Inner Sight Class: Amazon Required Level: 1 Skill Tree: Passive and Magic Skills Active Cost: 5 Mana Illuminates foes, and lowers their defenses. Damage Type: Magic  |
Inner Sight is an Amazon Skill in Diablo II. It is one of the first skills an Amazon can learn in the Passive and Magic Skills tree.
Lore
The lush canopy of trees covering the Amazon homeland allows little sunlight to reach the ground. To better adapt to their environment, the Amazons have developed a technique whereby they can attune themselves to the life forces in the surrounding area and transfer these energies into a source of luminescence. This enables the Amazon and her companions to see her enemies in shadow and darkness.
General Information
Inner Sight illuminates all enemies near the Amazon, making them easier to see as well as lowering their defense. Inner Sight has a larger area effect than most Curses; it is not difficult to hit every monster in an area with Inner Sight. Inner Sight's defense reduction does not stack with multiple castings, and the illumination timer resets with each cast.
At a very high level, Inner Sight can reduce even Hell difficulty Baal's defense by over half.
Rogue Archer Hirelings often use this spell.
