Barbarian Weapon Switching Guide for Diablo 4
The Barbarian class can switch weapons via skill assignment.
By default, the weapon type used by the Barbarian class for each skill is automatically selected. You can, however, select the weapon type to use for each skill manually.
The Barbarian class, in particular, has a unique weapon proficiency mechanic so instead of automatically selecting a weapon, you can manually select a weapon type with the skills and synergy you prefer.
1 | Click on the ability item from the character screen. |
---|---|
2 | Click “Skill Assignment” on the bottom (L3 on the Playstation controller). |
3 | Select the skill you want (selected weapon). |
4 | Keyboard and Mouse: Wheel Click / Playstation Controller: □ Button. |
Weapon is automatically swapped for the skill used.
Automatic weapon switching during battle will be enabled for different skills used.
The weapon type is specified by the skill where it is designed to automatically switch to the specified weapon type when the skill is activated.
Can be changed from the character screen.
After obtaining a new weapon or piece of armor, open the character screen (Options button for Playstation controller, C for keyboard).
Move the cursor over the weapon or armor in your inventory to equip it.
Some equipment have character level requirements that will prevent you from using certain gear when you first obtain them.
