Balanced Classes.

[Kolsake]

Which classes seem the most balanced at this point in time?

I'm hoping Royalty is more of a overall, balanced, hybrid type of Class.
Meaning, is Royalty good in PvE and PvP all the same with certain builds, skills, etc?

Also, which classes can primarily heal themselves; have good heals?

And 1 more question: Which class is more "tanker" efficient? I'm thinking Beggars Alliance, Shaolin, or Taoist.

I don't know much about royalty, sorry x.X

But um the only class that can heal itself is Lotus Order, they have 3 different types of heals (1 target heal, group heal, and heal over time) However only the first one of the 3 is any good in my opinion x.X The other ones don't heal that much...even the first one doesnt do as much as it should if its the only heal (imo) =/

I think Shaolin is considered the best tanker class while Beggars is pretty balanced in defense and attack. Taoist's arent tankers.

PS- check out the class forums. People have alot of threads comparing the classes. I think it'll be helpful for you in choosing your char :)

Royalty is most balanced, being both Magic and Physical. I've heard they aren't that bad in PvP, and as far as PvE, they have low damage being both M/P but higher hit. Full Sta or Agi builds is what I've seen mostly.

Yes, Shaolin is physical tank class. High stamina meaning more hp and physical defense.
Beggar is balanced physical with high evasion.
Taoist is Magic damage dealer.
Lotus only one that can heal.

I know T.T I feel so pitiful trying to heal people and seeing their hp only go up 10% lol

Also though its not widely known Beggars do have an attack with a chance to heal themselves thats actually pretty substantial. It procs about one in 3 times and can heal 1/5th to 1/4th of their health. With their natural evasion, they can stay pretty topped off as far as health goes. Voodoo also has a channeled skill that heals themselves while damaging enemies, but its heal is nothing to write home about, only about 200hp heal if it goes the full 8 sec.

Royalty is basically the jack of all Trades, master of None. They have to be balanced in everything to be good, reason being is that every other attack for royalty is Physical, then Spiritual. So if a Royalty does one over the other they will eventually hit less. Its like seeing a balanced pet like the Donkey, they have a full line of talents that are not focused on one thing but all the same. So if you chose Royalty be sure to add all stats equally and you will be fine. As for PvP to PvE, all classes are good in both just matters how you build them and how your play style is. No class is better in one than the other, only the players are.

Lotus is the only class with heal skills, except the Voodoo which has a Mp to Hp skill if im not mistaken unless it is the otherway around might be HP > MP.

Beggars Alliance are not really tanks they are more the Agi / Reflex Phy attackers. Though I guess if you boost their reflexes up really high then maybe.

Shaolin is your tank class, crap for attack but all meat shield. They have the highest PHY def and HP in the game.

Taoist, never ever chose Taoist to be a tank. They are very weak in DEF and have the LOWEST HP in the game. The Taoists are basically backup DD specialists. They can give a mean beating but if they agro oh man watch the HP drop.
