Archeage tier list for lvl 50 cap *edited*

7/11/2014 - Class names have been switch to Trion's version, a dew notes abou patch 1.2 have been added in.

This list is meant to represent the viability of class combinations in ArcheAge at the current level cap of 50, a
lot of the builds change when the 1.0 patch rebalances classes around, specially those involving Vitalism and
Archery. I may sound biased towards some classes, but this is just the general consensus I've picked after months of
following this game, playing in various servers and watching a lot of streamers and their performance. You're not "a badie" for playing a less popular class, but you'll struggle more and will require your team to complement your weaknesses.

Tiers aren't meant to be a straight representation of strenght in a class combination, the higher in tiers they're
usually more viable all around in all situations (unless it's specified in the descriptions), and the lower they are they can be lacking in some aspects and be strong in others, as well as being more or less desirable in pvp/pve/solo/group content. Use your own judgement accordingly and play what you want, but don't be stupid and pick two offensive branches that require different stats, like Battlerage+Sorcery, you won't be able to stack both str and int, so you'll be mostly useless.

Most of the time you'll want one offensive class and one defensive class, if you don't pick any of the defensive
Trees you'll die in a simple cc combo. Occultism can fill the role of Offensive Tree quite well, but I still
consider it a mix of Damage and CC, unlike Shadowplay which really isn't good enough to fill a damaging role. Solo pvp
builds use Shadowplay a lot, it's incredibly useful, but it will also leave you very lacking in some other aspect, so
choose wisely.

---Offensive Trees---
Battlerage
Your average melee warrior class, gap closers, nice aoe, some cc, a great debuff, and probably the strongest buff in
the game (Rage). WARNING going melee as your main source of damage can be frustrating in this game, there's a lot of
risk, and not that much of a reward. It is fun and can be strong if played right, just expect it to be kind of a
hard mode for a while as well as taking a lot more damage in pve and some enemies being simply unkillable by
yourself.

Archery
Your not so average ranger, first of all koreans decided to put your basic spammable attack on another Tree, so you
better grab Shadowplay with this, or you'll be one useless mess. Best range in the game, decent area damage, average
cc, and some unreasonably long cooldowns.  Half the time you'll blow your stuff and be left doing nothing but quick
Quickshot, that's the reason Shadowplay tied with Archery is so  important. Archery is supposed to be the mage killer
class, but I wouldn't be so sure about that.

Sorcery
Archeage's spoiled child, You can't go wrong with this class at this level cap, almost every skill is useful
somehow, a defensive shield that also increases your stealth detection, some moderate CC, a few instant atacks, some
long casting devastating attacks, great area damage, great spammable atack (that leaves your rooted, but the good
damage makes up for it) and even a small group buff.

---Utility Trees/mixed Trees---
Occultism
Lot's useful skills, good aoe+cc, a really nice spammable attack, crits and crit damage for spells, nothing wrong
with Occultism, a very solid class. Be ready for people to say they hate your impale+crows combo.

Shadowplay
This is not the "rogue" class, this does have melee skills, and yes it has stealth, but you won't be a ninja with
this class by itself. It has ranged atacks, as well as gap closers and stuns. Many people will say stealth is
cheating, and they're probably right, but thankfully it comes with a big tradeoff and is very limited outside of
this class (for now). If you're really against grouping you relly want stealth, you can also stealth while carrying
a tradepack which helps a lot to avoid ganks.

---Support Trees---
Songcraft
Edit: This class got severly nerfed in patch 1.2. Proceed with caution.
Lots of Buffs, a few heals, Debuffs, and a retardedly strong passive. Just remember if you're playing songs they get
cancelled once you use any non song skill. WARNING if your class uses a magic regeneration instrument, the flute
sound may drive you insane, you'll hear this stupid tune so many times you'll listen to it during your sleep, in the
bathroom, during exams or while saying your marriage vows.

