|style="color:#C0C0C0;"|[[Image:Wiki_edit.jpg|right]]'''You can help with Sections!''' 
'''{{WikiTitle}}''' is a great resource for everyone, and is built by members of the community adding small or big contributions. Time or English skills are not constraints that should keep you from signing up to the project, as some members might have plenty of time but using English as a second language, and others have skills but only time to correct grammar! 
 
You can help out in the wiki by either filling out [[:Category:Stubs|Incomplete Pages]] (also known as "[[Stubs]]"). You can also check out the '''[[Community Portal]]''' for information on the '''current wiki focus'''. 
 
'''Your Account''' 
Your account will work on both the Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 wikis here at {{WikiTitle}}, if you '''[[Special:Userlogin|sign up]]''' on one of them. If you have an account on any other Diablo site, such as [https://www.diabloii.net/ Diabloii.Net], you will not automatically be able to use that username; you will have to sign up for {{WikiTitle}} separately. 
 
'''Getting help''' 
When you have signed up, this is how you get help:
* Our homegrown '''[[Help]]''' section includes almost anything you would like to know.
* The [[Help:Markup|Wiki Markup]] page is great if it's a specific piece of "wiki code" you need.
* The [[Help:FAQ|FAQ]] answers a lot of further questions.
* The [[{{WikiTitle}}_talk:Community_Portal|Community Portal Discussion]] is a good place to ask questions to be answered by the community.
* The [http://forums.diabloii.net/forumdisplay.php?f=127 DiabloWiki Support Forum] can also be used to get help from sysops and members.
* There is a [http://diablo.incgamers.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=127| support forum] also, if you prefer. 
 
'''External Links''' 
If you want to search for more help on wikis externally, this is three good articles to check out:
* [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Configuration_settings Configuration settings list]
* [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:FAQ MediaWiki FAQ]

Gem

2007-03-05T21:05:23Z

Rushster: /* Gem Stats (Classic) */

=Introduction=

Functionless on their own, gems possess great power when utilized with a weapon, shield, or helm, bestowing potent magical enchantments upon the item and its wearer. Socketed armor is added in the Expansion, but all items have identical stats in either armor or helms. Gems, once socketed, add special bonuses to the items. Check the stats pages for specifics.

There are seven different types of gems:
<blockquote>
Amethysts 
Diamonds 
Emeralds 
Rubies 
Sapphires 
Skull Gems 
Topazes
</blockquote>
All have different effects depending on what sort of item they are "socketed" in. There are five levels of quality for gems: from worst to best they are
<blockquote>
chipped 
flawed 
normal 
flawless 
perfect
</blockquote>
Gems can not be bought, only found, though this changed several times during development. Better quality gems are found as you progress in the game.

* In Diablo II the system is rigid: Chipped gems in Acts 1 and 2 and Flawed in Acts 3 and 4, with very rare exceptions of monsters (High Council usually) dropping Normals. In Nightmare and Hell all gems dropped are normal.
* In the Expansion there is more variety. Gem quality dropped is based on Mlvl, and though it progresses at about the same rate, you can find some Normal gems in Acts 4 and 5, with occasional Flawless. Nightmare and Hell are the same, Normal and some Flawless.

=Socketed Items=

Only weapons, helms, and shields can have sockets, with body armor added to the list in the Expansion. No boots, gloves, belts, or jewelry will ever be socketed, not even Uniques.

* The number of sockets is fixed in Diablo II, all helms have 2, and all shields and weapons have 3, unless the item is only 2 spaces tall in inventory (bucklers, daggers) in which case it has but two sockets.
* In the Expansion items vary a lot more in sockets. Helms can have from 1-4, Body armor 1-4, weapons 1-6, and shields 1-4. Full details elsewhere in our Items section.

Once a gem is inserted into a socket, it is there forever, and can't be upgraded in quality, so be sure you want to put a gem in before you do.

In Diablo II only normal items are socketed, and you can find or buy them.

