Diablo 2 Items FAQ
The expansion has introduced new unique items, so naturally some questions arise.

All characters in Diablo 2 will have a throwing skill, allowing them to throw various objects at a distance dealing large amount of damage.

Except all the throwing weapons we mentioned before there is one more item that can be thrown at a target causing a reasonable amount of damage:

Throwing Potions

They are much more expensive than the other thrown weapons. There are two types of them: explosive and poison ones. The explosive potions proved of very limited value since they lack of area effect. The gas potions seem much more usefuly when attacking a group of monsters.

New Diablo 2 uniques
The Lord of Destruction expansion has introduced new unique items, especially in the exceptional unique and elite unique categories.
