i understand Elfen Lied, i know some mage classes, warrior kits, ranger and paladin classes etc. from baldurs gate. but the other classes like crausader, fist fighter, dragoon and some others are very well... did you found them self?
not really i was just thinking of some cool chars not present in Diablo or DND, others are ideas already in this thread, i just put them into one easy to read list.

bearing in mind that this is all speculation and there is no real way of know which classes will be used, but here are a few ideas for char that people from this site have come up with
now not all these concept are likely to be used but if most of them were used it would be pretty cool. and yes I along with the other people here who help create this list do realize that some of these characters are very similar to each other, i.e Priest and cleric, and thus having both of them in the game would be utterly pointless.
Previously the following list would be comprised of chars submitted in name only, i.e just their name, i will now attempt to elaborate on as many chars as possible, I will be detailing the skills sets rather than exact skills although i will mention some where appropriate (or where i choose whatever), also bearing in mind that as i do this many classes will appear more similar than before, so once again obviously both classes would not be used in the game.
It should also be noted than some of these classes would make better Mercs than Player characters
you will also note that i have reduced the number of Submitted classes as they were really similar almost to the point were the just seemed like the same char under a different name
- choose male/female => choose class => choose faction heaven or hell, faction determines whether your char is light or dark, eg Paladin or Anti-Paladin (anti is kinda like the reverse, anti does not work for all classes some just have a good or bad version, where the good and bad versions arent complete opposites like the barb) -somewhere between 10 - 20 or so chars, possibly keep some of the original classes and some new ones -Generally chars in Diablo should fall into 3 categories, Warrior, Priest, and Mage, so this is how i will describe them.
Warriors
Anti-Paladin anti-Paladin is not a necromancer, Anti Paladin is exactly how it sounds an inverse Paladin, while the Paladin Heals, gives life, and gives bonus, an Anti Paladin takes lives and his Auras would have more incommon with curses of the Necromancer from D2, he does not however posess other Necromancer skills like revive and golem summoning.
Archer The Archer or as they are more commonly known the Ranger is kinda like a male amazon. He is the epitome of skill with a bow, his skills centre around the Bow, but he also possesses other skills as well, He can track enemies exceptionally well and has an affinity for nature, i.e the abilty to summon animals to his cause similar to the druid from D2
Bard not the hellfire version a good one, the Bard is best described as a cross between a fighter a budget paladin and a budget mage. He is a fairly capable fighter, His Songs (which would be one of his skill sets) either provide bonus to party members like th D2 Paladin or harm enemies like the D2 Necro.He also has a small range of powerful mage type spells.
Bounty Hunter Like the Ranger he is adept at tracking/stalking, but his services come to those in need at a price, while the Ranger does so for virtue and honour the Bounty Hunter is a schemeing mercenary. He possesses several skills similar to the Assassins trap Skill set. but also several warrior type skills as well
Monk not the hellfire version a good one more like the DND version, unarmed, martial artist. The Monk main form of attack is his fists and feet. His powerful attacks are capable of doing several types elemental damages