In the Expansion you can only buy magical equipment, so can never buy anything socketed from the NPCs (unless someone else in your game sells a socketed item, and you then buy it from the NPC). Sockets can be found on normal or superior items, and can be made in magical, rare, unique, and set items, either with Horadric Cube recipes, or as an Act Five quest reward. The maximum number of sockets is never more than the spaces an item takes up in inventory, and you can only get 1 socket in Rares, and only one or sometimes two in Sets and Uniques. Two or sometimes three in magical items.

=Upgrading Gems=

Three gems of the same type combine in the [[:Category:Horadric Cube|Horadric Cube]] to upgrade one level of quality.

Gem shrines are found only rarely, but they are worth a click, as they'll upgrade one gem from your inventory one level. It's best to carry around a flawless gem of whatever type you want upgraded and be sure it's the only gem in your inventory when you click the shrine. If you don't have any gems, or only have perfect gems, one random chipped gem will be dropped.

=Gem Effects=

So what do gems do? Their effects vary, but are logical: Gems placed into weapons generally add damage, while gems in shields provide resistance, and gems in helms/armor add to hit points or other attributes. Exactly how much benefit a socketed gem provides depends on the quality of the gem.

[[Image:gemmed-hat.jpg|left]]You can see how gems look in an item here in this shot. The sockets display down the left side of the image for all socketed items, and if they are filled the gem is visible there, rather than an empty hole. Socketed gems in an item glow nicely, as you can see from the sapphires in this helm, and the info detailing their effects is displayed in blue, below the normal stats for the item. Socketed items in the game appear brightly-colored, and their appearance is based on the first gem socketed. An item with an Amethyst first, then two Emeralds will be purple, not green. When you socket an item it just drops in and the item changes color; there isn't any flashy light show.

The bonuses from gems of the same type stack, so if you had two rubies in a sword, the fire damage would be added together. It is arithmetic, never geometric, so if you had say three sapphires, all of them chilling for 3 seconds, you wouldn't move up to freezing the monster, you'd just chill it for longer. The same goes for other gems. For example rubies add fire damage to your attack. Three perfect rubies would do a lot of fire damage, but they wouldn't create a small firewall under the monster.

Gems in shields do nothing for the Paladin's Smite attack.

=Gem Stats (Expansion)=

==Amethysts==

Amethysts are somewhat popular in helms for the added strength. They aren't much used other than that.

==Diamonds==

Diamonds are among the most useful of gems in the game, very popular socketed in shields. Generally tower (or pavise), hence the "3DT" referring to three (always perfect) diamonds in a tower shield.

==Emeralds==

Emeralds stack oddly, adding much more damage than you would expect. Multiple of the same type, the duration adds, the damage is squared. 2 = 4x damage over 2 seconds, 3 = 9x damage over 3 seconds, etc. Adding other types of poison damage (from jewels in armor/helm/shield, poison charms, unique armor, etc) in creates enormous damage.

Six perfect emeralds in a weapon yields (29.3 x 36) 1054.8 poison damage over six seconds. Big socketed emeralds with other poison damage is the best way to deal with most Physical Immune monsters.

==Sapphires==

Sapphires are very useful in a weapon, especially a starter bow with one along with two perfect sapphires. The bonus mana in a helm is nice, but less useful than skulls for mana regen, for most characters. Cold time stacks from all equipment and skills, and is cut by 1/2 on Nightmare and 1/4 on Hell.

==Topazes==

Topaz are useful in starter weapons for the relatively large lightning damage, with no requirements to use it. They are also popular in helms for item finding.

Gem

Rushster: /* Topazes */

=Introduction=

Functionless on their own, gems possess great power when utilized with a weapon, shield, or helm, bestowing potent magical enchantments upon the item and its wearer. Socketed armor is added in the Expansion, but all items have identical stats in either armor or helms. Gems, once socketed, add special bonuses to the items. Check the stats pages for specifics.

