Why has no one mentioned female characters??!?? I think it would be pretty friggin awesome to keep the same character classes, but be able to choose whether you want male or female (with some exceptions).

You mean this which is a few posts above yours ....

[IDefy]

A vampire, and not the Necro blood lord one, that clearly is not a vampire.

Non humanoid characters could be interesting, like warcraft.

[cashmoney]

[God_Of_Power]

[seinult]

I definitely agree with being to able to choose your gender.
As for a hero hmm..

Elaboration of the Sorceress into more classes:
Arcane Magician
Elementalist
Void Adept
Rune Magician
Spiritualist

Elaboration of the Barbarian into more classes:
Samurai
Swashbuckler
Brute
(similar stuff)

Elaboration of the Paladin into more classes:
Paladin of Light
Anti-Paladin
War Priest

Elaboration of the Druid into more classes:
Beastmaster
Nature Mage
Lycanthrope
Vampire

Elaboration of the Amazon into more classes:
Headhunter
Demonic Hunter
Weapon Maiden

Elaboration of the Nercromancer into more classes:
Necromancer (can't think of a substitute) (summoner)
The Damned (more curses,spiritual stuff)
Unholy Priest

and stuff like those LoL.

[Dillphack]

I personally would like to see a parrot-cooking, one-eyed (the other eye patched), swashbuckling, ice-cream eating, mustache twisting, salty, sailing sea dog pirate or pirate hooker (with a dirty whorish mouth) character class with a treasure chest for burrying or luring in monsters so you never have to go anywhere to grind exp, and also give him a cannon skill (with a midget with a pegged leg to manipulate the cannon), and also a parrot attack skill (for him to raise a blood-thirsty, eye-pecking ravenous parrot to attack from the high helm that is his shoulder) while also having a class specific item being the cumberbund or eye patch or possibly glass eye to upgrade the drunken stuper skill. There could also be a skill tree similar to the barbarians war cry, but instead it uses filthy language to crack on the monsters and minions bitches-for-mothers in orfder to decrease thier combat skills and sensibility in utrn making them turn on fellow minions, while at the same time the pirate need not carry potions for when he is in need of health he simply needs to summon a wench from town, also possibly being able to acquire class specific items such as a hook hand or claw hand with increased attack ratings, they would also be able to use feather (similar to rune or jewel) insertable into the hat to increase effects such as prostitute laying (which increases health and mana similar to battle orders). end text

[SamNatasnogard]

Class
I want some class that have melee and magic Skill
like Red mage in Final fantasy

Race
Demon
Dragon

[Shadow_Drifter]

I rekon a system akin to L2 would work.

Fundamental Classes -

Warrior - Basic class that is base of Knight, Mercenary, Barbarian

Sage - Basic class for Druid, Paladin

Apprentice - Basic class for Mage, Necromancer, Sorcerer

Rogue - Baseic class for Assassin, Thief

Hunter - Basic class for Amazon, Ranger

Reasoning: The way I think this way is because a base class would provide some funadamental requirements for like classes. (eg an Assassin wouldnt be all that much different from a Theif except a thief can break open locked items and perhaps has better defence then an assassin would)

Knight - Excellent Sword and Shield style fighter with proficency in plate (plate armours dont degrade as fast with a knight)

Mercenary - Specialises in Dual Wielding swords and axes. His movements are quick and somewhat deceptive. Highly skilled technical fighter

Barbarian - A powerhouse. Slower attack speeds with high damage output. Movements are quicker with lighter armour

Druid - At one with nature. Can summon multiple creatures, can have a perminate small pet (hawk, rat something along those line NOT FOR DMG but for stat boosting - like an aura but for himself) Also power over elemental earth.

Paladin - Plate wearing mace warrior. Has the power of the divine within him. Able to heal teammates. Paladins specialise in mace combat (bonus to mace fighting)

Mage (Men Only) - Master of Elemental Air and and wielder of the Divine light. Mages can use the power of air to force enemies backwards, propel objects and pull items to themselves. Able to chock enemies by cutting off their air they also are skilled in divine attack spells

Necromancer - Master of decay, they can tap into the lifestream and prevent and reanimate the dead. Also able to bring inanimate objects to life in the forms of golems and curse the constitution of their foes

Sorcerer (sorceress) - Masters of Fire, Water and Lightning. They can bend these deadly forces to their will

Assassin (Women Only)- Telepathic attackers the fight from the shadow. Able to swiftly work against an enemy, they work well with hit and run tactics. Only assassins may use punch daggers and like weapons. They lay mechanical totems that attack enemies that draw near

Theif - A support class, excelles in the use Kamas, Kukuris and other exotic blades. The only class that can unlock chests without keys as well as disarm traps. They may lay poisonous traps and exploding traps that deal tremendous damage to those that stand on them.

