Frequently Asked Questions

How often is the tier list updated?+

We update our tier list after every major balance patch and at least once per month. Check the official Discord for the latest meta discussion.

Should I only play S-tier classes?+

No — B-tier classes like Thief and Merchant are strong in specific niches. With Job Freedom, you can switch classes freely, so play what you enjoy.

Does gear matter more than class tier?+

At endgame, gear and build quality matter as much as class selection. A well-geared B-tier class can outperform a poorly built S-tier class.

Which class is best for solo play?+

Mage and Archer are the best solo classes — Mage for fast leveling, Archer for safe farming. Both have strong F2P builds.
