Changes

One major change announced early in Diablo III's development was the elimination of player-assigned stat points. In Diablo III, each class gains various [[attribute]] pointsin [[attack]], [[strengthprecision]], [[dexterityvitality]], [[vitalitydefense]], and [[willpower]], when they level up, and these are automatically-assigned. The Diablo III developers felt the stat allocation in Diablo II was a poor way to provide character customization, since players almost always followed an established [[build]], which was always the best choice for a character. This removed any variety or individuality.
