The first comes in Relics that add raw ilvl to the weapon and normally a minor passive gain of something, health, extra fire damage, damage dealt by X skill, etc. Past these baseline skills they are also upgradable, not only in terms of ilvl but also in passive and active skills they grant (99% of them are passive, rarely is there an active - none of the DH traits are active other than the first) These passives are called traits and work a lot like old school talent trees (think WotLK and earlier). Both are very good skills and depending on the situation become part of your rotation. Each spec of each class gets a different weapon, for Demon Hunters we get the Twinblades of the Deceiver for Havoc and the Aldrachi Warblades for Vengeance.Įach artifact weapon gets a baseline skill, Soul Carver for Veng and Fury of the Illidari for Havoc.
These weapons start with a base ilvl of 750 and can be upgraded as you level/gear. Basically really badass weapons that you will keep for the whole of Legion.
