Diablo Immortal: Everything about the 6 classes and their abilities

Diablo Immortal is slated for release in 2022 for Android and iOS. So that you can prepare yourself perfectly for the release, we will introduce you to the 6 classes in the game in detail. We reveal what playstyle the classes follow and what skills they have.

What classes are in Diablo Immortal?

• barbarian
• Demon Hunter
• Crusader
• monk
• Necromancer
• wizard

Each class can be played as a male or female character.

Can I change my class in game? Yes. Unlike previous installments of Diablo, you can switch classes during a playthrough. You’ll keep your Paragon level and item progression, while revamping the set to suit your class.

How does the skill work? At launch, you’ll have access to a primary attack that spams without a cooldown, and three other abilities that you’ll quickly unlock. Later you will learn more skills and even a new primary attack. You charge the ultimate version of the attacks over time and they can then be activated.

Will more classes come? No other classes have been officially announced, but it’s not uncommon for Diablo to add a new class after release. Dataminers have already found a kind of vampire knight.

Everything to the barbarian

What primary attacks does the barbarian have? With the first attack – Lacerate – you strike X times directly and deal damage with each hit. Every third attack heals you. In the Ultimate version of the attack, each hit heals you for 20% of the damage dealt for 12 seconds. In addition, every third attack knocks over the enemy.

The second primary attack is called Frenzy and only unlocks at level 34. You attack with a frenzied attack and deal damage. Each hit increases attack speed by 8% for 3 seconds and stacks up to 5 times. In the Ultimate version of the attack, you attack for 12 seconds while being immune to CC. In addition, your attack speed is increased again.

What skills does the barbarian have at launch? At levels 1 to 3 you will learn the following three skills:

• Hammer of the Ancients: An attack that smashes the enemies directly in front of you
• Chained Spear: Damages enemies and pulls them towards you
• Whirlwind: You spin in circles, hitting all nearby enemies

Who is the class for? Barbarians are muscle-bound warriors who stand in the middle of a fray with their axe. In doing so, they sometimes play a kind of tanking role, as they can pull enemies together in the front line and keep them away from the mages and ranged, just via Chained Spear’s pull-in.

So if you like being in the middle of the action and don’t have a problem getting your nose in at the front, then the Barbar is the right place for you.

Everything about Demon Hunter

What are the demon hunter’s primary attacks? Right at level 1 you have the crossbow shot. With this you shoot an arrow and cause damage. In the ultimate version of the ability, you shoot volleys of arrows for 12 seconds while also having increased movement speed.

• Knockback Shot: A bolt of lightning that wounds enemies and knocks them back

Who is the class for? According to Lore, demon hunters are bitter avengers armed with a crossbow. They have developed their skill through hard training and made it their goal to defeat enemies from a distance.

Crusaders are classic melee DDs, but they are well armored.

All to the monk

What primary attacks does the monk have? At level 1 you have access to the Thunderfists attack. This will teleport you to a nearby enemy and attack them with a series of punches. In Ultimate Form, you also generate a Thunderstorm for 12 seconds when you defeat an enemy. This thunderstorm deals damage and knocks targets away.

The Monk is for you if you want to play a melee fighter that deals a lot of damage but can also absorb little damage.

Everything about the Necromancer

What are the Necromancer’s primary attacks? You have direct access to the bone spear at level 1. You throw a missile that damages the first target and deals 50% of the original damage to up to 2 enemies behind it.

At level 34 you unlock the Soulfire ability. It throws a ball of magic that will explode if an enemy touches it. She damages that enemy and also deals 25% of the original damage to all nearby enemies.