There are seven different types of gems:
<blockquote>
Amethysts 
Diamonds 
Emeralds 
Rubies 
Sapphires 
Skull Gems 
Topazes
</blockquote>
All have different effects depending on what sort of item they are "socketed" in. There are five levels of quality for gems: from worst to best they are
<blockquote>
chipped 
flawed 
normal 
flawless 
perfect
</blockquote>
Gems can not be bought, only found, though this changed several times during development. Better quality gems are found as you progress in the game.

* In Diablo II the system is rigid: Chipped gems in Acts 1 and 2 and Flawed in Acts 3 and 4, with very rare exceptions of monsters (High Council usually) dropping Normals. In Nightmare and Hell all gems dropped are normal.
* In the Expansion there is more variety. Gem quality dropped is based on Mlvl, and though it progresses at about the same rate, you can find some Normal gems in Acts 4 and 5, with occasional Flawless. Nightmare and Hell are the same, Normal and some Flawless.

=Socketed Items=

Only weapons, helms, and shields can have sockets, with body armor added to the list in the Expansion. No boots, gloves, belts, or jewelry will ever be socketed, not even Uniques.

* The number of sockets is fixed in Diablo II, all helms have 2, and all shields and weapons have 3, unless the item is only 2 spaces tall in inventory (bucklers, daggers) in which case it has but two sockets.
* In the Expansion items vary a lot more in sockets. Helms can have from 1-4, Body armor 1-4, weapons 1-6, and shields 1-4. Full details elsewhere in our Items section.

Once a gem is inserted into a socket, it is there forever, and can't be upgraded in quality, so be sure you want to put a gem in before you do.

In Diablo II only normal items are socketed, and you can find or buy them.

In the Expansion you can only buy magical equipment, so can never buy anything socketed from the NPCs (unless someone else in your game sells a socketed item, and you then buy it from the NPC). Sockets can be found on normal or superior items, and can be made in magical, rare, unique, and set items, either with Horadric Cube recipes, or as an Act Five quest reward. The maximum number of sockets is never more than the spaces an item takes up in inventory, and you can only get 1 socket in Rares, and only one or sometimes two in Sets and Uniques. Two or sometimes three in magical items.

=Upgrading Gems=

Three gems of the same type combine in the [[:Category:Horadric Cube|Horadric Cube]] to upgrade one level of quality.

Gem shrines are found only rarely, but they are worth a click, as they'll upgrade one gem from your inventory one level. It's best to carry around a flawless gem of whatever type you want upgraded and be sure it's the only gem in your inventory when you click the shrine. If you don't have any gems, or only have perfect gems, one random chipped gem will be dropped.

=Gem Effects=

So what do gems do? Their effects vary, but are logical: Gems placed into weapons generally add damage, while gems in shields provide resistance, and gems in helms/armor add to hit points or other attributes. Exactly how much benefit a socketed gem provides depends on the quality of the gem.

[[Image:gemmed-hat.jpg|left]]You can see how gems look in an item here in this shot. The sockets display down the left side of the image for all socketed items, and if they are filled the gem is visible there, rather than an empty hole. Socketed gems in an item glow nicely, as you can see from the sapphires in this helm, and the info detailing their effects is displayed in blue, below the normal stats for the item. Socketed items in the game appear brightly-colored, and their appearance is based on the first gem socketed. An item with an Amethyst first, then two Emeralds will be purple, not green. When you socket an item it just drops in and the item changes color; there isn't any flashy light show.

The bonuses from gems of the same type stack, so if you had two rubies in a sword, the fire damage would be added together. It is arithmetic, never geometric, so if you had say three sapphires, all of them chilling for 3 seconds, you wouldn't move up to freezing the monster, you'd just chill it for longer. The same goes for other gems. For example rubies add fire damage to your attack. Three perfect rubies would do a lot of fire damage, but they wouldn't create a small firewall under the monster.

Gems in shields do nothing for the Paladin's Smite attack.

