A strong warrior and a well-aimed shooter - for many players, the Amazon in Diablo 2: Resurrected easily become a favorite character. Beautiful and powerful at a distance, she is very good in close combat if you choose the right items for her.
Three branches of her abilities - Mastery of spear and javelin (Javelin and spear skills), ive and Magic Skills (ive and magic skills) and Shooting Skills (Bow and crossbow skills) - with their different combinations, they allow you to create builds for any style of play that suits a particular player.
Lightning Fury Javazon (Lightning Fury Javazon)
Excellent assembly for beginners with tons of electricity damage on several targets at once. Most starter builds are designed to deliver maximum power right from the start. Lightning Fury works a little differently. It is a little more problematic at the initial levels, although it still remains balanced, does not require any special equipment. Closer to level 70 becomes very powerful. This is a real electrospace, rushing through the mobs at amazing speed.
This is one of the best builds for killing large groups of mobs, so the best option for farming at the cow level is not found for the Amazon. But that's not the point. Working with multiple opponents, Javazon deals damage to single monsters comparable to builds that specialize in one-on-one combat, which makes this build one of the most versatile.
Advantages and disadvantages
| pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Very high damage | Slow build potential |
| High speed | Requirements for equipment |
| The assembly is still focused on working with a group of mobs |
Stats
Force (Strength) and Agility (Dexterity) are needed only to the extent that the desired items require. Survival (Vitality) - the main characteristic. Spend points on Energy (Energy) - redundant.
Skills
- Basic assembly skills are in the branch Mastery of spear and javelin (Javelin and spear skills). This Electric Strike (Charged Strike) single target and AoE skill Electrical Storm (Lightning Fury). In combination, they allow you to overcome both "densely populated" areas of the map, as well as encounters with bosses.
- Among ive and Magic Skills (ive and magic skills) you need to find those that enhance power to complement your spear skills. Another good solution would be to pump Valkyrie (Valkyrie), an assistant is never superfluous.
- And here is the thread Shooting Skills (Bow and crossbow skills) can be left alone.
Equipment
Out of order are all those items that increase the level of skills. Then you need to take care of resistance and attack speed. Additional protection will not be superfluous, but it is clearly not a priority, and when choosing armor and weapons, you cannot focus only on it. This is just a nice bonus. Good finds will be Griffin's Eye Circlet (Griffon's Eye) spears Thunderstrike (Thunderstroke) and Storm Shield (Stormshield).
Mercenary
A mercenary is not required in this build at all, but if the player still wants to take one, then they need to choose an Act 2 mercenary for the sake of damage reduction bonuses. But only if it is possible to use one of the two rune words - Insight or infinity.
Multiple-Shot / Guided Arrow Bowazon
The Bowzon is one of Diablo 2's iconic and most enjoyable builds. Based on 2 classic Amazon archery skills: AoE ability Split Arrow (Multiple Shot) and Homing Arrow (Guided Arrow) for solo DPS.
The unique style of play and the most powerful AoE captivate, but a beginner can be confused by the exactingness of the assembly for pumping, the quality of equipment and the need for rune words. However, it's worth it. Arrow separation does not even have to be pumped to the maximum. The attachment a little over 10 points allows you to shoot, covering almost half of the screen with arrows and pulverizing small mobs.
Advantages and disadvantages
| pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| AoE - perhaps the most powerful in the entire game | Average single DPS |
| Huge mobility | Low life |
| Great for cow level farming | Very expensive build |
| Smooth and enjoyable play style | |
| Lots of equipment options |
Features
Force - for equipment only Energy points are not added. And here is the crossroads. In the original assembly, the maximum points goes to Agility and zero in Survival. This gives the maximum DPS for the build. But if the player is ready to spend more time with the bosses, then a couple of points survival rate you can still leave it.
Skills
- Mastery of spear and javelin can be skipped entirely.
- Most of the required skills are in Shooting skills. From here we need Split Arrow and Homing Arrow - this is the main strength and power of the assembly. The number of points you invest depends on equipment and personal preference.
- From ive and magical skills, it is worth taking those skills that can increase survivability due to evasion and all kinds of shields and the main abilities of the Archer. Accordingly, suitable Evasion (Avoid) Faithful Eye (Penetrate) Dodge on the move (Evade) and Decisive Strike (Critical Strike).
