I personally think the wizard shouldn't even have the ice/lightning skills.... i think they shoulda made the class entirely non elemental. ( and maybe brought the sorceress back in the xpac as an elementalist)
lol Sorc should have totally been elementalist...
I totally agree with this
however, how hard would it be to make a pure-arcane based
I can maybe think that time shifting is nice
Arcane Bolts are nice
Telekenisis is nice y'know stuff like that
I REALLY WISH I SAW SOMETHING NEW LIKE:
Air?
Earth?
etc. I always thought air was kinda cool to be a power
Air?
Earth?
etc. I always thought air was kinda cool to be a power
Maybe cuz those are left for the fifth class
I really hope so!
I don't wanna make this about the fifth class but I really wish to see a class that has those powers.. like a druid-like class that dbe way to sweet

Ya'mon, I totally agree. But shapeshifting kind of comes with powers of nature like wind and earth. I doubt theyd put all those together cuz well.. that dbe the druid lol but yeah I admit if i had the choice between shapeshifting or wind/earth skills, Id go for the shapeshifting man, Its just so cool

What I want to know is what is WD top tier skills? He has that slow Fire lob which I found to be not worth the time in the demo and the leeches which were weak and he summons stuff which is ok I guess, what else does he have? Curses which are again ok...but what does he have that is like epic like WW caliber.
The lore of the Wizard class is that she is supposed to be above elemental magic. Granted, she has "storm" which is lightning and cold but the other skills are arcane and conjuring. Fire is given to the because fire itself is very primal. I think it matches him well. They also had to give it to someone, it's too classic to leave out.
If you want to see what skills the wd has, check out the wiki. I personally updated all of his skills based on the blizzcon 09 demo. He has some pretty cool fire abilities. My favorite is a ring of fetish that breath fire.

Don't forgot the little Fetish witch doctors spitting fire at you in Kurast too!!!
Yeah, I assume that is where the inspiration comes from. Most people probably won't remember this but thy had originally planned on the to have a fetish travel around with him on his back. They decided against it because they said it looked to awkward. Too bad, that would have been awesome.

Yeah that'd sound kinda like the ogre alchemist in warcraft 3...
Imagine if they had pursued the fetish on the back... think about all the inuendos and puns that would have ensued.

Seems like blizz tried real hard to link this to the WD's style, having made it a skull bomb that explodes into a spirit-like rage thing that just so happens to do fire damage.
I think they may have added it to give the WD a more diverse range of elemental damage types (and not follow something stupud like magic damage... really, its just white damage, they could have been a little more creative?! but whatever) yay troll
well.. Cmon lol Warlock makes total sense. Isnt like a warlock a hell-ish type of mage ?
Summoning demons.. Demons living in hell.. wich has alot of fire.
I do admit the witchdoctor shouldnt have alot of fire skills, like he shouldnt be a master at it. Just the firebomb i find makes sense the rest to me doesnt really.
Yeah you're right, But still a witch is kindof a (Dark)Sorcerer, and fire fits well with Darkness.. (ironic since fire makes light XD).. So yeah for the witchdoctor, I admit he fits well with fire

First I think the single fire spell Wiz has is Hydra ! (I thought about that, hydra is pretty similar to hydro, water signification!??!?!).
Me too I find it very weird for WD to have fire spell, like d2 fire spell of the druid ??? hey it's the sorc duty. But now wiz haven't so much fire spell, I think this kind of damage can be handle with another class -> WD.
Anyway firebomb seem to me a bad/boring spell that any player won't use after a month of play, everyone will know that's a uneffective spell for high level.

death spells (something like neverwinter's finger of death, or disciples hecatomb and wind of death) would best fit warlocks (who you say are agents of darkness), sorcerers should still be masters of the elementals
@luc1027
wiz also has meteor rain, i think it should do some kind of fire damage too

Nah thats a witch... i'm talking wizard/sorceress like the one in Jason and the Argonauts, or Merlin, etc

dude please do me a favor, and do that with barbs
well i think the wizard's fire looking spell aka disintegrate deals arcane damage, so it could not be compared to fire based witch doctor spells

ah... warlocks are just male witches