=Gem Stats (Expansion)=

==Amethysts==

Amethysts are somewhat popular in helms for the added strength. They aren't much used other than that.

==Diamonds==

Diamonds are among the most useful of gems in the game, very popular socketed in shields. Generally tower (or pavise), hence the "3DT" referring to three (always perfect) diamonds in a tower shield.

==Emeralds==

Emeralds stack oddly, adding much more damage than you would expect. Multiple of the same type, the duration adds, the damage is squared. 2 = 4x damage over 2 seconds, 3 = 9x damage over 3 seconds, etc. Adding other types of poison damage (from jewels in armor/helm/shield, poison charms, unique armor, etc) in creates enormous damage.

Six perfect emeralds in a weapon yields (29.3 x 36) 1054.8 poison damage over six seconds. Big socketed emeralds with other poison damage is the best way to deal with most Physical Immune monsters.

==Sapphires==

Sapphires are very useful in a weapon, especially a starter bow with one along with two perfect sapphires. The bonus mana in a helm is nice, but less useful than skulls for mana regen, for most characters. Cold time stacks from all equipment and skills, and is cut by 1/2 on Nightmare and 1/4 on Hell.

==Topazes==

Topaz are useful in starter weapons for the relatively large lightning damage, with no requirements to use it. They are also popular in helms for item finding.

Gem

Rushster: /* Gem Stats (Expansion) */

=Introduction=

Functionless on their own, gems possess great power when utilized with a weapon, shield, or helm, bestowing potent magical enchantments upon the item and its wearer. Socketed armor is added in the Expansion, but all items have identical stats in either armor or helms. Gems, once socketed, add special bonuses to the items. Check the stats pages for specifics.

There are seven different types of gems:
<blockquote>
Amethysts 
Diamonds 
Emeralds 
Rubies 
Sapphires 
Skull Gems 
Topazes
</blockquote>
All have different effects depending on what sort of item they are "socketed" in. There are five levels of quality for gems: from worst to best they are
<blockquote>
chipped 
flawed 
normal 
flawless 
perfect
</blockquote>
Gems can not be bought, only found, though this changed several times during development. Better quality gems are found as you progress in the game.

* In Diablo II the system is rigid: Chipped gems in Acts 1 and 2 and Flawed in Acts 3 and 4, with very rare exceptions of monsters (High Council usually) dropping Normals. In Nightmare and Hell all gems dropped are normal.
* In the Expansion there is more variety. Gem quality dropped is based on Mlvl, and though it progresses at about the same rate, you can find some Normal gems in Acts 4 and 5, with occasional Flawless. Nightmare and Hell are the same, Normal and some Flawless.

=Socketed Items=

Only weapons, helms, and shields can have sockets, with body armor added to the list in the Expansion. No boots, gloves, belts, or jewelry will ever be socketed, not even Uniques.

* The number of sockets is fixed in Diablo II, all helms have 2, and all shields and weapons have 3, unless the item is only 2 spaces tall in inventory (bucklers, daggers) in which case it has but two sockets.
* In the Expansion items vary a lot more in sockets. Helms can have from 1-4, Body armor 1-4, weapons 1-6, and shields 1-4. Full details elsewhere in our Items section.

Once a gem is inserted into a socket, it is there forever, and can't be upgraded in quality, so be sure you want to put a gem in before you do.

In Diablo II only normal items are socketed, and you can find or buy them.

In the Expansion you can only buy magical equipment, so can never buy anything socketed from the NPCs (unless someone else in your game sells a socketed item, and you then buy it from the NPC). Sockets can be found on normal or superior items, and can be made in magical, rare, unique, and set items, either with Horadric Cube recipes, or as an Act Five quest reward. The maximum number of sockets is never more than the spaces an item takes up in inventory, and you can only get 1 socket in Rares, and only one or sometimes two in Sets and Uniques. Two or sometimes three in magical items.

=Upgrading Gems=

Three gems of the same type combine in the [[:Category:Horadric Cube|Horadric Cube]] to upgrade one level of quality.

