Hi,
I encoutered several items like this gloves I found on my Sorc, here picture taken on my Spiritborn.

There is no indication of class restriction when on Sorc, and no explanation when on Spiritborn.



Why is it and what to do about it?

Im also aware of this video wudijo was talking about it like year ago, but it didnt work for me last time I tried it like week ago:

It has intelligence and was dropped by a sorc. You picked it up offf the ground. In the past you could use intelligence based gear on a barb (good for res) and slap a barb aspect on it. Looks like they changed it.

Ps I like your sig

I might be wrong but thats probably because the aspect on it is for another class. Try imprinting a sorc aspect and you should be able to use it

I dont think thats it cause that would mean all SB gear with dex would be unusable on Sorc, which is not the case.

Actually its neutral aspect, found it on Sorc dont have necro :)


It just seems that some items randomly get class restrictions, and on top of that randomly the item sometimes lists that class restriction (such as "spirit born only"), other times it does not and you will only when you log in on other classes see that you cant equip it. We are talking items with no class restrictions, such as regular gloves, that have class restrictions for no apparent reason.

On top of that, sometimes enchanting it with neutral aspects or something removes the class restriction, other times it does not.
(This gave me an idea I will try if there is difference removing class restrictions from items with neutral/class specific aspects).


Anyone knows how to remove this?
Would love to use these gloves and SB, useless on Sorc.

You’re not the only one who’s had this issue I can tell you that. I haven’t personally encountered it. Check the blizz forums or report a bug if you feel like somethings fishy. Let us all know what you find out!

Sometimes items get bound by class on drop and sometimes they don’t. I’m not sure if folks have figured out the how or why though because it is only like 15% of the time.

Roll off the int, SB can use then.

Source: I’ve done it. Apparently most people in d4 don’t do something unless a guide tells them to. Not as shot at OP either, multiple comments, and no clue in any of them.

I rolled damage per dark shroud onto my spiritborne item and it did the same thing. Except the item doesn’t say rogue only, it just wont let you equip them.
