Low Level Runewords D2



Diablo 2 Low Level Runewords. 4% Chance To Cast Level 5 Slow Missiles When Struck 2% Chance To Cast level 15 Valkyrie On Striking. Hybrid RW benefits from unusual rune bonuses. This allows you to make stronger builds and/or use endgame runewords on a very low level. Most of the hybrids are legit and 100% perfect (perf base + max stats) but please pay attention to the description, some are so rare that we can't guarantee it.

Easily understandable and accessible, the Javazon is reliable in any number of situations. Sub-builds like Lighting Javazon are the first choice for Diablo 2 Javazon PvM builds.

Why play a Javazon in Diablo 2?

As easily flexible to damage preference and play style as a Bowazon, a Javazon can do it all. Outnumbered or 1v1, it deals tons of damage while having excellent mobility and above average survivability.

Using skills from the passive and “Javelin and Spear” skill trees, a Javazon can easily conquer lower level difficulties with only a few expensive items.

Javazons have to hit everyone, harder, so the must have passives are Penetrate and Pierce. Pierce is necessary because a Javazon is Attack Rating reliant. Even if they don’t max Pierce while leveling, they’ll have a lot of items that add points to Pierce.

Our guide will focus on two of the most well known builds: the mob clearing Lighting Javazon and the rare Poison Javazon.

Lightning Javazons “Queen of Clear”

Ruthlessly effective, this build has a high output of damage against both 1v1 targets and large mobs of monsters. Using the skills “Lightning Fury” or “Charged Strike”, the Javazon is both efficiently sustainable while dealing earthshattering amounts of damage.

Ridiculous damage means ridiculously difficult to find items right?

Well unlike most builds that offer this amount of damage, the Lightning Javazon requires little in terms of expensive equipment. She’s accessible because she doesn’t require hard to find loot, and only requires two maxed skills. This leaves plenty of points and equipment variations for theory crafters to play with.

But what if the monsters have Lightning Resistance or Immunity?

The Javazon uses the Jab skill to Jab them, quickly and repeatedly, in the face.
She’s also the best mob clearer in the game, in open areas. The Lightning Javazon farms incredibly fast, well into late game. For instance, she’ll clear Baal, the Cow Level, and Chaos Sanctuary faster than 90% of other builds.

Skill Tree Focus

Spear and Javelin: Points only go into Charged Strike, Lightning Strike, Lightning Fury, and Power Strike. Charged Strike and Lightning Fury are the only skills that need to be maxed, with a safe number of levels in Jab just in case.
The Lightning Javazon (LJ) only needs two skills to conquer Hell mode and these are Lighting Fury and Charged Strike. They have the best returns on level investment, and highest DPS.

Passive and Magic: Some players argue that the only needed skills from this tree are Critical Strike, Pierce, and Penetrate. These exponentially increase the LJ’s damage potential, leaving more points over to invest in Jab or another elemental skill.
Others think avoidance skills like Dodge, Avoid, and Evade make the LJ more survivable.

Stats Priorities

Strength is prioritized until your Javazon can use a Monarch shield.

Dexterity is prioritized until your Javazon can use Titan’s Revenge.

Vitality, like other Amazons, is invested in with remaining points. Javazons are versatile because of their tankiness, extra HP never hurt.

Energy is kept at base levels, if you’re having trouble filling your Mana up use items and potions instead.

Required Gear

The Lightning Javazon requires only a few pieces of gear to make life easier:

o The Rune word ‘Spirit’ socketed in a Monarch shield, one that has been cubed multiple times until it has the 35% reduced cast time.

o Titan’s Revenge, arguably the best Javazon spear, is needed as well.

Other than those two items, players are encouraged to finish the build to their preference or with the list provided at the end. Remember you’re focusing on snagging items that grant bonus resistances always! Move speed keeps you alive, so items that boost your run speed are always welcome.

Items that boost health, mana or life leech will keep your Javazon in the fight longer. Attack speed and items that add levels to appropriate skills are great for DPS.

If you have the money, patience, or both any item that reduces Lightning Resistance in enemies is clutch. As a result, making you wish you could put an ‘Infinity’ Rune word on everything fast.

Poison Javazons (Check out the Build here)

The Fendazon hybrid, Poison Javazons deal consistent damage but are a rare sight these days. She can switch from steadily picking apart an enemy in 1v1 to clearing mobs with the best of builds. This is because a Poison Javazon dumps points in Fend rather than Jab like a Lightning Javazon.

She has fewer skill requirements, because she doesn’t go as far into the skill tree. As a result, this excess of points can be invested into skills common in a Fendazon build. These options make a Poison Javazon (PJ) much more versatile because of its inherent customizability.
Her versatility is limited only by the player’s style. She’s able to effectively dole out melee and ranged damage. Is the PJ for you?
Invest points that would be otherwise wasted on Lightning damage and focus them in Passive and Magic skills.

Mercenary

As always an Act 2, desert mercenary is the best teammate for any Amazon. Auras like “Holy Freeze” or “Prayer” for faster Mana regeneration are unequaled. Additionally, you can also equip them with Rune words like ‘Infinity’ and ‘Insight’.
‘Insight’ helps along with a “Prayer” mercenary for amazing sustainability from the quick Mana regen. On the other hand, ‘Infinity’ lowers enemy Lightning Resistance by 85%, making it coveted by any LJ player.
