Swapping Items

[DreadLeader]

Can you swap items from one character to another in the same online profile? IF so how?

Not easily. There is no simple swapping functionality Diablo II. You have to use the constructs of Battle.net and the games open on the servers to swap items (called muling).

1) Go to a game that a friend is in. Give item to a friend. Leave game. Return with character that wants the item.

2) Go to a public game. Drop the item somewhere hidden. Leave game. Return with the character that wants the item.

3) Create a private game. Sit in it for 5 minutes so it doesn't disappear when you leave. Drop item somewhere. Leave game. Return with the character that wants the item.

Each method has it's ups and downs (which you can probably figure out yourself), so you have to figure out what is the best for you. I tend to use methods 1 and 3. Good luck!

I use the wait 5 all the time and ive never lost anything, just have to make sure you dont switch chars too fast or youll get realm down.

even if u perm a game for 5 mins, its still unsafe due to so much lag lately, u can be kicked out of a game and even if it is permed when u try to rejoin, it'll say that game doesn't exist, best way is to give them to a trustable friend and then come back for them.

You could also try to find someone here that is trustable to wait in the game for you.
