some classes didn´t even use TWO skils in DII.. *cough* nooberdin *cough*

Left click attack right click berserk with 4+% mana steal is enough for anything at any difficulty.

I have no intention of buying this game. I will be playing it though.

I see what you did there...

[Ramien]

I will be playing it, since I'm getting it as part of the WoW subscription I got for my gf.

I don't know if I'll be playing much multiplayer though, at least not right away - too many people rushing from point A to point B, clicking through quest dialog, and skipping out on some of the side quests, at least in my experience with the beta. I like to explore.

I know exactly what you mean. I'll be playing single player for the entirety of Normal to experience the story in all its glory...

And THEN I'll go to multiplayer for Nightmare onwards with my friends.

*Looks at empty friendslist*

Erm, I mean, with the friends I'll find.

Oh god.

My battletag is, unsurprisingly, Hayashi. I think Hayashi #6945. That said, I'm staying clear off HC until I first clear Inferno on non-HC.

Sorry, I'm a coward.

Before Blizzard scrapped the Ranger class back in '09 for the *Shudder* Demon Hunter (I'm still convinced thats just a cruel joke), I was ganna actually play the game with that class.

Alternatively, a Barb with dual fist weapons b/c why not. But I much rather use that $60 for a nice dual Joystick combo for MW:O and a new paint job or something.

I was under the impression only monks could dual wield, and barbs use either sickle-shield, or 2-handed weapons. Can someone confirm this?

no, youre not. one does not simply play Hardcore mode. first: SP, second: inferno SC. after finding perfect class and skills: HC ladder.

no, Barbs and Demon Hunters can dual wield, too.

Hayashi! You must continue my legacy and make a dual fist-weap Barb! Be the first and make it great!

The Demon Hunter is even more awesome than the Rogue was in D2. jump into the mob, set a trap, jump out and Rapid Fire them down.
- kinda like "arrows! arrows everywhere!!"

so we´ll have a well- balanced team, for i like the DH best and a buddy of mine will def play barb. ( maybe he´ll continue your legacy, highlander! )

[Hayashi]

Need a monk for any team to pull our [REDACTED] out of the [REDACTED].

[Ramien]

I liked the wizard during the beta, but I'll be trying all of them out. My battletag is Ramien#1710, so hopefully I'll see some people on there once I'm in multiplayer

[mwhighlander]

How can you possible say a gun wielder (First of all, that's blasphemy. "But they're crossbows!" Yeah - ok. They're basically pistols....) is better than this? This concept for a Ranger is (was*) the right direction for Diablo back in '09. I have no idea what happened but it seemed like everything that could go wrong went wrong.

The thought process on scrapping this concept and going with something "more dark/part demon" is a joke. I'm sorry, but no thanks.


Edit: Please, for the love of all that is Sacred, don't get me started on the monk...

....the barb wizard and witchdoctor are ok for the most part.

Not just pistols. When using rapid fire skills, the demon hunter becomes a freaking machine gun.

Barb can't go wrong... after all it's the same barb that's been there since Diablo I.

[mwhighlander]

The barb wasn't in Diablo 1 It was the Warrior you were thinking of.

And Fun Fact: Originally the Barb was supposed to be the same character from Diablo 2 aged 20 years, being one of the only few survivors (besides the other hero's who were supposed make cameo appearances as NPC's) who can remember what happened but because Blizzard is dumb and didn't want to make two separate story lines for the Male and Female version, it is now just a completely different one. Lame...

[LordDeathStrike]

its obvious what blizzard intends for diable 3, theres no multiple viable builds, they have real money auction with blizzard getting a fee no matter what, honestly i just cant force myself to play it after they butchered what was good in diable 1 and 2 and came out with this obvious cash grab attempt at dia"blow" with real money auction.

[pursang]

I wish they hadn't "consolified" it so much, but it may be good for a quick bout when the price drops.

Words could not express the disappointment I felt when I could Rapid Fire my way through the entire beta. :/

So here's a picture of my reaction:
