I really wouldn't recommend Decoy. That skill is usually meant for a fletcher simply because if a monster is attacking the decoy and you run up and attack it, it has a good chance of turning it's attention to you.

Definitely get dodge and evade (Dunno if they stack or not, I rarely play amazons), and for a spear user definitely get Jab and if the skill with the icon that has spears going in different directions (forget the name, fein or fiend or somethin) gives a synergy to Jab, grab that too. Jab is the end all useful skill to all spear user amazons (especially if you're playing only diablo 2, not D2:LoD, and the reason for this is in the normal version, Jab is two quick thrusts towards an enemy whereas the expansion it's three jabs, being slightly slower and more open to pummeling).

Dexterity usually only affects bows. I'm not entirely positive, but I think dexterity will affect damage on spears a small bit.

oh, and there is something that you should download. It's somewhat of a cheat simply because you can re-allocate skill points and stat points, as well as a huge inventory and horadric cube, as well as an infinite amount of separate pages for your Stash.


However, once you get to the later acts, this is almost a necessity because it gets frustrating without it sometimes. It's called PlugY, google will easily find it.
