Developer Blizzard Entertainment shared the first details on the Spiritborn, the new Class arriving in Diablo IV with the release of the Vessel of Hatred expansion. The developers describe it as one of the most mobile classes in the game yet. Coming from deep within the tangled vines and swampy mires of the Nahantu Jungle, the Spiritborn can commune with ancient spirits while leveraging incredible speed and agility.
But that is not all! The Spiritborn can also call upon Spirit Guardians to help them out in the midst of battle: the unique strengths of Jaguar, Gorilla, Eagle, and Centipede Spirits will see you overcome any nightmare the Burning Hells throws your way.
“Spiritborn are versatile warriors who fuse devastating three-hit-combo attacks and acrobatic fluidity into a potent display of their ferocity. They are masters of hand-to-hand combat, doling out lethality at close range through the ability to extend their wrath with the aid of spirit energy and their favored demon-slaying implement, the glaive. Their physical prowess allows them to block or dodge incoming strikes, absorbing this power for themselves or redirecting it back at their aggressors.”
