Related: Diablo 4 Will 'Advance The Art' Of Action RPGs, Activision Says Going in blind and spending skill points with abandon is a recipe for disaster in Diablo 2, where respecing a character can be a difficult process. The issue is knowing which skills to put points into and which to ignore. Each class possess numerous skills, of which players will only want to focus on a few to remain competitive in the game's later stages. Whirlwind was great (although only useful in D2 Classic iirc), but the rest of the Barbarians effects where not really interesting for me (Frenzy and Double Swing where somewhat interesting in regards to animations) and since visuals are kinda important for me, I can not rank this higher.For players jumping into Diablo 2 for the first time (or the first time in years), choosing a build for a particular class can be an intimidating process. I never really was a summoner fanatic, probably because that build took a while to summon all the stuff and was not that powerful iirc.Ĭorpse Explosion is effectwise great in D3 but not in D2 and in D2 it was not really efficient to combine summoning with the spells iirc, or at least I couldn’t make it work that well. The spell effects of Bone Spear, Bone Spirit and Bone Armor were awesome imo and that is why this is not ranking lower.

Hurricane, Armageddon and Twisters were cool and I played with these builds a bit, but Shapeshifting never really was my thing. I played a lot of Druid in Median XL, but not in D2. I just loved the fantasy of Phoenix Strike. And she was a Phoenix Striker Assassin, not some Trapsin. iirc she was either 94 or 96, can’t rememebr exactly. The highest I ever leveled a single character.

Also both in D2 Classic and Median XL, the Paladin was the first class I every played, so it will also have a special place for me. I also loved the animation for Fist of the Heavens, but that skill was useless due to the ICD. I really only like the FanaZealer, but that one is awesome. I would have loved to use them more if they were more efficient.īut still, even that these skill had the potential to be great and that LF is so awesome, I put Amazon in S Tier. Multishot and etc, are nice, but sadly kinda underpowered. That skill is just the apex of awesomeness. Or to be more specific: Lightning Fury Amazon. She has all the cool spells and spell effects (Frozen Orb, Firewall, Hydra, Meteor, Thunderstorm) and some of the coolest builds (especially Hybrid Builds of two elements). I again make a Tier List instead of a Ranking S Tier
