View Full Version : Worst possible 5th class
I borrowed this thread idea from another forum. What do you think the worst possible class that could be announced for D3? Note: This can be something that they have already said will not be released, this is just for fun.
My vote: A healing class. I know Blizzard has said they won't have a healing class and I applaud them for that. The fact that every class is a dps class is my favorite part of Diablo. Nothing sucks more than not being able to play because you can't find a healer or being forced to play a healer just so that your guild or friends can play together.

"The Commoner"
He can't really fight, nor can he take much damage - but he can chat up a real good conversation and he provides party bonuses to 'Finding a good place to eat' and 'Don't buy stuff from that guy' - both invaluable traits when in town.
His one defensive measure is that he looks like an NPC commoner, so when the hordes of Hell invade the towns, they might skip right past him.
The "Rich Spoiled Noob". He is level 99 with godly items but he can't do anything as he is brainless.
LOL, anyway I want the Archivist XD
Uh..ok.. the worst class.. umm.. a gnome archer?

Introducing the Fallen Fallen Fallen.
You were once a Fallen, running around in your pack of Fallen, felling heroes from all across the land. Then you got bored, and ran away. Once a follower, now struggling through the fallout of your actions as the former Fallen, the Fallen Fallen. Following the Fall of 2009 you fell down a flight of stairs and fractured both your legs, feeding the infamous flag that has befallen you... the first Fallen Fallen Fallen.
+1 for Paladin also, no more auras.
Uhaha, fun one Niyougegema XD

Yes.
But my vote is a tie...it's either bard or the hanglider man (holy ranged class). He swoops down on his hanglider to deliver divine justice.
Swoop
Rank 1: Swoop down with your hanglider and smack an opponent upside the head. 0-.5 damage.
797 Mana Cost
Betrayed fallen:
An abused, underpaid, and neglected soldier of Diablo's army. Sick of living this life style so he decides to become a good guy and maybe have a better life.
SKills:
Retreat- runs away from danger, lower your HP the faster you run
Rakanishu- yells out Rakanishu, actually summons him this time
um... yeah i can't think of anymore

on topic: I vote goes for a full board-and-sword (MMORPG)tank class. It's boring to play, take the position of the needed ranged and is a partial reproducing of what we already have (role wise, the barbarian should be able to spec for a decent tank).
That is, disregarding then impossible classes as paladin, necromancer, barbarian, wizard etc.

bashiok
skills:
"Vague Comment"
When interacting with NPCs, other players, and monsters, "Vague Comment" allows bashiok to say something without actually saying anything.
"Blue Post"
Functions as a trap and a lure. Allows bashiok to disguise a "Vague Comment" as interesting information. Devastating when used in conjunction with "Snarky Response."
"Snarky Response"
Passive, Adds poison damage to "Vague Comment."
Just kidding of course. All in the name of a good, friendly chuckle.
what would suck would be to take a normal class and put a stupid twist on it. Like.. i don't know.. say you take the monk from hellfire and put him in some shaolin cloes, give him some assasin skills and make him a kung fu-ish type char instead of an armor+sword+shield coll looking *** kicking medieval type.
oh.. wait! they did that!

Best class choice so far :funnyabove: I loled hard
The worst thing would be someone who's not entirely human. That's one of the traditions in the Diablo franchise that I would hate Blizzard for breaking. I don't care if he's arabic, black, white, chinese... as long as the class is human, I'm okay. People who bring in "half-demon" "angel hybrid" and all that crap are just crazy anime fans who can't get over their fantasy of angels/demons orgy.
Niyougegema
01-09-2009, 11:45
Massive agreement with the non-human thing. It would be really bad if they threw in some half-demon, gun shooting, steampunk, Van Helsing kinda thingy.
Jello would be a not good class either, just putting that out there. Basically any inanimate object would suck. Especially a vacuum.

Not to burst your bubble - but in Diablo lore humans ARE the result of an angel / demon orgy.

You are beyond redemption, you are to be slain...the worst possible class?
another *** caster class

Yeah, I actually realized that later xD but you still know what I mean. In Sanctuary; long generations of angels / demons orgies is what basically created the "nephalem", and as they kept breeding, their huge power was consumed by the worldstone and later on turned them to be, what we refer to as "humans".
What I don't wanna see is a "nephalem" class, that has no concept other than being extremely powerful and demon/angel-like. I heard from people who actually wanna be able to play an archangel... that's plain stupid.

