Charges and finishers · rule 6	With a claw in each hand, each strikes with its own damage, elements, leech, Crushing Blow, Deadly Strike and the rest. Fists of Fire, Claws of Thunder and Blades of Ice strike with each in turn, and Dragon Claw’s second blow is the left claw’s. Her other blows are the right claw’s.	Gear’s +skills raise what Fists of Fire, Claws of Thunder, Blades of Ice and Phoenix Strike release along Diablo II’s own damage curve for it, as they raise her traps: it is skill damage in Diablo II. Their claw blows grow by the blow’s own curve.
Charges and finishers · rule 7	—	With a claw in each hand, each strikes with its own damage, elements, leech, Crushing Blow, Deadly Strike and the rest. Fists of Fire, Claws of Thunder and Blades of Ice strike with each in turn, and Dragon Claw’s second blow is the left claw’s. Her other blows are the right claw’s.
Traps · rule 2	5 traps stand at once, and one more for each other kind standing. With every place taken, a trap of a deeper evolution takes the place of the shallowest one, and one no deeper waits.	5 traps stand at once, and one more for each other kind standing. With every place taken, a trap of a deeper evolution takes the place of the shallowest one, and one no deeper waits. The last trap of a kind keeps its kind’s place, and Lightning Sentry counts as deep as Death Sentry, so each fires all its shots.
Her shadows · rule 1	One shadow stands at a time: the Shadow Warrior, or the Shadow Master in its place. Monsters crowding it hurt it. When it falls, the next cast raises a new one.	One shadow stands at a time: the Shadow Warrior, or the Shadow Master in its place. Most monsters go for it as for you when it stands nearer them, and strike it, and their missiles hit it. Its life grows in a Terror tier, as every summon’s. When it falls, the next cast raises a new one.
Her shadows · rule 4	As in Diablo II, an aura from your side, your mercenary’s or your gear’s, reaches it within its radius as it reaches you: Defiance makes the monsters crowding it hurt it less, Prayer heals it, Thorns strikes back at what hits it and Fanaticism quickens its attacks (see Mercenaries).	As in Diablo II, an aura from your side, your mercenary’s or your gear’s, reaches it within its radius as it reaches you: Defiance makes physical blows on it hurt less, Prayer heals it, Thorns strikes back at what hits it in melee and Fanaticism quickens its attacks (see Mercenaries).
Shadow Warrior · note 1	Its life is the level you learned. Gear’s +skills raise its damage only.	Its life is Diablo II’s and grows with your level, or the area’s monster level when that is higher. A level-99 hero’s has 18848 life at level 1 and 55819 at level 8. Gear’s +skills raise its damage only.
Shadow Warrior · note 3	—	Its blows strike with your weapon’s damage and your physical damage bonuses, and take your Energy as your spells do.
Phoenix Strike · note 3	Unlike Diablo II, its blow and its meteor, lightning and ice deal 50% more than Diablo II’s, against her other skills.	As in Diablo II, each takes its own synergy: the meteor Fists of Fire’s, the chain lightning Claws of Thunder’s, the chaos ice Blades of Ice’s. Its claw blow takes none.
Phoenix Strike · note 4	The chaos ice freezes a normal monster for 14.8 seconds on Normal. The freeze is shorter on Nightmare and in Hell, on champions, uniques and act bosses, and by the monster’s cold resistance.	Unlike Diablo II, its blow and its meteor, lightning and ice deal 50% more than Diablo II’s, and so do Fists of Fire’s, Claws of Thunder’s and Blades of Ice’s blows and releases: the four stand to each other as in Diablo II.
Phoenix Strike · note 5	Its lightning, ice and meteor’s fire never critically strike.	The chaos ice freezes a normal monster for 14.8 seconds on Normal. The freeze is shorter on Nightmare and in Hell, on champions, uniques and act bosses, and by the monster’s cold resistance.
Phoenix Strike · note 6	—	Its lightning, ice and meteor’s fire never critically strike.
