Diablo II Hints
Skills: Traps
What would an Assassin be without traps? Assassins can use traps to cover their retreats, or even as an offensive weapon.
Fire Blast -- This skill can be used as a trap or thrown as a ranged weapon. An area is put to the torch.
Shock Web -- This trap discharges lightning when triggered. It works best in tight places.
Charged Bolt Sentry -- Like the Shock web, but it uses Charged Bolts rather than lightning.
Lightning Sentry -- This is another lightning trap, but one with a very heavy charge.
Death Sentry -- This trap uses the Necromancer Corpse Explosion effect, but then goes further to add lightning.
Wake of Fire -- This trap spews fire on enemies that trip it, but the fire is not very damaging.
Wake of Inferno -- This trap spews very damaging fire on the unlucky enemy that trips the trap.
Blade Sentinel -- This skill causes a rotating disk to cut back and forth between you and a chosen point. This is very good for doorway situations.
Blade Fury -- This skill sends blades into your enemies. They can bounce off the initial hit, and do more damage.
Blade Shield -- This trap circles you, damaging any enemy that approaches you or that you approach.