Vitalism
Edit: This class got severly nerfed in patch 1.2. This class is based off of the spirit stat now for healing,which is found on club weapons. It is not recommended to roll this unless you want to heal or weapon swap.
Not as many heals as you'd expect from the healing class, but some is better than none, continuous recovery is
ridiculous and people will hate you when you go from 1% to 50% or more in the blink of an eye. It has some not so
hot damage spells, a moderatly useful buff and an aura, the only class with built in resurrection and even a group
stealth. All the builds involving Vitalism get fucked as soon as 1.0 hits, because your heals are no longer tied to
your intelligence, you'll have too choose between healing or damaging gear.

---Defensive Trees---
Defense
Lot's of protection against melee and specially against archers, it has an invincibility buff and a reasonably large
area spell that can restrict people from leaving it's area of effect as long as they're being damaged so they can't glide out. Stun
reduction, healthpool increase, as well as a really good silence atack.

Auramancy
The tryhard pvp class, this game has a fuckton of CC's, and this class helps you to get rid from good deal of them, as
well as provide you with considerable magic protection for those big mage cooldowns. It's mostly a series of oh shit
buttons as well as some area disables and damage mitigation. So you hate dying? grab Auramancy and see how much your
survivability increases, you'll cry when you see a teleportation spell proc 4 times in a row and that guy you were
ganking is now 100 meters away.

Witchcraft
Do you like making people useless for moderate periods of time? Does your mage need to lift their opponents in the
sky unable to act while you cast your 5 second spells? Then grab Witchcraft as your defensive class and boost your
chances of surviving as well as disabling your oponents left and right.

For a full debrief of each class I suggest the following series of videos

Onwards to the Tier List.



***** T1.- Most of this builds are popular, not neccesarily for the right reasons, they simply work for what they're
built, this doesn't mean all the builds in this tier are on equal ground against each other, it just means you are
safe to grab one of this combinations and learn it along the way. *****

Edit: treat all classes with vitalism and songcraft with caution.These classes were badly nerfed by patch 1.2. It is recommended to avoid these classes unless you want to weapon swap or heal only.
The general gist of this is that healing is based on the spirit stat, which is found on clubs and thus will nerf your mag or phys attack.

1.- Auramancy+Occultism+Vitalism = Apostle / Edgewalker
This is the first build on the list, So I won't go into much detail about it, I'll just say you can kill 1 or even 2
guys with ease most of the time as long they aren't playing this exact build or jumped on you first

2.- Witchcraft+Sorcery+Shadowplay = Hermit / Daggerspell
Want to make people put your name in their death note? well you're on the right track with this. Some will argue
that you're missing a bit of damage for a mage, but who cares, you can kill pretty much anybody equally geared
unless they're anti mage.

3.- Sorcery+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Clown / Elegisteven
A very bursty mage for a surprise ambush, but you die faster than you kill if people catch you with your pants down,
most people will hate you for the ridiculous burst you can drop in 1 second when things go your way, so have fun
with it

4.- Auramancy+Archery+Shadowplay = Treasure Hunter / Primeval
I've seen a stream where the 10 players on the arena match where using this exact build... so that might give you an
idea of how popular it is. It's just the most viable pvp archer build in this stage of content, no way around it

5.- Battlerage+Auramancy+Shadowplay = Politician / Darkrunner
Another super common build, great mobility, good damage, gap closers, cc, if only you could throw fireballs...

6.- Battlerage+Defense+Shadowplay = Fighter / Blighter
Probably the most well rounded melee build, a good amount of gap closers, nice cc, decent mitigation, and stealth so
you can gank anyone anywhere, can't go wrong with this as long as you understand the limitations of melee.

7.- Defense+Auramancy+Occultism = Defender / Skullknight
T       A       N       K, baby's first character, you rarely die, superb in pve, annoying in pvp, good build for
raid/guild leaders who steal all the loot from their guild because they're the main tank

8.- Witchcraft+Auramancy+Vitalism = Sage / Hierophant
The most badass healer you can be, horrible for solo play, but godly for groups, suitable for anyone who likes to
support and do more than playing whack-a-mole with healthbars or playing songs far from the action.

