Nothing too earth-shattering, but still pretty cool nonetheless.

Not really new, those parts are all on the gameplay video.

Oh whoops, my bad! Sorry guys. I just remember the witch-doctor part when he is out in the jungle area, not in the dark area.

To keep it simple: No.

Hrm, come to think of it, it is new. This footage is not in the 19 minute gameplay demo that I downloaded.

Interesting "Mana"/Life leech skill the WD seems to have.

Guys,

This is a splice of the skill mini movies from the official Witch Doctor page

Not earthshattering, but great none-the-less. Witchy is definitely pwning hard. Nice.

On that fireblast skill, the voice over said in the demo video that it was "slow but powerful" did he mean there is a cool down timer on the skill or that his character might not have had enough fcr? what do you guys think?

I'm pretty sure its timed but I wouldn't mind opinions, I love that skill

He meant a slow moving projectile. Takes a while to land, and quick monsters can easily dodge it from a decent range.

Now, I was never a hater, but i was never a fan of the Witch Doctor either. I think it was more of a "well, I dont think id make my first char the necro either...so i dont mind." After this video, I dont know, I think he looks pretty cool. I probably wont make him my first char (sorc lover for life!) but this gameplay i think makes him seem a lot cooler then he does in gameplay demo.

Also, what do you guys think that new skill is? It looks like a Soul steal? It looks cool! :)

Not really a new gameplay video, they've just put together all the skill videos from the official site's Witch Doctor class page.

I like the locust swarm skill thingy. Wish I could have it now and go to Moo Moo Farm. :)

Yea i saw this, somebody posted it in the WD forum. I liked this video, somehow he seemed much stronger. And is it my opinion or does the fire bomb look much more powerful in this one?

it was new gameplay though with the witch doctor doing some more melee attacks vs. straight up spells. It does seem like a powerful char, but i wonder if its amped up for the video demo or not

I'm pretty sure all of the videos released so far were done against extremely low level monsters for the sake of showing off everything. They all die in one hit.

Agreed. I'm sure the skills are going to scale in the actual game better than are shown.

Locust swarm is essentially what Rabies was for the Druid. Good for smaller, low hit point enemies, but not very efficient against bosses or tougher enemies.

I would bet though, that the more points you put into things like Firebomb, the bigger and more impressive the effect becomes.

First character is still completely tied to the loot system for me. If we see a return of the MF culture with non-soulbound items and low drop rates then then the only real choice for first characters is, and pretty much always will be, something with teleport as an innate skill that doesn't require much gear to kill.

BC,

I've merged your thread with this one by Ztryderas it's the same subject and as the movie isn't new (it's these 4 stuck together (http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/characters/witchdoctor.xml)) it makes sense to keep it here.
