Here is our female warrior, not to be confused as a beefed-up Rogue for as well as being much more effective with the bow she also has the potential to master the use of [[javelins]], [[spears ]] and just a tad of [[magic]].

Her obvious strength lies in ranged attacks and as well as being able to fire a bow or throw a javelin she can enhance these attacks by way of imbuing the weapons with various magical effects such as [[poison]], [[cold ]] and [[lightning]]. There are also skills which will improve her overall proficiency in their uses, for instance, '[[Penetrate]]' and '[[Pierce]]' in her Passive & Magic tree will increase her % chance to hit and ability to strike more than one monster with an arrow or javelin. She has six Passive skills at her disposal and all of them are quite useful to most [[Amazon ]] builds.

The [[Amazon ]] begins equipped with a stack of javelins. There are many types of javelins that you'll find later in the game, with more damaging ones that require more strength and dexterity to equip, and have various max allowed per stack. Check out the [[Amazon ]] specific items page in our Items Database for full information. The Amazon can use her starting equipment to stab or throw, or switch to a bow as soon as she finds one of those. She's good with spears also, a decent early spear find and a point in Jab will make for smooth sailing through Act One at the very least, though you'll need to work to keep enough mana early on.