9.- Occultism+Sorcery+Shadowplay = Angel of Death / Reaper
You're open to most attackers, but play like an opportunist and you'll do great, you have amazing sustainable
damage, quite a few combos and some of the best area attacks

10.- Auramancy+Sorcery+Songcraft = Tramp / Spellsong
Really solid build, I'm very tempted to play this on release, it's lacking a bit of cc, but you can still drop
ridiculous damage and defend yourself against other magey characters

11.- Witchcraft+Occultism+Vitalism = Elementalist / Necromancer
A really devastating build, 2 of this guys can take on hordes of enemies when played right. You'll be missing the
always handy perks of will, but you're still likely to be the last man standing in any large scale fight or small
skirmish

12.- Witchcraft+Sorcery+Songcraft = Master of Elements / Lamentor
A really well rounded bursty mage, fun, strong, annoying, and not squishie at all

13.- Defense+Occultism+Vitalism = Priest of Death / Justicar
Great combo, focusing on physical defense with a lot of tools to keep yourself alive, a viable tank for small group
content, more pve oriented than the apostle or the prophet

14.- Witchcraft+Occultism+Sorcery = Darkweaver / Demonologist
Aoe disabler mage, not as popular as your average stealth ganker, but very desired in any group and much more
durable

15.- Battlerage+Defense+Auramancy = Soldier / Abolisher
The melee tank, it's a very solid build for guild leaders or anyone who wants to boss people around and stand in the
front of a raid.

16.- Defense+Auramancy+Songcraft = Conservative Poet / Tomb Warden
The sturdy bard singing in the middle of a fight to invigorate his allys, little to no micro, you're pretty much a
walking totem of auras. Get some help while leveling or you'll hate the game

17.- Battlerage+Defense+Vitalism = White Knight  / Paladin
Good for pve, not that good for pvp but still manageable. Some people say the best tank is a tank that can heal
itself, I'm not so sure about that, I guess it depends on the content you're doing.

18.-  Occultism+Sorcery+Vitalism = Mystic Miracle / Cultist
The famous zombie build, king of pve solo farming, approved by thousands of bots daily! no defensive class hurts
your pvp viability tho, but you can always be of help in zergs




***** T2.- This combos are simply good, you may be lacking something, but you'll make up for it with strong synergy
among your classes. *****

19.- Defense+Sorcery+Songcraft = Playwright / Earthsinger
If you want a burst mage with an edge against physical damage pick this, the speed boost is always good and some
emergency heals also help

20.- Auramancy+Occultism+Sorcery = Warlock / Revenant
Great mage build, suitable in any situation, two spammable atacks, one usable on the move, and one for turret mode
with increased damage, you can escape from almost any problematic encounter, you'll love it

21.- Witchcraft+Auramancy+Occultism = Exorcist / Nightcloak
A good antimage build, tanky, mobility and lots of disables, some small self heals, probably your best bet if you
like the apostle build but don't want to be useless once 1.0 goes live

22.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Shadowplay = Assasine / Shadowblade
Supposedly a very OP and popular build, I call it the combo warrior, I'd place in T1, but sadly you still get hit
for a lot, and your chain can be destroyed with some simple dodge/block/parry leaving you open to retaliation.

23.- Defense+Songcraft+Vitalism = Warrior Protector / Caretaker
Great support character, just hard to level

24.- Defense+Archery+Shadowplay = Strategist / Stone Arrow
A bow and a shield? who would have thought, it does work, one of few things AA did right, it's definetly T1 against
physical classes, but trust me most tryhard mages will make you cry, so I'm pretty sure this belongs in T2

25.- Defense+Auramancy+Vitalism = Bodyguard / Templar
Everyone loves a healer, a healer that blocks arrows and melee atacks and can break out of cc's is even better. I'd
just like to say Vitalism isn't what you expect even at higher levels, while you have some extraordinaire heals, the
cooldown of most abilities is way too long, so you might want something less passive than this build to avoid
falling asleep

26.- Auramancy+Songcraft+Vitalism = Priest / Cleric
This is what most people pick when they want to play a full support character and don't do much research about the
game. It's very good indeed, but please consider other builds before picking it, you'll have a really rough time
before 30, and even after that you don't have a spammable attack. Remember any heal will cancel your auras so you
have to recast them. Great for those who want to help their friends all the time or if you want to turn your
girlfriend into a walking healthpot/buffbot 24/7.

