Changes

This list is incomplete and subject to change as the game's development continues and more information is released. It was compiled from various developer comments and from what fans have observed in the playable demos, in addition to playtime in the [[Diablo III Beta Test]]. See the [[weapons]] page for a full list of weapon types in Diablo III. This list assumes the obvious that each class cannot wield another class's specific weapon types.

* Barbs can't use [[daggers]], [[wands]], [[caster staves]], [[combat staves]], or ranged weapons: [[bows]] and [[crossbows]].** Barb class-specific: Unknown[[Mighty Weapons]]. Perhaps some of the largest types of axes or polearms, or other melee weapons?** Barbs can [[dual-wield]] all available one-handed weapons, barring a few class-specifics.* Demon Hunters can't use: Unknown. Likely no 2h weapons of any type (including [[Polearms]], or wands or daggers. Heavy 2H weapons, perhaps?

* Monks can't use two-handed [[maces]], 2H [[axes]], 2H [[swords]], wands, or ranged weapons: bows and crossbows. (The class was limited to far fewer weapons earlier in development. See below.)** Monk class-specific: [[Fist]]s, possibly and also [[combat stavesDaibos]].** Monks can dual wield all available one-handed weapons, barring a few class-specifics.* Wizards can’t use 2H swords[[Polearms]], or 2H axesmaces.** Wiz class-specific: [[Orbs]]. Only Wizards and WDs can use wands and daggers.* Witch Doctors can't use 1H axes[[Polearms]], wands, or combat staves2H maces.** WD class-specific: The Witch Doctor appears to be holding some sort of [[totemCeremonial Knives]]-like object in his off-hand in the , [[Acid CloudMojos]] [[runestone]] skill video from May 2011.<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/new-runestones-details-and-videos/ Runestone demonstration video] - IncGamers, May 2011</ref>
