The first Ladder season of Diablo II: Resurrected is about to begin. Compared with the non-Ladder mode, the biggest difference between the two is not only the new creation of players' characters but also the unique Rune Words in the Ladder mode.

As we all know, Rune Words plays a very important role in the game. It is a concept introduced by Diablo 2. Players can create equipment and achieve equipment enhancement by matching them. Sometimes, a piece of Rune Words gear can power up a character to unimaginable levels.

If you choose to participate in the Ladder, you'll be able to earn tons of Rune rewards, as well as take advantage of the new Rune Words exclusive to Ladder.
