A few months ago, while I was playing Diablo 4's closed beta, my sword-loving nerd of a boyfriend pointed at my weapon labelled "claymore" and proclaimed to me: "That's not a claymore." With my interest in and knowledge of medieval weaponry being zero, it's a statement that left my brain as fast as it entered it. Well, today is his day for vindication, because one eagle-eyed Diablo sword enthusiast has noticed that almost all of Diablo 4's two-handed swords are labelled incorrectly.
Reddit user Funslinger posted all of Diablo 4's non-legendary two-handed swords next to each other, with their in-game category and what they should properly be labelled as. Turns out the claymore is actually a bastard sword, while the actual claymore has been listed as a "two-handed sword". The flamberge has been mislabelled as a kingslayer, with that sword being categorised as a gothic blade instead.
