Barbarian – Reinhardt

Overwatch 2's Reinhardt fits in the  Diablo 4 Gold same heavy-hitting tank archetype as Diablo 4's Barbarian class. Both of these characters excel in using powerful melee weapons but struggle to deal damage at a distance. Additionally, they both have a Charge ability that helps them close the gap on enemies to make up for this poor range, while also providing support for teammates in the form of a shield in Reinhardt's case and buffs like Rallying Cry and War Cry for the Barbarian.

Rogue – Hanzo/Genji

The Shimada brothers Hanzo and Genji of Overwatch 2 fulfill the classic agile dexterity-focused archetype that Diablo 4's Rogue does. While the Rogue has the ability to use both One-Handed Swords and Daggers, as well as Bows and Crossbows, Overwatch 2 splits this archetype in two with Hanzo being the bow master and Genji a user of the sword. Both characters still have a high degree of maneuverability to offset their frail defenses, much like Diablo 4's Rogue.

Druid – Ramattra

Similarly to the Barbarian, Diablo 4's Druid is a tanky class that shares a lot in common with another one of Overwatch 2's tanks, Ramattra. Although the Druid is a master of nature magic and Ramattra is a mechanical Omnic, they both fulfill the shapeshifter archetype with the Druid having the ability to shift into a Werewolf or Werebear and Ramattra being able to shift into his Nemesis form. Ramattra also has both ranged and melee skills much like the well-rounded skill set of the Druid.

Necromancer – Symmetra

While it might seem like Reaper would fit in with the same skeletal aesthetic as Diablo 4's Necromancer, Overwatch 2's Symmetra is actually a much closer comparison. Both of these characters fit into the traditional summoner archetype, with Symmetra able to create turrets to fight for her and the Necromancer able to resurrect skeletal minions to fight by their side. Symmetra even gains the moniker of The Summoner during Overwatch 2's Halloween event game mode Junkenstein's Revenge: Wrath of the Bride.

Sorcerer – Zenyatta

Diablo 4's Sorcerer is a very heavy magic-focused class, and while Overwatch 2's Zenyatta walks a fine line between magic and science with the abilities granted to him by the Iris, they both fulfill the traditional glass cannon archetype. Although Zenyatta is a healer in Overwatch 2, he has the potential to deal a high degree of damage when his Orbs of Destruction are paired with his Orb of Discord. The Sorcerer in Diablo 4 is in a similar position with powerful skills like Ice Shards and Chain Lightning, but both they and Zenyatta are very frail defensively and benefit from tank support to optimize their offensive potential.

A player in Diablo 4 encountered a glitch that trapped them inside the Blacksmith's building, and this bug has been reported by several other players. Players have found some workarounds to fix this problem, such as speaking to the blacksmith again, teleporting to a waypoint, using the mount, or exiting the game and re-entering. While players are frustrated with the presence of this glitch, they hope Blizzard will address and fix it soon, as the game has been out for a while now.

A Diablo 4 player experienced a peculiar glitch that trapped them inside the Blacksmith's building. They weren't the only one to encounter this bug, but there are several ways to easily fix this particular problem in Diablo 4.

It has been nearly two months since Diablo 4 Gold was released. Though there have been plenty of glitches, bugs, and exploits in the game in that time, Diablo 4 has done a pretty good job of fixing them, ensuring players have a smooth experience in Sanctuary.