Shadow Master · note 1	Its life stays the same with gear’s +skills, which raise its damage only.	Its life is a maxed Shadow Warrior’s at your level, and stays the same with gear’s +skills, which raise its damage only.
Claw Mastery · note 2	Its critical strike chance adds to the one Dexterity and Attack Rating give.	Its damage is Diablo II’s: +47% at level 1 and +111% at level 5. Gear’s +skills keep adding as much a level past 5.
Claw Mastery · note 3	—	Its critical strike chance adds to the one Dexterity and Attack Rating give.
Fade · note 2	—	As Diablo II’s curse resistance, the curses monsters lay on you last 62% shorter at level 1 and 82% at level 5, never more than 90%.
Venom · note 2	Its poison takes your poison bonuses, not your Attack Damage. It doesn’t add up: a new dose renews the last, the stronger staying.	Its poison is Diablo II’s dose for the level, dealt over 0.4 seconds as Diablo II’s is. Neither your poison bonuses nor your Attack Damage raise it.
Venom · note 3	An item that casts it also adds Diablo II’s Venom poison to each of your weapon blows while it lasts, for any class (Skill systems).	It doesn’t add up: a new dose renews the last, the stronger staying.
Venom · note 4	—	An item that casts it also adds Diablo II’s Venom poison to each of your weapon blows while it lasts, for any class (Skill systems).
Terror tiers · rule 1	In a Terror tier everything her side deals is multiplied by 2.7: her hits, her traps’, her shadow’s and her mercenary’s.	—

How he plays · rule 2	His Curses deal no damage: they weaken monsters, turn them or hold them. Each is offered on the level-up cards 40% as often as his other skills.	Energy raises his spells more than other classes’: each point adds 1.5% to his spells, his summons and Corpse Explosion, where it adds 1% for every other class.
How he plays · rule 3	His Summoning Skills raise skeletons, skeletal mages, a golem and revived monsters. They are spells: Energy raises every summon’s blow, and Strength the physical ones’ too.	His Curses deal no damage: they weaken monsters, turn them or hold them. Each is offered on the level-up cards 40% as often as his other skills.
How he plays · rule 4	Unlike Diablo II, he gains 4 life a level and 6 a point of Vitality, the median class’s, where Diablo II gives him less (see Attributes).	His Summoning Skills raise skeletons, skeletal mages, a golem and revived monsters. They are spells: Energy raises every summon’s blow, and Strength the physical ones’ too.
How he plays · rule 5	—	Unlike Diablo II, he gains 4 life a level and 6 a point of Vitality, the median class’s, where Diablo II gives him less (see Attributes).
Summons and corpses · rule 1	Skeletons and skeletal mages rise from a fresh corpse near you when there is one, else from the ground. Golems need no corpse. Revive raises the corpses themselves.	Skeletons and skeletal mages rise from a fresh corpse within your skills’ reach when there is one, as far as Diablo II’s cursor reaches, else from the ground. Golems need no corpse. Revive raises the corpses themselves, anywhere in that reach.
Summons and corpses · rule 5	As in Diablo II, your summons have more life on Nightmare and more again in Hell. A Terror tier counts as Hell.	As in Diablo II, your summons have more life on Nightmare and more again in Hell. A Terror tier counts as Hell, and raises their life again as much as its monsters hit harder than tier 1’s (see Skill systems). Revived monsters have their tier’s life already.
Summons and corpses · rule 8	Monsters pressed against a summon hurt it now and then, for less than they’d deal you. An act boss pushes through them. A summon left far behind appears at your side.	As in Diablo II, monsters go for whichever of you and your summons is nearest and strike it with their own blows, and their missiles hit the first summon they meet (see Skill systems). An act boss pushes through them. A summon left far behind appears at your side.
