Quick idea about +class skills items

Hi all.

This is going to sound silly but if Blizzard wants to easily open up the game to more builds and make items in general more valuable, they should change one single thing in my opinion;

items with +x to a certain class skill should instead give +x to any class skills. (not +x to all skills, because all skills grant levels to oskills).

my reasoning is, says Guardian Angel is a very nice armor if you aim at tanking elemental damages, but being +1 to paladin skills only makes it worth less for non paladins. Say i am a barbarian and i like the idea of higher resistance caps, i have no options other than this one, and to take it with no skill bonuses.

Which makes it kinda not appealing at all compare to almost anything else with at least 1 skill.

Many scepters have this issue too. It's a weapon anyone can use, but the unique ones grant paladin skills. It's a little silly.

Treachery is +2 to assassin skills. Why not any class? It would make it a much better pick.

There's a lot of items already that are class specifics like Leaf Runeword or Ormus' Robe are sorc oriented, or pally shield or pelts. Those can remain for their respective classes.

But items available to all, why are they available to all at all if they have specific classes in mind? Look at Heart of the Oak, say it had been only druid skills, nobody would are for it at all.

I would even allow certain items to grant skills as oskills like Heart Carvers could allow for any class to hork (lol) or Ormus' Robe with Warmth or Enchant as oskill could be godly on elemental druid.

I think removing this barrier would open up for a lot of itemization and make a lot of garbage uniques actually considerable for alternative builds for different playstyles.

Could it make some new OP builds? yes. But diablo 2 is already a completely solved game, by the moment you're level 70 with average equipment the game poses no challenges at all already.

I think only the Hellfire Torch should remain with class skills because it's the core of the roll but many uniques should just allow for any class to get the skill point else it's just silly.
