So...skill tree and gameplay report?

[Naja]

We just saw the Barbarian's. When is the Witch Doctor's due?

[Apocalypse]

i want to see the witch doctor skills also but from what i hear they were in limited quantity at blizzcon

[Naja]

Low amount of skills or not, I still want to read an extended piece about the Witch Doctor's skills, and how the character played.

We've already gotten the Barbarian and Wizard. Let's not forget the coolest, darkest character.

I think i remember him saying "later this weekend" but i'm not quite sure when exactly that is seeing as its about 9:30pm Sunday where i am...

i second naja. I can't wait to see what his skill tree is like!

disappointing to hear from the attendees at blzzcon that there isn't another summon really, though the mongrel does sound pretty amazing to me.

No other summon?

I remember the first gameplay video's narrater saying that the Mongrel was "the first of these summons".

The Witch Doctor is currently the least developed character. It has like 10 skills total.

It strikes me as odd that Blizz chose to release such an underdeveloped char. When the Barb and the WD were introduced both had few skills. Now the Barb has a lot and the WD still has precious few.

I also wonder why they didn't show the Barb, WD and Wiz with about 15-20 skills at BlizzCon. That way they could have released skills about once a month and easily gain some hype for the next year. Instead the Wiz is almost complete and the Barb isn't far behind.

I think Blizz knew they had to have a Barb and Sorc char. They were probably the first two they worked on which is why they are further along in the development process.

I think the WD was released with the Barb so Blizz could say "look something new". He is probably still very much a work in progress.

pretty much what i thought. the WD was supposed to be thier big shock for the announcement and it caused alot of anger lol. the wizard being new but like a old char would come 3rd i expect the 5th to be the biggest change of all with the archer next

I remember reading that the WD they had at blizzcon was a month behind where they actually were, so it could be equally developed