Gem shrines are found only rarely, but they are worth a click, as they'll upgrade one gem from your inventory one level. It's best to carry around a flawless gem of whatever type you want upgraded and be sure it's the only gem in your inventory when you click the shrine. If you don't have any gems, or only have perfect gems, one random chipped gem will be dropped.

=Gem Effects=

So what do gems do? Their effects vary, but are logical: Gems placed into weapons generally add damage, while gems in shields provide resistance, and gems in helms/armor add to hit points or other attributes. Exactly how much benefit a socketed gem provides depends on the quality of the gem.

[[Image:gemmed-hat.jpg|left]]You can see how gems look in an item here in this shot. The sockets display down the left side of the image for all socketed items, and if they are filled the gem is visible there, rather than an empty hole. Socketed gems in an item glow nicely, as you can see from the sapphires in this helm, and the info detailing their effects is displayed in blue, below the normal stats for the item. Socketed items in the game appear brightly-colored, and their appearance is based on the first gem socketed. An item with an Amethyst first, then two Emeralds will be purple, not green. When you socket an item it just drops in and the item changes color; there isn't any flashy light show.

The bonuses from gems of the same type stack, so if you had two rubies in a sword, the fire damage would be added together. It is arithmetic, never geometric, so if you had say three sapphires, all of them chilling for 3 seconds, you wouldn't move up to freezing the monster, you'd just chill it for longer. The same goes for other gems. For example rubies add fire damage to your attack. Three perfect rubies would do a lot of fire damage, but they wouldn't create a small firewall under the monster.

Gems in shields do nothing for the Paladin's Smite attack.

=Gem Stats (Expansion)=

==Amethysts==

Amethysts are somewhat popular in helms for the added strength. They aren't much used other than that.

==Diamonds==

Diamonds are among the most useful of gems in the game, very popular socketed in shields. Generally tower (or pavise), hence the "3DT" referring to three (always perfect) diamonds in a tower shield.

==Emeralds==

Emeralds stack oddly, adding much more damage than you would expect. Multiple of the same type, the duration adds, the damage is squared. 2 = 4x damage over 2 seconds, 3 = 9x damage over 3 seconds, etc. Adding other types of poison damage (from jewels in armor/helm/shield, poison charms, unique armor, etc) in creates enormous damage.

Six perfect emeralds in a weapon yields (29.3 x 36) 1054.8 poison damage over six seconds. Big socketed emeralds with other poison damage is the best way to deal with most Physical Immune monsters.

==Sapphires==

Sapphires are very useful in a weapon, especially a starter bow with one along with two perfect sapphires. The bonus mana in a helm is nice, but less useful than skulls for mana regen, for most characters. Cold time stacks from all equipment and skills, and is cut by 1/2 on Nightmare and 1/4 on Hell.

==Topazes==

Topaz are useful in starter weapons for the relatively large lightning damage, with no requirements to use it. They are also popular in helms for item finding.

Wands

2007-03-05T21:00:46Z

Rushster: /* Introduction */

=Introduction=

Wands are not class specific, but they are most appropriate for Necromancers. Sorceresses use them as well in Diablo II, in order to have a one-handed weapon and a shield, and bonuses such as +mana and faster cast are useful for a Sorceress as well as a Necromancer. The [[Sorceress Items| Sorc-only Orbs]] should be more useful than wands though, so likely you'll see only Necromancers using wands after a short time in the Expansion.

Wands are a type of blunt weapon and do 150% damage to the undead, but as they are virtually never used for melee, this isn't an important feature.

