1.09 Ranged & Caster Weapons
Ranged and caster weapons fared slightly better than their melee counterparts over the course of Diablo 2's reign. While the unique melee weapons were quickly outclassed by rare damage potential, the caster classes and several amazon builds were more dependent on skill levels and/or unusual item traits which could only be found by unique equipment. For these classes, the raw item damage was meaningless in the face of bonus skills or unusual item properties, such as piercing shots, unique only mods, or unusual percentile elemental damage bonuses.
