Today, I will show you the best Lost Ark's updated Tier List in 2023.
*Let's move over to the first class which is Bard. Since she gets to be in the S Tier, so Bard is the support class you can use shields attack buffs and heals to her allies which makes her very useful in raids and dungeons. Bard is immobile and not an easy class as you must know the correct timing and placement of your supporting skills. But overall the Bard is the healer type of class. Again, I want to clarify that this is amazing support class that focuses on support and not damage.
*Then moving over to the second class which I will put at the S Tier and it is Paladin. Paladin is the support class. It has yellow and blue skills. Yellow skills will activate your support abilities and blue skills are meant for damage. As you are support class you are wanted in any type of endgame content. Then, as well the Paladin has the best damage boosting support in the game. But this class is not the easiest to pick up, since you have to be very quick with the supporting skills and you have to be capable of placing him at the correct area.
*The next class is Scrapper. And I want to put her at the S Tier. Scrapper has two ways to play. The first build has low high damage skills and it's called the Shock Training build or then the second one is more mobile with consistent DPS type but a bit lower damage and it's called Taijutsu. Both play styles deal around the same damage in a long run. So, overall this is a easy class to pick up.
*The fourth class I want to introduce is Sorceress and she gets to be in the S Tier. Sorceress is a typical Mage class that focuses on casting spells in PVE. She has two builds where you can have good sustained DPS and mobility or you have a huge amount of burst but very little mobility. This class has very short kills. The main issue is that if you get focused, you don't have that many tools to deal with the enemy. And the hardest part about Sorceress is decision making for both PVP and PVE due to the lack of mobility you have to position yourself carefully. But if you get used to it, then you will be able to do a super high DPS.
*The last S Tier class is Striker. Striker is a fast-paced brawler class. He deals quick hits and does pretty high DPS. This class is very similar to the Wardancer, but he is just a bit slower. Overall, this is a great class with a nice attack speed buff for the whole team and he has a very fun play style that will deal consistent damage in PvP and PVE.
*The next one is Gunlancer and I want include him right in the A Tier. Gunlancer is the tankiest class that the game has to offer. This class makes the PB content far easier. You can face the boss head-on, making it easy for your teammates to hit the enemy from behind. Do keep in mind that this class also does good damage. It's very safe and easy class to pick up and play. So, overall if you are a solo PV player or if you're looking for the closest thing to a tank build in Lost Ark, then this is the class for you.
*So, then for the next class we have the Wardancer and she gets to be placed right in the A Tier. Wardancer is a fast-paced fighter class in PVE. She deals quick hits and does pretty nice DPS for your playstyle. You have to charge orbs to deal your highest damage numbers. Most people use no orb Engraving for easier play style, but it's up to you. Overall, this class is hard to master but easy to pick up.
*For the next one, we have Artillerist and he gets to be placed right next to Wardancer. Artillerist is a slow Gunner class. He has insane damage and can even summon a bunch of turrets that will boost your DPS. Even more, this class is tanky yet very sluggish, so many players won't find him as fun or easy to get into. I don't recommend to play this class for a new player.
*So, then for the next class we have Shadowhunter and I will place her right in the A tier. Shadowhunter is a demon based class in PVE. She plays more like a fighter rather than Assassin. She has really good range on skills and damage. There are two ways to play this class. The first build focuses on Demon Form, where you get bunch of vulnerabilities to use but then you get a bit less damage. The second build disables the Demon Form and you purely use your Human Form skills for the highest damage possible. So, overall this is a fairly easy class to pick up and learn.
*Gunslinger is one of the last classes that gets to be in the A Tier. Gunslinger is one of the hardest classes to learn for PVP and PVE. Gunslinger mainly uses his rifle to do damage. He's easier to play than Deadeye and can rage full damage potential very fast. He has a lot of utility and mobility that makes this class very strong. And if you play it right, then you will do a really good amount of damage.
*For the next class, we have Deathblade that gets to be placed right next to Gunslinger. Deathblade is a rogue slash Assassin type of class. She has great damage, good debuffs and overall performs very good. In general, Deathblade is very mobile class fairly easy to pick up and play. And most importantly with the right build, you will be able to do super high damage.