* '''Inherent Bonuses''': Wands can have +1-3 skill points to up to three Necromancer skills from any of his skill trees.
* '''Damage Bonus''': This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. All wands are 100 Str which means that every point you have in strength adds .1% of your weapon's damage as a bonus.
* '''Item Level''': Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item, and it factors in when you get to gamble for this item type as well. Check Mlvls on Darkness.
* '''Weapon Speed''': A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10. Each 10 is equivalent to an SIAS item. Characters are abbreviated to their first letter, with Am = Amazon and As = Assassin.
* '''Range''': Goes from 1 (least) to 5 (most), and is identical for all weapon types. I.E. a 3 sword = a 3 spear = a 3 hammer. All wands have 1 range, same as most one-handed melee weapons.

Throwing

2007-03-05T20:37:01Z

Rushster:

=Introduction=

Throwing Weapons come in a number of varieties in Diablo II. There are throwing knives, axes, potions, and many types of javelins. All but the potions can be used as melee weapons, and all the weapons have higher damage when thrown than when used for melee.

* Click here for all [[Javelins]].
* Click here for [[Potions#Throwing Potions|Throwing Potions]].
* See also [[Amazon Items|Amazon-only items]].

The Barbarian's Throwing Mastery works with throwing axes, knives, and javelins when they are thrown. It does not work for melee. His Axe Mastery works with throwing axes during melee, but not when throwing. He has no Javelin Mastery, and throwing knives are Dagger Class, not Sword Class, so he has no Mastery to help there. His best bet is to use Axe Mastery and melee with throwing axes, or keep a weapon handy in the weapon switch slot in the Expansion.

* '''Damage Bonus''': This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. All throwing weapons in D2 are 100 Str, while in D2X they are 50Str/50Dex.
* '''Item Level''': Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item, and it factors in when you get to gamble for this item type as well. Check full Mlvl stats on Darkness.
* '''Weapon Speed''': A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower by one frame per 10.
* '''Stack Size''': Applies only to throwing weapons. Min = the smallest stack a monster can drop. Max = the largest a stack can possibly be. Throwing weapons stack only on others of their exact same type and mods, if magical.
* '''Range''': Melee only. From 1 (least) to 5 (most) in D2X. Numbers are fixed across item classes: a 3 javelin = a 3 sword = a 3 hammer, etc.

All characters throw at the same rate, and this speed is not affected by increased attack speed modifiers. Those only effect melee attack rates.

No Throwing weapons are socketable in D2 or D2X.

=DiabloII v LoD Differences=

One big change to throwing weapons from D2 to D2X is how their '''damage bonus''' works. In D2 throwing weapons are all 100 Str, which means for every point in Str you can add 1% of the weapon damage in bonus. In the Expansion throwing weapons are all 50/50 Str/Dex, so for every point in Str or Dex you can add .5% of the weapon damage. This means in the Expansion you will do more damage than in D2 if your Dex is higher than your Str. Since most throwing weapons require a lot of Dexterity, this is more natural, while making it harder to get really big damage, since you need 2 stat points to do the damage bonus of 1 strength point in Diablo II.

'''Durability''' on throwing weapons is a new addition in D2X. In D2 all throwing weapons are indestructible when used for melee. In Diablo II they all have durability (though it's not displayed in the game) which they lose at 1/3 the normal melee weapon rate when used for melee fighting. When the durability is expended one throwing weapon vanishes from the stack, just as if you'd thrown it.

|}

<nowiki>*</nowiki> Durability on throwing weapons is only in the Expansion. Throwing weapons when used for melee combat lose durability, but at 1/3 the rate of normal weapons. When an item loses full durability it vanishes from the stack, just as if you'd thrown it.

=Exceptional=

Exceptional Throwing Weapons can be found only in Nightmare and Hell in Diablo II. In D2X they can be found in Acts 4-5 Normal, and then all through Nightmare and Hell.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> Durability on throwing weapons is only in the Expansion. Throwing weapons when used for melee combat lose durability, but at 1/3 the rate of normal weapons. When an item loses full durability it vanishes from the stack, just as if you'd thrown it.
<nowiki>**</nowiki> All Exceptional items are Clvl 25 in Diablo II. Some lower-quality ones are slightly lower in D2X.

