In Diablo I, each class had much more in common than in subsequent games. Each only had one unique skill, but provided many differences in graphics, attribute distribution, and voice-overs.
•Warrior - The staple melee fighter had the maximum strength out of the three and could repair his own items.
•Rogue - The fast and deadly ranged fighter, she could lay siege to her enemies from a distance, and also disarm traps in the labyrinth.
•Sorcerer - The magic user, the perfect candidate to learn all the spells in the game, with maximum magic and the ability to recharge his staves.
In Diablo II, each class was made unique complete with unique skillsets for each class as well as many new gameplay options.
•Amazon - Skilled with the spear, and bow, she is a very versatile fighter.
•Necromancer - Summoning undead minions and cursing his enemies are his specialties.
•Barbarian - He is unequaled in close-quarters combat, and mastery of weapons.
•Sorceress - She has mastered the Elemental Magics -- Fire, Lightning, and Ice.
•Paladin - He is a natural party leader, Holy man, and Blessed Warrior.
In Diablo Immortal, classes are referred to as "Adventurers." Adventurers can join the Immortals and Shadows factions. The classes' appearances can be customized to an extent; each class can choose their gender, and has access to the following options:
•Face (four options)
•Skin tone
•Hairstyle
•Hair color
•Forehead
When Diablo III was initially released, it had five unique classes—like its predecessor. All five classes can be played as male or female characters.
•Barbarian - Brute force makes a successful return, the Barbarian devastates foes with mighty power.
•Demon Hunter - A stealthy warrior, specializes in crossbows and launching explosives with a focus mainly on ranged combat.
•Monk - A religious warrior of the light, they are masters of the martial arts and speed.
•Witch Doctor - Deemed the successor of the Necromancer. The Witch Doctor uses death, disease, curses and undead minions to swarm his would be opponents and drain their health and inflict impeding statuses on them.
•Wizard - Manipulating the primal forces of the storm, arcane and even time itself, the Wizard is not afraid to destroy all in the path to victory. Successor of the Sorceress and Sorcerer.
Like the previous installments, Diablo IV launched with five classes:
•Barbarian - Brutal and resourceful, these warriors are always prepared with an arsenal fit for any situation.
•Necromancer - Custodians of balance, they will do anything to keep life and death in order.
•Sorcerer - Masters of the Elements.
•Rogue - Both agile and resourceful, Rogues use whatever tools available to get the job done.
•Druid - Whether through the use of earth magic or by transforming into a Werebear, druids harness the power of nature to protect life.
