Kfc offers diablo 4 early access if u order its sandwich. Just saw it yesterday and people have shown pictures confirming u do get a code for early access while supplies last in kfc
The combat looks exactly the same as it did when they presented d3; in fact, everything about this looks like a reskinned d3. If Blizzard's recent failures are any indication of the direction this game is going to go, then it is going to be a disappointment.
I’ve played Diablo since the original and I feel like for the first time, I will run all of the classes because they are so unique and look so bad ass!
@@zPhantomganon I actually disliked most of the d3 classes. I liked barbarian and crusader only. D3 Necromancer was a letdown, I hated witchdoctor, demon hunter wasn't as good as fun as amazon IMO
Necro seems awesome as per usual but I'm feeling druid this time around. More impressed with the visuals for the class then necro. Though I like the ability to be able to customize your summons, it kind of sucks that druid doesn't have something similar.
Could you imagine how much money blizz could make if they sold cosmetics changing the lol of skeleton minions into something else crazy or maybe have your werebear / werewolf look undead / half decayed or change effects of sorc spells.
@@Daventry85 most people wouldn't even argue if that was a thing, I'd love my necros skellies to look like magma creatures or my wolves to look like lightning elk or something.
yes on the paladin,,, but it may be missing due to story... i would think the story is going to take a twist that makes the paladin appear after a expansion for sure
Kanon, Your video here, is not the first one I have seen on the topic of class guides for Diablo 4. I have seen about 3 or 4 others in the past few weeks, but your video is by far, the best. You managed to summarize all the essential important and relevant details in a neat little condensed package, without filler or fluff, and you narrated it clearly and concisely. Which is a huge improvement over the other content providers here on RUclips who seem to rush through their video at breakneck speed while talking way too fast to follow. I will rewatch this video daily until the early beta comes out and during so I can use it as a roadmap for each class I play for both weekends. I have played Diablo 3 on my PC, PS4 and Nintendo Switch for a combined 5,000+ hours since it's release, and I have played each class from start to high level Paragon levels multiple times and love each one. Rogue and Necromancer have always been by top 2 favorites, but I also enjoy playing the sorcerer and the Diablo 4 version looks insane. The Druid is what I am most excited about as it is a new class for me and I plan on making it my main once the game officially launches. Thanks for making this awesome video, I have just subscribed to your channel as well to see your future Diablo 4 content.
I'm planning to try necromancer as it's one of my favorate classes to play with, but your build with the rogue (twisting blades) has made my decision way harder. Keep it up man!
Glad to see they brought back the Druid class from D2. Now I'm just hoping they add more ways to customize our characters more(skin tone, gender, hair, etc.).
Thanks Kanon, I was pretty sure I was going to end up rolling a barb, but now I see I have no idea what I am going to choose when they all look that good!
Going Barbarian for the Early Beta and probably for the open on as well My main goal is to hit the levels required to get the cosmetic stuff And if I have time after, experiment with the other classes But also Barbarian was the class I absolutely loved and mained in D2R and my primary class in D3
Great video, I usually am too lazy to follow everything seperatly and just wait before the beta is practically here to see what classes actually do. First beta rogue is my first choice, then sorc and barb, next week necro and druid. Not a big fan of every class just having the same system with main resource and basic skills to generate it but maybe with new class systems it will be more interesting than it is in D3.
Played the druid in open beta and had a blast. But everything looks interesting so I just rolled a dice. Ended up with the druid! It's destiny I guess haha! Very informative video, good job with it mate.
stave = a vertical wooden post or plank in a building or other structure. staff = a long stick used as a support when walking or climbing or as a weapon.
