Well i was judging from the armor preview from the official diablo page (http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/class/demon-hunter/). And the male DH is looking pretty badass there tbh^^.

Gonna choose DH but i worry the class will lack in power in the endgame, simply because you seem very limited in your ability to spam AoE abilities, which everyone knows is the essence of Diablo. Cant be autoattacking on max level, goddamn!

Eh I wouldn't count out the AoE options that easily. For example with yellow gems you can have grenades generating 7 hatred and multishot taking 7 hatred for 140% lightning damage which is a sustainable combo you can use as fast as the animations will allow.
There's also a lot you can do with the rocket spec to get a lot of aoe damage or making use of attack speed increases. Sure your attack may not be aoe, but if you're attacking at 500% attack speed for almost no hatred it's not all that different.
I think it's just the case where runes are key for DH's AoE damage rather than the base abilities.

Male Monk ofc. Martial arts ftw!
If the game gets released within the next 2 years, afterwards I will have been a full member of the working class I guess..

Hopefully it will be out within the next 2-3 months xD
I plan on making a Monk my 2nd character, I think they will be the most OP class initially but I just love the DH too much to choose anything else as my first character.

barb all the frisking way

Female Wizard all the way.

After playing all of the characters in beta, I'm going to definitely roll first a male barb. No question this class owns in the beta and for me has brought the most joy. Just being able to leap over objects, up paths, across gaps, down paths etc is so much fun.
I was really surprised at how fun DH and Monk's were. I went into beta thinking those two were garbage cans and I'd never like them.
Part of me wants to roll monk first since they seem more rare as it is. however, in every game i play the hybridish support role and a lot of times i regret it because it's not as cool, or helpful as the game tries to trick you into believing. So i think I may stick to my guns this time and go barb.
Either way from what I can tell so far in beta (not much) gearing alts is a breeze.. so nobody should be too sad if the first class the roll isn't so good, you can gear up and get ready quickly on a new character.

Cool, thx for a nice reply. I havent played the beta per usual with Blizz games -.- so only watched videos and most people run out of hatred very fast and are stuck autoattacking.

I actually didn't have that problem at all when I was playing through the beta.
I used hungering arrow as my 'standard attack' (it has 35% chance to pierce and hit 2nd target) and backed it up with elemental arrow that was an AoE for wiping everything.
It's possible you saw videos from before where all attacks CONSUMED hatred. In the last (or 2nd to last) beta patch 1/2 of the DH's skills GENERATE hatred now making her flow much better.

After having played through Beta using all 5 classes, I found Wizards to be the most fun. Witch Doctor seems a little weak compared to the other classes. Just didn't deal enough damage. :/
|
I'll be wizard or demon hunter. Barb is great but I don't think it can tear through the game as fast (tho maybe that changes after u get whirlwind). I think wizard will be fastest at getting through the game, but demon hunter might be more fun
|
Demon Hunter or Monk.
Monk because of my fascination with Martial Arts. Demon Hunter because DH was my favourite in WC3. I know they have nothing in common except the name. Still enough for me though :D
