    Thats, like, your opinion man.
    I'm not saying I would play it, but I would try it out, that's for sure. Originally it was the 3rd spec already. You can see that through all the soul iterations with tanks and demonic. And it's pretty clear it was going to be a 2h spec, with a probability of a scythe as the main focus.

    Now.if they give us a second design spec, it will be based off of what we currently have. What's the easiest choice? Well it's to halve the spec and make one the single target focus with some are and the other are focus with some single target.

    I think a ranged void dps spec for dh's makes sense. Also lore wise demonhunters are all about sacrificing everything to save their world, which meant consuming fel energy to become demons to fight demons, and would mean consuming void energy to fight the voidlords.

    What makes you think there is going to be a 3rd spec? I am certain they were pretty clear about why there were two specs and only two specs. What has changed that would make them change their mind about adding a 3rd spec?

    They have changed their minds about plenty of things plenty of times, sometimes within a month, sometimes within a year. It's very safe to assume they have plans for a 3rd DH spec for next xpac. Especially if it is a void themed spec, it would of made no sense for them to introduce it in legion, and makes complete sense from both a design time constraint and lore perspective to add it in the next xpac.

    DH has literally zero to do with the void.

    Mantra of the demon hunter: There is nothing we won't sacrifice to save our world.

    That basically sums it up, if it means infusing themselves with the void as they did with the fel to save Azeroth, then a demon hunter will do it. They don't think twice about becoming monsters to fight monsters.

    Sure, this is the official line, but how many times have they said one thing and turned around and said the opposite later on? It's pretty clear that they couldn't figure out the two specs they made, so having a 3rd was cut, but of course they aren't going to admit that they released an unfinished class, so the story becomes "we only wanted 2 specs".

    It's pretty clear you are intent on claiming your opinion is 'fact' when the facts that exist contradict your position.

    2 specs look incomplete, like a beta version or even alpha

    Pretty much this. They were shuffling around between healing and a 2nd design spec that would have taken away from havoc. So they cut the design spec in favor of havoc. As to the healing, wish they left it in but their reasoning was "lol demon hunters healing"

    But he's correct. A lack of time and design creativity(or indecision on healer or dps) could easily have lead to the decision to cut the third spec. Doing so gave them years of time to work on it. the "facts" you claim are just the official stance, which is definitely mutable.


    And as for a void spec not making sense - the entire theme for demon hunters, the reason they are what they are, is based on the premise: Fight Fire with Fire. The Shadow Council, or void lords, or whatever they end up called, those whom are the leaders of the Old Gods, are the real threat, have always been the real threat.

    If the next expansion turns out to be a south seas expansion where we subdue azshara and n'zoth, it will lead into the void theme heavily, and even fel and sargeras as well, as she is supposed to be his consort. Even the other hints, threats from the ethereals, would lend itself to a void theme.

    The void and fel are tied very tightly together, every time we see one, the other is nearby, even if not dominant.

    Anyways, they have a lot of room to make a third dps spec, whether it's a healer(hope not) or a dps

    Sincerely i would have put my bets into a Holy spec DH based on Illidan being raped by X'era. However given what happened in the cinematic i don't see it happening.

    That being said, i would like having a third spec just because i feel a little upset when i have all itens for my 2 specs and feels like i have to level an alt if i want a third one.
    would love a Heal spec, maybe something that worked like discipline priests but with Shadow-based stuff.

    Signature was infraaaaaaaaaacted. Need a new one!

    i highly doubt that it would be void based. but a third spec with a 2h caster could be fun. have some of the abilities that the Inquisitor Tormentorum from Vault of the wardens. or yea any other legion spellcaster. since the DH are all about using the legions power againts it them. atleast thats what i would think could be a viable and fun 3 spec for DH.

    Its already been explained several times. DHs fight fire with fire. They want to hunt demons, they become demons. You kill the demons you hunt, where do you go from there? Since the next step is Void, then it makes sense that the DH would use the void to gain any edge they can. Does it make sense for Demon Hunters to become Void Hunters in the same way they decided to take in demons into their bodies. But the logic is there for the taking. Absorb Void to become the Void Wardens now that their job hunting demons is basically done.

    If third spec there is, they might take something from the wardens and have circular glaives. and it would be a spec with bleeds, images etc

    just saying.

    That's the first time I've heard of Dragonsworn and Wardens don't get nearly as many requests as those 3, so I think we're good.

    Yes, but they ALREADY did all that, lol. With demons, not with void. It would be an entirely different class with different lore.

    You could have DH shamans, and DH mages, and DH monks... it gets ridiculous.

    Now if a DH were to do the soul sacrifice thing with a demon that had already sacrificed its soul the the void.... well then that would be interesting but I have no clue if that is possible.
