Bow/Weapon, in which amazons can’t specialise.A hybrid is a character that actively uses weapons from two different proficiencies or one weapon from a proficiency and one weapon in which she is not proficient. The Hybrid: Next to these pure classes we have the mixture class, the Hybrid. This means no spears, no javelins and no bows or crossbows. Tankazon: The pure Tankazon is an amazon that does not use weapons in which she can be proficient. Javazon: The pure Javazon is an amazon that only uses javelin-type weapons.

We distinguish amazons in several classes related to the weapons which she actively uses throughout the game. Main Classesįirst an important explanation of amazon classes. Sometimes experimenting is only allowed within bounds though, but you’ll know when you read the subclass themes. There are countless possibilities open, so feel free to experiment. If you are not familiar with their names, you can check their statistics on or the Arreat Summit and hopefully see what’s so special about them (explaining every little detail of the items will make this guide tenfold in size). I will most of the time not list the exact reasons for indicating them either. It is merely a guideline, because people are overall familiar with these items. They are often unique items or set-items.

One note in advance that whenever I give a list of items, it is only to give some options. First I will have to explain the main classes and then we’ll dive into the subclasses. I felt it was time to elaborate the descriptions of the subclasses I listed and discuss the evolution that has taken place. A lot of changes have taken place, skillwise and itemwise. Last time I tried to describe them I kind of forgot the old ways and just listed what was more accepted nowadays, many years later.
