Diablo 2: Resurrected Warlock Class Character Creation Screen

If you plan to start a new character to test the Warlock class in Diablo 2: Resurrected – The Reign of the Warlock, you no longer have to guess your way through early skill points.

Our Diablo 2 writer, MrLlamaSC, has published a full step-by-step Warlock leveling route that walks you from the very first levels all the way into endgame builds. The guide focuses on a safe and efficient progression path so you do not end up stuck or forced into early respecs.

Fastest Warlock Leveling Build for D2R

What The Warlock Leveling Guide Covers

The page includes both practical tips and a complete leveling table:

  • Recommended early skills and when to swap builds
  • When Fire or Magic leveling becomes stronger
  • How to deal with Hell immunities
  • Stat point allocation at each level
  • Quest skill rewards and respec timing

The suggested skill route starts with Fire abilities like Ring of Fire and Flame Wave before transitioning into Magic later for better late-game progression.

The page has a full level-by-level breakdown so you can follow along without worrying about ruining your character.

The Best Warlock Build for Day-One Players

Because the Warlock introduces completely new mechanics and summons, early progression can easily go wrong if points are too scattered. This guide is meant to remove that problem entirely and let you focus on playing the game instead of planning spreadsheets or spending a lot of time on early theorycrafting.

If you want to reach Nightmare and Hell comfortably, this leveling build is currently not just the safest but also the fastest early game setup, and a great starting point.

You can also find links to all endgame Warlock builds directly on the same page, which is great for when you reach max level.
