→Class Specific Weapons
The main objection to this issue is that it limits play variety. Not many players used axes or polearms with their Assassins or Sorceresses, but what about the players who wanted to do so?
Blizzard has stressed that the selections are made carefully and distinctly, and that the lists are not yet finalized.[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/bashiok-on-class-specific-items-part-two/]
::The list of what weapon types are or aren’t allowed for each class aren’t final and could change. They’re fairly logical choices and what is most commonly seen as closely tied to the hero archetypes. In our current game the wizard can’t wield a two-handed sword for instance, but can still use a one handed sword and shield if so desired.
From that it seems likely that they weren't creating two-handed swing animations for the character. If that's the case then there's no point in letting the [[Wizard]] use two-handed swords if she can't use axes or polearms.