Ninja kinda like male assassin in several aspects. While this class may seem unlikely, if one thinks about it, it can work. He would be able to throw shuriken which would act like the Necromancer skill Teeth, and a skill similar to the assassins skill, cloak of shadows would do quite well to emulated the Ninja's stealthiness. but the Ninja would also have several skills more designed for combat, they are skilled warriors, so they would also posses several skills than would do haeavy damage, and increase their chances of scoring critical strikes.
Priests
Cavalier (Crusader Inquisitor) A warrior truly dedicated to the erradication of evil. They epitomise honour, courage, loyalty, virtue. They are expertly trained to Hunt down and defeat classically evil beings and monsters i.e your corrupt mages, daemons and the like. Possesing mostly warrior type skills, they do have several spells at their disposal, mainly of the self Buff kind, not so much party oriented
Cleric (Adept, Prior, Zealot) a class i am truly surprise has not made it into Diablo yet. A great fighter, but he is a Priest and as such can cast a variety of spells, Turn Undead similar to the D2 paladins conversion but only works on Undead of high levels low level undead are destoryed, can summon down the wrath of their chosen deity to smite there enemies similar to Fist of the heavens only more accurate and more powerful, posseses many bless type spells that increase armor, damage, stats these work similar to enchant i.e they must be cast on their target. They also have an intense hatred for the undead and thus would have a bouns to damage when engaging them
Mage
Alchemist Possessing the ability to animates inanimate objects. it is an Alchemist who truly makes Golems (not a Necromancer unless it is a Bone Golem), creates weapons out of the elements around him for a better insight to the abilties of an alchemist watch the Anime Full metal Alchemist, you may be surprised as to what they are capable of.
Conjurer specializes in creating creatures and objects to help him. This is the charatcer that it appears many people want, he is a summoner, summoning powerful daemons and magical beasts to aid him
Elementalist specializes in elemental based magics, and this is what his skill sets would be divided into -Fire fairly obivous -Water(ice) again fairly obvious -Earth, conjuring up walls or rock to trap enemies or stop ranged attacks, opening holes in the ground to swallow his eneimes, for a better look into the powers of earth magic check out Avatar the last Air Bender, and the Anime Full metal Alchemist.
Warlock not like the wow one A supernatural character whose sinister powers are inborn abilities, not spells, Such as shapeshifting into Daemons or Lycanthropes (Lycans is short for Lycanthropes).
The next few classes are better suited to being just the one mage/sorcerer class that can perform the skills of all of them Abjurer specializes in protection magic (kinda like auras and the armor spells)
Diviner specializes in detection and divining magic (find/disable trap, far sight and identify)
Enchanter specializes in manipulating the minds of sentient beings
Illusionist specializes in creating illusions to confuse and mislead
Invoker specializes in invocation/evocation magic (lightning/magic type spells)
definitely no Subclasses or Multiclasses in d3 just True classes unless by subclassing it is you choose either; -Warrior then you choose a warrior class -Priest then you choose a priest class -Mage then you choose a mage class
While many of these classes are taken from Dungeons and Dragons, that doesnt stop them from being awesome classes, esp some of the priest classes, for a game about heaven/hell, there seems to be a lacking of religious characters, i.e priests and more specifically clerics. Also the mage classes seem a little lacking. only two Necromancer and sorcerer/ess hence the reason i thought of some more, some may obviously appear better than others but if used effectively they can be just as good.

