Jab is an Amazon Skill in Diablo II.

Lore

Hunting in the dense rain forests of the Amazon Islands is fraught with many obstacles. Confining overgrowth and fierce indigenous animals conspire to make combat difficult, if not impossible. Early in training, Amazon spear-women must learn to overcome these conditions. By honing their hunting techniques to the point where they are able to deliver many powerful spear thrusts in rapid succession, they learn to finish off one opponent before turning to slay another. The Jab is the most basic of the skills designed to accomplish this tactic.

General Information

Synergies

This ability causes the user to attack three times quickly within the time span of a normal attack, although each of them is a bit less powerful than the normal attack up until level 6.

Jab is very powerful and can be much useful for killing Immune (physical immune monsters notwithstanding) monsters for Amazons who choose to focus on elemental Spear/Javelin Skills. Jab is uninterruptible, which gives it immunity from the Dodge/Avoid/Evade bug.

Desert Mercenaries have access to this skill, as well as some monsters.
