In Diablo 4 there are classes that some players consider to be too weak. However, some fans believe all classes should be like this.
Which class is it about? It is about the weakest classes of Diablo 4, the Druids and the Barbarians.
In Diablo 4 there are five different classes. However, they are not all equally strong. While the Necromancer is seen as overpowered by some, the Sorceress and the Ranger are in good shape. The Barbarian and the Druid, however, are quite the opposite.
How strong are the two classes? Many players consider the Druid to be too weak and the Barbarian could also be stronger. This was also noticed by MeinMMO editor Maik Schneider, who played the Barbarian during the first beta weekend. His assessment of the fighter is:
Although in the beta you could accomplish all activities with the Barbarian with some attention, other classes like the Necromancer or the Sorceress were significantly stronger and did not have to get as close to the enemies.

After a lot of experimenting, Maik finally discovered a bleeding build with the Barbarian that deals good damage. MeinMMO editor Benedict Grothaus experienced something similar with the Druid, who found unprecedented strength in a Werewolf build.

“All classes should be this weak”
What is the fans’ statement? A user named “slirpo” writes on Reddit that all classes in Diablo 4 should be as weak as the Druid and the Barbarian.
The player enjoys the two classes because they are not as strong as the others, making it a challenge to defeat bosses or complete dungeons.
Furthermore, he feels a much stronger influence of legendary equipment. It feels like the character grows when good gear is found.
The post received over 1,000 upvotes after nearly a day and also finds support in the comments. One user responded there, for example: “That was my experience too. The Druid was so much fun (via Reddit)!”
Another player writes on Reddit: “Barbarians and Druids have been the most fun of all 5 classes over the last two weekends. I really hope they don’t get buffed toward a Necromancer or Sorceress. They are way too powerful at the beginning. There was no challenge at all and therefore less fun to play.”
