And maybe they do something different with the Sorceress, like a Rune Knight or something - swap the two... |

Credits: 66 Spent time on board: 9:11:24 Hours Rep Power: 1 ![]() | Blizz has always had a warrior/Knight type character in the series, so one is most likely included in the lineup other than the barb. I'm positive they will not have the Paladin return as it was way to powerful and superior to most others in many ways. Based on the sound of it, I belive a different type of warrior other than the barb to be in D3 but more along the lines of a holy man without so many battle skills if that makes sense lol.. something about the priest (said in above posts) is probly more likely IMO. Edit: Forgot to mention, hammers are about as likely to reappear in d3 as diablo mating with Andariel to have a Iguana demon spawn child. lmao Last edited by NightShift; 10-22-2008 at 06:50 AM.. |
