Linken's Sphere, well, quite obvious from Zelda.
Planewalker's Cloak maybe from the Magic Trading Card game, refering to the Planeswalker.
Burize do Kyanon meens Blizzard Cannon in Japanese, too.
Cranium Baher is a warhammer from Diablo.
Eaglehorn a bow from Diablo II.
Lothar's Edge is tribute to Sir Anduin Lothar, the Champion of Azeroth, during the First War (in Warcraft and Warcraft II.)
Messerschmidt's Reaver is an axe from Diablo II, originally from Diablo.
Monkey King Bar - From the Chinese folk tale Journey to the West, the Monkey King Bar was a staff used by the hero Sun Wukong and could alter its size to his will; the same bar was used by Son Goku in the Dragon Ball series (Son Goku being translated King of Monkeys). The weapon also appears in Phantasy Star Online and may also be another reference to that game.
Nathrezim Buckler is a reference to the Nathrezim or Dreadlords who are a race in the Warcraft universe.
Power Treads - The graphic is used to depict "Wirt's Other Leg" belonging to Wirt, a boy who lost his leg, in Diablo.
