Not sure what character to make for my first playthrough.

Diablo thread

Is that even a question?

druid

Barbarian

necromancer

>start as necromancer
>summon 10 skeletons and a blood golem
>watch bones rattle as you level up

my skelebro

For first playthrough you should really just go barbarian since it's the most straightforward
You'll be able to get a feel for the game easier and really appreciate it more, save some of the more op classes like necro for other playthroughs

...

Dude, lag, desummon

NECROFAGS GET OUT

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>tfw you summon more

DAVE THE BARBARIAN

Summon necro without teleport is literal hell. Thankfully he's not that gear dependent(you can win the game in your underwear) so you can just use the ring with teleport charges if you can't afford Enigma (playing offline alone).

Enjoy maggot's lair and Arcane sanctuary.

>2 skeles

Oh fuck boys what's the ceiling on this

>boys
Check your privilege, sh*tlord.

Shhh, don't spoil the surprise.

Over twenty, not counting skeleton mages, golems or revived creatures

Yeah, he's going to need a ton od gear for that.

Put some points in curses OP.

LOOKING FOR BHAAL?

>Put some points in curses OP.
dont bother putting more than one point in each curse
just get amplify damage at first, you wont need anything else for a while

Years of playing D2 and I never made a single assassin build
Why was she so shit Sup Forums

you're shit

>skeleton mages
Why bother with mages? Amp Damage will break most any Physical Immune status, allowing your standard skeletons, revives, mercs, and Corpse Explosion to clear enemies.

Use /players 8 to hit 24 prior to Duriel and get Decrepify to avoid a headache.

subtle

>t. natalya

Assassin is not shit.... its average.

PvM
Sorc > Pally > Ama > Ass > Necro > Druid > Barb

Pvp
Sorc > Pally > Ass > Barb > Ama > Necro > Druid


The Druid is by far the worst class in the game, followed by Necro.
They are the only two classes that are useless since all the other classes can do what they do but better.

>Sorc > Pally
excuse me this isn't expansionless diablo 2 anymore

With the right gear and runes PvE Pally shits on everything. Sorc is about a million times easier to set up though.

>PvM
>Sorc > Pally > Ama > Ass > Necro > Druid > Barb
it's not really that simple
it depends a lot what you're doing and how good your gear is

>necro that far down
>not gathering loot in hell mode in your MF undies while your minions do the work
>not locking down bosses with decrepify, clay golem, and cold damage
>not keeping ranged allies out of harm with a goddamn army
>not locking down ranged enemies in hell mode with dim vision
>not clearing the entire zone with corpse explosion casts
>not being the one versatile bastard that everyone wants in the party

>2 MANNY SKELLES U LAG MY COMPEWTR STOPPP

I always had fun with those tools. I had a max summons necro just for those guys.

I like assassin. She's fine.
