Guys, get over it. They are aware their fanbase is unhappy with the choice, and if they thought the DII system was better, they would have reverted to it already. They know Diablo III much better than we do.
And lets be serious, we all put our stats in the same places anyway in Diablo II.
Yeah, there really is a grossly disproportionate amount of Warcraft artwork on their. I think I counted once all the Diablo fan art on their and it was like twelve pictures or something out of hundreds. Come on all you Diablo fans. Showcase your talent and give the community some kick ass artwork.
I thought blowdarts were primarily used in South American culture, where as the Witch Doctor seems to be more African?
A poison dart skill would be cool though.
Stereotypes often blur reality...
And persoanlly I don't like the idea too much, I mean there have certainly been worst ideas presented, but I believe the WD should be much more focused on spells than attacks. This reminds me of the Pus Spitter crossbow for the Necro. Cool for about 5 minutes then you just use a wand again...
Ok, so I'm really going out on a limb with this.
In WoW you can become an engineer. You can build lots of cool gadgets and devices, most of which aren't even era-appropriate.
What I'm suggesting is a more realistic inventor class for D3, who's skills involve building and using things like explosives (kill mass), catapults (ranged attacks), magnets (push or pull enemies), mirrors (reflect attacks, or create decoys) or just simple walls (protection). They could have skills to smith their own armor and weapons using mana (or some substitute), giving them temporary bonuses.
Anyway, its a very rough idea, and I'm expecting a load of negative feedback. But at least its outside the box instead of all these "ranged and holy" class predictions.
You knew this was a bad idea when you posted it, and I agree with you. Engineers have little use in Diablo III, and if the necromancer didn't make it so an that an engineer could, I would be pretty po'd.
I think it is a good idea and would be a welcome ediiton to D3, but the whole mule idea isn't neccessary, just have a "common stash" for each account, accessible from all chars. This would be much better.
P.S. thanks for the picture of the mule, I had a hard time imagining what it would look like...
In almost every blizzard game with a paladin in it is always vastly superior than every other class available. Examples: warcraft 3, wow, diablo 2. Cant use Starcraft because its not set in there time.
Diablo 2: being able to run through all of hell with just an enigma, hoz and hoto and still kill everything without dying. Get the same results with not wearing any runewords, only takes a little longer.
WOW: Now can kill anyone and everything with little effort. Was able to kill a lot of people in ogrimmar without even losing little health before i got dropped (npc's and players alike all ranged from 60-70, didnt attack anything lower than that).
Warcraft 3: When i reach twenty with a paladin, i can kill every other hero without losing him due to that invinciblity aura. Even without i can still take every other hero and still not lose.
It could be due to them having a paladin fetish or something but i see some deep seeded love for paladins. Any of you else noticed this?
It's already been stated there won't be anymore old classes. I see your point though, I was not a huge fan of the paladin myself. I never played him much, but he always seemed OP'd especially with Nigma.
(A bot with a nigma'd hammerdin could easily beat Baal.)
Barbarian is the most OP? Maybe, but after the 1.10 patch (enigma introduced) paladins were by far the most Overpowered. No debate. For proof just look at how many more HR's a pally torch is worth than a barb torch.

Once DIII comes out we can start comparing ratios

They look like low-armor militia to me, not full fighters.