5. That dude who can solve the Rubik's Cube in 10 seconds.
4. The ghost of Christmas Past.
3. A small albino child who plays the cello very poorly.
2. The entire cast of West Wing.
1. Emoticon, I can already see Blizzard encorperating the ones from this forum into their game.
You can taunt :tongue:
You can drink potions :coffee:
Punch attack :alright:
And a not very good version of Blessed Hammer :hammerhead:

lol romak you got owned for failing at lore reading kekeke
also im not an anime fan and i would love to see something not human i really dont care if they arent demon or angel i just think a new gameplay type is always fun
the necro at first was hated because we were supposed to be hero and not evil but it brought so much to D2 that people addapted him really well and even though he is just a different magic caste that is really badly viewed by other and most turn evil i think he is one of the class that made D2 unique and actually added alots to everygame and that for once blizz created something of their own and that is the swarm gameplay which was only seen maybe in Majesty
and if you look at it monk are basicly to satisfy people that wanted a asian origine related class with kung fu and all that so yeah
anyway what i dont want to see is probly another class that already existed im pretty dissapointed so far i know blizz dont often create something and mostly pick stuff that have been created already but necro was really awesome(yeah thats the only exception :P) and i would love to see a new gameplay style but i doubt it will happen with now just the archer missing errrr

You can go back to your basement and re-watch your favorite inuyasha episodes instead of attacking people. That would actually be a better use of your time. I also don't see how it affects gameplay... it's just a concept thing that has nothing to do with the way you play the game.

The Theorycrafter
Skills:
"Argumentum Verbosium" You unlease a wall of text at your foes, inundating them with so much missinformation they become disorinted and confused. Enemies wonder aimlessly, occasionally attacking the nearest target, for 10-30 secs or until another spell is cast.
"Argumentum ad Populum" You summon an imaginary army of supporters to attack your foes. Summons an army of minions that deal 5-20 damage and persist as long as the spell is maintained.
"Argumentum ad Ignoratum" You point out the enemy must be dead because they cannot prove they are alive. Enemies in within the spell's radius have a 40% chance of sustaining a death blow.
"Argumentum ad Hominem" Your cutting personal remarks send your enemies crying before you in anguish. Adds 5-400 poison damage over 20 secs to Argumentum Verbosium, Argumentum ad Populum, and Argumentum ad Ignoratum
An angel. Or a demon. I would feel a little betrayed if Blizzard included a non-human class in Diablo, because I always felt that the series was the struggle of humans against the forces of Hell while the angels not named Tyrael look on in apathy.
I know that's weird, but my own feelings of how the struggle is shaped like that have caused me to utterly refuse to read any of the Diablo novels, heh. To me, the only canon are the official games, I guess, and my appreciation of the Diablo universe would be permanently ****ed if they finagled a non-human class in the game.

As much as I liked Sacred, I have to admit that the TG is kind of ridiculous. The classes in Sacred 1 were so much more traditional, less ridiculous, and *better* than Sacred 2.
But that's another thing that I think is a fundamental difference between Diablo and Sacred. Diablo is about the struggle of man against Hell and under Heaven, while Sacred is just traditional fantasy tropes with angels and demons and some ridiculousness. Having an angel class and a demon class in Sacred is fine, but if there's an angel class or demon class in Diablo III I'd be upset.
Everyone already beat me to the angel/demon thing...

Hammerdin is not a Class - it's a Build of the Paladin Class.

The Wirt, a thief-class.
Has a class-specific item, the pegleg.
Specializes in 'thievery' skills with 'irritating' damage.
With skills:
Wirt's lag
Stop all action for a random period of time. Similar to the Monk's skill 'bullet-time', which I am sure the guys at Blizzard will come up with at some point.
Burned body
The Wirt pretends to be a dead burning corpse on the ground so mobs will ignore him. (Actually this will be Blizzard's excuse to be able to put Wirt back in the game alive.)
Hey Psst
The Wirt sucks all coins from a mob, then throws back a worthless random item that hits it for substantial irritating damage.
Long-walk-to-NPC
The Wirt teleports to a spot on the map where it takes very long for mobs to get to him.
I'd hate some kind of healer

Death Knight
Actually, I'd play a DK over the "gambler" type class that sneaks its way into RPGs occasionally. If there's a character that throws cards, dice, or coins I'm not buying the game.
The Pacifist
where one player is not an option unless you enjoy staying in town doing nothing. And in multiplayer you nag all the other classes to stop killing the enemies.
Skills include Moral spreading: causes all people around you to hate you more
nonviolence action: where you do absolutely nothing and are killed by fallen
Compassion for all life: You heal the wounded enemies around you, but they then chew your face off
Not making fun of pacifists it's just a joke
Compassion for all life: You heal the wounded enemies around you, but they then chew your face off
Uhaha great
