State of the Classes

Hi all, I'm an old player aiming to come back and start a new with Drakensang.

I would like to play as a free player and my focus would be mostly on PvE with some PvP time to time. I am still trying to realize what class to play so I'd like to hear opinions about: Ranger (my former main), Spellweaver and Steam Mechanicus in the endgame enviroment.

Thanks in advance and cya ingame

 

personally steam mech is best right now also if looking for guild and want to use team speak contact Littlehink or Hm106 in Agathon if you are on that server Mainly level 50's but our goal is always to help others leveling up thru all the maps and PW's

 

So it's verified that the SM is the highest damage class, but how much worse are the Ranger and the Spellweaver? I think I'd find them more fun to play but I wouldn't like to bind myself to a character that won't find groups later in the game nor can farm things solo.

 

You will always be able to find groups as a SM. Their high damage output with a 2h build using turrets makes them the kings of boss runs. If you are just doing bosses, an OK SM is better to have than a really good SW or RA. Beyond that, they are more than capable of soloing using the turrets and then dodging hits from the mobs while the turrets do the work.

On the other hand, RAs are currently the underdogs and many people don't want them in their groups. That is stupid because a well built RA is very capable of pulling their own weight.

SWs are always needed because of crowd control and armor break with their damage being second only to SMs. In my personaly opinion, they are a little harder to solo with than SMs, but they are still very strong.

But if you want the king of soloing, DKs win hands down. Because of their high defenses and being able to reach impressive DPS using 2H and their ability to regen HP based on the damage they do, they are often capable of doing things that would be much more difficult for the other classes. Plus, if you maintain a tank set of gear too, you can always find groups that need a tank, especially for bosses.
