Changes

[[File:New-stats-paperdoll.jpg|thumb|300px|Paperdoll, inventory, and character stats all in one.]]The term "Paper Doll" refers to the human figure seen in the Inventory window, which players dress up with various items. In Diablo III the paper doll is part of the [[Inventory]] menu.

This After many iterations, the same window contains the paper doll, the [[interfaceinventory]] has undergone numerous revisions during , and the gamecharacter's development. The most recentattributes and stats, seen which were formerly displayed in August 2010, the character window. (That window was said by removed from the [[D3 Team]] to be nearly-final, and unchanged game during the past six+ months of developmentlate beta testing.)

[[File:New-stats-paperdoll.jpg|thumb|300px|Paper doll, beta version 12.]]The [[Diablo III]] version of the inventory/paper doll is changed altered in a variety of numerous ways. The [[Inventory]] page details the improvements to the inventory and character storage space. Other differences include:

* There are two more item three new armor slots in Diablo III -- [[Shoulder PadShoulders]]s and , [[Pant]]s are new item types, joining the [[Helm]], [[Amulet]], [[Ring]]s, [[Chest Armor]], [[Belt]], [[Feet|Boots]], [[Hands|Gloves]], and [[weapons|Weapon slots]] of [[Diablo IIBracers]](wrists).

* There is probably not going to be Returning armor types consist of: [[Helm]], [[Amulet]], two [[Ring]]s, [[Chest Armor]], [[Belt]], [[Boots]], [[Gloves]], [[shield]], and [[weapons|Weapon slots]] of [[Diablo II]].** The [[off hand]] slot can hold shields, [[Monk]]s and [[Barbarian]]s can dual wield most one-handed weapon types, and there are various class-specific weapons as well.*** [[Demon Hunter]]s can pair a [[weapon switch hotkeybow]] or [[crossbow]] with a [[quiver]] in Diablo IIIthe offhand slot. At least not *** [[Witch Doctor]]s can equip a [[mojo]] in the initial gametheir off-hand slot. Thus no tab to select it*** [[Wizard]]s can equip various types of [[orb]]s in their off-hand slot.

* The [[Talismanweapon switch hotkey]] did not return in Diablo III. (At least not in [[D3v]] is a new type of item/function about which many mysteries still remain.

==Paperdoll Evolution==The Inventory and Paper Doll evolved frequently during Diablo III's development.  The [[Talisman]] was found beside the paper doll for years. This was an inventory space that housed charms, which chiefly provided stat boosts. It was shelved for possible later implementation pre-beta.

The Inventory Window and most of the other game interface screens have changed many times during the development cycle. And can be expected to continue evolving. Here's a view of the much less polished paper doll/[[inventory]] from the WWI Gameplay moviespace changed repeatedly. This The final form is a large 10x6 grid that is how the interface looked back same for all classes and levels, with all items either 1x1 or 1x2 in June 2008size. During development every aspect of this changed, including item size, when inventory size, inventory space determined by bags and the game made its debut[[Adventurer's Pack]], and much more.

During The elimination of the GamesCom 2010 Artisan reveal video, a new updated avatar was seen. This is probably not [[character window]] and the last iteration incorporation of all those stats into the paperdoll (fitting into the space initially occupied by the inventorytalisman) occurred fairly late in development.
