i think blizz shud make a melee demon hunter viable.. demon currently has only 2-3 skills that can be used while in melee form..
i think an assassin type build n skills shud be available
my preferred weapon type wud be daggers
i mostly like melee's
n this wud ensure that i play demon hunter with smthin too luk forward too

A nice idea but Demon Hunter won't be a melee class, ever.

However, a new class may be added in the expansion! Somehow similar to Assassin from Diablo 2.

Post your ideas about next expansions in my thread right here.

This class was not put in for a reason, it was strait abuse in d2 no to mention it's EZ mode. the one hit run around poison or aoe kill tactic seems more repetitive and less fun, just don;t see why they re-put a character that already been exploited and abused to the max

It is possible to build a Demon Hunter melee but you will probably have a hard time to play the game solo.If you play co-op on the other hand you would be able to survive but i don't think that you would add a health amount of damage in the party.But the point of Diablo is to build your character the way you want .

i only say that  MELEE  dh SHUD BE VIABLE ..
no players shud be denied playing a class the WAY THEY WANT TO
all classes now other than  dh can melee.. even the wd with his chants can ridiculously increase his atack speed to effectively melee enimies..
along with his int steal skill he can output loads of melee dmg..
i dont say make the demon hunter melee or make it an assassin.
ALL I SAY IS THAT A DEMON HUNTER CUD BE USED IN MELEE

[Diablo3comeout]

I don't agree because that would make game boring and delay it again, again, and again.

dude wat r expansions for?

[robbie984]

No. Just no.

Even now you can get lvl13 crafted crossbow I think. It is a rare.

And just no.

[powdereddoughnut]

I was considering the same...making a melee DH....but with the recent rune changes....Certain runes I wanted to use with it...won't be available till harder difficulties....So I probably won't be able to use it

[Zarthon]

never, not even to try it should they make melee dh

[yianni_k78]

I dont see how someone can say demon hunter will NEVER be melee.  I mean we've seen melee mages, so why shouldnt there be melee DHs?  Weapons could be daggers, (barbed) whips, those knives with blades on both sides of the grip, etc.  I kinda like the idea.

[thebovo]

can't even think about a dhunter melee O.O

I agree...they have some decent damaging close range spells....Just need a few more defensive ones...would be fun to make one with a shield.

[Grabaduro]

u dunno if i make a dh i need strafe

[cam2820]

demon hunter would be an okay class to play up close but if your talking about making it able to be like an assassin at that point they may as well just make a assassin class

[Grabaduro]

still in a way the monk is a little like the assasin (martial arts)

[Tyrael chaos]

well, the DH has some mele attacks but it's made to attack with bows not with swords, but it's OK to have a sword in your bag, you'll need it

[tapeworm]

poison dagger necro from d2 comes to mind. fun but not really viable. I can see why one would want a certain class from from a thematic perspective, but if one is looking for a specific playstyle at least I would choose a class that supports it

[Tyrael chaos]

In porcent is 70% bows 30% mele
