What on earth is good about the spearazon? =o The java skills for bosses maybe, but she's horrendous in just about every other situation when compared to what other character types can do.

If she could actually shoot torpedoes, she would be the greatest character ever. But she can't, so never mind.
Download the newest patch (1.57b) from the Median site. You'll probably have to download from FileFront if you're not a FilePlanet member. The file is a .rar file, so you will need the .rar archiver. Once you have the file extracted, make a copy of the original patch file (d2patch.mpq), and stick it somewhere in its own folder (possibly a folder called "old d2patch"), so that you can get it back after you switch to the mod. Then move the new d2patch.mpq from the .rar file that you downloaded, and put it into your DII folder. Run DII. It should look much brighter.
Screenshots to follow if you still do not understand.
You need a good spear, first. This could very much be a problem, because the best spears are either crafted or the uniques. Spearazons are not well suited for beginners. Fortunately for you, the newest patch has a very high Unique drop rate (at least, compared to old versions).
I'm enjoying the spearazon, it's a little to simple for me so I'm playing with a loving Unholy Paly, though Holy > Unholy definetly! I still like the pretty lights everywhere ^^
What is this? Holy and unHoly Paladins?
Holy Paladins mostly use melee tactics and holy fire skills (fire element damage). They have two major skills, Retribute and Retaliate that deal the most of their damage, which is more or less physical and fire.
Unholy Paladins act more like casters at close range. They have elemental skills that are activated by a skill called Arcane Strike (this actually powers up the damage dealt). They have poison, fire, cold, and lightning spells, but terrible physical damage.
There's also the Judgement Paladin, who uses Hammers.
Awesomesauce!
Take note! if you choose to be one or the other either Holy or Unholy will be severed from raw skill point dealing selection.
That's cool!