The sorc changed between this video and the beta, the level 15 enchantment works a little different. Any ability that you have access to (like from an ammy that gives +1 all defensive skills, even abilities you don't already have) can be placed in the enchantment, whether you're using the ability or not, and you gain an additional passive bonus to your character. For example, blizzard and meteor both summon a blizzard or a meteor every X seconds, so you just get free bliz/meteor while having 6 other active abilities. The ice blades passive was actually OP and will probably need to be nerfed, because the passive summons an Ice Blade every time you cast 20 seconds worth of cooldown's, which is, for example, 1 ice blade cast (so you now just get 2 Ice Blades per cast), 1 Ice Armor cast, or about 1.5 casts of frost nova. The really OP part was the enhanced Ice Blades, which causes every hit of the blades on a vulnerable target (most hits with all the legos setup) to cause one of the cooldowns to be reduced by 1 second. So, every cooldown used gives you more blades which reduce your cooldowns which give you more blades, and you can see how this can get a out of hand. The Deep Freeze ultimate just literally gives you 3 free Ice Blades every time you cast it, and the enhanced DF halves the remaining CD on all your other abilities after finishing. The whole build was something else...
Yes Rogue! Demon Hunter for me in iii, up to around 117 solo rifts with impale. Loves it. Looks like tons of fun with iv as being a close direct sequel to iii.
Before watching this, I thought I was determined to have my starting character as a Druid or Rogue cuz they are new to me since I've only played d3 but debuffs, curses, dots and darkness magic is something I love a lot and Necros are going to have that now. I can't wait for early access
@@cjerp Not quite. Rogue can be exvlusively ranged, exclusively melee, or hybrid of both. Demon hunter didnt exactly have that versatility even tho demon hunter did have a couple melee legendaries and a set for melee but it wasn't even melee really because u threw the knives.
Hello, So, you just gave your opinion about nowadays rpgs and you criticise (and i agree with you) that even before the games come out, everything is already on the internet and everyone just copy some guy with meta builds and so on, instead of learning the game by themselves without being a robot behind the monitor just doing ctrl c and ctrl v. And now you just upload a video with the ultimate class guide and everything i need to know....... thank you for the spoilers and thank you for letting me know everything in the game before the game come out. I think i don't need to play it anymore. Many thanks, keep contributing for the thing you just criticise about rpgs.
The rogue looks a lot like both the original rogue from D1, and the assassin add-on class from D2. I had an immense amount of fun with both classes so that would be my go-to. The other classes do look interesting though so I'd certainly give each one a try out. I'd love to see the Monk return of the classes that aren't currently in. I also hope they do a companion thing like in D2. I kept the rogue acolyte I rescued for my assassin and eventually found the "Skystrike Bow" (I think, it looks close but I thought the one I had was "Starstrike") for her to use. The first time the bow caught the chance for the meteor summon I didn't know what was going on, I panicked and ran away. :D
I'm running a frost bow Rogue, EZ clap it's what I tend to play in these types of games. play a mm hunter in wow, demon hunter in d3 bowazon in d2 and yeah ranged glass cannon high risk high reward is my jam!
Necro army. Here I come. Although I hope in expansion content we get a return to the D2 Paladin. Miss my early game holy fire builds. Just running around watching the world burn. :)
My main gripe with diablo games is the limited array of skills, only using 5 skills at a time really kills the fun in the long run imho, that's why i enjoyed Path of exile or grim dawn/torchlight more than diablo 3
I hope they took some notes from path of exile and made it so you can play any class with any type of build. That’s the best way to play these games. A marauder shouldn’t have to be stuck being a tank
Sorc main since OG D1, so that's my first one. Might dabble a bit of Necro or Druid to get a feel for them, as they both have caster playstyle options as well.
Looks great but I miss old diablo 2 1-0 on the keyboard for spells. Loved the customization of it but understand how its gotta be console oriented now too. Great video though sir!
These are really cool but as a fan of the melee holy warriors theme (Crusader, Paladin, Monk etc) there is not class at launch that intrigues me to play the game at launch. I'm sure they will add more classes later but still...

