PvE Solo class tier list
Solo content, open world and leveling.
Last reviewed for game version 2.0.3.0 (EU/NA, level cap 45).Provisional
Low confidenceLow confidence for every class in this mode: the data behind these placements is thin, so expect changes.
In the EU client the main strikes of Gladiator, Assassin, Templar and Cleric hit harder than in the level-45 era these ranks are drawn from.
S
The best solo boss killer, with strong self-sustain.
Slower at clearing packs of ordinary mobs.
Top single-target burst and fast open-world farming.
Fragile without a healer.
Its spirits tank while it attacks, it has the best escape kit, and in the EU client its spirits act instantly on command.
Borderline between S and A.
A
The easiest and safest class to level: long range and good pack damage.
Only average at grinding ordinary mobs.
Nearly unkillable, and its stronger basic-attack chain in the EU client means it no longer kills slowly.
Fast solo boss clears and strong burst, with little mobility.
Among the slowest at farming ordinary mobs.
B
Hard to kill, and its crush skills hit much harder in the EU client, which makes it a decent farmer.
Slower than the damage classes on solo bosses.
Almost unkillable and cheap to gear; damage-first builds kill faster in the EU client.
Still among the slowest solo killers.
BrawlerComing later to EU/NABrawler is not in the EU/NA release yet, so it gets no tier and no build.