27.- Witchcraft+Archery+Shadowplay = Chaser / Trickster
Really good archer build, you can be one special snowflake in a sea of primevals with this build, you might even
beat them half the time, that's if either of you leaves stealth or meet each other face to face

28.- Auramancy+Occultism+Songcraft = Tragic Poet / Phantasm
Like crits? hate mages? love flutes that make you run fast? well this is a somewhat unpopular combination that works
fine in most scenarios

29.- Auramancy+Sorcery+Vitalism = White Mage* / Boneweaver
Half mage, half healer in one single package, I'd be really happy to have an army of guys like this with me, they're
the swiss knife of ArcheAge

30.- Defense+Auramancy+Sorcery = Mage Patron / Thaumaturge
A mage that makes archers cry, good for someone who wants maximum mitigation and still be able to throw heavy nukes
like a siege tank

31.- Witchcraft+Auramancy+Sorcery = Sorcerer / Arcanist
The best tanky mage build imo, you're lacking on the crit department, but you're still better than 80% of the other
classes regarding damage, I'd even say this build is OP under the radar, but that's just me

32.- Auramancy+Sorcery+Shadowplay = Shadow Mercenary / Enigmatist
A fun mage build, good for most situations, a bit hard to keep people from running if you're trying to gank them,
but it gets the job done, if you like nukes and stealth, but hate dying in two blows, this is what you should pick

33.- Witchcraft+Auramancy+Songcraft = Preacher / Enchantrix
Oh you crazy bards and your tricks, a very passive build with some fun on the side, for when you don't want to think
about stuff and just have a good time, I'd like to play this but I'm too lazy to level it

34.- Defense+Occultism+Sorcery = Sorcery Guard Officer / Maledict
Great anti physical mage, but other mages will still kill you, so pick only if you hate archers with a passion or
you're preparing for the lvl55 update

35.- Witchcraft+Occultism+Songcraft = Scout / Tombcaller
this is probably the most warlocky warlock out there. it's not popular afaik, the extra juicy crits can make your

crows destroy people, you're still suceptible to heavy cc and your damage isn't stelar, but you're still very useful
in a group scenario

36.- Defense+Sorcery+Vitalism = Secret Protector / Scion
I'd say this is a sort of druid build, average damage, heals/support and good defense, fun to play overall

37.- Witchcraft+Sorcery+Vitalism = White Sorceryian / Shaman
Damage, heals, control, a jack of all trades that doesn't suck, I reccomend this to those who don't like being
locked to one role

38.- Witchcraft+Defense+Occultism = Caretaker / Defiler
A nice disruptor tank, not the most popular but not bad for pve, but you still can get cced and ignored most of the
time in pvp

39.- Sorcery+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Purifying Narrator / Animist
I'd rate this lower, but it's always nice to have a healer who can stealth and still nuke like a champ, just don't
forget you're open to any kind of crowd control people decide to throw your way

40.-Witchcraft+Defense+Vitalism = Surgeon / Shadowbane
Not your everyday healer, good in every group, but some heavy cc can still make you sad, and as expected ultra low
damage potential

41.- Witchcraft+Songcraft+Vitalism = Rehabilitation Specialist / Athame
All the support in the game in one character, now with increased survivability and annoying debuffs, great if you
can get a static party or you like whoring yourself all the time, otherwise you'll struggle to level and perform
menial daily chores

42.- Archery+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Missionary / Ranger
Also known as Gaian, a lot of people use this on my guild, I'm not a fan of it tho, I was going to place this on T3
but I'm reconsidering it after realizing how limited archer builds are, I guess this kind of hybrid builds are
invaluable when there's no proper healers available, specially since Shadowplay synergizes with archery perfectly

43.- Battlerage+Auramancy+Vitalism = Wandering Monk / Argent
For some reason not as popular as paladin, I wouldn't play it, but it's legit for pve, not that bad for pvp if you
have people carrying you, but you won't have much combos available.

