In WoW at least (and I think SC2 as well), it doesn't show what Feats you don't have, unlike achievements with associated point values. People won't notice missing it.
I'm a bit of a completionist/OCD with WoW Feats/achieves myself (over 9k points on my main), and while I will be getting this beta FoS, I know there are dozens of mounts, achievements, and feats in WoW I'll never be able to get. It bothers me slightly, but I get over it, especially having a fair stable of Feats myself.
Feat of Strength (Generally very difficult, limited time only, or very luck-based achievements that have no point value. In WoW, more so than SC2, a lot are now impossible to acquire.)

Anyone else thought what will be the 6th class in the inevitable expansion pack? We can speculate, we have some time to kill still 
Problem with that build seems like you will be regaining too much mana but no low cooldown spell to spam.
Would you guys change anything on this HC DH build for lvl ~30?

edit: planing to use a fast bow(if I get one ....) to generate as much hatred as possible. Certainly not the fastes killspeed build, but I really want to survive a long time with my first char :d.

I would expect at least 2 new classes. Maybe one of old, and a new original class.
They have to bring back the Druid. Shapeshifting...Anyone else thought what will be the 6th class in the inevitable expansion pack? We can speculate, we have some time to kill still
I thought Spirit Barrage had no cooldown? Also figured the build would have to deal with increased mana cost from Pierce the Veil.

An assassin/thief character is the big one missing right now.

No. Runes you get as you level up. On the diablo 3 site you'll see a progression tab that shows ya how they work, etc.

Anyone have a decent arcane Wizard build?
Or a good Demo Hunter build?
This was my basement growing up. Well, without the PC. Instead of a PC it was a shitty little 12 inch black and white TV with an N64 hooked up to it.
And replace the piss bottles with a drain in the center with piss stains around it (cement floor, obviously).

I'm hoping for a pet class or a rouge like class.
Assassin and Necromancer where my go to classes in D2 so I hope the new class would be similar to them.

I have a Collector's Edition retail pre-ordered. So in that case, would I just need the CD-Key?

Cleric. DnD style, chainmail armor, shield, sword and heavy undead damage.
Preferably with no healing abilities.
Yes. In fact i'm in the same position as you.
The second you plug in your CD-key on Battle.net, you BAM! log into the game and click away for eternity.

both, and hammers too
My bad, I never played a Witch Docter, I assumed spirit barage was like a primary for a Demon Hunter and it would cost no mana.

A class that shifts from corporeal/ethereal forms would be pretty badass. Not sure what it would be called, but it would be a unique play-style since certain abilities would only be cast-able in one form or the other, so it would probably play similar to the Druid.
"Voidwalker" or someshit.

So I ordered Diablo on Amazon and today I recieved a weird mail :
Sociology, our best sellers :
- fondamental laws of human stupidity
- social integration and radical decisions
- and so on
Is amazon judging me ?!

Never played Diablo in my life but this game has caught my attention.
Anyone have any videos/resources that could give me an idea of what I'm getting into? I'm scared, guys.

I would say start here:
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/game/
Look at the class videos first, maybe some youtube videos from the Diablo III beta aswell.
If youre still in doubt, the game will launch with guest passes, so you can always request one here to try the game out.

Read the OP. It contains (almost) all you need to know.
Nailed it.

anyone have what they feel is the best build for the witch doctor? its been so long since ive played diablo I have a feeling I'll make some major mistakes....
It's the ultimate "Carrot on a stick" game. Makes wow's look like amateur night. The quest for better weapons/armor.

You can't make mistakes in this game as far as "builds" go. You can always change out skill loadouts, which gives you freedom to experiment. Which is pretty awesome.
CarbonatedFalcon

There's no penalty for making mistakes. You can change your skills and runes at any time without penalty besides a short cooldown (except at 60 when dealing with Nephalem Valor).
Just experiment and try things out!
You use the mouse left handed?
I would run a no pet WD if I didn't go Wiz.
Also, will the 100 person mumble server hold everyone that wants to play together in a group :O, considering this OT moves so fast

Right finger had broken already.
It's handled like this: there is no pvp....
.... at this moment, they are still working on it to make it a fun addition to the game, not pvp for the sake of pvp.
I think the pvp is just going to be arena, but Blizz has stated that they do not want this to be conscidered as an e-sport, cause they know it'll be impossible to balance.

It doesn't exist, they going to patch it in sometime in the future, last time I heard it is going to be something like 5 vs 5 battleground. They also talked about 3 vs 3/2 vs 2 like WoW arena, not sure if they going to keep it.

haha now that you mention it i still have to screw open my school laptop and clean the ventilation this weekend so i can play atleast more then 5 min at school.
Those biased network administrators blizzard games are the only one that have access to the internet every other game is blocked.
So you want a Pally
Pallys and Clerics are quite different
Ah no biggie then, was just curious. Cause 2's was so stupid I was curious if they were going to make the same mistake.
