Title says it all, If blizzard were to bring back ONE character from the previous diablos, who would you like to see? And to make it more interesting, what kind of resource would he/she use?
D1:
Warrior
Rogue
Sorcerer
D2:
Paladin
Sorceress
Necromancer
Amazon
LOD:
Druid
Assassin
Now obviously some of the new characters are hybrids (witch doctor=Necromancer/Druid, and demon hunter is a amazon/assassin) but skills aside, who would you love to see make a return? for me I'd love to see the return of the Warrior, sure the barb has taken his place and i'm happy to see the barb in d3, but i'd love to see the warrior in D3, maybe make him a hybrid of barb/paladin
I didn't really like the D3 lineup compared to D2 but looking back now they seem to have cover all the bases in terms of past classes. So i've come to like the characters, even the witch doctor, but i still would prefer a necro over hime, and a paladin over a monk, i do like the monk though
I would like to see some kind of cleric/knight/templar style character, that is why i voted paladin...I just want to see your clear cut soldier armor clad, with his large shield and face hidden behind a ornate helm. Someone who demands respect from his peers through combat and can lead his troops into battle, good at buffing up his team and keeping them alive, while also being able to destroy any foe within reach of his sword (lance, flail, whatever weapon you so choose. I liked the aura's the Pally had in D2 so something kind of like that would be cool, and maybe healing skills but the monk kinda plays with that so perhaps just damage dealing and crowd control skills... I don't know, maybe once I get to play the game and play all the chars I'll find something that is missing, but for now I will not know ahah
The diablo 1 classes are too vanilla. Good for their time.
I vote for the necromancer hands down. He was forever balanced and always fun. My all time favorite is the barb so i guess im in luck
Agreed, thats why I want a warrior but with some new features, throw in some paladin type skills, and some barb, get one wicked warrior. it'd be great if they got the voice actor back for the warrior too
I want a more disciplined soldier type, a natural leader of the group. i loved the over look of the warrior
Just a thought, since besides barb n wizard D3 seems to be trying to come up with their own twist on classes, and because I'm seeing people want Either Druid or pally/knight maybe mix both, have a shifter who has medium knight armor with a sword And shield, and have some of his attacks shift him for the duration, like for a cleave melee attack he temporarily goes wearbear and so on
As much as I like the Necromancer's theme, unless his gameplay drastically changes (to something with formation management for Skeletons for instance - similar to the ones you fight with Shields at front and Archers in the back) I don't see him returning as a fun class.
Which is why I voted for Paladin and Druid. Shapeshifters are fun, and I'm sure they can add a few more shapes to make the Druid a jack of all trades. The Wizard's Archon has modified abilities, maybe each shape could have it's own "effects" on each skill too. The Paladin was just one of my favorite D2 classes, and his aura system is easy to fix and make interesting to today's standards (check Sona, a hero from League of Legends - her skills are a mix of active and permanent effects).
