A traditional Sword and Board class, a Knight/Paladin/Crusader class is needed for Diablo 4.
It is missed in Diablo 4 in my opinion. Need some Light and Hope in the darkness of Sanctuary Diablo 4 devs.

As we know the Crusaders still exist and gathered in the Hawezar swamps at the ruins of a Zakarum chapel, in search of a holy relic of Light. Please Diablo 4 devs, consider making them playable Blizzard.

I don’t hate the five classes they picked for Diablo 4 and I wouldn’t want any of them removed (although it would be nice if the was more option in the skill tree, maybe in the expansion we get more options). Its just that Knight/Paladin/Crusader is missed… and no Even if the barbarian has knight armor or the rogue have knight armor or the necromancer has knight armor and sword and shield (and Knight armor from the ingame shop). The barbarian is still a Barbarian ingame and so is the Rogue and Necromancer is also still just a Necromancer.
A Knight/Paladin/Crusader is needed. Hell the Knights Penitent/Pale Knights are cool too. With their Massive shield/Roman type of shield and Spear/lance and polearm and Heavy Plate armor.

They are so awsome in this trailer. Even Inarius is super cool. I wish…I wish the end between Inarius and Lilith would have gone different then the story Diablo 4 team had written.

Knight would be good. Kinda same as warrior in Diablo 1. I’d like that.
They have commented that it is going to be a class that has never been seen in Diablo… paldines, curzados, etc. We have already seen in D2 or D3, I can only think of one class and more so seeing this season… an engineer type class… using something like the automatons of this season… and honestly I would not like it to be that , it would completely kill the setting of Diablo…
It could be a Shaman with a shield… although they would have to copy many skills from classes like the sorceress or druid… I don’t know… I can’t think of anything else.
Yeah I know.
Yeah so? Its an Iconic class just like Barbarian, Necromancer, Rogue, Sorcerer even Druid is, And the Knight/Paladin/Crusader should become playable before any other “New” class as it fits the Diablo universe. Not having a Knight/Paladin/Crusader class is like the game is missing something. That Holy warrior against Darkness. Ever wonder why so many players did not accept the monk class as the holy warrior in D3? So in the Reaper of souls Blizzard made the Crusader class becuase it was missing and so too it is missing in D4.
Engineer? How would that fit with Diablo Universe? besides Rogue has the traps skills. And guns? guns does not exist in the Diablo universe. If the devs do that then they do not know the Diablo games at all and would only ruin the game. Hell I don’t like that Season companion, the spider droid. Would rather have Human NPCs as Companions like in D3.
Shaman? How would that be different from a Druid? Druid can be as a Shaman just pick nature skills like stone and lighting and boom you are a shaman and Pic a mace weapon with a totem or two handed mace. Same thing for those who think Blood knight would become playable from Diablo Immortal well the D4 Necromancer have all blood skill so how would a Blood knight be diffrent from the D4 Necromancer? so if you want a Blood knight just pick Necro and choose all blood skills and Bingo you are a Blood Knight and also even Vampires use abit of Necromancy.
Some think a cultist would be the 6th class but the Cultist in Diablo are evil and serve the Prime 3, how would a Cultist help Humanity of Sanctuary.
But the leak Picture with all the classes shown, an Angel Knight or something is showed in the middle of the picture, it could be a fallen angel. Im ok with that but a Knight/Paladin/Crusader would have made more sense as they do exist as I wrote further up. Or maybe the holy relic that the Crusaders are looking for in Hawezar swamps turns out to be a fallen angel that has been locked away in a tomb.
We will get a sword and shield class at some time down the line but not unless part of an annual expansion, that is my take on it, and it wont be like any class that has prev existed, so no classic knight or templar.
In reality any background can use a sword and shield, so its not like the devs are starved for ideas for sutch a class.
They should’ve put some wow classes in this game, that’s a missed opportunity. You can easily fit priest, shaman, warlock, even have support builds for group play, 8 man raids etc.
They’re just incompetent, that’s about it
more like LA, isometric with raid fight mechanics with more than 4 people
