DIII New Class: Monk

[Gjohnst4]

Check out DIII.net for all the new screen shots!

This is really cool to me, because I just finished the Back to Hellfire Mod for Diablo II which is a combination of Diablo: Back to Hellfire and Diablo II. And it has the Monk as a playable character from the original expansion. Anyone looking to get back into Diablo, but wants a fresh experience, check the mod out:

Otherwise, screenshots of the new Diablo III monk are coming in every hour.

The monk has been on a korean D3 site for a while now.

They just confirmed at Blizzcon a few hours ago, its weird that blizz would make a mistake and let this slip early.

Wow, a monk, i always wanted a sort of monk in diablo with, bare hand kick ass skills. A+

 

[Mike0409]

Wasn't the monk available in the Diablo Expansion?

 

[DanishDevil]

It was. They are bringing it back for Diablo III.

 

[Mike0409]

Well so far it seem's they have 2 types of casters and 2 sort of melee class's. How many class's are there total in D3? 5?

 

[DanishDevil]

They've only released information on some. There's no word on a final class count. They're releasing more information as we go so we don't forget completely about the game during the next 6 years of its development.

Monk = Assassin ?

Gjohnst4! I though you were livehard, because of your avatar lol.

but yeah, I plan on getting back into Diablo once 3 comes out.

Same location, same post count, same thanks count, same avatar, same computer specs, different name?


And 30 seconds later OP title is changed. Ok, nevermind.

 

[YinYang.ERROR]

Same location, same post count, same thanks count, same avatar, same computer specs, different name?

naw, just the same avatar.

 

[El Fiendo]

Look again. =p

Anyways, should be interesting. Kind of getting fed up with Blizzard's development cycle in Starcraft and their development cycle in general. I know they are perfectionists, but they announce games 3-4 years ahead of time. Its all for the hype. This game won't be released before 2012. If they wanted to be funny, release it December 21 2012.


Ok, I swear I'm not crazy. I swear OP's name was livehard when I wrote this. I must be hallucinating.

I saw all online coverage From blizzcon live Was awsome and backstage interwievs were funny and informational It looks like D3 Will not air next year.

 

[HeWasRight]

Personaly got dissapointed little bit, exactly by monk's fighting style. It was real mess. Expecialy with additional 3 coop buddies, all screen was filled by bubbles, slashes , explosions and other stuff , its like watching flickering japan cartoon about ninjas with super-powers

 

[Castiel]

I just saw a article over on Kotaku and it was about the Runes for the classes, and the way it looks we might not get the game untill the end of 2011 .

 

[johnnyfiive]

2011? Sadness is overcoming me....

 

[Castiel]

2011? Sadness is overcoming me....

Me to. I really want it this year!

 

[DonInKansas]

Monk = Assassin ?

Pretty much, right down to the "fist" weapons.

 

[Mike0409]

I wish this was being released this year or next..Would make a nice change in the same games being released. And other games that were great then patchs made them an Epic Failure...(AKA:Sacred 2..) Hopefully a D2 patch will keep us all addicted and prompted until D3 is launched.

 

[DanishDevil]

I want another D2 expansion

I'm playing my 10th character or so now. I got on my lvl 67 Meteorb Sorceress last night and showed her off to my girlfriend. Good times.
