This Is The Most-Picked Class In ‘Diablo 4’ At Launch

Diablo 4 has launched with five classes, which trace their roots back to the last three Diablo games in certain forms or any other, even when their skills and talents have been revamped and updated for that modern era.

This Is The Most-Picked Class In ‘Diablo 4’ At Launch

While I’m sure some kind of grand infographic can give more data sooner or later (including hopefully sales for that fastest-selling Blizzard game of history?), we all know at least what's the most-picked class hanging around. And honestly, it wasn’t what I was expecting.

As such, it doesn't come with every other data showing in which the other four classes rank so as. Given that I would not have access to the predicted Sorcerer as #1, who honestly knows what’s next? My guess could be 2) Rogue, 3) Barbarian, 4) Necromancer, 5) Druid. Why?

I think Druid has become the least recognizable “archetype” and several players might not really be connected to the class when they didn’t play Diablo 2’s expansion. But it’s an excellent class regardless! Again, those are simply my guesses. I thought Rogue or Barb could be #1, but Rogue can be a bit complicated for many and Barb can be a bit boring using its melee focus and insufficient magic.

The Sorcerer/Sorceress/Wizard class, together with Barbarian, has now experienced all four Diablo games. I think they’re a high pick due to the wide range of elemental powers they are able to use, lighting, frost, and fire, mainly, with flashy spells and big damage.

Such big damage, actually, I also think they could be topping lots of “what’s the strongest class” lists, the ones may be making their decision this way so they are able to Ice Shard their method to victory within the endgame. But beware, fast nerfs will always be around the corner in Diablo, which in fact had a slate of these right before the official launch. Interestingly, Sorcerer, of classes, was barely touched whatsoever.

Personally, Sorcerer is generally my last pick. I don’t possess a specific reason, I just don’t love the archetype or playstyle, a minimum of in past games. Not saying they’re bad or otherwise fun, just a matter of personal preference for me personally. I will play one eventually, but it’s likely to be my fourth or fifth pick, to tell the truth. I started with Barbarian, focusing on a Rogue, Druid is next without a doubt. But to every their own.
