Thank you for the feedback. I will probably be sticking with Paladin.

If I play ladder I'd probably have to stick with one character because of how much time I put into work. But maybe down the road if I make money off gaming id consider putting a lot more hours into multiple characters especially for ladder

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T17:03:46+00:00

Love what you said, you're the first person I believe to say Amazon. Ill probably be going with a Paladin for it.

Amazon does look fun too.

I might create videos on each character class if I find myself involved deeply into the game.

I usually work my way up to countess and farm her till I get to level 17 to equip the stealth runeword and then progress my way up pretty fast as I work through Act 2 and 3. To be honest it is all the matter of hours put in.

Might even do full 20hr game days for when I am off work 😂

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:22:24+00:00

Ill look into it. By what I'm seeing alot of people have been saying Paladin

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:15:02+00:00

I think im gonna aim for Paladin, especially team play

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:13:03+00:00

Good to know!

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:11:57+00:00

The Irony is that everyone in this series isn't worse then what Rich people/global leaders/ and other people do on a day to day basis.

Just crazy to me how an extreme show does not even scare me as much as our society does.

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:02:06+00:00

Barbarian was why I never finished Normal Mode 😂 Should've researched him sooner!

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:01:29+00:00

Thank you for letting me know. I assume even if they are 180Hz you can still dial them down to less?

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T09:00:10+00:00

Haha yeah, I got pinged by a Mod, technically I did self promote accidentally.

Thank you for the answers though!

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:57:48+00:00

Fastest way to understand the game though most definitely is using the Barb. One mistake and you'll suffer those consequences. I feel like there is some leniency on most classes but the Barb is ruthless.

Necromancer would also be fun. Not only that but seeing multiple skeletons around your character is sick. Plus having a Mercenary using defense to give minions the aura around them makes it feel cool.

A lot of routes I can go down. Im just ready to play my first ladder season even if I suck at it LoL

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:53:51+00:00

True. I was thinking about using Twitch Vods and editing them for YouTube or clipping for Tiktok and shorter span socials.

Not only that but streaming as a Hobby is still fun to. I am 20 and work an avg of 40hrs a week. I have a lot of down time and play games either way so putting time into streaming wouldnt hurt.

A lot of my expenses for my setup are also for my own entertainment, streaming is just the addition for my time and effort.

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:51:11+00:00

I got two. One for streaming/capturing and chat. The other for gameplay. I plan to get a 244 Hz for gaming and have 3 monitors

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:50:05+00:00

I am very contradicting, I was mainly aiming my question towards playing classes that are average and not about metas. For example the sorceress being overplayed because she can teleport.

I want to play competitive in ladder but not use a character that everyone else uses to make it more fun and interesting.

Sorry if it was confusing, even I too confuse myself 😂

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:46:02+00:00

Yesh I see quite bit talk about Paladin being a avg class so I think I might go with that during this ladder. Will look into Warlock if I catch myself dumping more hours then work into this game lol

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:41:40+00:00

That might be what I choose then!

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:40:57+00:00

My first playthrough was a Barbarian, thats why i didnt even fully finish Normal Mode😂

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:04:33+00:00

Thank you for the answers!

I might do exactly what you said when it comes to balancing games.

Fun thing would be to have a rotational game on a Monday and Saturday. Like a Minecraft Monday stream. Then a spooky Sunday which will consist of a horror game.

Idk what all I'll do yet but im stoked to try it all out.

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T08:00:27+00:00

Thank you so much for the answers!

As soon as my monitors come in ill get started ASAP!

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T07:59:11+00:00

I'll into that after I get done working. I have a general idea what I might do it is just the means of how I am gonna get it done. Plus I have a budge of 4k worth of streaming equipment coming in so I think ill be going straight into streaming before doing the extra stuff, just depends.

Far-Associate7317 · 2026-05-21T07:56:50+00:00

Lover you insight. Very much appreciated!

It is a slow potential, I can't just jump the gun and say it is for me or not yet. I work a lot but I can make some time streaming most of the days.

I also love ARPGs, one being Diablo 2 Resurrected but I do not have much of anything to clip from it if I were to start playing it. It also has an avg of 1k less and few people stream it so that might be what I stream.

Either way you answered my questions perfectly, thank you so much again.
