 At least with Lord of Destruction, the Druid was a pretty new character (and even the Assassin wasn't *really* identical to the D1 Rogue). It would be nice if they came out with a brand new character class for D3's expansion (or, preferably, two new classes). | ||

I'm not feeling the witch doctor or the monk in the diablo-world, so the more classic they go, I'm happy. I can't see them having both the necro and witch doctor in the same game, although I also prefer the D2 necro to the D3 witch doctor. | ||

as far as gameplay, other than the hammers, its a pretty different class than d2 paladin. i too would have preferred the necro. | ||

I would have preferred a necro to the witch doctor. I like the rest of the classes though. The crusader interests me. Heavily armored and defensive classes normally aren't ranged classes. The crusader was supposedly designed to be a melee/ranged hybrid. Blizzard also didn't give them the innate 30% reduction to damage taken that the barb and monk gets. Their reasoning is that the crusader was designed around wearing a shield at all times. That implies that the barb and monk are now currently balanced around not wearing a shield. | ||

That implies that the barb and monk are now currently balanced around not wearing a shield. the crusader gets around that by having a passive that lets them wear a shield and a two hander. they will be the tankiest class while going damage, barb will be the tankiest class when going for pure defense | ||

The passive that allows crusaders to carry a 2h and a shield does carry a movement penalty. We can compute how much paragon strength points they have to give up to make up for it. | ||

We can compute how much paragon strength points they have to give up to make up for it. Loss of movement speed is kinda annoying but nothing that I would worry about. Mobs are faster then you anyway normally so its going to make minimal difference in combat while adding a lot of dps compared to 1h/shield. | ||

Some spenders are stupidly weak...like 200% weapn damage as a spender. Most runes are really boring and add either like 40% weapon damage proc or some heal. The awesome skills have loooooong cooldowns for no reason. Why do 1000% weapon damage skills that cost resources need 30 seconds cooldown. Doesnt look good. | ||
