What character should i choose ?

  • Hello, i was wondering if reaper is a good character.
    I asked some friends telling me that is a strong character but i'm not sure of it.


    Which character is good?
    I have made a warrior but i would make an other one like magic that heal, but what i have to choose then?


    Just asking what character is ''Good enough'' at all.
    I know that each character is good when a player know how to use it.


    So...


    1. What character is easier to use?
    2. Which one is ''stronger''?


    Thanks ! :elin37:

  • If you want to use Magic to DPS - Sorcerer is the only choice you have.
    If you want to use Magic to heal - Mystic or Priest are the only 2 choices for you.
    Something in between does not exist anymore.


    As for the rest it depends on you personal taste:
    Melee or Ranged? Tank or DPS (you mentioned Reaper so i just take DPS as a given from now on).
    Is your focus gameplay-wise on PvE or PvP? Or do u want to have a decent experience in both? (You are from Mystel so i take PvE as a given from now on).


    Most of the times when someone is asking for an easy to use class with a good amount of DPS -> Archer is kind of a no-brainer.
    When you get the hang out of it you can deal a good amount of damage while being in a safer distance to the boss to not get hit so many times from melee mechanics (advantage if you dont know anything about boss behaviour at all).
    Warrior is a higher tier DPS. The DMG potential is pretty high if you are experienced enough but drops off by alot if you dont know what you are doing. It requires some practice and patience.
    Valkyrie is the current top tier DPS. Valkyrie is the newest and most powerful class in Tera. The idea about gaining stacks to finish off with a finishing skill is kinda similar to warrior. This class also has a CDR Skill comparable to Deadly Gamble (Warrior). As mentioned in the Warrior part: If you dont know what you are doing you will not deal (that much) DMG at all.
    Berserker is also a very strong DPS. He uses charging skills to deal his DMG. He also can block some DMG and has the toughest armor of all melee DPS classes. He deals alot more DMG the lower his HP are. This opens some kind of gameplay that is NOT recommended for newcomers.
    Gunner got buffed just recently. I dont rly have that much of a clue about Gunners so i leave that for someone else. All i can say is that this class is a decent DPS when you are capable of handling the rotations properly.
    Sorcerer is the only real DPS Mage in Tera. Sorcerer is considered one of the harder classes to master. Decent DMG.
    Whats left is Ninja, Slayer and Reaper. Currently the less popular classes in PvE Tera.
    Slayer received a buff just recently aswell. The highest DMG potential is (yet again) comparable to Berserker and because of that not recommended for newcomers. The bad part is that without it this class is not very powerful. It can deal some nice DMG if you put some effort into it. But the Profit / Effort ratio is kina... meh :D
    Ninja was top DPS in VM7 when this class got released. After all the classes got buffed Ninja fell off quite fast. Takes alot of effort for low profit. But if you like it.
    Reaper was a recommendation from one of your friends. Same as Gunner: no clue, but less powerful than other classes.


    But whats important is that YOU have to play a class that is giving you the feeling that its enjoyable.

  • Gunner is also a magic dps.
    But this class is more difficult to "master" than with Sorcerer.


    Yea, I have tried that and its not my '' style '' very difficult to use

  • But this class is more difficult to "master" than with Sorcerer.

    riiight


    Play what you like is the only answer. If you play with friends check what they play so you two dont have the same heal in party :D. I think that is the only thing you should watch out for.

  • Gunner is also a magic dps.
    But this class is more difficult to "master" than with Sorcerer.

    False info. Gunner is an easier class overall than sorc, also easier to master.


    Play which class you find more fun. Ignore any other factor.
