Ashes of Creation Class Tier List
Onto the rankings!
S-TIER
- Cleric
- If you prefer to act more as a support and want to focus on healing, a Cleric is for you. This class is best if you’re playing in a group, as you can help support those at the frontlines who are taking the damage. But if you did want to enter battle, you’d still have enough power to defeat a few enemies.
- Fighter
- As the name implies, those in the fighter class are all about diving headfirst into battle and attacking enemies. Power and strength are always important, and you’ll get a lot of that in this class. Even better? They can channel mana to amplify their strength.
- Summoner
- One of the most versatile and flexible classes available. For example, they can heal allies, deal damage, or tank the battlefield. It’s a stronger option than the Mage, as they can shift to fill gaps in your team and in battle.
A-TIER
- Bard
- The perfect mix of support and attack. In this class, you can heal your team members when in battle, but you also have crowd control abilities, which allow you to dictate what happens in battle.
- Rogue
- You move quickly and silently as a Rogue, and you have powerful attacks to damage enemies. So, why is it in A-tier? Well, this class isn’t beginner-friendly. It has tricky moves to familiarise yourself with, so practice and patience is a virtue with this.
- Mage
- Mages are versatile, allowing you to deal damage, use magic, and attack from different distances. It offers a bit of everything, so if you didn’t want to commit to a class that solely focuses on one aspect of gameplay (for example, the Fighter is best for attacking), then the Mage is a perfect choice.
B-TIER
- Ranger
- As the name implies, you use ranged attacks, meaning you shoot far away and at a distance. This is great if you don’t want to get close to enemies, as you’re safer from a distance but can still damage enemies. That being said, this class is only good when attacking weaker enemies.
C-TIER
- Tank
- I know this might be an unpopular opinion to place a Tank in the C-tier, but let me explain! Realistically, this class is only good if you’re playing in a group. A Tank’s job is to draw attackers in and absorb the damage that would injure their allies. So, it’s great if you have allies and teammates, but not so great if you’re alone.
D-TIER
