Anyone know why this class exists? I started one because I thought it sounded fun but she's basically a warrior that is REALLY BAD at being a warrior. She has zero survivabilty while also doing only mediocre amounts of damage. Not to mention stealth just sometimes doesn't work and will break randomly even if there are no monsters in LOS.

dont played with, but you need use stealth out of vision or will break after some time or dont be work. use with 5 yards of distance or out of vision. warrior is a melee based in shield use with medium damage with great survival, assassin can deal much dmg if geared and with more skills of the class (skill with stacks is great).

Running a lvl 41 assassin right now on Hell difficulty just entering Caves. It is starting to get challenging versus poison enhanced and demon archers. Otherwise, my character is a rolling wall of death and fire. I use Battlemasters armor, Sword of Five Suns, and Dragon Breath shield. Heartseeker bow on second armed slot.

Nice, assassin need only one weapon, using a shield reduces damage/dps.

Right, a shield lowers my DPS by like 20 but the amount of survivability you gain makes it worth it. The assassin has crap survivability out the box so I need the shield unless I want to die every pack of monsters.

Not that it matters. I uninstalled this mod because it just isn't fun. There is an extra difficulty setting and you can adjust monster power from 1-10 yet I still can't beat diablo on normal. I've used both the Assassin and Necromancer and they are beyond worthless. Stealth mechanics are pointless in a hack and slash type game and the necromancer's minions take several seconds to raise but then all die instantly. They are even more useless than the minions in D2. Good items are impossible to get because you can't kill things fast enough and gambling is useless. I have gambled thousands of items and yet to see a single set or unique from it. Not to mention there's monsters with multiple immunities... That shit didn't happen until Hell difficulty in D1 and D2. The game was obviously set up for group play which makes unbearable for single player. Unless you enjoy dying constantly and pulling your hair out for hours but I really don't. It actually reminds me of when D3 started and people complained about Inferno difficulty being impossible so Blizzard had to adjust the difficulty. Yeah, that is what needs to happen here. If I can't even beat normal and I'm a veteran player who has played since D1 then you know there's an issue.

Play thernobog, you can play others dificulties be lvl not need kill diablo.

Diablo 1 is the most hard game of the franchise, the proper diablo of diablo 1 is the more hard boss of every franchise.

Assassin is hard for first character, without twinking (take items farmed from other character), necro is hard because Diablo explode the skeletons to easy, but you can maintain rise and casting to kill he, or just use the trick of guardian + teleport trough a wall (wall hughing).

Yep, necro and assassin needs some buffs, necro have Zombies what is useless and in belzebub skeletons are paper (in Tchernobog they are more resilient, but the max is 10).
Buffing Skeletons and trading the Zombies for a Decrepify curse (d2 like) will be enough tl make necromancer fun and good.

Assassin need some AoE skill damage, like a fan of knives. And fusion of Meleficient Strike and Fanaticism in one skill, the space of one skill will be for a Fan of Knifes like skill.

Create a easy character if you are thinking the game much hard, like Sorcerer, farm and play with he and pass items for others, easy.

Get good items is hard with the first character in every diablo game, the others will be fine.

Gambling is usefull for find base items for craft, gamble jewelry and some players gamble for find specific uniques.
Btw you find sets and uniques in gamble D2? The only cons of d1hd and d2 is the crowns and circlets from diablo 2 being much good, while belb not too good.

Why ubearable single? Almost anyone play and go to torment, maybe this is a problem wih you?! (Just saying)

If you want changes go for Tchernobog mod, Belzebub is a conplete build, only tchernobog will be updated.

Yeah, I may come back and roll a sorcerer. People say that is a good first character and will be easier to find items.

sarcrofs · Post by **sarcrofs** » 01 Apr, 2017 11:35

Sorc and Rogue are the most easily characters but Sorc dont need items (+Magic is easily to found in blue items), Rogue are more easily in Torment difficulty but requires items.