*And then for the last and final A Tier class and we have the Summoner. This is a class that deals with summons. She still uses some skills that do a lot of damage as well. She is a very nice class to learn in raids because you are always dealing damage in PvP. This class is annoying to deal against and a strong backup for any theme composition. She is very immobile and easy class to pick up and do very well for any beginner or veteran player.
*Let's move over to the next class which is the Reaper and I want to include her right in the B tier. Reaper is a true Assassin class. If you enjoy a rogue type of class, then this is the one for you. She has a lot of stealth teleports and poison based attacks. Reaper as well has two different play styles. One is the burst mode with the Moon Engraving or then the second one is the sustained DPS that uses the Thirst Engraving. This class has very good DPS in PvP. She is a super mobile class and probably one of the fastest classes in the game.
*For the next class we have the Destroyer that gets to be placed right next to the reaper. The show here is a very slow but very hard hitting class. He has a lot of shielding from his skills and he can do crazy amount of damage. In general Destroyer is very good fun and not hard class to pick up and learn. Usually, you won't be playing as the disrupter engaging role because you have a lot of knock down super armor skills which makes you really good at sticking to your enemies and much more.
*For the next one, we have Berserker and he gets to be placed right in the B tier. Berserker is a bit slow class that deals massive amounts of damage. Generally, this class is regarded as one of the top performing classes for solo and group content. His identity skill is a burst mode that gives him boost in power and a special skill to use. So, overall this class is very easy to pick up and learn in PVE. If you're using the right builds, then you will be able to do crazy amount of AOE damage.
*The nest class that gets to be in the B tier is Soulfist. Soulfist is very unusual. She has three Paces that you can put it in each base makes her stronger and stronger. If you run out of Mana, then you have to regenerate to fall before you can cast again. Overall, this class has the strongest Awakening skill in the game and it is really good class just by the pure damage numbers themselves.
*And then for the last and final B Tier class, we have the Sharpshooter. Sharpshooter is a bow user type of class. If you just take a look at the raw damage numbers. This class does more damage than few other classes in the A Tier. But it's only good for pure damage. Besides anything else, you can't really offer anything to your team. So, that's why he's in the B Tier even after the new changes.
*So, then for the next class, we have the Arcana, more commonly known as Arcanist and she gets to be placed right in the C Tier. Arcanist is the Mage class that uses dark magic cards. She has RNG mechanics in her identity skill which can make your damage fluctuate in certain fights. This is definitely not an easy class to pick up and play. But, if you know how to use it to your best advantage, then you will be able to do a crazy amount of damage. The Arcanist main playstyle is to build up stacks and then do big damage with Red skills.
*The next class I want to introduce is the Scouter AKA, which is also called Machinist. I put him in the C Tier. When you play Machinist, you technically play two characters at the same time. You can use Drones kills while casting in their skills. But you can't cast kills that are Drone and Gunner combined. There are two ways to play this class. One is based on transformation Legacy Engraving and the other one being focused on the Drone. This is a very cool class, especially with his identity skill that gives him very unique and fun playstyle. So, if you want to become the Iron Man in Lost Ark, then there's the class for you.
*And then for the last and final C Tier class, we have the Lance Master AKA, the Glavier. Glavier is the Spear building class. He's very fast paced that has to swap between two different weapons. But, he is easier to manage than the Deadeye. Glavier has to charge three bars and then swap to the other weapon to get a huge damage boost. This is the only class with a real counter skill that is very useful in raids. So, overall I really do recommend for every single player to at least try this class out.
*The last class in this 21 class Tier List, which is the Deadeye and we want to place him right in the D tier. Deadeye in PVE is a hard-hitting class that uses three different weapons. The main DPS weapon is the Shotgun. This class is strong. It can be even top DPS, if you manage everything perfectly. The issue with this class is that it's super squishy. It's very easy to get killed while using your Shotgun skills. Overall, this is a very hard class to pick up and get used to and in the end game.
If you want to make better use of these classes. You can use Lost Ark Gold to make good builds for them and equip them with some nice weapons and armors.
