If they are going to replace the witch doctor (which personally i hope not (just give him a new facemask for the love of god)) I hope they add being able to blow up your own pets to the necro.

In my opinion, if you slice a demons head off one time, you will know how to do it better the next time. You'll where to stand to avoid bloodspray (or be drenched in it, your choice), what angle for the head tobe cleanly shaven off, what body parts are the most comic to remove first ect.. Woot for killing things and gaining exp.

Diablo 1 wasnt as potion heavy only because they were all instant like rejuvination potions. The health globes in Diablo 3 react like potions where they build your health slowly so the potions will be like the potions in diablo 1 which means you don't need to spam them in an effort to increase healing rate, one potion will heal you 35 percent instantly. Combined with health globes, a cd is acceptable.

I saw that picture myself and it screamed druid with one of those leach vine thingies on her arm. Is it just me or does she look slightly native to anyone else because that would be pretty sweet to make an aboriginal class that can shapeshift. A mage would be kinda cool if they could lke throw walls down on people and create vortexes, maybe even (dare I say it) arcane explosion as an cd aoe.

I remember that people were pretty pissed when they were going to change D1 skills to D2 way and look how that turned out. It made the classes so much more defined. and made the gameplay so much better. I really didn't think they were going to have 3 skills trees anymore because they have the chance to change it for the better. By doing whatever they are doing they are just going to increase the diversity between the classes more. This way not everyone is going to need teleport and be enigma clones!!!

Personally I don't see the use. I , like most diablo players, don't do the wow thing, we make names that arn't actuall names. More like "BigusDickus" "Bowjob" "XxX_Killerz_XxX" Or something lame like that. I guess if you were going to actually name your guy it would be cool but who actually does that . . .

Zoner dude i think I know what you mean and that would be an amazing class. It would be soooo interactive. Like you can change different aspects of your char with monsters you find continuously for each guy you want to fight.

Lets say that you are under attack by a group of fallen, some zombies, a tree dude and a couple of those rhino monsters you can take his form and gain the charge skill and rip through the fallen, grab the form of the tree and crush the rhinos, take the form of a zombie and poison the tree, switch back to the rhino and rape the rest of the zombies . . . . ooooooo me likey. You could make it so fast paced.

Zoner

By doing this by your second suggestion it would also add a value to gold depending on how much it costs to x-fer. Maybe the higher the ilvl the higher the price?

I agree with what has been said a couple times already. Take the pally, say he "transended" beacuse of his holyness into an angellike being with no wings and there we go. Another holy class that isnt lame. Give him his auras, but some cool shit with offensive holy and fire damage but foccused on melee as well, maybe have a heal so we can stop wasting time with the healer idea :P. Maybe a level 30 skill he gains angelic wings that rip around and tear shit up for a specific time like hurricane/armaggedon is.

January 16 2009. Same date TBC came out just to spite us

I havnt read past page 3 so i don't know if this has been answered but I do believe that it is the very same man (The barbarian). In the gameplay video the barbarian recognizrd cain and spoke to him as if they knew eachother I think. Ima go check now again tho.

Yeah it is the exact same barbarian.
Barb: "Cain you still live?"
Cain:"Oh there you are . . . "

This is a shit idea but meh ima post it.

Since we all love the necro so much and can't let go I have a lame idea.

Name: Death Monarch!!

How bout this: the necro that killed diablo and baal slowly loses his sanity after the destruction of the worldstone. Then 20 years later he is severly F#$@ed up in the head but still feels the balance of power start to shift and can't resist what he has been taught about the balance shit and decides to try to slay them again. Since his loss of sanity he no longer has connection to the powers of Rathma and can no longer controll the poison of nature but still has connections with the dead to use bone and revive the dead but he knows taht he is not strong enough so he turns to other sources.

(To make this work lets say belail is not the bad guy in this game) He contacts Belaill and all the other lesser demons and makes a pact with them, granting him power of the demonic hordes of the lesser demons. He does this because of his mutilated logic that the lesser demons will be easier to slay when they are in power than the three brothers if he was alone.

