Why - Pretty good default set of stigmas everything is straight forward just charged and dps you u need to keep boosting mb via Stability Thrusters only problem is u must not spam skills cause Stability Thrusters will deactive if u use it again.
The reason why its no5 because it has worst dps of all magic class and not good until u level 75 and the worst point is u can't see ur own skin while mounting robot make this class totally unpopular. Why - Good damage with cannon bad damage with pistols but u able to move while shooting with pistols,the default stigmas is pistol set. The problem with gunner is a lot of charging skills with cannon make people with impatient don't like it and u have to switching weapons all time cause u need mp from pistols.
Make this class is pretty hard for beginners but once u mastered it's one of top dps class. Why - They're only physical class with ability to heal got HP mantra to auto heal HP,Speed mantra to speed up running speed and Invincible Mantra to keep healing MP,you can kill anything non stop able,The reason why it's no7 because you need to weaving or u running out of skills and weaving is advance step in aion all physical classes require weaving.
Why - Default stigmas you got is not good cause u lacking of Invigorating Strike. You really don't need to switch weapons as a Templar. Again you will running out of skills if u don't weaving. Why - Because you need to spam focus shot every 5 skill which can be extremely annoying. If u don't use focus shot ur dps will be horrible. The bad point is u got a lot of buffs that u need to spam Bestical Fury,Focus Shot,Devotion make u extremely busy as a ranger.
Good thing is u can reached attack speed cap at lv30 once u got BF and don't forget u have to weaving too. Why - It's very hard to weaving with DW because your attack speed is very fast but other than that it's like Templar. Why - It's hardest class in Aion to play and not recommended to any beginners to play. Tons of buffs that keep u busy like hell plus rune system plus u need to attack with poison attack from behind and it's the fastest class in game make weaving with sin is nightmarish.
Attack animation is extremely fast and it burning power shards like hell. Somehow this is just a guide line doesn't make u should avoid certain classes because this guide said they're too hard to play,I've played every class and I say every class is fun and unique there's no such as too hard class or bad one. Some people might find SM easier than SW. If you can't make up ur mind just try every class I hope this guide helps one way or another.
Thank you. I think cleric is even easier than SW, cause even if the DPS is smaller this is not really true with endgame gear, but it happens at lower levels , the cleric has stronger and faster heals so you can recover faster your HP if needed.
The cleric also has a lot of instant skills so it can just run in circles and avoid a lot of hits. That makes easier for that class to kill strong enemies or even soloing more instances and quests.
I found the gladiator easier than templar. Glads have better dps and with polearms have more AoE skills. Some of them even recover HP. So they can kill mobs faster and are better to face many low-med difficult mobs at once.
Templar are more resistant and will live longer with some hard mobs. But all that HP will be so annoying, cause after killing some mobs you will have to sit and wait so long to recover it all so you can come back to the action. Of course I saw that you made this guide about soloing things and leveling alone.
As you said, things change when you have to play in a group and need to take your role. To master this role you will need to find your best rotation of skills, learn where you have to be to avoid unnecesary damage and try to learn a little about how to help with your own HP and MP.
Even when some people thinks that DPS is just about gear, actually rotations are way more significant. You can be a good DPS even with a regular gear, but you can not be a good DPS with the better gear and a bad rotation of skills.
In some way all the classes can be DPS with practice. Tank: Harder than DPS. You are in some way dependant of your gear. Your resistance and stats depends so much on what gear you use.
You are the one supposed to start the battles so you must know where to go and what to lure. You will need to learn your skills so you can take agro and protect the others. You also will have some skills thay will save you from hard attacks and some times without them you will not be able to survive.
Some classes are easier to do this job plates, AT , but actually other classes can do it with a great gear and practice.
Heal: This is a little complicated to learn. The healers are more dependant on skills than gear. So few instances will require an specific gear.
But you need to do some tasks when healing: - have control on the map: you need to see where are your group members and need to be in the center of them so you can reach all of them. You need to know where you can take less damage to avoid being hit. Even when you are supposed to focus on the tank, you must try to not loose any of your companions.
Everyone is important and is doing a job, so you need them all alive. You will need to see if they need a dispel too. Wasting a big heal when no needed could result on not having that skill when needed. You will have to learn the right skill for each amount of HP lost. You need to put attention on that, use your MP recovering skills, potions and do not spam heals if there is no need or your MP will be empty.
And No, the SW is not your slave. If there is a SW and he helps you, nice. But you need to learn to have MP without any SW this role usually goes to the cleric, but chanters and SW can also do it with a lot of practice and skills. Support: Probably the hardest one to master. A lot of people use classes that can be support chanters and SW , but so few are really good on this role.
But to do this, you will need to learn how to do many things at the same time. When your team will need an strong defense and when they will need to boost their DPS - you will be a second healer in hard situations. So you will have to pay attention to HP and MP bars on your team. If the cleric is having a hard time, you will help him. And if you can give MP, you will see when and who needs it. So bassically you need to know how to be a healer too - when everything is fine you will help with some DPS to make the run faster.
