Elemental Assassin Build in Diablo 2: Resurrected

The Elemental Assassin build or Phoenix Strike build uses the capability Phoenix Strike. This attack allows Assassins to unleash waves of various elemental attacks while dealing melee damages. This build merges both single-target melee attacks with the screen-filling location of impact (AOE) attacks. Choose this build if you intend to cover the screen with destructive capabilities.

Diablo 2 Resurrected Assassin Best Builds List of what we consider to be the best builds for the Assassin course in Diablo 2. These will include Stat Priority, Skills, Weapons, Armor, and also what Runewords we suggest to utilize.

Strengths of the Elemental Assassin

  • Can take on any elemental immune enemy
  • Unique playstyle with Charge-Up and Finishing Moves
  • Difficult to play, but rewarding to master
  • Not as dependent on specific gear to be successful

Weaknesses of the Elemental Assassin

  • There are more effective Assassin builds (such as Trapsin)
  • Heavy focus on Attack Rating

Skills

  • Phoenix Strike: Add elemental novels to finishing moves.
  • Dragon Talon: Kick your enemies out of your way. Adds a charged-up bonus to the kick
  • Death Sentry: Trap that shoots lightning at your enemies or explodes nearby corpses laying waste to more enemies.
  • Shadow Master: Summon a Powerful Shadow of yourself to fight by your side.
  • Claw Mastery: Improves your skill with claw-class Weapons.
  • A burst of Speed: Increases Attack And Movement Speed For some time

It is not recommended to Level an Assassin as Phoenix Strike. While it may be possible to a degree as a pure melee builds with Fists of Fire as well as Dragon Claw, it will certainly be a much smoother experience if you rather pick to level with Fire Blast as well as Wake of Fire. These 2 skills are effective at an early stage and also can bring an Assassin through the first trouble rather conveniently.

As soon as you reach about degree 40, you can easily reset your skill points and adjustment over to the Elemental Assassin Build you’ll end up the video game off with. Each difficulty of the game, you get one free Skill Reset, by finishing the “Den of Evil” pursuit in Act I.
