Decoy is an Amazon Skill in Diablo 2. Decoy is a component of the Passive and Magic Skills Tree as well as level 24 to become unlocked. Skills usually define a character's playstyle and therefore are divided by Class and Skill Tree. Some Skills have synergies, which offer benefits to other skills on a single Skill Tree.

Amazons derive another advantage while understanding how to fight within the rainforests of the homeland. They learn, through misdirection and deception, to fool attacking forces into thinking there's another Amazon nearby. This subterfuge causes enemies to waste time and effort hunting down false prey as the Amazon moves set for the kill.
