same database structure and will share space on the existing
Realms. Diablo II characters will not be able to play with the two
new character classes, however, or with original Diablo II
character classes who have been created as Diablo II: Lord of
Destruction characters.

Will the ladder system be changed or updated for the
Expansion?
We will have specific ladders for Diablo II: Lord of
Destruction characters.

Will the Expansion set introduce trading in the chat rooms?
We are not going to support chat room trading between characters.
While it would be a great feature, a host of problems and design
challenges occur (such as what if you don't have enough space)
that actually make trading within the game the easiest means to
exchange items.

Will there be Guild Halls in the Expansion set?
We made a decision not to include in-game Guild Halls in the
Expansion, but at the same time we wanted to include what we
thought were the greatest benefits from the original Guild Hall
concept. This includes a bigger stash size and a few other things
that we want to make available to ALL players of Diablo II, and
not just those core gamers who seek out Guild affiliations. We
know that guilds are an important part of our community and we are
not dismissing their importance. We are instead trying to reach as
many Diablo II players as possible with the widest amount of fun
new content as we can. The goal of the Expansion is to make it a
great addition for new and experienced players as well.