It seems like everyones Ideas are turning Diablo 3 into an elder scrolls game.
not in the storyline but the mechanics of the game.Dnt get me wrong
elder scrolls is an awsome series but its no diablo the game mechanics
need to mimic previous games with a truly unique twist
Use of alchemy gets me most excited but more like fullmetal alchemy<not boring
than elder scrolls alchemy<boring

In actually a lot of my suggestions have more in common with DND or more specifically Baldur's Gate than Elder scolls. I never really played Elder scrolls so any similarities are purely coincidental, this goes for game mechanics, classes, world, almost all aspects of the game. see the master list http://www.diablo3.com/forums/showthread.php?t=114&page=75 (fourht post down)

elder scrolls is everything that a rpg should be so lots of similarities between the two should arise. So I retract most of my statement to you but for everyone else it still applies. People need to come up ideas that would help the game that havent been used before, think long and hard before posting (I dont have to say that to elfen because hes got 3600 posts and Im sure he knows wat to do by now)
Ok I made a thread on this earlier, but then I found this one.
Somebody with the abilities of a psychic/magneto (such as force push) but maybe more expanded to include the power to manipulate gravity in general. Possibly a gravity well that draws in creatures and slowly damages them. Increase gravity which slows characters down. Levitate objects and throw them, this includes creatures, boss characters immune of course. This skill could be useful in removing barricades or making bridges.
More skills of course, but those are some basic ones.
:rolleyes: i think u should put the druid with better spells like u can sumone a gigant spider, a minotaur the guy half horse and half human and that u can put more skills in 1 thing cause wen i haved the bear i can only put 1 skill per lvl and didint like that cause i haved 20 skills reserved i mean dont u imagine a huge:rolleyes: bear that is the doble of the druid wen u put 1 more skill he gets more bigger and i would like to that the druid cold make like an earthquake that will be awesome:D.
a minotaur will be kool like a character it would be like a barbarian but not so similar i mean it could be the fastest character 1 of the abilitys would be that 1 i dontnow but it will be verry verry verry:D kool that character. well that wat i think u can put on and make servers bigger so atleast can be 20 people in each server so more fun the killing
It would be cool to have that system for the druid, but they would have to be summonable, not tameable, as most of the creatures in d2 are demonized in some way.
Maybe like you train the "Summon Bear" skill and like you said, start off with a cub, but once your skill is at level 5, it upgrades to a young adult, and then adult, elder, enchanted, smokey, etc.
try this on for size mix char 2 gether 2 make better 1 and the best part is at the end of the game u get 2 creat a new char out of all of the different chars and make the one u like the most
I think we should have skill lvls more spread out and go onto higher lvls - as soon as u reach lvl 30 there is no more... have lvl 1 skills lvl 8 lvl 16 ect up to something higher eg 56... i got bored after lvl 30... and keep ideas realistic not like a 3 year old making up a fire-water blast kind of thing

They are expertly trained to Hunt down and defeat classically evil beings and monsters i.e your corrupt mages, daemons and the like. Possesing mostly warrior type skills, they do have several spells at their disposal, mainly of the self Buff kind, not so much party oriented
Cleric (Adept, Prior, Zealot)
a class i am truly surprise has not made it into Diablo yet. A great fighter, but he is a Priest and as such can cast a variety of spells, Turn Undead similar to the D2 paladins conversion but only works on Undead of high levels low level undead are destoryed, can summon down the wrath of their chosen deity to smite there enemies similar to Fist of the heavens only more accurate and more powerful, posseses many bless type spells that increase armor, damage, stats these work similar to enchant i.e they must be cast on their target. They also have an intense hatred for the undead and thus would have a bouns to damage when engaging them
Mage
Alchemist
Possessing the ability to animates inanimate objects. it is an Alchemist who truly makes Golems (not a Necromancer unless it is a Bone Golem), creates weapons out of the elements around him for a better insight to the abilties of an alchemist watch the Anime Full metal Alchemist, you may be surprised as to what they are capable of.
Conjurer
specializes in creating creatures and objects to help him. This is the charatcer that it appears many people want, he is a summoner, summoning powerful daemons and magical beasts to aid him
Elementalist
specializes in elemental based magics, and this is what his skill sets would be divided into
-Fire fairly obivous
-Water(ice) again fairly obvious
-Earth, conjuring up walls or rock to trap enemies or stop ranged attacks, opening holes in the ground to swallow his eneimes, for a better look into the powers of earth magic check out Avatar the last Air Bender, and the Anime Full metal Alchemist.
Warlock
not like the wow one A supernatural character whose sinister powers are inborn abilities, not spells, Such as shapeshifting into Daemons or Lycanthropes (Lycans is short for Lycanthropes).
The next few classes are better suited to being just the one mage/sorcerer class that can perform the skills of all of them
Abjurer
specializes in protection magic (kinda like auras and the armor spells)
Diviner
specializes in detection and divining magic (find/disable trap, far sight and identify)
Enchanter
specializes in manipulating the minds of sentient beings
Illusionist
specializes in creating illusions to confuse and mislead
Invoker
specializes in invocation/evocation magic (lightning/magic type spells)
definitely no Subclasses or Multiclasses in d3 just True classes
unless by subclassing it is you choose either;
-Warrior
then you choose a warrior class
-Priest
then you choose a priest class
-Mage
then you choose a mage class
While many of these classes are taken from Dungeons and Dragons, that doesnt stop them from being awesome classes, esp some of the priest classes, for a game about heaven/hell, there seems to be a lacking of religious characters, i.e priests and more specifically clerics. Also the mage classes seem a little lacking. only two Necromancer and sorcerer/ess hence the reason i thought of some more, some may obviously appear better than others but if used effectively they can be just as good.
