New Class Revealed: The Wizard - hellforge

BlizzCon is well under way, and the moment that every Diablo fan has been waiting for since the game was announced barely three months ago has finally arrived: the announcement of the new class.


Behold...


THE WIZARD




Holy ****! Who would have figured that?

The description reads: Youthful and headstrong, the upstart Wizard manipulates the primal forces of the universe to vanquish foes.


Joining the previously revealed classes of the Barbarian and the new Witch Doctor, the Wizard is a powerful spellcaster said to manipulate the powers of the elements.

The Wizard is reminiscent of the Sorceress class from Diablo II, and comes equipped with Charged Bolt and Magic Missile spells.

Other spells known to the Sorceress, such as the Frost Nova, Tornado and Blizzard make a strong return in the newly minted Wizard.

Each of the three announced classes, the Wizard, Barbarian and Witch Doctor are playable in both male and female forms. In the demo, the male Wizard is unavailable.


The demo has the player making his or her way through the dense foliage of Tristram Woods into the Tristram Church Dungeon.

More information will be posted within this article as it becomes available!
