the barb is the heavly armoed class whit shelds  most likey is going to be a beast master there is no minnon based class yet  the bow is  most likely going to be good but only add bounes to the amount and power of the pets you can have

I agree with you, it just makes perfect sense that they go that direction for the next class. Anything else is not the usual ways of doing things.

There is a minion class; the witchdoctor has a dog, fire bats, wall of zombies, locusts and toads.

I have no idea what 5th class will be except to agree with others saying it's likely gonna be an archer/ranger/rogue type class because that logically seems like the missing piece.  But I think it's equally likely that Blizzard might choose something else for the last class.

Uh are we talking about the same game here?  There is a priest, it's the Monk 

As for a char with demonic powers, that wouldn't make sense; demons have those powers, not the human characters we'll play in D3.

oh yer dident think about the monk. well but it could some guy who had been gifted with devil power like big claws demon skin and he hates demons because the power made him hated in the world becuase he is got the demons taint

Lmfao... at what Jackie wrote...
Dude, thats contradicting the game... sorta..
Were heavenly, we were placed to help out heaven, because Hell is trying to conquer Heaven...
We can't have any demonic characters to be on heavens side... thats just stupid.

i think it would be really sweet to have somesort of non-human class. like a minotaur, or even a type of undead class. the minotaurs could use bigger weapons (like 2-h axes, giants swords etc.), and have more primitive type skills like headbutt, and like a charge attack and just gouge the enemy with your horns.

or.. a centaur with a bow and arrow!

ah... sexy female centaur...

Blizzard: The range weapon mystery class has been resolved.

I think they might create something totally different. They fused Assasin and Necromancer into a Witch Docrot- I mean look at his skills, undead, curses, poisons, bombs etc.

That put me off a bit, yet now I look at a wild Shaman which gives a nice exotic climate to the game.

They gave us a Monk (which was in the D1 hellfire), and made him kind of a pseudo shao-lin ancient warrior (super natural speed, body perfection and he does looks a bit like them), Classical to Diablo classes barbarian and Wizard remained, I think they might hit us with something we would never see coming, like Demonologist (let fire be fought with fire!) that can change form into some Demonic shapes and cast spells of madness and pure dark destrucion, also armed with some charmed horrific weapons.

I look at it as in D2,  classes: Good(Paladin), Neutral(barbarian) Good (Sorcerres), Good (Amazon), Dark (Necromancer), Dark (Assasin), Good(Druid), or classify them as you want.

So here is something to think about, since we have Monk(Good), Wizard (neutral I guess this time), Barbarian(neutral), and Which Doctor, which might be neutral/evil, for he weilds dark forces.

So I think they might add someone ultra evil, like Soul Harvester ir Demonologist, or maybe dark knight (just throwing random names, no agenda intended), or maybe someone not too dark.

What you think about that?

I dont think they will make someone dark and demonic, my oppinion they should make something more heavenly, better then the character " The Paladin".
It would be kinda cool to have demon looking and demonic skills in the game, but my oppinion it would ruin the story I find..

I had a thought awhile ago that Blizz seems to be using the geography of Sanctuary for character inspiration. The new D3 classes are drawn from previously unknown areas/peoples of Sanctuary. To recap:

D2

Barbarian - Northern Steppes, Area around Mt. Arreat

Paladin - Westmarch

Amazon - Skovos Isles?

Sorceress - Eastern Jungles

Necromancer - Swamp Land?

Druid - Scosglen

Assassin - ?

D3 

Monk - Ivgorod (south of Barbaian lands)

Wizard - Xiansai

Witch Doctor - Torajan Jungles

If you look at the map there's still a few unknown areas like the Dreadlands and Dry Steppes (not much known about the Swamp Land either), maybe the new class will come from one of these or a new area that will be introduced.  Of course this still doesn't tell us what the 5th class could be unless someone has more info.

i think they should do something like a dark night but it doesnt have to be called a dark night.

maybe he/she could be someone who was raised in hell or something and taught the "dark powers" and he didnt want to be evil so he broke free and is now fighting back. you know how the sorc has fire arrows and all that jaz, this guy or girl could have magic sword abilities, i know it doesnt make sense but it could be like a necro and a palidon mix sort of deal. but not summoning creatures and junk.

I have many ideas for the 5th and final class, or maybe the future expansion (I know they haven't said anything about an expansion but you know blizz will make one =P), but my two favorite are:  Ranger and Templar

Really the reason these are my favorite is because they are both different than the released classes.

The Ranger uses bows, crossbows, and/or dual wields daggers or swords.  The Ranger, for both male and female, should look young, maybe in their 20s, and almost all of the armor sets should have hoods.  They also use many nature abilities including vines, thorns, leeching arrows, and summoning plants (the plants can't move, but they spit poison darts from a distance or bite/eat nearby enemies).  The Ranger should also have many survival moves to add strategy and makeup for his/her lack of heavy armor, maybe including a quick dash and higher dodge rating.

The Templar uses a huge shield, along with a sword, mace,or axe.  The Templar wears heavy armor, but is much more sophisticated than the Barbarian and the armor should look less.... well... 'barabric' than the Barbarians'.  All Templars also have a horn for an extra weapon they use for certain abilites and a banner, each one would give a different passive buff to the Templar and possibly the party during online play.  Because the Barbarian uses brute strength, the Templar would mainly focus on defensive skills and maybe even have some actually magical abilities.

so those are two of my ideas, if anyone wants me to, I'll post more.  Feel free to 'improve' my ideas, I'd love to see what you guys can think of.        Sorry if there are any grammar/spelling mistakes =P

They should put a knight or something.... they need a character in diablo 3 that is noble like a knight that uses a sword and a shield

You're a Paladin fan aren't you 

i dont have many ideas but if they should put any new char into the game it should be something very suprising like a samurai
