Cast of Characters
Since Diablo II came out in yr 2000, i have played and experimented with various character classes, most notably the amazons and although i haven't taken many of them to impressive levels, i do have quite a couple of interesting and enjoyable mainstream and variant characters (mostly amazons though).
Mirjana - Ama - Mainstream Bowazon
My first character in Diablo 2 is this very fine lady. No restrictions on skills or equipment, she is one of the few mainstream characters i have. With a high damage gothic bow, she is highly effective in all areas with widespread multishot and the elemental arrows as support. Why still lady, you might ask? 'Cos i feel that lady sounds nicer than baroness!
Mirri - Ama - Snob Mageling
Read Baroness Mirri's Hell Report here.
Background : -
Born to nobility, Mirri had been pampered since young, but she always felt that
there something missing in her boring daily routine. Hence she decided to run away from
her wealthy home to seek the way of the mystics and finally became the mistress of the
elements that she is today.
Premise : -
- use of only unique items and the noblest of each kind of skills,
- use doomslinger exclusively from level 10 onwards,
- energy will be pumped at all costs to resemble a mage,
- destiny quest : strip bare naked and kill diablo with just doomslinger.
General Notes : -
One of my favourite characters. Every amazon i have seen uses either multishot and strafe
together with a high damage bow. They always tell me that the ONLY way to play a bowazon
is to pump dex and either devote yourself to multishot / strafe and that the elemental
arrows are not as good since they do not leech. As such, i sought to be different and went
the elemental route, giving rise to an amazon with doomslinger and a massive lvl 26
immolation arrow.
Merivi - Ama - HC Battle Maiden (Executioner)
Background : -
An orphan from birth, Merivi was brought up in a barbarian's encampment and
learnt the art of sword-fighting. Compared to her male counterpart, Merivi was
considerably more agile and flexible but not as strong though. Knowing that one mistake
can cost her her life, she treasures her life greatly and makes great effort to protect
herself from harm.
Premise : -
- hardcore, with a massive investments in life,
- no shields will be used, two-handed swords all the way.
General Notes : -
A hardcore, no-shield battle maiden, this was one of my most precious character. Played
only when my computer is running very smoothly to prevent machine lag deaths, she is now
inching herself closer to Diablo, but is still not quite there yet. For the past three
levels, I have been trying to get her to clear the chaos sanctuary but each time i had to
bail out to save her skin. Hopefully in the near future she would finally earn the title
of "queen".
and many more to come...
