This guide covers every detail about how to unlock skills and switch weapons in Diablo IV.
Diablo IV is the fourth edition of the Diablo series and has a bunch of different mechanics from its prequels. Some of them are easy to understand as they are obvious to players, while some are subtler to comprehend such as changing weapons. Diablo Iv has come up with an amazing feature that players can now play with multiple weapons using proper skills to swap them in between fights.
Before we jump on switching the weapons, we first need to understand how the skills can be unlocked and how they work.
How To Unlock The Skills In Diablo IV:
To start swapping your weapons, you first need to unlock your skills by simply leveling up. This will lead you to open your Abilities chart. You will see a skill tree menu from where you can select your preferred skill type which can be either Basic Skills, Core Skills, or Other Skills.
After you have selected your skills, you can then swap the weapons. Here is how you can do it:
How To Switch Weapons In Diablo IV:
Once you have unlocked the skills, you can now equip them on the hotkey by clicking on the Skill Assignment Button from the Abilities Chart. This will provide you with all the information about your unlocked skills. Remember that each class will have its own specific skills for the weapons.
For instance: As a Barbarian, you must acquire a skill that says it “Requires Dual Wielded weapons” in order to utilize your dual-wielded weapons, and if you wish to use a two-handed weapon, you must have a skill that says it “Requires a Two-Handed weapon.”
After getting familiar with the classes, you will get to know that the Barbarian has got plenty of skills. Some will ask you to “Requires any complete Arsenal Weapon” while others would simply say “Physical Damage”. For such options, let the game automatically switch the weapons.
That is how simple it is to swap weapons. Diablo Iv is running on PlayStation 5, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PC.
