Best Class

Best Farever Class for Your First Run

Short answer for new players: Cleric/Priest is the safest first pick. Warrior is the easiest melee pick. Rogue and Mage are stronger when you already trust your dodges, camera, and weapon skill timing.

Class rankings Pick by role Starter builds

Fast Answer

Start Cleric/Priest if you want fewer resets.

Judgment gives you recovery while you learn boss tells, dungeon routes, and open-world pulls. Once you know the fights, swap to Warrior for simple melee uptime, Rogue for speed, or Mage for ranged damage windows.

Rankings Role picks Mistakes to avoid

Class	Best For	Why It Works	Watch Out
Cleric / Priest	First character, solo learning, co-op safety	Self-recovery lets you keep a run alive while you learn dodge timings.	Do not play greedy just because you can recover.
Warrior	Beginner melee, dungeon basics, boss practice	Simple combat plan: hold space, block, dodge, punish, repeat.	Bad stamina habits get exposed in boss phases.
Rogue	Fast clears, confident solo play, flank uptime	High mobility rewards players who already read enemy animations.	Missed dodges are expensive, especially in packed rooms.
Mage	Ranged play, spell burst, safer camera angles	Lets you keep damage moving while staying out of messy melee range. v0.1.5 fixed Spark Beam mastery Lightning Infusion and improved out-of-combat Spark regeneration.	Positioning and cooldown timing matter more than raw button mashing.

Best Solo Class

Cleric/Priest. v0.1.3 fixed several Priest prayer and Sunlight-related issues, and the sustain still gives you more room to learn boss tells.

Best Co-op Pick

Cleric/Priest or Warrior. One keeps the group stable, the other keeps enemy attention predictable during messy pulls.

Best Skill Ceiling

Rogue or Mage. Both feel better once you know when bosses are locked into recovery animations and when to back off.

Do not reroll too early.

Most early pain comes from unspent weapon skill upgrades, missing pouches, bad dodges, or weak route knowledge rather than a bad class.

Build around the fight.

Bring a ranged tool, a panic button, or a heal through Arsenal when your main weapon does not cover the job.
