So Blizzard is making all 5 classes in Diablo 3 have different class mechanics and resource systems which I highly commend them for.
The 5th class has not been announced, but being a lover of the Zon of D2 and the hunter of WoW I'm highly optimistic that the 5th class will use bows or something of the sort.
I was talking a lot with my cousin about what we think could be the class mechanics and resource system for the unannounced class (which I understand is completely worthless) but we start conversing about how we loved the old school megaman games and how you could hold down a button to charge up an attack, release the attack and your resource goes back to 0.
So what do you guys think about this mechanic for a ranged physical class?
Example: Multishot -- hold down the mouse button for 2 seconds and it released 10 arrows, or just click to release 3.
Rapidfire like shot - click to shoot 3 arrows, hold down for a couple seconds and releases 10 arrows.
I think it would be an awesome new system and work really well with D3, I want to hear what everyone thinks!
Alright so my cousin, KQkyle got defaulted the blizzcon ticket after the winner said he couldnt go to the conventon. My question is HOW do i get a blizzcon ticket now so we can both drive to Cali together from Dallas?

Isn't the real problem the fact that with 2 one-handers you can get 2 emeralds vs 1 two-hander getting just one? If youre going for trifecta won't you always still want 2 one-handers?
