demon hunter class design
The Demon Hunter was is the fifth playable class in Diablo III and was announced at Blizzcon 2010 in October.
==Class Design==
Blizzcon 2010's Gameplay Panel called "A Hero Emerges" was dominated by the Demon Hunter's Class Design. The Demon Hunter fills out the rpg-archetype of a conventional ranged class, using ranged weaponry mostly and primarily. She is designed as a sort of "Bounty Hunter", preparing for battle and therefore using gadgets and traps as well. Having lost almost everything as a child to a demonic invasion, she became obsessive in hunting down and killing everything that leaves the Burning Hells to walk on Sanctuary, permanently subject to an unending thirst for revenge. This makes her ruthless also in the use of Shadow Magic (thus the glowing eyes). She is willing to do practically anything that makes her an even more deadly slayer of abovementioned targets. Her obsession to kill makes this fast, swift combination of an archer and assassin a bit "anti-hero-ish", mysterious and dark.
Her skills reflect this design, all being a combination of several of her core elements "tactical", "traps and gadgets", "swift and acrobatic", "ranged", "shadowy and dark".
