Amazon: Rapid fire
The Amazon can repeatedly shoot arrows without having
to press the mouse button constantly. Hold the mouse and run slightly
in any direction. Then quickly, press [Shift]. Do not release
the mouse button. You will immediately stand firm on the ground
while shooting arrows constantly. This is effective for a large
crowd of enemies. It works for the same with other Amazon attacks.
Assassin: Easy kills
Use the following trick when you are in a not so good situation and have Tiger Strike and Fists Of Fire. Charge up Fists Of Fire fully then Tiger Strike fully. While both the charges are spinning around, use a normal attack. This will lower the health of the opponent you attacked and also makes a scatter of fire that starts to kill the rest.
Necromancer: Make a transparent Golem
You need to know Summoning Metal Golem of any level
and a transparent weapon (ethereal weapon). Do the same thing
needed to summon the usual Metal Golem. When he is summoned, he
will be transparent.
Developing a strong Amazon
Try to maximize Multiple Shot, Guided Arrow, Dodge,
and Avoid. Put the rest of the skill points into Critical Strike
and Slow Missiles.
Developing a strong Assassin
First, put a few skill points into Claw Mastery(5-20),
then max out Dragon Tail and Phoenix Strike. You may also want
to optionally max out Weapon Block. Have Dragontail set as your
left click attack, and Phoenix Strike as your right click attack.
Charge up Phoenix Strike, then use Dragon Tail to unleash maximum
fury on your target. Phoenix Strike is obviously the charge up
skill of choice, and Dragontail will bring out the maximum potential
of it, with help from Claw Mastery.
To kill bosses easily, use Tiger Strike (3 Charge), then unleash
Dragon Flight. You can use it for unique monsters, etc. It will
kill Baal in normal mode instantly (if maxed each).
Try to maximize Dragon Tail, Dragon Flight, Claw Mastery, Weapon
Block, Fade, Wake of Fire, and Blade Shield. Put the rest of the
skill points into anything you desire.
Developing a strong Barbarian
Gain some levels and give some of your skill points
to any of the masteries that you desire. Put the points on the
class of the weapon that you think you will be using during the
game. When you get to level 18, put your points on Iron Skin to
maximize your defense so that monsters have a harder time hitting
you. At level 30, maximize the skill Natural Resistance. Your
Barbarian should be good at blocking attacks and have Whirlwind
to kill monsters that become packed around you.
Try to maximize Whirlwind, Sword Mastery (or whatever Mastery
you want to use), Iron Skin, Natural Resistance, Battle Orders,
and Battle Command. Put the rest of the skill points into Increase
Stamina and Increase Speed.
Start out only putting skill points into masterings that you want
to use thought the game. When you get to level 12, put one point
into Stamina +% and go back to masterings until level 18. Then,
put all skill points there after into Iron Skin until maxed out.
After that, max out the mastery. Then, put the points anywhere
desired.
Developing a strong Druid
When playing as a Druid that specializes in elemental
spells, note that you must have the elemental abilities "Hurricane"
and "Tornado" before you are allowed to learn "Armageddon".
Also, the "Summon Grizzly" spell is much more powerful
than it seems; even if you do not specialize in summons, you should
still learn it. You may also need to know "Summon Spirit
Wolf" and "Summon Dire Wolf" also.
Do not bother putting any points into summoning for a Druid. Instead,
put more into skills such as Molten Boulder and Heart of Wolverine
than Werewolf or Werebear, and save skill points for more better
skills such as Grizzly Bears and Armageddon. They are much more
useful. For a weapon, use a strong one handed sword (War Sword
or exceptional sword is best) that is socketed and perhaps a Maul
or Polearm. Also try to get the unique weapon Earthshaker.
Use the following trick to develop a speed tank Druid. You must
do everything exactly. For your stats, every level switch between
Strength and Vitality, none into Energy, and at level 30 put points
into Dexterity until level 40. This is a werewolf Druid, as they
are very fast. Until level 30 switch between Werewolf and Lycantrophy.
Once you are level 30, max out Fury and then work on maximizing
Werewolf and Lycantrophy. This should be done at about level 65.
Then, work on getting the Grizzly Bear, and maximize it. Once
that is done and you still want to level, try to maximize Heart
Of The Wolverine Spirit. Try to get full Aldurs Set and socket
the weapon with 3 Perfect Topaz, because lightning damage is already
on the mace. Your damage will be very high and you can kill almost
anything in one Fury hit. A level 50 speed tank Druid should be
able to kill a level 84 Barbarian.
Try to maximize Cyclone Armor, Twister, Hurricane, Oak Sage, and
Spirit of the Barbs. Put the rest of the skill points into anything
you desire.
To develop a strong Druid, you must first put your skill points
on anything until you reach level 18. At level 18, begin putting
your skill points on Fissure. As soon as you are at a high enough
level to summon a bear, start putting your skill points on it.
Max both of those skills out and you should be able to clear a
normal cow level at about level 25; even before you max them out.
Stay away from your enemies and let your Fissure and your bear
kill them.
Put all of your skill points into Firestorm until level 6. If
you plan on dueling, put a point into Arctic Blast. Then, max
out Molten Boulder and put points into Volcano or Fissure and
the perquisites for Summon Grizzly. Once you reach level 30, max
out Summon Grizzly then Volcano or Fissure. Use Molten Boulder
for regular attacks and Volcano or Fissure for Bosses and monsters
immune to Knockback.

Developing a strong Paladin
You must be careful not to waste any skill points.
This Paladin revolves mostly around Defensive and some Offensive
Auras, and no combat skills (as none of them are very good). Choose
whichever aura suits you up until level 6. After that point, be
sure to put at least 3 skill points in each of the Resistance
Auras. After this is accomplished, you need at least 10 skill
points in Defiance and at least 6 or 7 into Cleansing. Now, up
until level 30, you can either boost up your defensive skills
(put 2 points into Redemption at level 30), or put some into new
skills of your choice (preferably start boosting Offensive Auras).
