Blizzard's strategy for speccing your character's abilities in Diablo 4 Gold is a blend of the studio's approach to Diablo 2 and Diablo 3. As executive producer and director of the Diablo franchise Rod Fergusson put it, "Diablo 2 felt like you were locking in; you were able to change your character at least once per difficulty. With D3, you kind of changed your look like you would change your clothes. Everything was gear-based as opposed to skill-based."Fergusson added, "I think the fact that we have skills on the equipment [in Diablo 4] is really nice for experimentation -- as a sorceress I [might] get Blizzard [on a pair of boots] three levels before I should and I can try Blizzard to see if I actually want it."
Director of the game Joe Shely told Polygon in an interview with a roundtable in a roundtable interview that "having your character feel like an amalgamation of choices you've made will lead to interesting decisions, at least interesting opportunities."Shely added"The Diablo Team is well aware of the fact that gamers, particularly beginning, may not have an understanding of the various classes' capabilities. They will be looking to test their skills.
"When you take a look at our respec system," Shely said, "which are applicable to both the skills tree as well as to Paragon to later levels that's our endgame progress system. "We've determined to think about the system in a manner that has the sense that making a choice matters and that your character is not exactly the same as anyone who has a character, but you have a lot of flexibility to try things out.
"You've been given the option to change the spec of a point by point. It's easy to despend a single point and spend it on something else however, as you progress further into levels, the cost increases, making those choices a bit more thoughtful. Of course, you could also respec your whole tree in one sitting if would like to build from the start."
Fergusson pointed out that as players progress and deeper into their character "the game's currency cost to respect grows higher and higher eventually, you'll get to the point where you've got a level 90 Barbarian and instead of altering my character, it's best to simply roll a brand new Barbarian and then start from scratch."
Diablo Immortal will soon receive its second major update on December 14th. The update, named Terror's Tide, brings tons of new content to Diablo Immortal, most notably the very first post-launch zones, called Stormpoint. The Stormpoint zone will introduce completely new main quest, bosses and monsters to buy Diablo IV Gold Immortal. This is content that will keep players at their wits end.