He can use the powers of hell by summuning a demon for his personal body guard, can still work with skeletons and revives but no golems. He would still have power over a small amount of curses that have come from his pact with The lesser demons, the summons are only there for 1/2 of the damage and to absorb damage but because of his insanity he starts to like killing by reaping the life force/soul out of the enemy and using it to refill his hp/mana while the enemy is busy attacking the demon/ undead.

He no longer finds a use for his dagger and uses a claw like the assasins in diablo 2 because it bleeds better. As well as syphoning health while attacking whenever he kills someone a fraction of their total hp or mana replenishes his.

3 Trees: NO MORE POISON!!! That is the witch doctors now ;(.

Bone: Summon a massive army of skeletons/skeletal mages and revives as well as holds bone attacks like spear, teeth, spirit but he no longer hs the ability to wall with bone only has bone prison that slowly tightens doing damage until the target kills the prison and the damage stops.

Demonic Slave: Summon a demon of your choice of 7 or so, they all give off different auras and do different levels of damage and hp levels, some are more like casters(lower resistance aura), some are ultra tanks (defiance aura) some and pure damage (fanatasim aura). These aura affects only affect you and your summons not party members.) They level with you and if you want a new demon you have to send yours back to hell and start with a level 1 demon again and have to level it, forces players to make wise choices and also helps ALOT with replayability of the chacter. The skill points you put on them can increase there level of aura that hey produce, their hp levels, their attack speed, their physical damage, their magical damage. Also at the bottom of the tree there is a Spell Called: Demonic Possesion: Remeber Illidan in WC3 when he metamophasized . . . yeah. When he is transformed he can't use any bone skills because he is under direct controll of belial but he gains a demonic shadow ranged attack as his normal attack. He can still use curses and all of the skills in the Blood tree and those skills get bonuses.

Blood: This is the tree that develpoed because of his insanity and growing love for the blood of demons. Skills that are here are all of his curses, they are alot more limited than in diablo 2 but have the favorites and some new faces. Blood Hunger: it is a constant life leach regardless of weapon, each skills level hightens. Spiritual Hunger: It is a constant mana leach regardless of weapon, each skills level hightens. Blood Rage: When an enemy has lower than 50 percent hp this pasive skill kicks in. Each level increases the attack speed bonus and movement speed that you recieve when his life is low. * Life Boost: When you kill a monster you recieve a percent of his total hp into yours. Spirit Boost: When you Kill a monster you recieve a percent of his hp into your mana.* Only one of these can be used as a time and is set like an aura taht only applies to you and your demon. Sacrifise: He cuts himself and throws the blood on the ground in a streak, says "Bustle in your hedge row" backmasked and the blood bursts into flame creating a gateway to hell for 30 seconds, everything that walks through it is absorbed and takes xx damage per second untill they are released once the spell is complete. This spell takes 60 percent of your total health, killing you if you have lower than 60 percent so you have to use it sparingly.

This Character has very low max hp and armor but it doesnt matter because either way that you like to play, letting your minions kill for you, or ripping limbs off and leaching your life faster than you can lose it, you can keep yourself alive.

He would also be incredibly fun to journey with to hear his growing insanity and bloodlust as he meets all the familiar faces, cain, Peppin??? And hear his idea of whats going on and what has happend in the past.

"This place is thick with the stench of ghouls . . . (Inhale of breath) God I love it (Evil Laugh - maybe like Heath Ledger as the joker :P)"

What you guys think, I realize it needs alot of work.

Some lame names I thought of:

For my Witch Doctor: TokenBlackClass!!! BlackDeath (Get it, it's racist and means the plague hahaha)
For my Zon/Bow dude: Bowjob!!! (Mmmhmm my crown jewel of names)
For My barbarian: SexySeniorCitizen!!! (I really ran out of ideas and he is rather old)

They suck but meh . . .
