Overview of all 7 Classes in Diablo 2 Resurrected and their Skills
In Diablo 2, there are 7 different character classes, each with its own skill-set, lore and class-specific items. Also, each class has different skill trees in its arsenal. The skills that are in the same tree often synergize with each other, encouraging the player to focus mostly on one specific skill tab.
As you progress through the game, you earn skill points that you can spend in the skills you desire. This allows the creation of numerous kinds of builds, offering a different playstyle even if playing the same class.
In addition, there are various items that support the majority of the characters’ builds. All 7 classes have the same 4 attributes (Strength, Dexterity, Vitality, and Energy) that you can adjust according to your style of play.
