Weapon sets are two sets of different main hand and off hand slots that can be swapped between during gameplay.

Mechanics

Characters can equip two sets of weapons or off hands. Each of your skills can be assigned one or both specific weapon sets as long as they are compatible with the equipped items; if a skill is assigned to the opposite weapon set only, the weapon set is swapped automatically when using that skill, with a brief unmodifiable cooldown.

It is also possible to switch between them manually through a keybind for weapon swapping or in the inventory panel. The default weapon swap keybind is X.

Weapon set passive skill points

Players can assign passive skills for a specific weapon set by using Weapon Set Passive Skill Points to flexibly allocate different passive skills for different skills. Weapon set passives require an equivalent number of unallocated regular passive skill points to allocate. They do not inherently grant extra passive skill points. Instead, they convert a number of your passive skill points into weapon set passive skill points.

These can be obtained from certain bosses or quests in the acts which reward a Book of Specialisation, or certain bonus objectives. A total of 24 points can be earned across both difficulties:

Additionally, the Sacrificial Heart provides a similar bonus once sacrificed.

These points can be distributed as follows:

  • Set 1: Up to a maximum of 24 points.
  • Set 2: Up to a maximum of 24 points.
  • Shapeshift: Up to a maximum of 24 points can be assigned to a third set if the player has a Shapeshift skill.

The same number of weapon set passive skill points must be unspecced in order to reallocate them as a regular passive skill point.
