Diablo 3 classes: All characters including Necromancer, Demon Hunter, and Wizard Blizzard Entertainment \/ DexertoThere are a handful of exciting classes to use in Diablo 3, from Barbarians to Demon Hunters and Wizards, so here\u2019s a full rundown of every character and class available in the game. One of the key features of Blizzard\u2019s Diablo franchise is the numerous unique classes that are available for players to use. The variety that comes with each class\u2019s skills and abilities, alongside the fast-paced combat and in-depth gear system, gives the games a lot of replayability and has helped make the series one of the most popular loot-driven titles of all time. Diablo 3 is still going strong and players are currently enjoying the Season 30 content. If you\u2019re anticipating the release of Diablo 4 after the game\u2019s recent open Beta, there\u2019s no better time to jump into the series\u2019 third entry. Here\u2019s a rundown of all the available classes in Diablo 3. Contents How many classes are in Diablo 3? – Barbarian – Crusader – Demon Hunter – Monk – Necromancer – Witch Doctor – Wizard – How many classes are there in Diablo 3? There are currently seven available classes to play in Diablo 3. The seventh class, the Necromancer, requires the Reaper of Souls DLC to be able to play as them. While Blizzard could always add more, that does seem unlikely with Diablo 4 on the horizon. Diablo 3 class & character list Below, we\u2019ve listed each class in Diablo 3, along with what makes each one unique. Barbarian If you\u2019re a fan of swinging an axe while wearing little more than a bit of steel to cover your modesty, then the Barbarian is for you. They generate \u2018Fury\u2019 within fights by dealing and taking damage, giving them explosive offensive capabilities, and they can wield larger weapons than other classes.

With a huge shield that\u2019s just as good for bashing as it is for being bashed and a bone-crunching flail, there\u2019s really not much \u201cholier than thou\u201d about what they can do to a room full of enemies. Read our Crusader build guide here. Demon Hunter Looking like a metal album cover that\u2019s sprung to life, it\u2019s easy to fall in love with the Demon Hunter\u2019s mix of ranged weapons, magic, and traps. While they\u2019re not the type to get up close and personal with the minions of hell, players will no doubt have fun working with the twin resources of Hatred and Discipline for offensive and defensive abilities alike.

Monk Far from the placid character you may envision, Monks are just as lethal in Diablo 3 as any other class \u2013 whether they\u2019re armed or using their bare fists. If you\u2019re looking to engage in close combat with the enemy, the Monk\u2019s combos and discipline are great fun to use \u2013 just make sure you have enough Spirit left to dodge. Read our Monk build guide here. Necromancer \u2013 DLC required The Necromancer wasn\u2019t always part of Diablo 3, but it\u2019s hard to imagine the game without it now. Able to pull the dead from their graves and send them marching into combat, don\u2019t let their goth aesthetic fool you \u2013 they\u2019re tough in their own right. If players manage their Essence correctly, players can create a wall of the undead to surge at their enemies while flinging spells to keep the battle in their favor. Read our Necromancer build guide here. Witch Doctor Falling somewhere between the Monk\u2019s spirituality and the Necromancer\u2019s propensity for summoning unholy monstrosities, the Witch Doctor is rarely seen alone. Instead, they move with pets \u2013 bats, spiders, zombies, all that lovely stuff. They\u2019re able to debuff enemies for others, but are just as capable of wiping them out solo. Unlike the Wizard, though, Mana doesn\u2019t recharge all that swiftly, so resources need to be carefully managed. Read our Witch Doctor build guide here. Wizard Last, but certainly not least, is the Wizard. While the name may conjure (get it?) images of Gandalf and Dumbledore, these spell-slingers are masters of destruction \u2013 whether using fire, lightning, ice, or wind. Arcane Power regenerates quickly, meaning Wizards can usually be found at the front of the attack, lobbing fireballs and freezing enemies solid. Oh, and did we mention they also have a sword? Wizards also have swords. Read our Wizard build guide here. So, there you have it \u2013 that\u2019s everything you need to know about Diablo 3\u2019s classes and playable characters.