44.- Occultism+Sorcery+Songcraft = Cultivator / Requiem
Pretty much the most glass cannon build you can pick, I don't reccomend it, you'll die A LOT, but if you like the
highest numbers possible popping in your screen go ahead and grab this class

45.- Battlerage+Archery+Shadowplay = Spy / Outrider
A very fragile but strong archer, the crit debuff from combat is the only reason to pick combat instead of
will/protection/conjury, but is it worth it? follow your dreams and find out.

46.- Archery+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Shadow Dancer / Ebonsong
Mostly a pve build, but it works in pvp too, One of the few archer playable builds, so go ahead and pick this if you
like songs and bow attacks

47.- Witchcraft+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Headhunter / Solstice Singer
This is not a combat centric character, this is the merchant build, don't pick this unless you're devoted to being a
merchant.




***** T3.- You'll be subpar in one or more areas, you're not neccesarily "bad", some experienced people might even
grab them because they know exactly what they're getting into, but I wouldn't reccomend them to new players because
you'll get beat by the more common class combos and complain that you can't do X thing they do better than you. *****

48.- Occultism+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Writer / Vulgarist
Another build for the building enthusiasts, it's very playable if you know what're getting into, still I suggest you
reconsider other alternatives before picking this, It's a great build for pirates who prey on weaker people, or
players more focused on trading, but on fair combat you're very open to cc making your life miserable

49.- Defense+Occultism+Songcraft = Praetorian / Dark Aegis
Crits for everyone and beyond thanks to passives, all your classes provide some sort of area effect that can bring a
lot of mayhem to group fights, I'd rate this in T2 for pve, but for pvp will is better than protection

50.- Auramancy+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Shadow Musician / Jackknife
Surprise your enemies with a pocket bard, sing sweet songs of destruction to your enemies and inspiring melodies to
your friends, if all goes wrong you're still an excellent entertainer for children parties and romantic serenades

51.- Auramancy+Occultism+Shadowplay = Interrogator / Planeshifter
This isn't a bad build, you have a nice aoe combo you can pull after breaking stealth on unsuspecting groups, but
there's a bunch of more viable solutions for whatever you're trying to get out of this

52.- Defense+Occultism+Shadowplay = Guardsman / Dreadnaught
Sneaky, annoying and disruptive with good defense, it's very playable in pvp groups imo, but by yourself you'll be

missing a bit of damage and can get countered with cc really bad

53.- Witchcraft+Defense+Sorcery = Paladin* /Cabalist
One of the most defensive mage builds, a bit too heavy on the defense I'd say, but if that's your thing go for it.

54.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Auramancy = Builder / Hex Warden
Go loco, a very disruptive warrior with lowish damage, it can work with a healer backing you up, just don't expect
to one shot people like the other warriors unless they're squishie

55.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Defense = Mental Destroyer / Hexblade
A very defensive combination with the potential for dps bursts, but still suceptible to some heavy CC, only for the
adventurous

56.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Vitalism = Spiritualist / Dervish
An ok Alternative to the Paladin build if you want more CC instead of straight up mitigation, still lacking some
desired survivability and mobility.

57.- Defense+Sorcery+Shadowplay = Paladin* / Swiftstone
A somewhat unusual mage, not my personal favorite, but it gets the job done if you really want stealth and blocking
non magical damage

58.- Battlerage+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Inquisitor
A good melee option if you just want to have fun, you can keep yourself up and others, ambush in partys, but weak to
pretty much anyone heavy on cc

59.- Occultism+Songcraft+Vitalism = Monk / Sorrowsong
The crit healer, it's not a very durable build, if you can manage to stay out of danger it could work, but seriously
I'd use it mostly as a leveling build, once you're 50 drop one of them and grab a defensive class so you can be more
viable in pvp.