Summons and corpses · rule 9	As in Diablo II, auras from your side lift your summons standing within their reach: Prayer heals them, Defiance makes the monsters crowding them hurt them less, Thorns strikes back at those monsters, and Fanaticism quickens their attacks. They come from your items or a Desert Mercenary.	As in Diablo II, auras from your side lift your summons standing within their reach: Prayer heals them, Defiance cuts the physical blows they take, Thorns strikes back at the monsters that hit them, and Fanaticism quickens their attacks.

The first card · rule 1	—	A run’s first card offers one level-1 skill from each tree: Amplify Damage, Teeth, Raise Skeleton. The Necromancer has no exception to it.
Corpse Explosion · note 2	Its share is of the slain monster’s own Diablo II life, without the extra life the game gives the horde as the acts go on.	It deals 70% to 120% of the slain monster’s own Diablo II life at its level, as Diablo II’s does: none of a champion’s or unique’s extra life, nor what the game gives the horde as the acts go on. A corpse higher in level than you blows up for your level over its own, as in Diablo II.
Corpse Explosion · note 3	It has no damage of its own, so gear’s +skills raise its reach and its share as its levels do. Its recharge stays its own level’s.	Its reach is Diablo II’s: 216 at its 8th level, as at Diablo II’s 20 points. Its levels and gear’s +skills raise its reach; its share is Diablo II’s at every level. Its recharge stays its own level’s.
Corpse Explosion · note 5	Monsters its blast kills leave no corpse for it, but Raise Skeleton, Revive and Poison Explosion can still use theirs.	Monsters its blast kills leave corpses the next cast can blow up, as in Diablo II. Its Chain skill modifier blows up the most crowded of them at once, for half the damage.
Iron Maiden · note 2	What comes back is physical damage, and your magic damage bonuses (Energy, Bone Wall) raise it.	What comes back is physical damage, the blow’s share as in Diablo II: your magic damage bonuses (Energy, Bone Wall) don’t raise it.
Iron Maiden · note 3	Blows on your summons come back too. It holds on act bosses and every rank alike.	Melee blows on your summons come back too, but never their missiles or spells, Spite or not. It holds on act bosses and every rank alike.
Clay Golem · note 2	Every golem’s blow also strikes the monsters around its target, for 60% of it.	On Nightmare and Hell, and in the Terror tiers, a golem strikes as Diablo II’s does there, as it stands with its life there: Hell’s blows are 1.43 times Normal’s for a Clay Golem, 1.68 for a Blood Golem, 1.73 for an Iron Golem and 1.76 for a Fire Golem.
Clay Golem · note 3	Strength and Energy raise its blow.	Every golem’s blow also strikes the monsters around its target, for 60% of it.
Clay Golem · note 4	—	Strength and Energy raise its blow.
Iron Golem · note 1	Its Thorns hurts each monster that hurts it, by that monster’s share of the damage, as physical damage.	Its Thorns sends 435% of each melee blow on it back at the monster that struck, as physical damage, as Diablo II’s does at its 20th level. Missiles and spells don’t come back.
Poison Nova · note 2	Energy raises it. A stronger poison already on a monster stays.	Its ring spreads as far as Diablo II’s, 302 around you, in a little over a second.

Wereforms · rule 1	Unlike Diablo II, you hold every form’s bonuses at once. A Werewolf skill (Werewolf, Fury) and a Werebear skill (Werebear, Maul, Shock Wave) together give both forms’ life, Damage Reduced and critical strike chance.	Unlike Diablo II, you hold every form’s bonuses at once. A Werewolf skill (Werewolf, Fury) and a Werebear skill (Werebear, Maul, Shock Wave) together give both forms’ life and critical strike chance, and the Werebear’s Defense.
Wereforms · rule 5	A Werewolf or Werebear your items cast (Wolfhowl’s) counts as one you hold, for any class: it keeps you in its form, with its life, Damage Reduced and critical strike chance.	A Werewolf or Werebear your items cast (Wolfhowl’s) counts as one you hold, for any class: it keeps you in its form, with its life, the Werebear’s Defense and critical strike chance.
