Hamemrwatch 2 Class (w/ Specialization) Tier list

S Tier

  • Radiance Paldin: A powerful AoE attack, especially when combined with Inner Flame. It is also more durable and offensive than other paladins.
  • Blade Rogue Blade Rogues have some of the most powerful single-target attacks and AoE attacks. Although not as durable, their deadly combinations can quickly overwhelm enemies.

A Tier

  • Divine Paladins: Divine Paladins also use Holy abilities to provide buffs. It is also one of the most defensive specs in the game, making it a great choice for front-line battles.
  • Demolitions Rogue Demolitions Rogue is a game that focuses on large burst AoE attack from afar, with varying effects. They are hard to catch because of their preference for long-range combat and their quick and agile movement.
  • Evocation Wizards: Evo wizards are able to cast powerful burst spells while slowing their enemies down with Crowd Control spells. They are squishy due to their lack of defense and mobility, but they can balance this with their destructive abilities.
  • Berserker Warrior: Berserker relies on extreme close-quarter combat. They are deadly up close, and their strength increases the lower their HP.
  • Beastmaster Ranger - BM Rangers can summon wolves to assist them in combat. These wolves have varying levels of lethality. This spec has one caveat: you are highly dependent on summons. However, they are powerful enough to earn a place in A-Tier.

B Tier

  • Tyrant Warrior : Tyrant Warriors are ranked lower because their DPS takes too long to increase. The damage they do is dependent on bringing down the HP of their opponents to a certain level.
  • Justice Paladins: Justice Paladins have powerful defensive abilities, and decent DoTs. But that's about it. They rely on their Shackles, Divine Hammer and other damage-dealing abilities to do most of the damage. However, they are not as powerful as higher-tier class.
  • Lightning Sorcerer - Lightning Sorcerer has a unique playing style because the damage is dependent on how long spells have been charged. Although squishy and weak, their abilities can stop enemy projectiles to compensate for battles at a distance. Their reliance on charged attack makes them slower when fighting quickly.
  • Chaos Warlock - Chaos Warlock is a powerful DPS, but it has a major weakness: It consumes too many resources. The constant casting of spells is required to increase their damage.

C Tier

  • Primalist Warrior : Primalists use their Totems as a way to boost their attacks. However, they do very little damage by themselves. To show off the DPS of these units, you need to spawn several. However, their static movement means they are unreliable when fighting enemies who move quickly.
  • Ice Sorcerer - Ice Sorcs' increased damage bonuses depend on random chance. Ice Shards are capable of dealing a lot of damage, IF the bonus damage is triggered.
  • Marksman ranger: While Marksmen are capable of dealing with high DPS, their slow speed makes them difficult to run. You can upgrade to remove these debuffs but it will take a long time to become negligible. This gives them a slow damage increase.
  • Souls Warlock : Soul Warlocks' attack increases based on the amount of essence they have stacked. It takes a long time to increase it, which makes its DPS unreliable.
  • Fire Sorcerer : Fire Sorcs have the same problem as Ice Sorcs. They are a DPS class with a huge but unreliable potential. They only have a chance of activating damage bonuses so their damage is dependent on RNG.
  • Poison Rogue - Poison Rogue relies on its poison cloud to deal primarily with DoTs. This ability is slow to ramp up damage, but it does debuff enemies. The damage is not as effective as other abilities, particularly against single targets, because the damage increases too slowly.

D Tier

  • Warden Ranger - The Wardens kit is centered around crowd control. Their DPS is mediocre, but they make up for that with their crowd control and debuffing abilities. The class is safe against multiple enemies but it takes too long to clear out the opponents.
  • Summoning Warlocks: Summoners' DPS is low because they must summon minions in order to boost their DPS. These summs will require essence stacks which can take a long time to produce.
  • Conjuration wizard: Conjurers' DPS is unreliable because they deal too little damage or randomly target enemies.
  • Transmutation Wizards: Transmutation Wizards is a company that specializes in buffs.
