All Diablo 4 skill trees

All the classes in Diablo 4 have unique identities and the skills they have access to as based on them. The abilities not only respect how narratively the classes fit in the world of Diablo 4 but also their role in a group.

Below you find a brief explanation of what each skill tree focus on:

Barbarian: This class’ skill tree comes with abilities that aim on mitigating damage while generating Fury to increase the character’s damage output. A solid selection of single target as well as area-of-effect abilities.Sorcerer: Although the Sorcerer’s skill tree can be summarized as focused on burst enemies, it also offers a good variety of skills that uses elemental magic to crowd control enemies. Druid: The Druid has a versatile skill tree that allows this class to focus on damage, on mitigating damage or a mix of these two. In general, Druid’s skills are based on the class’s ability to shapeshift into animals as well as on using elemental spells. Rogue: The Rogue has a skill tree focused not only on offering tools to burst enemies, either from close or long distance, but to imbue their weapons with special effects to fight multiple enemies. This skill tree is marked by its focus on skills using blades or bows/crossbows. Necromancer: As expected from this class, a big focus on its skill tree is to improve the Necromancer’s army of Skeletons. At the same time, players can find skills that use Blood, Bones, or Darkness to attack enemies or keep the Necromancer alive.
