8 Berserker

And Dying Damage Dealer

  • Archetype: Swordsman
  • Role: Tank/DPS

Berserker embodies the warrior archetype in Crystal of Atlan and wields a massive blade, soaking up all the damage in order to grow stronger. The Berserker is an assault-focused class that needs to jump into the fray and give as much damage as he takes.

With wide arcing slices, the Berserker is an excellent character for hitting grouped enemies and does decent single-target damage. With his unique skills, Ragefire and Frenzy, the Berserker can sacrifice health for more defense and damage. Overall, it's an ideal class for players who want to start swinging and continue swinging.

7 Blade Maiden

A Blinding Storm Of Blades

  • Archetype: Puppeteer
  • Role: DPS

The Blademaiden is a unique combination of ranged and melee attacks. She also has access to a transformation that sets her apart from her Scytheguard counterpart, as a member of the Puppetmaster archetype.

The Blademaiden is strong in the burst damage department but can increase her sustained damage by combining with her Marionette and gaining access to a host of new skills. While separate, the Blademaiden and the Marionette will mimic attacks with one another, dealing twice the damage, making the Blademaiden a very strong class but lacking in the mobility department.

6 Bounty Hunter

Great Burst And AOE Damage

  • Archetype: Musketeer
  • Role: DPS

The Bounty Hunter is the classic dual pistol character who can turn enemies into Swiss cheese with a hail of bullets. Her mobility and speed make her unique compared to the Gunner class and give her some of the best damage in the game.

The Bounty Hunter has a range of abilities that target large areas around her model and lock down groups of targets from multiple angles. Additionally, she can perform adequately in single-target damage while stacking skills on a single area. With her ability to hit multiple angles quickly, she is ideal for players who prefer fast-paced gameplay.

5 Magiblade

High Skill Ceiling With Massive Damage

  • Archetype: Swordsman
  • Role: DPS

The Magiblade is the perfect class for fans of Devil May Cry who want to become the storm that is approaching. Essentially, the Magiblade is a member of the swordsman archetype, blending elements of Devil May Cry and Sword Art Online.

With magic-infused attacks, the Magiblade zips around the map, skewering enemies with energy slashes and magical explosions. The class has incredibly high damage numbers and lightning-fast combos, being great for solo or group play. For combo masters and lab-monsters, the Magiblade is a great choice.

4 Gunner

Hard-Hitting AOE Monster

  • Archetype: Musketeer
  • Role: DPS

Gunner is another ranged focus class that carries a massive cannon and rains down catastrophic artillery on groups of enemies. The Gunner excels at elemental damage and can hit large areas with damage over time.

While primarily dealing fire damage, Gunner can consistently deal shield-breaking damage, making her a great sub DPS class to play. She can easily pelt a large number of enemies with a cross between ranged and melee attacks that change depending on the previous skill used. Gunner may have a high skill threshold, but it is a good, well-rounded class.

3 Cloudstrider

Versatile Fighter With Hard-Hitting Strikes

  • Archetype: Fighter
  • Role: DPS

Cloudstrider is an incredibly fun and flashy class to play in Crystal of Atlan, boasting a wide variety of skills thanks to its different stances. Fans of combo-heavy and very aggressive classes will likely enjoy diving into mobs as the fighter archetype. Cloudstrider excels at single-target damage with quick, chainable strikes that are similar to Udyr in League of Legends.

Mobile gamers have a lot of options to choose from when it comes to great MMORPGs, from EVE Echoes to RuneScape.

Cloudstriker is an exceptional damage class but suffers from a lack of survivability, making her underperform in higher-level content. Players who are comfortable with the glass cannon route, however, will likely enjoy Cloudstriker.

2 Scytheguard

A Sole Support With DPS Capabilities

  • Archetype: Puppeteer
  • Role: DPS/Support

The Scytheguard is another member of the Puppetmaster archetype. This class summons a scythe-wielding Marionette that can both deal damage and provide adequate support to the Scytheguard's allies.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed when looking at the genre of MMORPGs, but if you don’t quite know where to start, we have you covered!

Being the only Support-able class in Crystal of Atlan, the Scytheguard proves to be a very valuable class to have in a team, but she struggles solo. With moderate damage and healing, the Scytheguard can provide invaluable aid and survivability to a group. While mainly a melee class, players who wish to be a jack of all trades but master of none will enjoy the Scytheguard's playstyle.

1 Warlock

A Great Solo Class With High Damage And Survivability

​​​​​​​

  • Archetype: Magister
  • Role: DPS

The Warlock is one of the most damaging classes in Crystal of Atlan, boasting a number of unique abilities and effects, such as Life Steel and debuff implementation. The Warlock is the counterpart to the Elementalist and wields powerful dark magic to shred targets into ribbons.

The Warlock can weave in and out of ranged and melee combat with powerful AOE spells and slash attacks that deal considerable damage and heal the Warlock at the same time. Along with a transformation ability that takes inspiration from the devil mode of the Mishima family, the Warlock is a great class for versatile players.
