NAME DESCRIPTION
Dueling Hint For Barbarian While dueling with a barb, use yells as normal. Go back and talk to akara. Next go out to the dueling spot. Instead of bezerk, the move u should be using to kill most enemys, use whirlwind,it is way easier to hit someone with. now wait for someone to come to u unless ure dueling a foh pali or a zon. On those types you have to be aggressive and charge at them. Put items that give you speed when facing them. When whirlwinding, dont click on them but close to them. If u click on them you will keep whirlwinding them untill you run out of mana. Try to hit your enemy with the tip of your wepon because thats where it does the most damage. Barbs are hard to duel with at first because they have no long range attacks but in my opinion they are the best duelers in the hands of experts.
Dueling Hint For Assassin

When dueling with an assassin, go out of town and hit an enemy 3 times with tiger strike charge-up, then go back to the dueling spot and with dragon wing, (the teleport kick) attack someone. This should do much more damage then a regular dragon wing kick.

Sound Chaos During the game, multiplayer or single, press enter and type soundchaosdebug. You will hear many voices of characters in the game. Type soundchaosdebug again to turn it off.
Frozen Death If you are just starting out as a sorc, the you can use this. It only works with the sorceress. When you level up a few times, go to new skill. Go to ice magick, and there will be a shield with a glimmer. Click that and you have ice shield. This manked anything that hits you turn to ice. When you hit it back, it shatters and melts. You must reuse it every once in a while, because it wears off after about 4 minutes. You can use any other spell while this is activated, too. Best in mob battles.
Antidote Potion Recipe

Put a strangling gas potion and a healing potion in the horadric cube. Transmute them to get an antidote potion.

Arrow/Bolt Formula This horadric cube formula is only really useful if you are travelling with a bow or crossbow, and run out of arrows/bolts and you don't feel like town portaling back to town. 2 quivers of arrows make 1 quiver of bolts. 2 quivers of bolts then equal one quiver of arrows.
3 Gems Of Same Type Put 3 gems of same type and level of perfection (chipped, flawed, etc) into the horadric cube. Hit transmute and you get a gem of the next level of perfection. Example 3 chipped make 1 flawed.
3 Amulet Ring Formula In the horadric cube put 3 amulets in. Transmute for 1 ring. This is good if you have 3 bad ones and you don't need the money. The inverse works too. I mean 3 rings equals one amulet. There is a potential for good amulets/rings. The best I've gotten was a plus 1 to all skill levels and 4 percent life steal.
Cloak Em' And Smoke Em' This is a useful trick with the assasin. When you run into a large group of monsters use cloak of shadows. Then lay as many traps as you can right in the midst of the monsters. Before the cloak of shadow runs out most of the monsters will be dead. Note: This is much better if you of a shadow warrior. The shadow warrior will launch/hrow her own traps too. This will not work with the shadow master because masters can use any skill. The master will probably just run up and start hitting the monsters instead of doing traps.
Assassin Lock Open If you are an assasin you don't need keys to open locked chests. Just click on the locked chest and it will be open. Some people who don't read the manual don't know this.
Act V Mountain Quest In act V on the quest fighting the barbarian ancients on Arriat Summit you can't leave without the ancients resetting. In nightmare or hell mode they gain ablities. You can use the reset to your advantage. If they have an ability you don't like to fight against use a town portal. When you come back you can start the battle over and they'll have different abilities.
Imbue Redo To make sure you get a good imbue take your save file and copy it to another place( folder, disk, cd, etc.) Then have charsi imbue whatever you want. If you don't like the results delete the save in the diablo2 folder and put the other one in. The repeat until you like the item you get.
Cow Level After you have beaten Baal go back to act one. If you have Wirts leg from tristam put it in the horadric cube. If not go back to tristam and get it. Put a tome of town portal with at least one scroll in it in the horadric cube too. Click transmute and a red portal will open. Go through and prepare for the cow level. Its full of hell bovines and the cow king. Make sure you are in the same act that you beat Baal in.
Early Sockected Hint/cheat Early in the game find a good socketed weopen with 2 or more sockets. If you put a rune or jewel that does poison damage and a emarald or just 2 emarlads or 2 runes,etc. the poison dameage will increase dramatically. For example 2 chipped emaralds which do 6 poison damage each together do 23 poison damage. This allows you in the first act and early in the second act to kill most normal monsters with great ease
Weird Prismatic Amulet

Put a perfect gem of every type except skull(in some patched versions you need the skull) in the horadric cube. Hit transmute. You will get an amulet with all resists set to random amounts. Ex.

Fire rst 18
Cold rst 12
Light rst 9
Poison rst 4

You will also get a random affect like life steal, extra stats, abilities, etc.

Horadric Socketing Recipe Put 3 perfect skulls, a Stone of Jordan (a unique ring), and a rare item and the rare item will have one socket after the transmuting.
Horadric Cube Rune Formulas If you put in 3 runes of the same kind you will get 1 new type of rune. EXP. 3 EL runes+horadric cube= 1 ELD rune, 3 TIR runes+horadric cube+1 TAL rune.
A Cube Formula Full rejuvination is really handy because it restores health (and mana) instantly instead of a bit at a time so if ya didn't know . 3 mana + 3 healing + = 1 rejuvination 3 rejuvination is 1 full rej. But even better is: 3 mana + 3 healing + 1 gem = full rejuvination!!!