You need to look up the definition of unique.

Since I can’t decide I’ll be doing necro and Druid.
Ironically the meta for necromancer is gonna be not using your minions

Wasn't too interested in sorc until I saw those animations. Good stuff and great info.
Really nice guide man, you covered even more than I expected (ie druid/necro classes) and super efficiently
I'm planning to try necromancer as it's one of my favorate classes to play with, but your build with the rogue (twisting blades) has made my decision way harder. Keep it up man!
This was a very thorough synopsis . Druid & Necromancer all the way!
I always loved your lost ark stuff, glad to see you're gonna branch out into d4 content too--at least for a little bit.
thanks for sticking around
Glad to see they brought back the Druid class from D2. Now I'm just hoping they add more ways to customize our characters more(skin tone, gender, hair, etc.).
Your commitment to learning game insight and creating top tier content from it is insane bro. Awesome overview of the classes!
Thank you for this video. It made clear a lot of things for me. I usually go for dexterity classes but now I will go for Barb and Necro.
Same bro
you think necro would be better than vwitch doctor?
@@Turtlemilk I tried Necro in Beta and she was a BLAST. I loved how dark the class feels. To suck their life out etc :)
Thanks for the guide, so far one of the best on youtube.
I am gonna go Rogue, I like using mixed weapon play style. All classes look cool though will try them all out.
its so good watching you grow and stay consistant from game to game kanon. keep it up!
Great video best video I’ve seen on explaining all the skills and every different class. Great job.
thank you brother
Thank you for this great guide!
Druid class looks fun as hell for me! Cant wait to try it out
The fact Necro is here at the start makes me excited for the dlc classes
Necromancer with "The Army" goes hard, looking forward to it.
ahahhahaha heres hoping its bugged so we'll be able to summon at least 20 skeletons 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ik we haven't seen much, but I think they snapped with the druid. Definitely play that class first
Thanks Kanon, I was pretty sure I was going to end up rolling a barb, but now I see I have no idea what I am going to choose when they all look that good!
Just close your eyes and pick one randomly where the mouse or controller rests on.
Very informative without spoiling gameplay or endgame. Great job 👍🏾 Think I’ll be going necro
For someone like me who haven't played diablo since ps2 this was a great video. I will try the game tonight and Se if a like it
One of the nice touches is that the Sorc's skills use the name and icon of Diablo 1 or 2 spells, when available.
Going Barbarian for the Early Beta and probably for the open on as well
My main goal is to hit the levels required to get the cosmetic stuff
And if I have time after, experiment with the other classes
But also Barbarian was the class I absolutely loved and mained in D2R and my primary class in D3
Necromancer is my pick for sure! But this time I might actually try and play all the classes. They all sound fun. I'm pretty stoked!
you think necro would be better than vwitch doctor?
Archer/ranger/bow user was always my go-to class in most my played games.
Necro or Druig! OMG! This game brings back so much memories! Thanks for posting this!
Necro, it's the only class that kept me stay with the game since the beginning.
you think necro would be better than vwitch doctor?
Same here
@@Turtlemilk Necro is way better. I hated when they brought that stupid witch doctor in!!!

Not a big fan of every class just having the same system with main resource and basic skills to generate it but maybe with new class systems it will be more interesting than it is in D3.
After reading Solo Leveling I went from, "I'll never play Necromancer" to "Arise" Looking forward to Diablo 4.
Have to do what I did for the last three….Sorc through and through. Looks amazing!!
I’ve been split between barb and necro since D2. I tend to favor crayon eating and smashing as my play style but might start with necro first.
Played the druid in open beta and had a blast. But everything looks interesting so I just rolled a dice. Ended up with the druid! It's destiny I guess haha! Very informative video, good job with it mate.

staff = a long stick used as a support when walking or climbing or as a weapon.
Companions and minions.. that's all I needed to hear lol. Awesome job on this overview though!
Whatever classes are most similar to Demon Hunter and Monk are what I will be playing. I never enjoyed any other classes but those
Same, which of these 5 do u think
Nec was my first pick in Diablo 2, first one I played.
You’ll be streaming D4 when it drops on twitch? Just followed you on there and subscribed to ya channel… hopefully to see diablo 4 content
druid looks very refreshing, necro system seems cool too
melee necro blood build with sword and shield would be sick

Great video!
This summary got me PUMPED!!
Visually this game looks incredible. God I hope it ends up being good.
I'm always enthralled with the cool classes of diablo and then end up just going with big man with big sword
If I wind up buying this game,Necromancer is definitely the way to go
I will say, in earlier tests, Necromancer was way OP, which also made it very fun. I'm sure they've been toned down a bit, we'll see in Beta
Sometimes that comes down to mechanics... Some of the other classes don't have. bufffs, debufs, shields, curses and pets all at the same time...
Necromancer! I used to do bone-type or summon-mancer before in D2.

