have showed just how adept adventurers were at saving Sanctuary, racing to be the first to cement their names on the Leaderboard while striking fear into the tormented hearts of their demonic adversaries in the process.
We’re making a slight adjustment to the Patch and Ladder timing going forward, starting with this season. The format of future seasons will have similar timing:
Ladder Season 14 ends – Monday, 8/17, 11 a.m. PDT
Season 15 Patch begins rolling out – Tuesday, 8/18
Ladder Season 15 starts – Friday, 8/21, 5 p.m. PDT
Ladder Season 15 will usher in a new opportunity for brave adventurers to race to Level 99 and amass powerful loot along the way. We cannot wait to see which determined souls carve their name into the Leaderboard this time.
Ladder Season 15 Launch Timing:
North America
August 21, 5:00 p.m. PDT
Europe
August 22, 1:00 a.m. BST
August 22, 2:00 a.m. CEST
Asia
August 22, 8:00 a.m. CST
August 22, 9:00 a.m. KST
As with previous seasons, Ladder Season 15 will feature different modes:
Version
Description
Pre-Expansion Ladder
The standard version of Ladder play that encompasses only the original four acts.
Pre-Expansion Hardcore Ladder
The hardcore (only one life) version of Ladder play that encompasses only the original four acts.

The standard version of Ladder play that encompasses five acts, as it includes the “Lord of Destruction” expansion content.

For those new to Ladder Seasons, you might be wondering what happens to your Shared Stash loot once the current season ends.
Once Ladder Season 14 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 13 stored in the Withdraw Only tabs will be lost at this time. You will have all of Ladder Season 15 to withdraw any items you would like to keep from Season 14. When Ladder Season 14 ends, this remove only set of Stash Tabs will be overridden with any items in the Ladder Season 14 Shared Stash. Be sure to get any items out before then, or they will be forever lost!
