Top 5 ArcheAge Best Classes

ArcheAge Best Classes
What you should be playing!


Best ArcheAge classes to play right now!

After hours of research on different forums, reading veteran opinions and adding in my personal experience, we can safely say that these here are the top 5 ArcheAge classes right now. Some of you may disagree, since everyone has a different playstyle, but this quick guide will help you choose the strongest overpowered classes in ArcheAge.

5. Enigmatist

Some consider this class the equivalent of darkrunner, except that it is the magic version of it. As darkrunner, you can instakill someone with as little as 4 skills or a bit more, but you get the idea. Some say that Enigmatist is played almost the same way Le Blanc from League of Legends is played, which is interesting to say the least. The Enigmatist is very powerful in PvP and it is also good at PvE. Yet the build you are about to see is completely PvP sided. What more to ask for, right? Well it has its setbacks as any other class. It doesn’t have as much CC and has long cooldowns. But if played smart, everything will be alright.

Black Magic

4. Abolisher

The Abolisher can also have very high DPS. It is a bit of a hard skillset to master if you haven’t played a lot of MMO games. The Abolisher has decent amounts of combos but there is one problem. TIMING. Timing can be clutch, especially in PvP against a skilled opponent. The Abolisher is less about spamming skills and not for everyone. However, once mastered, can be lethal.

Just pure DMG

3. Primeval

Primeval is an interesting class. A lot of people seem to be confused about how it works since there are a lot of requests for a build even on the official forum page of ArcheAge. It is essentially again a PvE/PvP build. More on the PvP side. It has less combos compared to the daggerspell class but that means that it is also easier to control.

Kind of balanced

2. Daggerspell

The Daggerspell is a very good range/mage type. It is good because it has a lot of combos you can perform. However, more combos also mean more skill required to unleash them on your opponents. The build we will show you below is more like an all-rounder. High DPS, a lot of combos, good for PvE and PvP. That means that it is very powerful but at the same time balanced for all around play. The class has been good from patch 3.5 which means that it is stable as well! And most importantly, the Daggerspell has a lot of CC!!

The balanced build

1. Darkrunner

Apparently one of the most annoying classes according to the community. A lot of people complain that this class can out-DPS most classes, but not all, especially with 2 divine weapons (this one is for the melee types). Even in the official 4.0 patch of the game, the Darkrunner is still overpowered and the community wants it to be nerfed.

Since the performance of the class depends a lot on the gear it has, one question remains, how to create the perfect darkrunner? Well this is very situational and personal to say that there is “the best”. However, we will still see a build that is favored by the bigger part of the community.

One shot it if you can

All in all, each class can be played a couple of different ways with player customization. Since the game hasn’t received much patches, these builds should work for quite sometime into the future and it isn’t even 100% that the next patch will change anything (in other words these builds are pretty futureproof).

Well, keep grinding folks and be careful not to forget what the sun looks like.
