    Currently most op is Sorc, but then again for newbie it would be easier to play ninja, however it all depends as when the ninja came I didn't abandon my reaper nor when Sorc got buffed, I just do not see why should I swap each time the other class is buffed/gets more op, I like mine and that's it. IMO if you are coming back after 2 years like I did half a year ago from my 3 year vacation from tera xD you should try ninja to get familiar with game and after you run some dungeons try some classes gameplay and decide on your main, it is hard to tell you this and that when in the end it is your decision good luck and have fun playing.

    for me the most op classes now (as I see it)
    PvE -> Sorc, Ninja
    PvP -> Reaper

    Where are people getting this idealistic crap about mastered classes being able to outdps anyone? A mastered slayer or gunner, or any class for that matter will not outdps a sorc or ninja of comparable, or even lower skill depending how low you want to go down the dps ladder. Yes you can learn any class and do well with it, but the fact is if that time had been spent learning sorc or ninja instead, you would be doing significantly higher dps.

    This, pretty much.

    A full on mastered Slayer/Gunner playing to 100% of the class' capability can barely match a mediocre Sorc/Ninja playing to 60% of that class's maximum.

    This is true.

    You can visit that you-know-what place where you can check out the top 100 DPS for a boss for each class, take Nightmare Lachelith for example - I know not everyone logs their performance there but it is an acceptable sample size - and you will see the HUGE difference of the Sorc/Ninja/Archer to Slayer/Gunner. These two are pretty much lacking even if you know how to play them - that's a fact. Even if you are the most skilled Gunner/Slayer in all of NA, no amount of skill can make you do around 3M/sec on Nightmare Lachelith like the Sorc/Ninja/Archer does (you can probably try slaying it with Slayer/Gunner - but honestly, who would want that on a boss that you have to take damage with?).

    Tera's playerbase is just delusional, they rly think they play some sort of Counter Strike or BF where only skill matters lol.

    This game was very unbalanced >by design< since ever and nothing changed on Spellbound patch.

    And here we can see some data for Nightmare Lachelith:

    As you guys can see, there's a huge 40-50% gap between Sorc and Slayer!
    Just as a example, the dps gap between VM8.5 +15 and Slaughter +12 is something like ~32%!
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B_FGl2LOz658pK5251lXQ_beA8i6qCEVF9j8WZstbJg/edit#gid=109019359

    So, in theory, a skilled SL +12 sorc can beat a skilled VM8.5 +15 slayer lol!

    Let's see how "balanced" this game really is:

    Top 10% Averages, we're not talking about newcomers here :)

    Zerk --- 100,7% - they want a revamp lol.
    Sorc --- 100% DPS
    Ninja --- 98%
    Archer -- 89,1%
    Warrior -- 83,9%
    Brawler -- 83,1%
    Reaper -- 82,6%
    Slayer -- 65,9%
    Gunner -- 65,2%
    Lancer -- 64,1%

    Sorc is a [filtered] 51~53% better than Slayer/Gunners, and ppl here talk about "Skill" lol

    Btw, i know BHS, next patch they'll just make archer better than sorc and this 50% gap between dps classes will be something like 60%+ :-1:
