Diablo 4 Skills / Talents

So you can internet. You just can’t comprehend.

“Will be able to max out ALL SKILLS if you invest the time in your character”.

Tell me, why would they give you the points to invest in every skill if you weren’t able to use the skill…?

God… if you really watch through that interview.

What David Kim was trying to say in that part of the interview is:

  1. you need to be careful when growing your character because you can’t reset skill points
  2. you don’t need to be afraid of making one wrong decision and totally ruin your character because you can max out all Skills eventually. It only took your longer to finish your build.

That’s the reason of max out all skills. So you can switch your build to whatever you want in the end game.

That has nothing to do with what kind of build you can make.

Indeed, you can use every skills eventually. But you may not be able to equip some skills at the same time (for example, you may not be able to equip both “teleport” and “blizzard” for SOR because they are both under “defense tree”). That’s what we are trying to elaborate here.

Yea, you’re just not getting it bud. Not at all. So here you go:

“like Diablo III , you have the option of using multiple skills from the same type, rather than being restricted to one of each.”

What this means is that there are 6 Skill Slots available and if you’re playing let’s say a Barb, you can use (4) Skills from the Basic tree and (2) Skills from other trees if that’s what you want to do.

You can check out this image:

In the smaller image at the bottom, you can see the “Defensive” skills are bound to the “1” key, but you’ll be able to key bind however you wish.

“like Diablo III , you have the option of using multiple skills from the same type, rather than being restricted to one of each.”

This info is not directly coming from any interviews. I believe that’s a overinterpretation of Quin69’s interview. In which, Dev says:

“Elective Mode” from D3 is on by default, aka you can bind any skill to any hotkey

And from the image you mentioned. Tell me, if I want to bind 1 to “teleport” and 2 to “blizzard” for Sor, how the UI will show? I mean, for the current, what I can see is 1 is bind to whichever you choose in the defensive tree. I know you can bind other keys to defensive tree and that’s not what I’m asking.

You up past your bedtime, kid? Cuz there’s summin wrong with you.

Tell me, how is this any different? I’m sure sure AF you can put different skills from the same tree on your bar.

Here’s another image for you if it’s still not quite sinking in:

D3’s class name can be dynamically changed according to what you put in that slot. In the above image, you can see there are multiple DEFENSIVE appears.

That’s not like how D4 currently shows.

In D4’s current UI, there is a clear binding between skill tree VS keys instead of individual skill VS keys. It’s more like you can’t pick two runes for one skill in D3 no matter how you bind the key to a D3 skill.

It’s exactly how it looks in D4. Let me show you where your problem is. You’re comparing apples and oranges. Let’s compare apples to apples, shall we?

Here, you’ll find that each class has 6 trees. Each tree has different abilities. You can choose multiple abilities from the same tree if you wish. I can’t tell whether you’re trolling or just dense AF, but either way I have better things to do with my time.

If you really don’t understand I guess you’ll find out when it’s released. Maybe you’ll grow up some by then.

Same words for you… I really don’t know you are trolling or just dense AF.

Since you are not providing real information, I won’t waste my time with you.

1 skill per tree. You can’t choose Blizzard AND Teleport with the current system:

These are just interpretations from different people… Not directly from Blizzard.

Personally, I just feel confused by current UI design. And I don’t believe you can only pick 1 skill per tree in the final game, that’s absurd. My interpretation is that, this is just a “Demo feature”.

Then you’re arguing for the sake of arguing and believe what you want to believe. You should consult your doctor, seriously. You need help.

What I’m arguing is that, you can’t 100% sure about “you can equip whatever you want” just base on the information coming directly from blizzard. Instead, it’s more like you can only equip one skill per tree.

In our former discussion, you seems to be pretty sure about “Blizzard already said you can do so”. For that, I don’t agree.

However, personally, regardless all the evidence, I tends to believe you can freestyle with whatever you want with all skills in the final game. Although all current evidence tends to tell another story.

BTW, English is not my first language. I may not elaborate myself clear enough…

That post is 5 days old, you think I just found it? It’s clear you’d rather argue than do your own research even if someone tells you exactly what you want to hear. Like I said, you need help. Or maybe, you’re beyond it.

Well, I think we are finally on the same page now.

There are posts about “you can equip whatever you want” and posts about “you can only pick 1 skill per tree”. And the only thing Blizzard told us directly was there is a “Elective Mode” which kinds of contradicting with what their UI is currently.

I think this is a legit question for Blizzard to answer, so both me and “FroZen” post this question on a Blizzard forum and hope for an answer directly from Blizzard.

This has nothing to do with my personal preference. Although, I hope Blizzard can confirm “you can equip whatever you want”.

I can’t see there is a problem in my mind.

What I don’t agree with you previously is that you said “they already told you, and you are too lazy to research”.

I read your conversation back and forth with Helelemama and i must say… BagboyBrown my how your tone changed really… You replied back to me stating you could indeed use different skills in the same tree, but in your reply to me you never said “only 1 could be used at a time”

Ahem lets scroll further down where you change your defense.

So why didn’t you just say that in the first place instead ? Why because you didn’t do the research?

On a side note… Posting a Blog article from blizzcon is another persons opinion about the exact same thing i posted originally in this thread. Which his was on the 2nd of November mine a couple days later due to me not being able to attend Blizzcon so i had to watch vods later.

.

omg i actually didnt think about that
pls this may not happen
an other dia3 mistake

Giving him a chance. It’s clear you didn’t read everything I said. You guys related?

I think you need to go back and re read what i actually said. You actually stated

I mean whats there to comprehend? I think you are missing the question… So let me once again say it more clearly this time…

Can you use multiple skills from the same skill tree?

Fast forward…

So I believe you are the one who is on the defensive cause you know you didn’t fully understand the question the first time and have a hard time admitting that you didn’t comprehend the question being asked.

REGARDLESS
If all skills are able to be earned or maxed out in the end game. The choices we make early on to determine our path of skills. Which is not relevant to the question I even asked the first time.

So Bagboy which is it? Multiple skills or only 1? Since you mentioned both in this thread…

I’ll wait till you decide to make up your mind.

LUL you think anyone on this forum actually knows exactly. I doubt blizzard has even made up their minds about what they’re gonna do yet.

David Kim says skill respecs are free. Joe Shely says it’s the talent respecs that are free.

David Kim never says skill can respec. At least, in his interview with Rhykker, he said skill can not while talent can.

Do people even internet? Or just bs around?