=Elite=

Elite Throwing Weapons can be found only in the Expansion. Monsters will drop them in Acts 4-5 Nightmare, and then all through Hell difficulty.

Swords

2007-03-05T20:13:49Z

Rushster:

=Introduction=

One of the most popular armaments in history, the sword is arguably the most deadly yet versatile weapon available to a fighter. Comprised of a blade and hilt, the hilt comprising of a pommel for offsetting the weight of the blade, and a grip for holding it straight. Many designs include a guard that protects the fingers and knuckles. The blade itself can either be curved or straight; curved, convex swords like the falchion and the scimitar, are used for slashing attacks, and thus are only sharpened on one side of the blade. The straight, double-edged blades such as the broadsword or the mighty claymore can be used to both thrust and slash. The tip of the blade is usually tapered off to aid in thrusting, but many designs have simple flat ends to aid in balance.

Swords have great variety in range, damage, Attack Rate, and durability. The small dagger is among the weakest weapons in the game, while the largest two-handed swords can rival axes and polearms for dealing massive damage, and having a long reach and plenty of durability as well. As with all melee weapons, the Barbarian is very skillful with a sword, and has a Sword Mastery skill. The other characters are all decent with swords as well, and the Necromancer even has a melee skill that only works with a dagger.

Swords possess nearly every magical modifier you can find on a weapon, and may be socketed as well. There are also numerous unique, Rare, and Set Item swords. Also, swords do extra damage to some types of monsters, and have a penalty in damage to the undead. This is more of an issue in Diablo II, since there are undead all through the game, rather than just being represented by the weaker monsters in the upper levels.

=One-Handed Swords=

Larger and more damaging than daggers, but smaller than the might two-handed swords. One of the most popular weapons in the game, swords are used by all character types for their fast striking and solid damage. Swords deal no specially high damage to any type of monster, but they are consistently damage to all, and can be found in a very large variety. Barbarians tend to prefer the larger range and damage of two-handed swords, which they can wield one-handed. All other characters have to stick to the one-handed swords if they wish to use a shield at the same time.

* '''Damage Bonus''': This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Each 100 points in that stat doubles your weapon's total physical damage. All swords are 100 Str, which means every point in strength adds 1% to your total weapon damage. 100 points in Str doubles the weapon damage.
* '''Item Level''': Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item, and it factors in when you get to gamble for this item type as well.
* '''Weapon Speed''': A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10. Each 10 is equivalent to an SIAS item. Characters are abbreviated to their first letter, with Am = Amazon and As = Assassin.
* '''Range''': Goes from 1 (least) to 5 (most), and is identical for all weapon types. I.E. a 3 sword = a 3 spear = a 3 hammer.

=Two-Handed Swords=

Two-handed swords, as the name implies, must be wielded with two hands by six of the seven characters, precluding the use of a shield with them. Barbarians are the one exception to the rule, as they can wield all 2H swords in one hand, even dual-wielding them, though the 2H swords do much lower damage when wielding in one-hand only. They have greater range though, and still a quite fast attack rate, and most Barbarians go this route, especially to get the 3 range for their Whirlwind. If your Barbarian is mostly a melee fighter, and doesn't need more range with WW, any sword or mace is usable, with damage and attack speed being the important factors then.

* '''Damage Bonus''': This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Each 100 points in that stat doubles your weapon's total physical damage. All swords are 100 Str, which means every point in strength adds 1% to your total weapon damage. 100 points in Str doubles the weapon damage.

Staves

2007-03-02T02:26:56Z

Rushster: /* Elite */

=Introduction=

Staves, though they can provide nice bonuses to spells, are very little used in Diablo II, since they make carrying a shield impossible. A shield is mandatory for a high-level Sorceress, for the blocking, and usually the huge three-diamond socketed resistance. In the Expansion shields are much less useful for blocking, doing virtually nothing if you don't add Dexterity. A Clvl 50+ Sorceress who hasn't added a lot of Dexterity will have just 5% blocking, which is just 5% more than the same Sorc carrying a staff.

