Diablo 2 Shrines and Wells
The many realms of Sanctuary contain wonders of all kinds. Some of the most mysterious are the Shrines and Wells scattered across the lands. These Shrines and Wells are always beneficial, but you should choose the best times to use them. Note: Fire Shrines will damage yourself and other players. Highlight each Shrine to display a descriptive name. Left-click on a Shrine or Well to invoke its magical effect. Shrine effects wear off after a period of time. Your character can be under the influence of only one Shrine at a time, and activating a second Shrine replaces the effect of the first. Most Wells and some Shrines recharge after a brief period of time and can then be used again.
Not all Shrines have an Icon above them on this page or in the game. Sometimes it is easy to pass up these Shrines without an Icon because you think you have already used them, or when they have been used by someone else in a multiplayer game. Don't pass these Shrines up. Check every Shrine you see and you may find a valuable Gem Shrine.
Be sure to run your mouse over a Shrine before clicking on it to see what kind of Shrine you have found. Be very careful around special Shrines so that you do not use them until you are ready. Avoid clicking on a Monster Shrine until you are ready to fight a Unique Monster or Champion. Don't click on a Gem Shrine before you have the proper Gem ready to upgrade.
Shrines that have a duration and Wells can be used to counter or remove the effects of a monster's curse, such as those casted by "Cursed" Unique Monsters, and Oblivion Knights. Also monsters and hostile players can remove a curse when they try to cast another curse over the current curse.

Notes
Shrines only affect the player that first touches the Shrine except in the case of the Fire Shrine.
Skill Shrine - This Shrine will not give you points in skills that you do not already have at least one point in, through skill points or items.
Gem Shrines - Upgrades a random gem. If you do not have a Gem, the Gem Shrine will give you a random chipped Gem. You can use a Gem Shrine to upgrade a Gem to the next level. Perfect Gems cannot be upgraded. If you have several Gems in your inventory, a random Gem will be upgraded. If you want a specific Gem upgraded, drop all the Gems in your inventory except the one you want to upgrade. Then click on the Gem Shrine. Gem Shrines will not upgrade Gems that are already placed in armor or weapons.
What do Gem Shrines look like?
They vary in appearance depending what area you are in and which act you are playing.
Will a Gem Shrine upgrade a Gem that is already socketed?
No.
Where can I find Gem Shrines?
Gem Shrines are rare and randomly located. Some areas have more Shrines than others. Perhaps you should scan these areas to search for Gem Shrines.
Poison Shrines
Resist Poison Shrines will prevent the character from being poisoned at all. The character will be made immune to poison *unless* the character is already poisoned. No new poison will take effect.
Wells
Wells refill your Life, Mana and Stamina. Wells will also cure Poison and remove Curses. Touch the Well once to receive a partial refill (if it is full), touch it again to use the rest of the well. Wells have a much faster recharge time than other Shrines. Note the locations of wells and come back to them when you need to use them. A useful strategy is to lead monsters back to a Well and fight until you're low on health or mana, then quickly click on the Shrine for a refill. Wells also completely replenish your mercenary and minions to full Life.
Wells can differ in appearance from area to area, but you can always find one by the cleansing water that a well will always contain.
Note: If all three of your attributes are full (Health, Mana, and Stamina) you will not be able to use the well.
