Summary: Little strategy, no technical help
Review: This book is easily read in a couple of hours. It goes over the basic elements of the game in a thourough manner but lacks any hard technical information.

It's useful to read to get some basics, but the internet is a 1000% better source for dealing with character development strategy.

Nothing on the arguments regarding what is best item, what skills are useful in combination or any information on multiplayer strategies.

Summary: Piece of *!@$ (DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY)
Review: This book is just sorry.. I never thought that wasting (money) for this thing would kill me like that. Its better if you just play it normally by yourself or log on and use (an online site). thats the way i had to do it, cuz the book only tells you how to kill diablo with the 5 Diablo 2 characters. They should really put more work into the book, cuz it just plain sucks... I suggest that who ever thinks of buying this book, is way better off by playing it their own way. Thats the way i had to do it, so its just a good suggestion.

Summary: Diablo2 Guide Sinks
Review: This book stinks to put it bluntly. You cant have a stradegy guide to a game thats maps change constantly. It also taks all the fun out of exploring and finding things out for yourself. The only good part about it is: it tells you how much damage a spell does before you can pick on your skill chart. If i could I'd give it Half a star. If i were you I'd buy Diablo 2 and not touch the stradegy guide.

Summary: this guide sux...
Review: this guide sux! it doesnt give any overall characterstrategies, and tells you everything you DONT need to know aboutquests - i dont care how to find the boss, tell me how to kill him! italso makes the bad skills seem good, which caused me to WASTE SKILLPTS on them. it also doesnt show how good some skills are. the guidesdoesnt show the damages for weapons, or even mention exceptionalitems. blizzards official website gives more info, and for free! italso has more pictures, and in color. i thought the guide would giveinformation not on the site - which MOST guides do. but no, it wasjust a waste of money. id get a better guide if i went to kinkos andtold them to print out and bind the whole blizz site.

Summary: Worst Strategy guide ever purchased
Review: This is the worst strategy guide I ever bought: Why?

1. No strategy. Is this spell better than that?? This book will give you no such info.

2. 40% of the book is pictures and tables.

3. Quest info is pretty limited.

4. Read it in 30 minutes (due to lack of content)

The reason I buy strategy guides is to help me understand the logic of the game and help me through some rough spots. This book did not help. I found much better info on the web.

By comparision the Diablo I strategy guide was much better, provided more strategy and it helped me defeat the Butcher. This is the first time I write an online review for a book. And I would not do so if the book was not so lame

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great guide
Review: This Stragey guide was a great help with manuevering this game and understanding the story and new weapons, spells, etc.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: this guide sux...
Review: This strategy guide has several problems.

First, it was outdated since the first patch of Diablo II to 1.03. Several skill tables are just not true anymore.

Then it is not complete. No normal item descriptions, requirements, exceptional items, detailed monster information are just not there.

The Chaos Sanctuary at Blizzard's website is better than this book.

I'm playing Diablo II since its release; both with single player and with realm characters.