60.- Occultism+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Athlete / Nocturne
Eventhough your crits will be massive, you don't have the nukes to exploit it nor the combos to burst people down
consistently, not to mention your lack of defensive skills. But stealth allows you to choose your fights, pick your
encounters wisely and this will be fun

61.- Sorcery+Songcraft+Vitalism = Physiognomist / Gypsy
I've seen a few people playing this, I wouldn't reccomend it, but if you're aware of the risks involved in having no
cc breakers and missing all the perks of the defensive classes, then feel free to pick this. You can manage by
keeping Barrier up all the time and spamming Continuous Recovery, Anthem of Defense and Loving Soul will give you
some very desired magical resistance to you and your teammates, Flowing life, Seed of restoration and Anthem of
recovery will keep your regeneration going, and in very dire situations Healing Earth can be just what you need to
stay alive in the right situation

62.- Battlerage+Defense+Occultism = Dark Knight / Doomlord
If you want a melee disabler conjury is better, necro has some neat stuff going on, but remember it's magic damage,
it won't help you that much if your main source of damage is melee. Funny thing is Rage combos with a necro ability
to avoid the stun, I still don't think they're meant to be together unless you plan some gimmicky aoe combo which
you can do with the protection abilities.

63.-Witchcraft+Defense+Songcraft = Trickster / Poxbane
The disable bard, very hard to level, worth it? only if you're a masochist but sure

64.- Witchcraft+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Jester / Assassin
You're mostly a joke, but don't get discouraged, some people might like you simply because you can heal, cc and be a
good little girl hiding in stealth

65.- Witchcraft+Occultism+Shadowplay = Civil Engineer / Shroudmaster
Not incredibly terrible as it might seem at first, sadly necro passives only boost magical attacks, otherwise this
could be an interesting build boosting crit damage with plenty of CC and what not, but that's not the chase.

66.- Battlerage+Songcraft+Vitalism = Defrocked Priest / Bloodthrall
A super flimsy support, it can be fun in pve, but it's really bad for pvp, only for the jolly bards at hearth
without a care in the world.

67.- Auramancy+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Predictor / Soothsayer
We have a guy in our guild with this build and no one but him likes it, it can somehow annoy 1 person and get lucky
kills, but it's extremely limited in a lot of areas, I'd skip it but feel free to try it and prove me wrong

68.- Battlerage+Auramancy+Occultism = Parlamenter / Bloodreave
It probably should be lower in the list, but I think you can still kill some people with this, just not many, but
some of the less optimized can be killed somehow with this thanks to Auramancy.

69.- Defense+Auramancy+Shadowplay = Shadow Projection / Nightblade
A tanky rogue with barely any damage, I'd rate this lower, but this is a good build for those who like playing some
sort of scout for tradeships or stealing tradepacks in the middle of a fight while no one is paying attention

70.- Witchcraft+Defense+Auramancy = Enchanter / Dreambreaker
The ultimate disruptor, you can be very annoying and you can soak damage like it's nothing, sadly your offensive
capability is close to nothing or at least very insignificant at lvl 50. I'd say this build isn't viable and I've
never seen someon use it, but I know one of you crazy enthusiasts might surprise me with this someday wearing ultra
expensive gear that allows you to deal damage reliably and still be one indestructible fortress.




***** T4.- Picking one of this combos is settling yourself for dissapointment, you probably thought something about
this combination sounded cool, but trust me, it's not. *****

71.- Battlerage+Occultism+Shadowplay = Berserker / Executioner
Weak to everything, if you want disables get Witchcraft instead of necro

72.- Occultism+Archery+Shadowplay = Killer / Shadehunter
A playable combination, but very fragile, If gear supported this build it could be in T3, but there's not, so why
bother

73.- Defense+Shadowplay+Vitalism = Secret Knight / Death Warden
Yeah you get to heal, stealth and block, but everything else will be mostly dissapointing, this could be in T3 for

pve, but seriously you can do better

74.- Battlerage+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Romantic Robber / Blade Dancer
The stealthy melee bard, I don't know, there's worse stuff out there, but you can do better as well

75.-alling+Songcraft+Vitalism= Musician / Confessor
I get it, you want to support and still be able to stealth, but you'll be very vulnerable to any competent player,
you won't be the worst class ever, but you'll struggle with a lot of people

76.- ombat+Occultism+Vitalism = Martial Arts Master / Blackguard
It's not good, but I guess you could do some surprise Rage combo for fun if people forget to cc you.

