no edit summary
This page contains a short summary of each character class and their skills. For the full descriptions, please see the official website at http://modsbylaz.planetdiablo.gamespy.com/ <br/>
All skill trees are arranged in a linear cascade - there are no branching trees. This does not mean the mod has less customized skill builds compared to the original game, you can still take skills from other skilltrees as long as the prerequisites are met.
Generally, each class has three skill tabs. The first one, the "base" skill tab shares the same skill tab as the class uberskills. The other two skill tabs are usually divided into specialized functions, and there may be other restrictions between them, such as the Paladin's need to pick between the Light and Dark skillsets, or the Sorceress' restriction to two out of four elements.
The topmost skill tier has a level requirement of 1, and following that the next skills are available at levels 6, 12, 18, and 24. The uberskills have a level requirement of 90 (in addition to their challenge requirements). The Ennead and Black Road challenges rewards skills are also listed under uberskills, as they too have a level requirement of 90.
Each skill has a level cap which you must reach in order to put more points into it. For example, if you have saved up 10 skill points, you cannot immediately dump all 10 of them into a skill when you level up enough to reach it. However, there are skills and and even item mods which can raise this cap for you.
P.S. The official website does not name the skill trees; these are taken from inside the game itself.

The Charm spell allows you to temporarily convert most monsters to fight for you. Pet commands are party blessings that only affect charmed minions. Once activated, the minion will remember the pet command, so you can switch to an attack skill or a different pet command.
Be warned that if the monster turns back against you, it will use its command bonuses against you, so make sure it dies before it has a chance to. The command Culling of the Herd will quickly deal with minions that are about to lose their charm.
