Faster Hit Recoveryįaster Hit Recovery (FHR) relies on 'breakpoints' to calculate how many frames it takes to recover from being struck. The Amazon doesn't naturally have access to the Teleport skill, so adding Faster Run/Walk (FRW) via gear and charms is required. If you're going for max block using something like the unique Stormshield shield, you will need more points into Dexterity. Add enough to equip your gear of choice javelins can require a significant amount.

While the physical portion of the attacks do look to AR, the lightning portion does not.

You don't have to worry as much about pumping Dexterity for Attack Rating (AR) due to how Lightning Fury and Charged Strike work. Put just enough points into Strength and Dexterity to wear your gear, then put the rest into Vitality. Having more life means you'll stay alive longer in battle. Increased attack speed, Faster Hit Recovery, Faster Run/Walk, resistances, Dexterity, and Vitality are extra important here.

I play with Charged Strike on left-click and Lightning Fury on right-click when playing on PC. Once you do respec, focus on those same five skills, as these are all synergies of each other. If you're doing enough damage to move efficiently through the game, keep up with your beginner skills and continue pumping points into Charged Strike, Lightning Fury, Lightning Bolt, Lightning Strike, and Power Strike. Feel free to sink these into whatever skills you feel are doing the most damage.Īt level 35, many people will respec and go purely into the Amazon's most powerful skills. You will also receive a bunch of extra skill points from quests completed as you work your way through the game.

Level 6-9: Power Strike and Poison Javelin.

The first 34 levels or so that your Amazon sees will look something like this: These free respecs are valuable, so use them only when absolutely necessary. You must talk to Akara to receive your optional respec choosing to do so resets all your attributes and skill points to be reassigned. Diablo 2: Resurrected offers one free 'respec' per difficulty when you complete the Den of Evil quest in Act 1. At the start of the game it's recommended that you use Power Strike and Poison Javelin skills for best effect.ĭon't worry too much about wasting points on early skills that you won't be using later in the game. However, these end-game skills aren't immediately available. I'm focusing on the Javazon build in this guide, which focuses on Charged Strike and Lightning Fury to get you through Hell.