77.- Witchcraft+Auramancy+Shadowplay = Executioner / Eidolon
Just bad, you can take some havy punishment, be sneaky mcstabs, and provide some really nice disables, but by
yourself you're pretty mediocre

78.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Songcraft = Choreographer / Dirgeweaver
I wish this combination was more viable so you could play a sort of melee bard, but sadly it's not, artistry simply

doesn't combine in any way with Battlerage.

79.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Occultism = Master of Unarmed Battlerage / Deathgrim
If only necro boosted all crits instead of magical, this would be good, but sadly it's not even decent.

80.- Battlerage+Auramancy+Songcraft = Sophisticated Romantic / Herald
Again a melee bard that should be viable, but it's not, sad times.

81.- Defense+Shadowplay+Songcraft = Bully / Archivist
It's not the most unplayable of builds, but it'd be very underwhelming in a lot of areas, I actually did play this
combination in the Russian server to see if Shadowplay by itself provided enough damage for a competent character, the
results of that experiment are reflected in the position of this class combo

82.- Battlerage+Defense+Songcraft = Romantic Knight / Dawncaller
Not exactly viable, it has some heals, defense and damage, but you either hit or you sing, so there's a good deal of
the class being useless half of the time

83.- Witchcraft+Defense+Shadowplay = Slayer / Cavestalker
Surprise commander, pop out of stealth and annoy people, funsies for all the family

84.- Defense+Archery+Vitalism = Guardian Knight / Druid
Well you can heal people and be useless most of the time, so that's something

85.- Defense+Archery+Songcraft = Hunter / Honorguard
If you can level this to 50 I'd applaud you, I don't know why'd you do it, but you go and be creative man, have fun

kiting everything for 30 seconds

86.- Battlerage+Occultism+Songcraft = Tragic Musician / Lorebreaker
Not much sinergy for combat with any of this two other branches, yeah you can level with this if you feel
adventurous, but I'd advice against it

87.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Archery = Ranger / Ebon Druid
With a name like ranger you'd expect an actual archer class to be playable, but nope, Archery without Shadowplay is just bad.




***** T5.- This classes are simply not viable, they shouldn't even exist, but they do. Avoid like the plague. *****

88.- Battlerage+Occultism+Sorcery = Envoy / Ravager
You can kill stuff with this alright, but please don't do it, there's no reason to mix magic with combat, yeah rage

can get you some crazy dmg boost, but you won't live long with this build for rage to even reach 5 stacks.


89.- Battlerage+Defense+Sorcery = Sorcery Knight / Crusader
Sounds cool, but you can't stack two offensive stats

90.- Battlerage+Auramancy+Sorcery = Tactician / Enforcer
Half mage, half warrior, half wins, full loses. Math doens't add up!

91.- Battlerage+Sorcery+Shadowplay = Sorcery Thief / Hellweaver
Only try this if you feel like impersonating a magical kirito

92.- Battlerage+Witchcraft+Sorcery = Geomancer / Harbinger
God damn they had to give the cool name to a shit combination, str+int no no no...

93.- Battlerage+Sorcery+Songcraft = Warrior Mage / Spellsword
It's not horrible, but there's no way to gear for this (so yeah it's horrible)

94.- Battlerage+Sorcery+Vitalism = Knight of Honor / Fleshshaper
This is for the role confused people, I want to heal, but I want to be a mage, and also I want to be a warrior, your

body will end like a hybrid splat of blood on the floor, but you won't miss anything!

