Diablo 3 Easiest Class to Level

If you’re looking to level to 60 as fast as possible the class you’re looking to play is the Demon Hunter.  This class will also be one of the best farming classes for sure.

Demon Hunters are capable of launching long range assaults and causing a lot of damage to enemies very quickly.  They are considered one of the easiest classes to play.

Does this mean that you’ll breeze your way through Inferno with a Demon Hunter?  Of course not.  In fact, while Demon Hunters are one of the easiest classes to level they oftentimes have problems soloing bosses.  So when you get to Bosses in the game just join a co-op game and beat it that way.

Demon Hunters will probably hold the 1-60 leveling record for Diablo 3.

They specialize in ranged weapons using bows.  Think of Legolas from Lord of the Rings or Hunters from World of Warcraft, that is essentially what a Demon Hunter is.  They are equipped with Traps to help them defeat enemies and keep them at range.  They have Shadow Magic which allows them to sidestep or dodge a lot of attacks.  They also have an array of Battle Tactics to keep enemies at range.

So here are a few tips when you play your Demon Hunter.

* Always get the highest Damage Bow you can get off the Auction House

Here’s a nice chart of the Max DPS you’ll find on a bow for your level.

* Use Elective Mode

Elective Mode will allow you to get the right skills in place allowing you to use whatever skill you want in whatever area, contrary to non-elective mode where you’re limited in skills.

* Don’t Forget about Vitality

When you get into Nightmare and beyond it doesn’t necessarily matter how much damage you can do, eventually you’re going to get hit.  It is recommended that you keep Vitality to at least 50% of your Dexterity.

And before I go here is a setup you could use for solo leveling.  It requires level 40 to put everything in place but you get the idea, fill the skills in as you get them.
