Talk:Expansion

Rename to LoD

Since D2R got a new expansion "Reign of the Warlock", should we rename this page to explicitly "Lord of Destruction" (and make it a disambig page, like Warlock), since it's not "the" expansion anymore? Trang Oul (talk) 03:14, 13 February 2026 (EST)

I'd say yes, we should do that. Downside: 141 pages link here. Fixing all of them might be a chore ... :( Naturelover (talk) 15:01, 13 February 2026 (EST)

Sure, it'll be a chore. Unless there is a way to download all the pages (like a git repository), edit them locally using mass replace, and then upload back (User:Onderduiker, maybe you know?).

The only issue I can think of is that D2R calls the game modes ("eras"; for example on the character creation screen) "Classic", "Expansion" (not LoD) and "Reign of the Warlock". So maybe it should stay as is? Trang Oul (talk) 16:56, 13 February 2026 (EST)

While I'm nominally an administrator and bureaucrat, this was only to allow me to deal with vandalism way back in 2011. As you know, automatic account creation was then disabled, and I don't have any expertise beyond what I've picked up contributing here and elsewhere. I don't own or play Diablo II: Resurrected or Reign of the Warlock and it's not likely that I will, so for years my contributions here have really been limited to updating the Ladder page and trying to patrol edits at least once a month (although with the recent release, I'll check more often).

If the game still has Classic, Expansion and Reign of the Warlock eras, then I don't think a distinction needs to be made between Expansion and Lord of Destruction unless there are features specific to LoD but not RotW, otherwise RotW-only content can go on, or refer to, the RotW page.
