In the world of Diablo II: Resurrected, commitment is everything. Once you choose your class, you're pretty much locked in—unless you reroll a brand new character and start grinding from scratch. But what if you didn’t have to?
Enter the Class Switch Mod, a genius little upgrade that lets you do the unthinkable: switch your character's class entirely—without having to restart your journey through Sanctuary. Whether you're tired of spinning like a Barbarian or you’ve got cold feet about being a Frost Nova Sorceress, this mod lets you switch things up mid-campaign. Literally.
Let’s break down what it does, how it works, and why this might be the best thing to happen to your stash tab since shared inventory.
What Is the Class Switch Mod?
The Class Switch Mod for Diablo II: Resurrected allows players to convert their existing character into any other class, complete with full access to that class’s skill tree. It’s like handing your Necromancer a Paladin’s holy powers—or watching a Druid suddenly pick up Fireball. It's wild, and it works surprisingly well.
Rather than creating new characters every time you want to test a new build or class combo, this mod gives you one character to rule them all, with the power to change roles as you see fit.

How the Class Switch Works (and Why You’ll Want a Reset)
When you switch classes using this mod, your character’s skills from the previous class are replaced with randomly selected ones from the new class. That means things can get a little chaotic if you don’t clean things up afterward.
The good news is, you can easily reset everything using a Token of Absolution, which you can craft by combining a Town Portal Scroll and an Identify Scroll in your Horadric Cube. No need to go hunting bosses for rare drop materials—this recipe is as simple and accessible as it gets.
So if you switch from Amazon to Sorceress and find yourself with a weird mix of lightning and cold spells? Just pop a token, start fresh, and rebuild your ideal character with your new class.

It’s also worth noting that while the mod is client-side, you should always stick to offline play when modding to avoid any issues with Blizzard’s online policies.
Known Issues and Limitations
Of course, switching classes mid-game isn’t without its quirks. A couple of things to keep in mind:
❌ Dual-Wielding Is Still Barbarian-Only
No matter how hard your Sorceress tries, she’s not going to wield two swords like a Barb. That feature doesn’t carry over when switching classes, and there’s no toggle (yet) to enable it for others.
⚠️ Assassin’s Shadow Master Can Bug Out
If you’re planning to switch to an Assassin, beware of the Shadow Master AI. After casting magic, the clone may freeze up and stop responding. It’s a known glitch and one that the mod author is aware of.
Despite these small hiccups, the mod still offers a powerful and seamless experience that opens up a whole new dimension of gameplay freedom.
Why This Mod is a Game-Changer
The Class Switch Mod breathes new life into Diablo II: Resurrected. Instead of juggling multiple characters, you can now dive deep into multi-class experimentation with just one. Want to test every endgame build? Now you can, without endless leveling grinds or repeated quests.
It’s also a fantastic tool for theorycrafters and players who enjoy build diversity. Switch from an elemental Druid to a Bowazon, then pivot to a Frenzy Barb—all without losing your progress, gold, or gear.
And if you’re into modded storytelling or roleplaying? Imagine a world where your character “evolves” into different classes based on their journey. It’s like writing your own custom campaign through skill changes.
Final Thoughts: Class Switching Just Became Canon (Sort Of)
The Class Switch Mod is the kind of upgrade that makes you wonder why it wasn’t part of the game all along. It’s flexible, smart, and hilariously fun to experiment with. Whether you’re revisiting Diablo II: Resurrected for the nostalgia, or theorycrafting your way through builds like it’s an RPG math exam, this mod gives you complete control over your experience.
Just don’t forget to reset your skills—and maybe keep a few spare scrolls in your cube. Things get weird fast when your Barbarian suddenly remembers how to cast Fireball.
