Affix Updates in Season 4
Removed Conditional Requirements and Reduced Total Affixes
Affixes will now be narrowed down in Season 4 of Diablo 4. Affixes will now focus on base increases to stats with higher value but the number of affixes on items has been reduced.
Starting in Season 4, affixes with conditional requirements will no longer appear on item drops.
Greater Affixes

Items now have a chance to drop with Greater Affixes, these values are raised by 1.5 and can only appear from Ancestral Legendary and Unique items.
They will drop with a unique audio cue and will have a unique icon in your inventory and the overworld. Greater Affixes cannot be obtained from Enchanting items and can only be obtained from drops.

What are Affixes?
Stats from your items that give additional effects

Affixes are additional stats or effects from the items you acquire throughout the game. These stats range from (but are not limited to) increased damage, higher critical strike chance, and additional ranks to certain Skills.
What are Inherent Affixes?
Stats that are present in all items of a certain type

Inherent affixes are certain affixes that will be in every item of a certain type. Taking the image above as an example, all Daggers will have the + X% Damage to Close Enemies affix since that's the Inherent affix for that item while the bottom four affixes can be different for each Dagger as those are affixes that will depend on the item you roll.
Can You Change Affixes?
Certain affixes can be changed by visiting the Occultist

Upon acquiring your first Legendary Aspect or reaching Level 25, you unlock the Occultist. Among the features of this NPC vendor is the ability to replace a certain affix. To do this, simply head over to the Enchanting tab and select which affix you wish to replace.
Do note that once you've replaced one Affix via Enchanting, you will not be able to replace any of the other Affixes attached to the item. After initially changing the affix of an item, further affix rerolls will still be possible however the Gold and Material cost to reroll further increases enormously.
All Occultist Features
How Many Affixes Can an Item Have?

Rare | ・1 Inherent Affix ・3-4 Regular Affixes |
Legendary | ・1 Inherent Affix ・4 Regular Affixes ・1 Legendary Aspect |
Unique | ・1 Inherent Affix ・4 Regular Affixes ・1 Unique Effect |
Legendary Aspects and Unique Affixes can be distinguished by the Star (★) symbol beside the affix.
The rarity of an item also ties directly to the number of affixes it can have. Items of a Rare rarity can have 3-4 affixes depending on how far along you've progressed, while a Unique item will have 4 regular and 1 Unique affix.