Wereforms · rule 7	Each form’s cut to physical damage is Damage Reduced: it adds to your items’, up to the cap of 50%.	The Werebear raises your Defense, as Diablo II’s does, which makes monsters’ blows and arrows miss more (see Stats). The Werewolf gives none, as in Diablo II.
Summons · rule 5	His beasts pass by monsters immune to physical damage, the poison creepers too.	Unlike Diablo II’s, his beasts’ blows take his Strength and his Energy, as his spells and the Necromancer’s summons take Energy.
Summons · rule 6	Monsters pressed against a summon hurt it now and then, for less than they’d deal you. An act boss pushes through them. A summon left far behind appears at your side.	His beasts pass by monsters immune to physical damage, the poison creepers too.
Summons · rule 7	As in Diablo II, an aura from your side, your mercenary’s or your gear’s, reaches your summons within its radius as it reaches you: Defiance makes the monsters crowding them hurt them less, Prayer heals them, Thorns strikes back at what hits them and Fanaticism quickens their attacks (see Mercenaries).	Most monsters go for a beast nearer them than you as they go for you, and strike it, and their missiles hit it. An act boss never does, and pushes through them.

Summons · rule 8	Changing a summon’s skill modifier sends back those raised under the old one; the next casts raise them anew.	A summon left far behind appears at your side.
Summons · rule 9	What your summons kill doesn’t set off your items’ effects on a kill.	As in Diablo II, an aura from your side, your mercenary’s or your gear’s, reaches your summons within its radius as it reaches you: Defiance makes physical blows on them hurt less, Prayer heals them, Thorns strikes back at what hits them in melee and Fanaticism quickens their attacks (see Mercenaries).

Spirit of Barbs · note 3	Each level gear’s +skills add makes its thorns and Heart of Wolverine’s damage and Attack Rating bonuses 15% of their own bigger.	Spirit of Barbs from an item’s charges, such as Wisp Projector’s, works as in Diablo II: only a melee blow sends its share back, onto the monster that struck, 50% and 10% more a charge level (110% at level 7). Gear’s +skills don’t raise it.
Spirit of Barbs · note 4	—	Each level gear’s +skills add makes your own Spirit of Barbs’ thorns and Heart of Wolverine’s damage and Attack Rating bonuses 15% of their own bigger.
Fire Claws · note 2	On a claw or a paw it adds fire beside the physical blow: resisted as fire, and never doubled by a critical strike.	As in Diablo II, each claw and paw blow takes its own fire, as gear’s added fire is: 254 at its fifth level. Each of Diablo II’s points you hold in Firestorm, Molten Boulder, Volcano and Fissure adds 11% to it: a skill at its top level is 20 points, and so are an evolution and each skill it evolved from. It is resisted as fire, and a critical strike never doubles it.
Fire Claws · note 3	Gear’s +Fire Skills raise it, beside +skills.	Unlike Diablo II’s, it is a passive, and its +fire damage is this game’s.
Fire Claws · note 4	—	Gear’s +Fire Skills raise it, beside +skills.
Cyclone Armor · note 1	Here it raises your fire, cold and lightning resistance, within their caps.	As in Diablo II, it absorbs fire, cold and lightning damage up to its amount, +7% for each of Diablo II’s points you hold in Twister, Tornado and Hurricane: a skill at its top level is 20 points, and so are an evolution and each skill it evolved from. Gear’s +skills don’t count for these points. Here it takes 100% of each such hit until it is used up, and grows back whole in 10 seconds.

Monsters’ aim stops where Diablo II’s tables end: they roll to hit against your Defense as at most a level-99 monster at /players 8. Deeper tiers raise their life and damage, not how often they hit you (Stats).
Monsters and drops · rule 5	—	Your mercenary’s and your summons’ life grows with the tier as its monsters’ blows do, so they take about as many blows to fall as on tier 1: about 3 times at tier 30 and 12 times at tier 100. A monster you revived or converted keeps the tier’s own life.