95.- Battlerage+Archery+Vitalism = Guardian of the Battlefield / Warpriest
No gear to support this build and archer sucks by itself, I've seen streamers using this, I'm really sad they didn't

research at all or even read their tooltips

96.- Witchcraft+Defense+Archery = Forest Defender / Chaotician
Tanky? sure, useless? pretty much, I'd be really surprised to see anyone with this at 50

97.- Battlerage+Defense+Archery = Knight Errant / Liberator
Doesn't work sorry

98.-Auramancy+Archery+Sorcery = Expert / Stormchaser
Stoooooooooooooooooooooormchaaaaseeer It totally sounds like an 80's cartoon show I'd love to watch, but I wouldn't

love to watch this build on my team sorry

99.- Witchcraft+Auramancy+Archery = Wanderer / Arcane Hunter
One of the builds that goes from T5 to T1 overnight once the lvl 55 cap is raised, very amazing, but not playable

untill then

100.- Witchcraft+Archery+Sorcery = Natural Mystic / *Naturalist
Into the trash it goes

101.- Witchcraft+Occultism+Archery = Trained Geomancer / Shadowstriker
Another confused archer, now with more dark thoughts for free

102.- Witchcraft+Archery+Vitalism = Summoner / soulbow
Doesn't work, it's fucked


103.- Defense+Archery+Sorcery = Wild Sorceryian / Farslayer
People will tell stories about you until the servers are closed with this build, do it if you want praise and

admiration from complete strangers

104.- Defense+Auramancy+Archery = Observer / Bastion
don't, stop right there, don't even think abuout it, you don't want this, I can asure you that

105.- Auramancy+Archery+Vitalism = Mystic / Oracle
I've played a character like this in Dungeons and Dragons, it was a blast, too bad AA devs realized archery needed

to be viable by itself until 1.0

106.- Defense+Occultism+Archery = Wrathful Warrior Spirit / Tomb Ranger
Another cool concept made useless due to game mechanics

107.- Battlerage+Auramancy+Archery = Inventor / Bonestalker
BZZZZZZZZ NEXT!

107.- Auramancy+Occultism+Archery = Monster Hunter / Disperser
You won't be hunting any monsters with this, again game mechanics make this build barely playable

108.- Auramancy+Archery+Songcraft = Commoner / Howler
Nothing to see here, another fail build no one should touch until the update, NO ONE

109.- Witchcraft+Archery+Songcraft = Archaeologist / Pox Ranger
B     A      D

110.-  Archery+Sorcery+Vitalism = Itinerant Trader / *Naturalist
So many things wrong with this, well actually just one, I'll let you find out

111.- Occultism+Archery+Sorcery = Diviner / Darkstring
Yeah you can do this and still kill people 50% of the time, but it's a waste, don't pick this please

112.- Occultism+Archery+Vitalism = Player / Blood Arrow
Waste of time, don't do this to yourself

113.- Archery+Sorcery+Shadowplay = Sniper / Infiltrator
I've seen people actually playing this in my guild, a single tear runs down my face when I see them, but I'm not

alpha enough to tell them they're wasting their time

114.- Occultism+Archery+Songcraft = Black Musician / Gravesinger
Drop archery, and pick something else, you'll be fine, preferably not combat either

115.- Archery+Sorcery+Songcraft = Adventurer / Evoker
Your adventures will be very mediocre using this build

116.- Archery+Songcraft+Vitalism = Playboy / Soulsong
Lame, don't bother

117.- Battlerage+Archery+Sorcery = Sorceryal Warrior  / Fiendhunter
I want ALL the DAMAGE in the world! you go girl! take the them them all out with your god damn genkidama.

118.- Battlerage+Archery+Songcraft = Warrior Poet / Enlightened
Yeah you don't want this, trust me.

119.- Battlerage+Occultism+Archery = Oppressor / Dreadbow
A complete mess

120.- I-I... missed something sorry, it probably was really bad anyways


Might update this later if anyone points out something reasonable, hope this helped you pick your class combo, feel
free to ignore it if you know what you're doing I'm not trying to bash anyone's build, just guide the people who
are mostly clueless about what to pick. Thanks for reading this and see you in game.
