Ranged weapons

From Diablo Wiki
Ranged weapons are weapons that can be used at a distance, hitting enemies out of hand-to-hand combat range. Some of these types of weapons could be used for melee combat as well, in Diablo II. It's not known if this capability returns in Diablo III, and few details about ranged weapons have yet been released.

Known Ranged Weapon Types
The following weapon types have been confirmed as returning in Diablo III. These weapons were seen in gameplay movies, during play demos at Blizzcon, or were mentioned by Blizzard employees. [1]
- Bows -- Not seen since the 2008 WWI gameplay movie.
- Crossbows -- Not yet confirmed.
- Throwing Weapons -- Not yet confirmed in Diablo III. If they don't make it into the game, their odds or appearing in an expansion seem fairly strong.