Amazon - Excels with the Spear, Javalin and Bow. Her skill with these weapons are unparralleled.

Ranger - Excellent tracker and loremaster. Only class able to identify item without scrolls. His skill with a bow is masterful (though not as good as the amazon) his bow technique is completely different. An excellent swordsmen and at later levels can dual wield (swords and dagers only). Also able to lay traps, that snare the enemy into a certain spot, catch on fire or impale the monster. Can summon a combat pet (not permanent)

so what do you guys think?

[Lt.Devils_Skull]

I think that they should make the game as to which it has some of all the blizzard games... WoW settings(Gender/Characters/Choice of Weapon,Armor etc) StarCraft(Zerg/Zealot/n the other one cant remember) along with the same Diablo stuff(Necro/Sorc/Druid/Amazon/Pally/Barb) along with the Merc. Another idea of Char... would be the following:
- Warrior(Gun Handled Man)
- Angel
- Demons
- Ogers

I think they should allow the Druids to transform into many different animals instead of Wolf n Bear... Mayb a bat, eagle something other then a wolf or bear... also they should make the druid transform dead monsters into animals like dogs, wolves, foxes nething that has 4 legs n is agressive who will also listen to his master (of course)

All for nothin, they should make some side quests while doin reagular quests for the respectful act like in Grand Theft Auto. Also they should add more acts with more powerful creatures to fight.

The Secret Cow Level should be kept in the game but change a few things.
First of all, there should be more cows and more Cow King like cows but dont have the same cost for killing them(u cant create another cow level if u kill king) Thats another thing that has to go... if its a SCL u should be able to kill the king, collect his items and be able to remake another Cow Level. There should be a healing zone only for Characters becuase goin to Town to heal then comin back to a TP full of cows is worthless... then u have to leave, make a new game n start all over again...

The should make a bracelet section for the character along with new weapons(e.g. guns, sling shots) Also the potions section should include a potion that heals everything(health, mana, stamina, and durablility) i mean your wasting space with the health potions, mana potions, stamina potions and goin to town everytime your item durablility runs out. There should be more keys(not just 12 but more like 20 or 30) and the Stash size should increase everytime u gain 10 lvls.

On the levels note, there should be more then 99 levels and more difficulty modes. At least make the Char. level up to 1000 or something inbetween 100-1000. If they deside to do that, then add another difficulty mode that has only 100-200, 201-300, so on until 1000 to test the skills of the char. instead of pickin on those who are at lower level then they are.

There should be a way to travel that doesnt insist of just walkin/running... try adding a horse or donkey which would also make room for the merc, BUT still be treated as a regular char. like it should have health, armor, and die normally or by old age.

They should make more use of the gold instead of just repairing items, buying items, but be used to fuse items etc. Along wif fusing items, there should be a special area (like in WoW) where u can make certain items out of certain items, or make items out of the weapons, armor, rings, charms, bottles this n that what ever u have u can use to make an item.

Also they should be able to upgrade there weapon but still be able to keep the original states(like increase strenght by 5, or 50% more dmg to Demons) but add another state or add to the original ones.

If the game were like that it would be the single handed most best Blizzard Game, and PC game ever made...

[Shadow_Drifter]

Diablo should stick purely to the human race.

Diablo is about the struggle between heaven and hell while humans are caught in the middle.

However i like the idea about a pack mule. maybe if you could hire it like a mercenary, or ultimately buy it and give it basic commands (stay, follow, flee) then you could have an extra storage space.

Diablos timeline is long before guns, (blunderbuss or otherwise).

Druids... I think for fighting keep it bear or wolf, but maybe as a transport mode have a bat (fly over spaces etc) but bat mode should drain mana instead of having a timelimit. This would ensure that PvP against a druid wont mean you wont have a chance of catching up to it.

I still think it should be lvl 100 though (it would take FOREVER to lvl to 1000 and ultimately boring)

Doesnt the rejuvination potion give you all your stats back (excpet cancelling conditions)

[Permaphrost]

Some interesting ideas, especially regarding being able to be good or evil. However, for the most part, I'm really glad none of you are in charge of adding content to the game.

A gazillion classes makes the game overly complicated, and thus, not fun to play. Plus a pain in the ass for the developers to balance.

Good thinkin bout the bat draining mana... but how bout drain some of the health... mayb not 1000 lvls but at least a lil more then 100... its like ur guy lvls 100 than thats it! How bout for a druid move "EarthQuake"... tru bout the guns part... i dont know what i was thinkin bout sayin that
