Here’s a post I made back in February 2022 on the D3 forums.
In Diablo 4 footage we only have 4 hotkeys and 2 assigned to lmb and rmb. I’ve been playing Lost Ark and have no issue using 8 abilities + items etc. I’m probably going to write a bigger post about Lost Ark and setting new standards in ARPGs but...

Here’s other posts from way back when on the D3 forums.
We need more than 6 skills. The 6 skills is huge, to me this means the game will automatically be too simple. I want the option of using 4 skills or the option of using 11 skills, I want the choice to make whatever I want like I can in D2 or PoE. ...

6 Skills and probably party of only 4? PC gamers suffer from consoles. 🙁 I don’t know the party size, but since we only got 6 skills, Diablo 4 looks optimized for consoles and not for PC. Would not surprise me if we get a party size of only 4...

Ok, so I think Diablo may be headed for disaster again. I have the same feeling in my gut that the system is horrible that I had when you all announced in D3 that max lvl would be 60 and not hard to get to. It just felt wrong in a fundamental,...

Dear Blizzard, You finally hit the right point with D4, reintroducing some mechanics like Items who give us many free points on our skills like in D2 but you are limitating us with just 6 skills. Please meditate, at least, to add a skill slot...

I am sure someone has raised this before, but if not, here we go. We should be able to bind more than 6 abilities on to our hot bars, especially when we are given so many choices. For example, I was trying out a support barb, and I had a choice...

Hi Everyone, hopefully a developer can spare 30 sec to take a look at those suggestions and problems I see in the game at the moment. The biggest problems I see are: that Dungeons are pretty much the same and involved a lot walking that is...

For classes like barbarian it completely ruins the class. Damage abilities are far too important for this class. It has terrible survivability and even worse it’s mobility is atrocious. You can get leap for example but why would I do that? Skill slots are so important for barbarians that there is nowhere to put it on my skill bar without ruining my build. I can’t imagine how much worse this will be once we get further down the skill tree.
They need to implement path of exile style or grim dawn …
The 6 skill slots is not enough for how elaborate the skill trees are, and how many skills you can actually have. With the necromancer it feels like you only have 4 skills, since taking skeleton or golem off the bar de summons them. If we are really only allowed 6 abilities, the elaborate skill tree suddenly becomes very boring and limited. Many of the items that give + to entire skill sections become bad. Hope blizzard actually reads this post.
6 skill slots feels extremely restrictive IMO and just adding 1-2 more would make a world of difference and allow better customization of your character. With only 6 slots it feels like everything is already decided for you.
After giving D4 a shot, I feel like I am still playing D3, with upscaled graphics.
I do enjoy the general direction of the game. But I feel like in 2023, we still playing 4 skills on the bar + mouse clicks? Is that the best we can do? Our monkey brains cant handle more or whats the issue?
Are Lost Arc players just that far more intelligent with higher IQ that they can have sooo many more skills to play with at the same time?
I do wonder why we are expanding from the cookie cutters of ARGPs wi…
I have a lot of issues with the game, enough of it that I requested a refund. But as far some older or nostalgic gamers saying that the game limits itself to 6 skills or the game is too console centric is just plain wrong.
I am pretty sure that Activision has done enough research on ARPGs to understand that most players, even the most hardcore, only utilizes 3-4 skills in their toon’s arsenal. In fact a lot of old school D2 players uses 2 or 3.
Not all of the button configuration or layout is…

Please bring back the Left Trigger Modifier to allow for the use of more than 6 skills, it will allow for greater class depth and more enjoyment.
Also thank you for all the work youve done so far @D4Team been enjoying the beta very much.
Sincerely,

Bunch of youtubers have said they want more than 6 skill slots also.
Here are the timestamps.
Kripparian and Quin69.
Podcast with 4 youtubers Zizaran, Sequisha, Nugi, Datmodz.
Sequisha and Zizaran both say more skill slots would be better for D4 and you can see Nugi nod his head and say “yeah” very clearly he agrees. Datmodz even nods his head slightly at the end.
Livestream from Rhykker talking about an ultimate button.
So that’s SIXTEEN different posts I could find with a very quick search of this topic across the D3 D4 US and EU forums. And 7 youtubers so far that have said the same thing. The console post has 85 different likes on it! You understand now?
