In Diablo II, the barbarian had skills like Bash and Stun, which could be used across all weapons. In Diablo III, we have skills like Cleave. I think it would be interesting to have some skills as weapon specific, but give them specific attributes that another weapon skill wouldn't have.
To clarify: have some skills in each (possibly just 1 or 2) of the skill trees that are specific for a weapon. For example: ax skills, sword skills, hammer skills, pole-arm skills, etc. You could customize your barbarian to specialize in any of these skills, reaping the specific benefits of each "weapon tree."
Another example: Ax skills will do slightly more damage than sword skills. Sword skills will have a higher inherent % chance to critical. Hammer skills have an inherent chance of causing stun, etc.
There can be naming issues, one of which is current: The skill Cleave, for example. I cannot see a barbarian using cleave using a hammer. The definition of cleave is "to penetrate something by or as if by cutting." To me, Cleave is an ax skill. I could maybe see a person cleaving with a sword, but using Cleave with a hammer? That's just weird. In fact, a cleaver is a class of ax.
Just an idea. I think it will greatly contribute to character customization. Rather than having a bunch of Whirlwind Barbarians using miscellaneous weapons, one can have a Cleave barbarian (ax skill) and a Backbreaker barbarian (hammer skill). Or perhaps a hybrid... and those are just two weapon types.
D2里，Bar有猛击、击晕这样的技能，装备所有武器时都能使用。D3里，Bar有了劈砍这个技能。我想有几个与众不同的特定武器技能会挺有意思的。
说明一下：在每个（可能仅仅一两个）技能树中设特定武器技能，比如，斧系技能、剑系技能、锤系技能、长柄武器技能等等。你可以为角色选择某个特定武器技能树，从而获得特定的好处。
再举个例子，斧系技能的伤害会比剑系稍微多些，而剑系本身有暴击百分比加成，锤系有一定几率导致击晕效果，等等。
当然还有命名问题，目前就有一个作为例子——Cleave 【横劈】。不可能让Bar拿着把锤子去横劈吧，cleave的意思就是“劈砍”。所以在我看来，横劈就是个斧系技能。当然，也许能见到有人用剑来劈砍，但用锤子劈砍就不合常理了。实际上，切肉刀也是斧子的一种。
这仅仅是个想法。我想这对角色的定制化会有很大好处。与其让Bar们拿着五花八门的武器玩旋风斩，不如练成“横劈型”（斧系）Bar、“背击型”（锤系）Bar或者混合型双持Bar。
