No. Demon Hunters are not a casting nor summoning class. They infuse THEMSELVES with fel power, not use it to summon demons.
Nah DH already share too much with Warlocks, no point in taking more of their abilities and making them our own. And as Kay said I never saw DHs "creating" portals they just activate the set stones that only require souls.
Since you clearly have no idea how this works, allow me to explain. the portals demon hunters use are essentially just doors. One door one one end, another at the other. That's how you get to one place from another. You can use that to summon allies. You're not waving your fingers around and making your friends appear, you're creating a portal to them so they can come to you. I don't know what you don't understand about this.
They're saying that the portals that the DHs create were pre-existing structures. The DH's didn't create the summoning gateways, they simply turned them on. The doors were already there. I don't know what you don't understand about this.
This is literally exactly what they are doing in the one instance where we have seen DHs using portals.The portals they use are created. They aren't activating existing portals that they did not make. What are you even talking about?
/sigh /facepalm The Demon Hunters JUST arrived on Mardum, but they clearly had time to make giant portals!!!
To use your own comparison against you: opening the door with a key is like activating a portal, but actually making the door in the first place is summoning the portal.
I am glad someone understands basic logic.
The summoning gateways were already there as well as the stones that require souls to power the portal. Is my warrior a magic user because I sometimes assist in magic shit for quests/events? Hell, the karazhan library quest thing had me do some magic fuckery with Khadgar to bring down a magic barrier. My hands were glowing! Am I a mage?
List to me all the gateways/portals we have seen Demon Hunters using that they built themselves.
The closest I can think of is the one Illidan uses in the Black Temple and only because we don't know for sure who built it. Given that Illidan wrested the Black Temple from a pit lord, its fair to assume that that portal to a Legion world was pre-existing as well.
Regardless it would be silly to compare Illidan to "normal" DHs like us.
You realize all the portal structures were created by the demons to get from world to world right? Illidan sent his Illidari to retrieve a KEY, the Sargerite Keystone. Why would Illidan need a KEY to reach other Legion worlds if he could just summon a portal to take him and his Illidari there in the first place?