Hi thank you for your interests in this thread. Yes there're roles for each class for a glad tanking and dps is same thing but for a temp it's not wise to use reroute power while tanking.
As for myself I think main healing is kinda harder than support mp heal,shield,buffs because as a cleric u have to dispel timing ur aoe heal and loci people loci will remove SS which is why cleric should res for a starter cleric I suggest u should trying to heal easy instances first like ORB then advance to g2 cleric IS then try adma and ttc with a support chanter.
Ofc people are mean and will say horrible stuff to you if u failed at healing but please remember nobody know how to heal without failing if u lacking of confident get some friends with u believe me those who cursing u they're just bad all they have just a mouth and they talk big but if someone giving u an advice please do listen to them.
About glad I specify said it's DW glad the reason I didn't included polearms in the guide because polearms is toward to pvp and it's kinda hard to gather mobs in open world illume u will likely to kill them 1 by 1.
Yes it's possible to weaving with polearms but the result is not as good as with DW. I believed in later levels temp aoe will be superior than glad aoe.
Thank you all I hope this will answer some of your questions if not all. Please remember it's just a guide line it isn't a rule that you have to follow what matter is as long as u having fun with ur class then enjoy it.
When I started Aion at launch I started with a sorc because I was coming from WoW and I mained a shadow priest I figured a game with only 1 healer at the time wouldn't have a viable speccing of the healer to dps. It was fun to play but then I made a chanter and found it easier to play than my sorc because of the self healing and all the other things it could do.
Its not as difficult to play as you would think either. Chanter has a few quirks that some people don't really consider. That's such a waste though. That skills cuts casting time in half; in other words, if the group's HP starts to decrease fast and the cleric is struggling, that skill can literally save the group because the cleric can get those heals cast in half the time.
WoQ has a 5 minute cooldown, so you can really only use it once per boss fight in most instances. It's better to keep that skill saved for an "oh crap" moment when the cleric is struggling. True but if there's 2 chanters in the group that means there's 2 WOQ to be used.
One can save theirs for the end or the "oh shit" moment and the other can use it in the beginning to help dps faster. That's not quite correct. For my personal use I rather to use WoQ when somebody died and use it as fast res in group or oh shit moment. Anyway using at beginning of the fight may not as good as u know because sorc will buff vaziel and magic assist which will get sorc nearly cast speed capped no need for WoQ.
The class need a huge boost because their burst is way too slow for the same amount of damage or even less than classes like gunner. That aside I pretty much agree with your tier list, but i would put gunner in the SS tier due to their massive burstablity and [imo] too great survival tools. AT only A tier? I'm talking about classes at their max "realistic" potential, and that is very much a reality and you will soon see assa whales with that.
Idk why monkey burst classes like gunner and painters get to enjoy free iron skins with almost no cooldown especially painter - and shoutout to Improved Glaze Coating having 18sec cd that resists 3 magic attacks xDDDDD???? The class has 0 survivability compared to every other class in the game rn.
The main problem sorcs have is that they're probably the only class that still needs time to set stuff up instead of just stomping their face on the keyboard to cover silence and burst in secs or just straight up melt you. They just don't really fit in the current state of the game.
I guess NCSoft just told sorcs to f off because painters are the semi-melee sorcs and they wanted to sell it as much as possible. This is why you see actual buffs and changes to other classes while sorcs get no real changes. Imo, from a cloth's pov, chanter is waaaaaay higher than "just" b-tier. The dmg they deal with their improved blind pursuit chain should be lowered alot. Their defensive skills should get nerfed e.
The tier list is not biased at all, its just not based on the current average state of the game but on fights between people who have everything. Bard can litteraly kill a chanter in 1 para combo and have overall way more tools for everything, SM can kill a chanter in 1 fearlock, Chanter is a counter to painter so Improved WoL heals a lot only if you remove WoI, which means doing even less dmg than we already do. Blind pursuit chain does a lot of damage if you are lucky AND if the opponent doesn't know how to use remove shock, otherwise no.
Obviously against average geared players the chanter is A tier, because the healing is stronger if the damages are lower, but that's not the point here, its only temporary, people will get more and more geared. I don't know how this guy can even keep his mental because my head would have exploded from frustration.
It's so sad to see the state of the class because this guy is pretty good but no matter what he does he will just automatically lose unless he gets lucky and crits all his nukes after miraculously surviving while trying to set it up for like seconds For sure just in this patch more than you have ever done in your entire aion experience!
But that s not the topic!! Painter, let cat walk over keyboard, gg. Those threads are hilarious. S tier classes need a decent nerf: - Gunner needs to have his defensive skills nerfed, they have way too many OP tools to survive and those tools have extremely short CD, Green odian cd should be increased to 2mn, aimed hunter eye cd increased to 3mn and duration reduced to 8s, their basic evasion cd increased to 1mn.
A tier classes are mostly fine. C tier aka sorc tier well
