(note:sorry if its blurred out the other pictures...It's all the artwork we already saw, but this is new!)
so...what ya think bout it?:thumbup:
It looks like a Barbarian in a sandstorm.
With a curved sword! Nice. Lets hope we will get a desert themed character after all.
"Desert Raider". Fits nicely into the diablo theme. Better than "woodsman" and other discussed alias' for the ranged class in D3.

Why in the world would you say it is a ranged class? Look at him, holding a sword. Likely this is the second melee class that is expected to come, perhaps a dervish type out of the Lut Gholein deserts, perhaps also a tie in to the secretive Assassin orders.

ways to tell that this is not a barbarian:
1.)this guy is less muscular than the barbarian and the fact that the barb wheres a very big belt.
2.)it would be wierd and stupid to see a barbarian with bows,arrows and blades that looks like it came from japan.dumdums.hahahaha...
what's up with the tripple post? I'm sure - seen that fact that there aren't any replies - that nobody interesting read this thread in those 11 minutes.
Anyway, you do you think blizzard to be that stupid? They won't leek something where everyone would see it, if they even leek anything. If it's not the barbarian, it's probably just an NPC/merc/concept that has been abandoned. They did start with a mele character that wasn't the barbarian, yet it ended up as the barbarian. Perhaps it started as that.
P.S. dual wield and bows = ranger. So it's possible - although I don't think so.

The shot makes the character look too epic/important to be an NPC or a merc.

Hmmm .. good point .. that's a possibility

If that new character is going to be desert themed, then it better be called "Raider" or something along those lines.

Im sure its been said but FOURTH is spelled wrong
I was hoping for a class like this. Perhaps from the Dry Steppes. That's a pretty huge desert and I've wondered who lived there. I know the druids are from Scosglen, but I mean the lower section.
Blizzard wouldn't be so sloppy as to post artwork of an unannounced class so far in advance. It's probably concept art for an enemy or NPC. Maybe a merc or something.

Looks pretty cool, its quite possible the fourth class as we didnt have a desert themed hero so far and with the desert raider theme there is a lot of cool stuff that they can explore, even some ancient tricks like invoking sand and blinding enemies with it, etc....
Plus as someone said, it looks quite epic to be a simple character.
