Weapon Changes in Diablo 4 Season 5 – Weapon Restrictions Per Class, New Inherent Weapon Affixes

All 16 New Class-Specific Legendary Aspects in Diablo 4 Season 5 Unique Item Changes Coming to Diablo 4 in Season 5

Alongside the changes to Class restrictions for Weapon Types are a number of changes to almost all of the Weapon Inherent Affixes – the baseline stat that is tied to a specific Weapon Type such as Critical Strike Damage. Many of these have been removed, such as Cooldown Reduction for Focuses and Totems (which may be disappointing for some players). Other types have been forced into a more specific function such as Axes which now give Increased Damage Over Time.

Should Blizzard remove any more restrictions to Classes with Weapon Types, or will doing so potentially erode away core Class fantasy? Should the floodgates be released, allowing everyone to use everything just like Diablo 2? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
