I was originally thinking barb, but EVERYONE Is playing barb and gear is gonna be at a premium. My second choice would be a monk as I been enjoying playing one during beta. Its a tough decision for me. DH/WIzard would be tied after those 2 and I had no enjoyment with the WD
This.
Barbarian gear will be too in-demand for a while. Same with wizard probably.
Most likely going to start as a Monk or WD in light of that. The gear will be relatively easy to get compared to barbarian stuff.
Also, barbarians (and melee characters in general for Blizzard) have always required the nicest gear to perform very well. Furthermore, if the character is overpowered off the bat (possible for Barb), there will be heavy handed nerfs coming down the pipeline. I mean.. I hope the nerf/buff thing isn't in store for d3 like it was for WoW.. but I'm not holding my breath just yet.
