Best class for use with controller?

Topic....the witch was...kinda eh. Thoughts?

Merc is good because of the auto-aim, but they messed up the right stick deadzone in the last patch which makes playing anything on the controller on PC quite crappy

Probably a melee of some kind. Warrior or non-culling monk.

What was the trouble? I'm playing a Witch (not minions), working just fine. All the fine-aim skills are on shoulder buttons so I can still use right stick without resorting to The Claw. Anything else (like curses) I can still kite one way and tap the opposite direction for a quick cast off the button pad.

I tried a Merc, pretty similar. Monk is working fine as well but since you're not kiting it's a lot easier.

I didn't notice a dead zone issue but if I do I'll pop up Steam configurator and manually lower it.

I'd say anything ranged is what the twin-stick style is made for.

playing monk with controller, its pretty good. so problems at all
easy to get in and out. hard to aim ranged attacks sometimes tho

Eh...Witch just seemed too squishy. I'm only in the second area after the start....she get surrounded by wolves and that's it she's out....can't dodge roll through them, and the minions are paper thin. I'll give Monk a go then thanks.

In the nicest possible way - this isn't a controller issue, it's a skill issue. Any class will die if you let yourself get surrounded. Witch will probably have the easiest time preventing these scenarios because her minions will take a lot of the heat off of you.

I appreciate that Mosley....yea maybe that's the deal...the wolves seem to move a lot faster then my toon for sure.