Next, you should only put 1 skill point into Thorns. It is not
a very good aura, and you will need it for other auras. Avoid
Holy Fire at all costs. Only 1 point is needed. You should then
put 4 or 5 points into Holy Freeze. You can now get to the good
Auras such as Conviction and Fantasm. These are the two auras
that should be maxed out. No aura should be left out. Use Resistance
auras for enchanted enemies, Defiance for extra strong, Conviction
for stone skin, Holy Freeze for extra fast, Cleansing for cursed,
and Fantasm for teleportation. Note: This will require some time
to develop.
Try to maximize Zeal, Charge, Vengance, Holy Shield, and Holy
Freeze. Put the rest of the skill points into anything you desire.
To make a virtually unbeatable dueling Paladin, you need only
maximize three skills: Zeal, Thorns, and Salvation. Zeal is very
helpful in dealing more damage more quickly when going toe to
toe. If you have poison damage on your weapon, then Zeal is even
more effective as the damage multiplies. Also when in a melee
battle, for example with a Barbarian, use Thorns aura. At level
20, Thorns returns over 1,000% of damage back to the attacker.
When dueling a Sorceress, switch out Thorns for Salvation. This
will virtually eliminate all elemental damage done by her magic,
and aside from chasing her down while she teleports, will make
the battle a lot easier. Another helpful hint, especially to work
with the Thorns aura, is to hire an Act 2 normal Defensive mercenary.
They use Defiance, which when used with Thorns will drastically
reduce the damage you take while still returning a lethal amount
to your attacker. Using this combination ends most melee battles
on the first hit, whether it is you or your mercenary. This combo
is also helpful for defeating unique monsters and level Bosses,
such as Andariel, and especially Duriel.
Max out Holy Freeze, Zeal, Redemption, Thorns, and Salvation.
In a cluster of enemies, use Holy Freeze on Right Click
and Zeal on Left Click. Holy Freeze will slow down all
of the enemies, and Zeal will speed up your attacks (Fanaticism
will also work, but not as well). Use Salvation if there are any
groups of Undead (for example, Diablo's Sanctuary). Use Redemption
to get your Health and Mana back to full. When up against a powerful
enemy/Boss, use Thorns to turn their attack back against them.
With Thorns maxed out, Diablo should kill himself in one hit under
the normal difficulty setting. Make sure you have enough health
to withstand the attack.
Once you start, get to level 3 before doing the Den Of Evil. At
level 2, learn Sacrifice. At level 3, learn an offensive aura,
Thorns or Might. At level 12, put only four points on your Zeal.
You are now done with your combat skills. Put all of your skills
on your offensive auras evenly until you get to Holy Shock. Max
out Holy Shock, then worry about equipment -- for example, Zacarum's
Hand Septor, Herald of Zacarum shield, Nagel's Ring, Milabrega's
Robe armor, and the rest consisting of items that add to resists.
For boots, try to find Poison Resist or Sigon's Boots. Frostbite
Gloves are also recommended. Your Paladin should be able to kill
a level 80 melee character easily or a level 60 magic or ranged
weapon character easily. To make your Paladin even stronger, find
socketed helmets and add Perfect Topazes to add to your Magic
Find. By doing this you can get even better equipment.
Developing a strong Sorceress
The best skills for a good Sorceress consist of Frozen
Orb for usual attacks, Nova for when you are tightly packed/surrounded,
and Fire Wall for when you are outside of a large group of enemies.
Masteries are good for amplifying damage.
Use the following trick to create a good Sorceress dueler. First,
choose which element you wish to use (for example, Fire). When
making a Fire Sorceress you should max Fire Bolt until you reach
level 20. Then, max Fire Ball until level 40. Next, max Fire Mastery
until level 60. Then put a high number of points to Warmth so
that your Mana will replenish faster. You should also put a few
points to Teleport Energy Shield and Telekinesis. You should also
invest a few points in an attack from a different element for
times when you may encounter fire immunes. Try and get good Runes
like Um Ist and Pul so that you can trade for items like Fire
Skiller Charms, the Oculus, and Spirit Monarch Shield. It helps
to have friends that have doubles of good sorceress items so you
can get them cheap. If you choose to be a Lightning Sorceress,
then change the skills to Charged Bolt Lightning, Nova Chain Lightning,
and Thunderstorm Lighting mastery and put points to Enegry Shield,
Telekinesis, and Teleport. When making a Cold Sorceress, max out
Icebolt, Iceblast, Chilling Armor, Cold Mastery, Blizzard, and
Frost Nova.
Slide as a Necromancer
Make sure you know raise Skeleton/Magi. Make sure there
are not any corpses near you. Click on a far edge of the screen.
When you start walking or running towards that location, use the
Raise spell on the opposite side of the screen. It will look as
though you are sliding.
Developing a strong Necromancer
Try to maximize Iron Maiden, Bone Armor, Bone Prison,
and Poison Nova. Put the rest of the skill points into Skeleton
Mastery, Golem Mastery, Raise Skeletal Mage, and Fire Golem.
Developing a strong Sorceress
Try to maximize Warmth, Nova, Teleport, Thunder Storm,
Lightning Mastery, and Chilling Armor. Put the rest of the skill
points into anything you desire.
Godly Sorceress duel
You need a fire sorceress. Increase all fire skills
(Fire Wall works well), then teach her one Teleport and one Frost
Nova. When you are ready, first use your Teleport to get to her.
Quickly use your Frost Nova (making her slow down), then use your
Fire Wall, which does lots of damage per second.
