A blend of holy magic and high defense would be a good foil to the wide arsenal of the Barbarian in Diablo 4 or the speediness of the Rogue and hit-and-run tactics of the Sorceress. RELATED: Diablo is the Dark Souls of Dungeon Crawlers The Case for a Paladin in Diablo 4īringing a new version of the Paladin could add interesting options to the available classes. With two casters (albeit one with a bear form) and the Rogue, a tank-style Paladin or Crusader variant would fit the mold well. The Barbarian is similar but seems to have options for faster builds similar to the Amazon from older games. A heavy melee class with certain magic options for buffs and AOE attacks would help round out the possibilities. The Rogue is returning from the original Diablo as well, so the return of the Paladin is a very likely choice for the next character. The return of the Paladin or some variant like the Crusader would be a good fit for Diablo 4.ĭiablo 4 seems to be bringing back characters from its older iterations like the Druid from Diablo 2. However, now that Diablo 4 has just one remaining class to be revealed, it's likely that another heavy melee class will round out the cast of classes. There's still a lot of speculation about the next class to be revealed, as there are many archetypes that could fit well. Typically, the Diablo starting classes are fairly well-balanced in terms of types of gameplay options.

Diablo 4 has announced four of its five starting character classes so far: the Barbarian, Druid, Sorceress, and Rogue.
