A Friendly (Honest!) Discussion about Characters in D3

I hope sorceresses aren't as over powered in the new game.

I don't think anything will be overpowered compared to the witch doctor. That shit already needs to be nerfed.

Agreed: Barbarians ...nothing really new. Witchdoctors ...locusts that eat people to the bones, walls of zombies that tear creatures to shreds, and summoned zombies that go "boom."

I'd be a liar if I said I'm not gonna play one, though. There's so much potential for massive killing. I want it now!

The idea of creating a zombie wall makes me giggle.

The Witch Doctor is the first i've ever seen of its class, and it does look overpowered. But, who doesn't like playing an overpowered class?

the people who dont like playing the OP class ends up bitching about the OP class when the entire time they are thinking of ways to nerf it they could be rolling one of their owna nd laughing @ the next generation of 'im not gonna play overpowered idiots'

As for characters which was the original purpose of this thread. What do you guys think about a healer in diablo 3? You did have the medic in d2 but the only medics you ever ran into where people who were EXTREMELY over played, have a girlfriend - or want to act cool with prayer aura trying to sell it off in duel games.

You have the Barbarian, WitchDoctor and assumped 3 more classes to come, for the grand total of 5

Perhaps there will be tanking in this installment. Where a healer is ideal.

A Caster should never be able to take as many hits as a Melee beast. (point in case, world of warcraft -- fkn overpowered mages)

You're using too much WoW vocabulary.. I don't like it. >.<

They've stated that, while classes will be able to work together and play to each others strengths, there won't be any clearly defined roles. I wouldn't expect a "tank" class or a "healing" class. I wouldn't even expect a class that can heal.