Ahhh yes. Way back in 2001 I was a Summonmancer. Good to be back home.
I really hope they add an Archangel and Demon class. That’d be so neat.
I'm 97% sure that this will be the twist on Diablo V, play as a demon or as an angel. Completely different pov
Druid sounding pretty dope!!
I'll probably play the following in order:
1. Barb
2. Sorcerer
3. Rogue
4. Necro
5. Druid
I'm running a frost bow Rogue, EZ clap it's what I tend to play in these types of games. play a mm hunter in wow, demon hunter in d3 bowazon in d2 and yeah ranged glass cannon high risk high reward is my jam!
Druid looks so cool. beast mode!
Ahhh my beloved necro is back... tbh i cant wait to play both rogue and necro...........
They all look great, but I'm extremely disappointed in the lack of a Paladin/Crusader style class
It'll come later
My top two choices is Druid and Necro. But will probably make a Barb too.
A little disappointed that my crusader wont be in the game, but oh well guess I’ll go Necro.
Druid and Necro are going to be my two main!
Necro army. Here I come.
Although I hope in expansion content we get a return to the D2 Paladin. Miss my early game holy fire builds. Just running around watching the world burn. :)
I was hoping for a Crusader/Paladin. Not sure what I'll play maybe Barbarian
My main gripe with diablo games is the limited array of skills, only using 5 skills at a time really kills the fun in the long run imho, that's why i enjoyed Path of exile or grim dawn/torchlight more than diablo 3
Path of exile simply has too big of a skill tree
1st playthrough: Rouge
2nd playthrough: Necromancer
3rd playthrough: Druid
I am most definitely going Druid
Going Druid. Turn in to a bear and play with puppies... sign me up
Necro is my favorite from 3 but I think I going to go Druid first.
Totally going to Run Druid
I would go Druid if it was more nature-based rather than shapeshifter, but I guess i'll be Sorcerer like the D3 Wizard
Necromancer is and always will be my main 😭🖤😤
Great video, I rocked the Sorc and the Rogue mainly for the NDA beta, so I'm rolling with Barb and Druid for the these two beta weekend's.
Pretty sure the upcoming beta only has barb, sorc, and rogue
Early beta next weekend has those 3 classes, but the open beta the following weekend adds the Necro and Druid.
@@rodneyamidon271 awesome
Normally always Barbarian,fighter,knight, ect.. regardless of the game. But the Rouge sounds interesting 🤔 Druid sounds wild tho..

Cannot wait to launch that boulder to knock enemies off cliffs all around the world.
Looks great but I miss old diablo 2 1-0 on the keyboard for spells. Loved the customization of it but understand how its gotta be console oriented now too. Great video though sir!
Rogue and Druid for me.
I think Asmond picked Necro so he doesn't have to change much in the character creator 😂
I think I will play barb, but druid looks amazing as well. It's hard to decide. I'll probably try them both.
Thank you for a nice and pro video.. I played the Beta, Rouge and Druide. I been playing since day one, in 1995 i think 🙂
my teacher was totally roasting your video today. he said he commented yesterday.
I've always used the demon hunter so I'm gonna have to try the Rogue
These are really cool but as a fan of the melee holy warriors theme (Crusader, Paladin, Monk etc) there is not class at launch that intrigues me to play the game at launch.

Game is too expensive for me but I would start with Sorc and then Necromancer ;) Cool info thx
I never hear this game before but im might play it after it released
Head in just chomping them down, let's go
Barbarian and Necromancer looking clean
God I hope they add something like legion raids, it will really complete it imo
