Comments
I played all classes except healers and archer up to 65 and atleast +12 dread.
Imo slayer fitts quite well as a fast and bursty dps. Ninja is very cool too, it has a rly fast playstyle, with many smaller hits (except fire tavalanche, that [filtered] hits like a truck) that add up the more aggressive you play.
Best range class numberwise rn is gunner and its also a lot of fun
I really don't know what is the deal with people that are always picking up the more powerful class just to farm faster. If it doesn't fun, so it doesn't worh even playing.
The 'play what you want' comment comes from the experience many players have had where if they like a class and they feel good playing it, they will try to learn the class with more enthusiasm and in theory, get better at the class, whereas if a person doesn't like a class, even if the class is hard proven to be better, they won't attempt to get better at it because of lack of interest, and do poor performance. In the end, many people are particular to certain classes, though there's the few out there who can do well at any class, and can jump from FOTM to FOTM with relative ease.
The boosts for Slayers came closer to Brawler release, nothing notable was added for Slayers during NInjas patch. As long as you had +200 crit factor on slayer, you were a beast.
1. Ninja - easiest. most dps. best survive. Far best than any other dps.
2. brawler - well, we got less tank
3. gunner and reaper- still much better than another dps
4. slayer.
5. zerker
6. war, sorc, archer - backcrit chance depends on luck too much. Sometimes is good, sometimes is just white damage. war just needs to get dmg buff later.
Ninja> Brawler >>>>>>>>>>>Gun,Reaper >> Slayer>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> zerker >>>>>>>>>> war, sorc, archer
People don't even buy +15 War and Sorc VM in market.