So the biggest trade off are the +skills on a staff vs the big +resistance or other mods you can get from a shield. There would be a much bigger debate if not for Orbs, which can give the same bonus skills and other nice mods, and still be used with a shield. Still, a very good staff, or one of the excellent Unique staves is not a bad choice for a Sorceress, if she can make up the resistance she'd usually have on a shield.

Constructed of wood with some leather or metal bindings for added strength, are not especially useful melee weapons. They do poor damage, and are not effective for dealing damage through any sort of quality armor. Their greatest attribute is their ability to carry bonus spell levels for the Sorceress, and she can turn them to use as a bashing weapon, but her Attack Rating will usually prevent her from making contact a sufficient percent of the time, and her damage will be low in any event.

Also, staves with good skill level bonuses on them tend to be very expensive, and the enormous repair costs for these weapons is another reason to not damage it on the hard skulls of monsters.

* '''Inherent bonuses''': Staves can have +1-3 points to up to three skills from any of her skill trees. Bonus skills greatly increase the repair price of a staff though, so resist the urge to do any melee with a good staff.

* '''Damage Bonus''': This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Each 100 points in that stat doubles your weapon's total physical damage. All Axes are 100 Str, which means every 100 points in Str doubles the weapon damage.

* '''Item Level''': Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item, and it factors in when you get to gamble for this item type as well.

* '''Weapon Speed''': A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10. Each 10 is equivalent to an SIAS item. Characters are abbreviated to their first letter, with Am = Amazon and As = Assassin.

* '''Range''': Goes from 1 (least) to 5 (most), and is identical for all weapon types. I.E. a 3 sword = a 3 spear = a 3 hammer.

* All Staves are wielded in two hands.

Spears

2007-03-02T01:23:41Z

Rushster:

=Introduction=

The Amazon has a full skill tree devoted to Spear and Javelin skills, and her Spear and Javelin Skill Tab makes her powerful with spears, though spearazons and javazons lag behind Bowazons in overall success, due mostly to the lack of quality spear or javelin skills. Still, using a good spear with 1 point in Jab is a very good way to get a new Bowazon going, and with a decent Pike and some mana leech, any Amazon can power through normal difficulty very quickly.

Though spears and javelins are in the same weapon class, they are very different types of weapons. Javelins are throwing weapons, held one-handed, and are non-magical and non-socketable. Spears are larger, heavier, and are melee weapons which must be wielded with two hands, and may be socketable, or have a full range of magical modifiers.

Their striking speed is not as fast as smaller weapons such as swords or blunts, but they are not so slow as the massive axes or polearms, and will not have very high strength or dexterity requirements, making them useful weapons for every character class.

Larger and heavier than javelins, spears are melee weapons that do far higher damage than javelins, but can not be thrown. Spears are stabbed with from the side, and have excellent reach, able to hit monsters on the other side of a friendly player, or to stab a monster while it is still too far away to strike you.

All spears require two hands to wield them.

The Amazon can only use the melee skills from her Spear and Javelin Skill Tab with spears; the javelin/throwing skills are inaccessible while wielding this item type. The Barbarian's Spear Mastery boosts his damage and Attack Rating with spears, and he can of course use his Combat Skills such as Bash or Frenzy or Whirlwind for still higher damage.

* '''Damage Bonus''': This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Each 100 points in that stat doubles your weapon's total physical damage. All Spears are 100 Str, which means every 100 points in Str doubles the weapon's total physical damage.

* '''Item Level''': Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item, and it factors in when you get to gamble for this item type as well. Check Mlvls on Darkness.

* '''Weapon Speed''': A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10. Each 10 is equivalent to an SIAS item. Characters are abbreviated to their first letter, with Am = Amazon and As = Assassin.

* '''Range''': Goes from 1 (least) to 5 (most), and is identical for all weapon types. I.E. a 3 sword = a 3 spear = a 3 hammer.
