Elemental Spearzon (Amazon) Build for Diablo 2 Resurrected
The "Elemental Spearzon" Amazon is a new Build made viable thanks to the 2.4 Patch Update. With the new Infinity Item Bases opening up, Charged strike is no longer just being used by Javelin Amazons but now can be used by Spearzons as well, freeing up the Mercenary slot away from Infinity and allowing many more options.
Introduction
An Elemental Spearzon can be played in a variety of ways now thanks to some recent changes in Diablo 2 Resurrected! While a Physical Build would be using Fend and Impale, with Infinity now buildable in a Spear the Amazon can actually run Spears with Charged Strike
You can check the viability of this build in PvM by consulting our PvM Tier List.

Elemental Spearzon Breakpoints
In Diablo 2, stats that affect action speed (known as frames) for attacking, casting, blocking, and recovering from a hit can almost never be taken literally. For example, gaining 10% Increased Attack Speed from an item will not necessarily translate into 10% faster attacks. To achieve faster actions, certain breakpoints must be reached, which vary for every class. The tables below list how much of a given stat is required to actually improve the action speed of the class for the stated action.
Faster Hit Recovery Breakpoints
Hit Recovery Breakpoints | ||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Frames to perform action | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 |
Faster Hit Recovery required to reach frame | 0% | 5% | 10% | 16% | 24% | 37% | 54% | 86% | 152% | 360% |
