There are three characters in Diablo, the [[Rogue]], [[Sorcerer]], and [[Warrior]], and three more were added in the Hellfire expansion pack, the [[Monk]], [[Bard]], and [[D1 Barbarian|Barbarian]].

The characters derive different benefits from the points they add to their various attributes. For example, Warriors get more life per vitality point than Sorcerers, who get more mana per magic point than do Warriors. Attribute points from leveling up and elixirs are treated the same as points added by equipment.

Revision as of 20:01, 2 August 2008

There are three characters in Diablo, the Rogue, Sorcerer, and Warrior, and three more were added in the Hellfire expansion pack, the Monk, Bard, and Barbarian. This page provides basic information about the characters. This information can also be found on the individual character pages, along with more context and discussion of their relative strengths and weaknesses.


Starting/Max Stats

The characters in Diablo and Hellfire start off with different stats, and gain different bonuses with each level up. All attributes, life, and mana can be vastly increased with equipment. Each level up also provides 5 attribute points to distribute as you see fit.

  • All four attributes, life, and mana are listed with their starting / maximum values.
  • Attributes turn golden when they have reached their maximum values; life and mana never turn golden.
  • The maximum life and mana values in this table are for a naked character.
  • Characters do not gain their life/mana bonus for reaching level 50.
Class Strength Magic Dexterity Vitality Life Mana Level up Bonus
Warrior 30 / 250 10 / 50 20 / 60 25 / 100 70 / 316 10 / 98 +2 life, +1 mana
Rogue 20 / 55 15 / 70 30 / 250 20 / 80 45 / 201 22 / 173 +2 life, +2 mana
Sorcerer 15 / 45 35 / 250 15 / 85 20 / 80 30 / 138 70 / 596 +1 life, +2 mana
Monk 25 / 150 15 / 80 25 / 150 20 / 80 45 / 201 22 / 183 +2 life, +2 mana
Bard 20 / 120 20 / 120 25 / 120 20 / 100 45 / 221 35 / 231 +2 life, +2 mana
Barbarian 40 / 255 0 / 0 20 / 55 25 / 150 70 / 416 0 / 0 +2 life, +0 mana
+1% resistance to all


Max Stats with Equipment

Maximum stats with equipment. Diablo / Hellfire stats listed for the Warrior, Rogue, and Sorcerer (unique rings were added in HF that allowed greater stat boosts than in D1). These figures do not include the two pieces of unique jewelry that move a % of life/mana to each other.

Class Strength Magic Dexterity Vitality Life Mana
Warrior 425 / 485 225 / 285 225 / 285 265 / 325 796 / 916 533 / 568
Rogue 230 / 290 245 / 305 415 / 475 245 / 305 681 / 741 690 / 718
Sorcerer 220 / 280 425 / 485 250 / 310 245 / 305 618 / 618 1196 / 1216
Monk 385 315 375 305 741 728
Bard 370 360 360 340 761 865
Barbarian 490 235 280 375 1091 470


The characters derive different benefits from the points they add to their various attributes. For example, Warriors get more life per vitality point than Sorcerers, who get more mana per magic point than do Warriors. Attribute points from leveling up and elixirs are treated the same as points added by equipment.

Class from Vitality from Magic Armor Class
Warrior 2 life per vit 1 mana per magic Dex/5 + AC (items)
Rogue 1.5 life per vit 1.5 mana per magic Dex/5 + AC (items)
Sorcerer 1 life per vit 2 mana per magic Dex/5 + AC (items)
Monk 1.5 life per vit 1.5 mana per magic

Plate: Dex/5 + AC (items)
Mail: Dex/5 + AC (items) + .5 x Clvl
Light: Dex/5 + AC (items) + 2 x Clvl
Naked: Dex/5 + AC (items) + 2 x Clvl

Bard 1.5 life per vit 1.75 mana per magic Dex/5 + AC (items)
Barbarian 2.5 vit per life 1 mana per magic Dex/5 + AC (items) + Clvl / 4
Shield AC counts 50%.

* The Barbarian can not add any magic points, but can gain magic and mana from equipment.

* The monk suffers an AC penalty when wearing chain or plate armor. This makes it impossible to raise his AC very high. His highest AC still comes from high defense plate, but his AC will be much lower than any other character's in the same chain or plate armor equipment. (Though much higher when naked or in light armor).

** Unique armor yields higher AC for the Monk, since unique plate is counted as mail, and unique mail as leather.

* Shields only give half AC (rounded up) to Barbarians
