I normally never play female characters, but I think my Witch Doctor Alt is going to finally be the exception to that rule. He seriously looks starved/ill, he has tony arms, a pot belly, and he shakes horribly. Yet the female version looks healthy, I could see if male and female both looked like that, but she kinda looks badass, he just looks like the April Fools concept of the Archivist.


Also I will be playing a Barb.

Subed. wizard all the way

I'll start with Wizard myself.

Was unlucky with the beta open weekend because i kept trying to use the Europe connection and it kept saying it couldn't connect until i realized that i could connect to America's :slap: that cost me almost 2 days worth of playing with the beta :banghead:

Managed to play with the Wizard and liked it allot: can't wait to give it a serious go when the game goes live.

In the beta, the wizard's class was way weaker then its potential due to very very basic orbs. Though, i still was managed to get a good 56DPS stats at the end.

Barb first for me, I think. I don't really like kiting mobs, so I'll need to be able to take a hit or two. Though monk looks pretty sweet too. 2.94 attacks/sec at level 13 seems ridiculous.

and pretty sweet area of effect damage helps a lot. My first alt will be a monk probably.

If anyone here is new to the Diablo universe, here is a video clip to help some of you catch up on the story of the first 2 games if your not willing to play through them. Good explanation even for those who HAVE played the game and are hazy on the minor details.



As for me, I played the hell out of the Witch Doctor in the beta, but I think I'm going to try out the Barbarian when it comes out. I heard he is quite fun.

Going to play as a Monk

Can't wait, Max Payne 3 is great, but D3, D3, D3.

It's like back in Diablo and Diablo: Hellfire, I've killed "Dark Lord, Killed:0", which turned out to be Diablo, somewhere along the way whooped Na-Krul, then in Diablo 2 and Diablo 2: LOD, I've performed an act of genocide on Diablo's family ( Mefisto, Diablo, Baal, lots and lots of demons, some chick with boobs, and an oversized Zerg). And now, Diablo 3, well it's like defeating your champion title in the boxing match, it may not have that "whoaaa" effect D2 and D1 had in their days, but i bet it will still be amazing overall.
