New Diablo 3 Character Class: The Monk!
I'm still getting set up in the press room here guys, but thought you'd want to know! You heard it here on Diablofans first!
Update: The Monk is playable at BlizzCon!!!! It wasn't at first, but after the announcement, they made the character playable on all the computers in the convention center.
Update #2: The Cinematic Trailer and the Gameplay Trailer for The Monk are up on Youtube. Scroll down and you can check 'em out!
The screenshot came from a Korean-language version of the Diablo 3 site.
Here's the actual Cinematic Trailer for the Monk:
And here's the Gameplay Footage of the Monk:
More news to come soon!
The monk fits as well as anybody else.
I'm excited.
Can't wait to buy the game.
yea thats what i ment with the witch doctor people said he looked silly an all that but i accually liked him still do ...monk doesnt really fit but im sure they could play it off on some religion haha its blizzard trust an believe have they ever let us down?
I dunno. What do you call a female barbian? Barbarianess? Wizardress? Witch Doctress?
I think punching/kicking could be awesome if done right... His hands could turn into tigers/dragons/demons heads as he punched and crap... If they did it right it could be pretty awesome.
Didn't the d2 barbarian have a passive skill tree?
Resistances and masteries and the like?
Well, since d3's skills are set up differently you're probably right, but I was thinking that they would an integral part since real shaolin monks do extensive training to harden their body/control chi/etc.
.martial arts with hand to hand
.martial art with staff
.spiritual things against evil and healing skills
Yeah, in D2 there were some passive based skill trees...
But this isn't D2, it's D3... All of the characters have had skills + passives in every tree thus far.
This class doesn't excite me too much right now. Hopefully gameplay videos will make me like it more.
Truthfully I haven't really looked at the skill trees so I don't know how they're set up for d3... :confused:
Well now you know!
His title is "Undefined"
And his description also only says "undefined"
And then I go onto this thread and I find more haterz :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykxqzKH5BIc
Guys, seriously. Blizzard is doing the best job of any game company taking into consideration what you have to say. But they will be deterred from listening if all you have to do is whine and complain. Grow up! You don't get everything in life.
Monk not creative enough? Lame? Your entire life is lame. You sit on a computer checking the forum every day for more information on the game that you will buy multiple copies of and play non stop. However, you completely troll, complain, and even THREATEN to not buy the game! Hah. You need to work on your bluffing skills...
All of us will buy the game. It's the best out there. One class won't make that big of a deal. I HIGHLY doubt you will hate all of the classes. And you know what? In the expansion you get TWO more classes.
Grow up, Quit your whining, and enjoy the information like everyone else, instead of your constant, pointless, criticism.
This is the screen I got before they took it down

I'd say it's pretty official, but I'm not 100% sure. I just hope we find out when the Diablo panel starts... :confused:
EDIT// and it's not cropped out so you can see the official d3 site
