The class resource orb is divided in two halves accordingly – the left half (red) represents Hatred and the right half (blue) represents Discipline. Unlike the other classes, the Demon Hunter uses two resources – the fast-regenerating Hatred (used for offensive skills) and the slow-regenerating Discipline (used for tactical skills and evasion). Some, very few, runes were originally dealing Poison damage as well, but were changed to Cold after patch 2.1.2. Blizzard made the Demon Hunter darker than the other classes as they wanted a character that would have a different feel from the others.ĭemon Hunters mostly use Physical damage, with a portion of Fire skills, but can tune their skills to deal Lightning or Cold damage. Due to these capabilities, this class is apparently a combination of both the Amazon and Assassin classes from Diablo II.

They can dual-wield crossbows, launch explosives, place traps, and cast shadow magic (which complements their dark nature).

The Demon Hunter was introduced as a character built around ranged combat. The Demon Hunter was revealed at Blizzcon in 2010. The Demon Hunter is based around ranged combat.
