Strategy Guide to those who are new to the realms of Diablo II and Lord of Distruction
'If you have played Diablo 1, you know about the different classes Warrior, Rogue and Sorcerer and think that the classes in Diablo II and its Add-On are played similarly - but don't let Blizzard kid you, it is different than how it may appear: Don't play either the Amazon or the Sorceress or the Barbarian at all when you are new to the game because these classes are incredible hard to play even for experts, instead go ahead and choose the druid if you want to be a magic character, for his elemental magics are unmatched in the game, or choose a necromancer if you want a melee fighter that can kill very fast, and if you want a real mass killer that can easily sweep the whole cow level in one quick rush, choose the paladin - beware of the assassin at first and only try her out when you managed to finish the game with the elemental druid, the necromancer and the paladin, for she's already a good piece harder but not quite as hard as the Amazon, Barbarian or Sorceress.'
additional: 'Make sure you follow my instructions, or the game may get too hard for you and you might quit in frustration. Have Fun!'

Quote:Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow, or it can crash! Be water, my friend...- Bruce Lee
