How to Equip Skills

Assign Skills from Skill Assignment Flyout

Diablo 4 - Skill Assignment Flyout

Players can freely equip and assign Skills by opening the Skill Assignment Flyout, then dragging the Skill icons to their preferred slots. With this setting, players can better modify and personalize their HUD and Skill loadouts compared to older games in the franchise.

How to Assign Skills

How to Respec Skills

Respec at the Skill Tree Screen

Refund Point Sample - Diablo 4

You can manually Respec each point of your character's Skills at the Skill Tree screen by hovering over a Skill and pressing the Refund Rank button. You can also respec all skills at once by clicking the Refund All button at the bottom of the tab, which will take you to the Respec Mode where you can freely adjust skills before finalizing them.

Respec Costs Gold

However, note that using the Respec feature costs Gold and becomes increasingly more expensive as you level up. We recommend experimenting with different Skill builds in the early game to take advantage of the cheaper Gold cost at lower levels.