Equipment
Here, increasing skills through items has a smaller effect than in other builds, so it is better to focus on attack speed, its accuracy and damage from the main weapon. Need to strive for speed to the mark of 92%. Still need to raise at least up to 75 fire resistance, it will come in handy in the Sanctuary of Chaos. Well, it would also be nice to pay attention to the resistance to electricity. Get it worth it Skull of Invisibility (Stealskull) bow Power of the Winds (Windforce) Mary's kaleidoscope (Mara's Kaleidoscope) and Liar's Hand Gloves (Laying of Hands)
Mercenary
If there is a rune word Faith in weapons, then it is better to opt for an Act 2 mercenary, with a bonus to DPS. Or you can take an assistant with an ice aura from the 1st Act. Without a runeword, he's the better choice, especially if he's well armed.
Freezing Arrow Bowazon (Freezing Arrow Archer)
A powerful archer with solid damage at a distance, while maintaining full control over the battlefield. The favorite skill for those who choose this Amazon build should be Freeze Arrow (Freezing Arrow). The skill provides very high cold damage and freezes enemies in place. Thus, you can turn several selected enemies into ice cubes and, having a good attack speed, calmly finish them off.
Efficiency will increase the alternative source of damage. For this purpose, it has proven itself Exploding Arrow (Exploding Arrow), with its high AoE, allowing you to quickly deal with flocks of mobs.
The assembly offers an exciting game. It is universal and with it you can easily go through most of the game.
Advantages and disadvantages
| pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| High mobility | Demanding on equipment, as mobility is achieved due to it |
| Excellent crowd control | Difficulties with Cold Immune Enemies |
| Impressive damage output | Average protection indicators |
| Smooth play style |
Stats
Force pumped according to the needs of equipment, as well as Agility. Surprisingly, in this build you need to invest in Energy - Freezing arrow "eats" mana as if in itself. From items and pumping you need to get a total somewhere around 275 units Energy. And all the points that remain to invest in Survival.
Skills
- No need to touch the branch Mastery of spear and javelin. This build doesn't need it.
- Of Shooting Skills definitely needed Freeze and Exploding Arrows. They underlie this assembly, complementing each other.
- In the ive and Magic skill tree, you need to focus on those that increase power. Good fit Faithful Eye. It would also be nice to have an assistant in the form of Valkyrie.
Equipment
Everything is classic: items should increase basic skills and attack power. It is worth increasing the cold damage, attack speed. The latter should be brought somewhere up to 75%. Bonuses will make life easier, allowing you to increase HP and mana. Especially mana, because as mentioned above, its costs for this assembly are simply frightening. It's worth raising the defensive stats, but this should not be a reason to use the item, just a nice addition. Good for this build Nightwing Veil helmet (Nightwing's Veil), armor Skin of the Serpent Mage (Skin of the Vipermagi) and Shield the Waking Wall (Lidless Wall).
Mercenary
A helper with damage-reducing bonuses from Act 2 is preferred.
Poison Javazon Build
A very strong Amazon build for the early stages of the game and its mid-game. Somewhere up to level 50, she has no equal, but then difficulties appear. Although Poison Dart (Poison Javelin) and Plague Dart (Plague Javelin) - very powerful abilities, they deal mostly poison damage, and enemies with immunity to it can be a big problem.
It helps to fix this nuance with the later stages in this version of the build Valkyrie. She is able to give the Amazon the time it needs to Plague Dart destroyed the opponents.
Advantages and disadvantages
| pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Awesome starter build | Relies on poison damage. Enemies immune to it can be a source of headaches |
| Pretty high damage even without much equipment investment | In the later stages of the game, the main skills are no longer as effective. |
| To adequately act at later levels, you will have to tinker with equipment and pumping |
Stats
Force и Agility - within the limits necessary to clothe and equip the Amazon. Pro Energy you can not , and most of the points are invested in Survival.
Skills
- The assembly relies on darts, so what about the branch Shooting Skills you can forget.
- The basis of the assembly is a branch Possession of a spear and a dart. It gives the basic ability - Plague Dart and very useful skill. Poison dart.
- From ive and magical skills, you need to take the maximum. are being pumped Valkyrie, Decisive Strike, True Eye, and False Target (decoy).
Equipment
Items should enhance the basic skills of the Amazon. You don't have to worry too much about attack speed because of the cooldown. Plague Darts, but if you come across a worthy item with such a bonus, it will benefit the assembly and enhance other skills. Offensive strength is paramount here, and defensive characteristics are secondary. The arsenal must be included helmet Crown of Ages (Crown of Ages), darts revenge of the titans (Titan's Revenge) Storm Shield (Stormshield) and gloves Dracula's grip (Dracul's Grasp).
Mercenary
Preferred mercenary from Act 2 for damage reduction bonuses.
