Wow... nice! Here I'm thinking I can have a nice mature debate about a specific topic, and your insight is really a testament to my overexpectation of maturity and intelligence found here.
Obvious troll is obvious.
I'm sorry, but with the release of the Monk, it's a little bit too early for analytical discussions.
And it's at least a year before the fifth character is going to be release, so you can probably bring this up again in a couple of months and the excitement will probably have worn off by then for such a discussion.
Okay, I've read a lot of threads saying that the last class will be some sort of Rogue // Amazon type thing.
The whole point of this thread is to discuss how it won't be (or for you to prove me wrong). I will be using logic and citations to prove my case. Please be mature and discuss rationally.
We've seen several archetypes thus far in what Blizzard has released:
~Barbarian - Sword and Shield type pure Melee warrior
~Witch Doctor - Enemy Manipulation, Damage over Time, and minion creator
~Wizard - Pure caster
~Monk - Speed Powerhouse
And Damage Archetypes being;
~Pure Strong Melee (Barbarian)
~Disease and Fire (Witch Doctor)
~Lightning, Arcane, Cold (Wizard)
~Holy and Fast, Weaker Melee (Monk)
Being that each class is capable of decimating its opponent at all ranges, we can safely assume that the last class will be able to do that very same thing. Based on this strand of logic, the last class cannot be a pure ranged class.
Now, someone had pointed out to me earlier that a short bow was shown as a dropped item in the Barbarian gameplay trailer at around 3:55. That is an excellent counterpoint, but the only issue is that the game has evolved quite a bit since then. To illustrate my point, I challenge you to find a Staff, some type of Claw-type weapon, or a wizard's orb in any of the previous videos, before the class was announced. I watched each video closely and didn't find it at all. Why? The game has changed tremendously.
So, now that I've finally laid my claim, I challenge you all to an honest debate as to why I'm wrong.
I'm betting the last class is going to be a balanced class, capable of doing a little bit of everything.
I"ve concluded that the fifth class, but not final because the expansion will add more characters, is going to be the bard.

It's possible that it might have been an NPC in D2.

We don't care about your logic.
We only care about the fifth class.
