The Diablo 4 Armory feature is undoubtedly the best addition yet, offering us the ability to swap builds efficiently. However, as shared on Reddit, there are still several ways the Armory can be refined to better meet player needs. Below, we’ll dive into key areas where players feel improvements are necessary.
What Players Like About the Armory
The consensus is that the Armory is a step in the right direction. Being able to save and swap builds on the fly has been long requested. However, the feedback points to several shortcomings that prevent it from fully streamlining the gameplay experience.
The Issues Players Are Facing
- Gems and Runes Aren’s Saved Correctly
- One of the main frustrations players have is that gems and runes aren’t saved with the build. If you remove gems from gear in one build, they are also removed from the Armory loadout. This creates complications, especially since some high-cost gems need to be reused across multiple builds.
- The Diablo 3 system, which automatically tracked where gems were stored (Inventory, Stash, or other gear) and reapplied them during swaps, would be a much-needed improvement.
- Mercenaries Are Missing
- While this wasn’t a feature in Diablo III, many players have requested the ability to include Mercenaries and Followers in saved builds. This would allow them to have consistent loadouts.
- Seasonal Powers Are Not Saved
- Season 7 Witch Powers and potentially, other seasonal powers, are not automatically loaded when switching between loadouts. This leads to additional manual setup, taking away from the seamless swapping experience.
