Diablo 4 is in the starting blocks. From March 17, 2023, pre-orderers and GameStar Plus members can start the first beta round and try out the long-awaited action role-playing game from 6 p.m. Europe time. For everyone else, it starts the following weekend, from March 24th to March 27th, as part of the open beta.
Until then, there is still enough time to ask yourself the mother of all video game questions: What do I want to play?
To answer them, we have put together a little quiz for you. The total of ten questions will help you to make a class decision, so that you can start the beta well prepared without spending a lot of time thinking about it.
Lawsuit against Activision Blizzard
Activision Blizzard is currently facing a lawsuit alleging sexism and unequal treatment of female employees. If the grievances play a role in your purchase decision, we have summarized all the information on the sexism lawsuit in a detailed article for you. You can read our attitude and consequences to the processes in a leading article on the Blizzard scandal by GameStar editor-in-chief Heiko Klinge.
All classes in a nutshell
Depending on what our quiz spits out for you above, we want to go into the individual classes briefly so that you can get an idea of what to expect from your result.
- The Barbarian: Close combat is capitalized here. With a wide array of weapons, powerful attacks, and battle cries, the barbarian rules the front line, smashing anything that doesn’t get out of range in three. His class mechanics let you switch between different weapons at lightning speed.
- Of Druid: Who now what of
Baumkuschler
want to say has properly cut itself. The druid unleashes a storm of natural magic and, if necessary, as a werewolf or werebear, can also deal properly in close combat. Alternatively, he also uses his spirit animals. - The Necromancer: You don’t get your hands dirty with this class. You simply let hordes of undead roll over your opponents and destroy everything that is still there with your blood or dark magic.
- The hunter: After melee and magic classes, the huntress traditionally relies on ranged attacks such as arrows or crossbow bolts. If the opponents get too close to her, she also knows how to use traps or daggers and swords.
- The Sorceress: While the druid relies on natural magic, the sorceress is more traditional with her elemental powers. She destroys hordes of enemies with well-placed fireballs or chain lightning.
