Summary
Diablo 4players desperately want a Paladin-style class to be added to the game. InDiablo 4, players have five classes to choose from before creating their character. Each class has a specific play style, and all are deeply related to the context of the game and the state of Sanctuary.
The Barbarian is the best option forDiablo 4players who enjoy classic melee combat. Consideredone of the best classes inDiablo 4, the Rogue is suitable for players who like to be silent assassins. The Sorcerer, on the other hand, is the traditional high-risk, high-reward class in RPGs, because while it is very fragile, it can unleash huge damage numbers with its spells. The Druid is a shapeshifter who can switch between human, werebear, and werewolf forms, able to fight both hand-to-hand and using magic. Finally, the Necromancer has a safer style of play. Necros can use a wide variety of weapons, but their focus is on using the corpses they summon.

Reddit user Secondusx shared their desire to see a Paladin class added toDiablo 4. They say they don’t understand whyDiablo 4doesn’t have a “holy warrior” class, since the story is about the war between angels and demons. They then recalled the Crusader,one ofDiablo 3’s playable classes, which Blizzard added to the game after launch. Saddened that Blizzard hadn’t included the Crusader inDiablo 3since its release, they got excited about the chance ofDiablo 4having a Paladin, to once again get frustrated. The player closes by saying that one of their biggest problems withDiablo 3andDiablo 4was feeling like they weren’t having fun with certain classes.
Several players agreed with Secondusx’s post, and one player suggested that this Paladin class inDiablo 4could be called “Heretic.” Another player believes the Paladin is still coming to the game, but only at the launch of the first expansion.Diablo 4will release paid expansionsbut hasn’t yet given many more details. Another player said they thought it was an “instant foot shot” thatDiablo4 didn’t have a sword and board class from the beginning, as it’s something found in almost every medieval fantasy game.
