Diablo 4 Ultimate Abilities - What are they and what do they do?
Diablo 4 Ultimate Abilities are available for all five classes. They have a similar unlock requirement: spend at least 23 points on the skill tree.
Once you're able to do that, you can pick only one from the available options. However, you may still respec that node. This will refund the skill point so you can change to something else. In any case, our Diablo 4 Ultimate Abilities guide discusses what you can expect from each class.
Sorcerer Ultimate Abilities
- Deep Freeze - Offering both defensive and crowd-control capabilities, this encases the Sorcerer in a block of ice, all while damaging and chilling/freezing nearby foes.
- Inferno - For the pyromaniac spellcaster, this conjures a serpent that burns everything around it.
- Unstable Currents - This one is a bit more finicky. Basically, it allows any Shock spell to also activate a random non-defensive and non-ultimate Shock spell.
Rogue Ultimate Abilities
- Shadow Clone - This allows the rogue to have their own shadowy clone that will also mimic their actions, including other skills that are used.
- Death Trap - Think of this as akin to a timed explosive. Place it on the ground and wait for a hostile to trigger it.
- Rain of Arrows - You'll shoot arrows straight to the sky, causing multiple projectiles to rain down. This is cast twice in succession.
Necromancer Ultimate Abilities
- Blood Wave - This is somewhat similar to what you've seen in the Lilith's Lament boss fight. A wave of boiling blood will travel along the ground and knock back opponents.
- Army of the Dead - This might be one of the best Diablo 4 Ultimate Abilities not just for the Necromancer, but for any class. This acts like a nuke of sorts, where multiple spirits are spawned, all finding a target before exploding.
- Bone Storm - The master of the undead will use numerous bones for protection. Yes, the Golem will be shielded, too.
Barbarian Ultimate Abilities
- Call of the Ancients - An old favourite from the previous game, this allows the Barbarian to spawn ancient spirits that do various types of Barbarian skills like Leap and Whirlwind.
- Iron Maelstrom - This one focuses primarily on the Barbarian's arsenal of weapons. Depending on what you have equipped, you'll get a different action. For instance, bludgeoning weapons will be able to stun after slamming down on the ground.
- Wrath of the Berserker - This is primarily for those who love the effects from the Berserking status (i.e., +25% increased damage +15% movement speed). The difference is that there's a longer duration since this is continuously triggered while the skill is active.
Druid Ultimate Abilities
- Petrify - The Druid will turn nearby hostiles into stone, while also being able to deal increased critical damage against them.
- Cataclysm - Mother Nature is angry, as the Druid unleashes a tempest that can deal knock-back effects and trigger lightning strikes.
- Lacerate - The reason the Druid has four Ultimate Abilities is due to Shapeshifting. This particular option is for those who prefer the Werewolf. It allows for quick back-and-forth strikes.
- Grizzly Rage - Meanwhile, the other Shapeshifting Ultimate Ability is for the Werebear. This grants increased damage dealt and reduction.
And there you have it. Yes, Diablo 4 has Ultimate Abilities for each class. And, yes, there are quite a lot of them that can supplement your planned build.
