Last Updated
Game version 1.60.1 beta
Release November 4, 2026
This is a preliminary editorial tier list. The beta stops at level 30, so levels 31 to 60 are a forecast from ability and talent texts. Mounts are not in the beta yet and are not counted. After the game launches on November 4, 2026 we will recheck the letters. Release date and beta
Classes
AFast
Warlock
Level as AfflictionSummon Voidwalker gives a demon that tanks from level 10 and Drain Life turns the target's health into the warlock's from level 14, so downtime is low, but the warlock has no way to move faster.
Summon Voidwalkerlevel 10
Drain Lifelevel 14
Mage
Level as FrostConjure Water removes the cost of drinks from level 4 and Frost Nova freezes a group in place from level 10, so the mage kills packs fast and safely, but cloth armor punishes every mistake.
Conjure Waterlevel 4

Shaman
Level as EnhancementHealing Wave lets the shaman heal between fights from level 1 instead of eating, and Ghost Wolf adds 40% speed outdoors from level 20, the earliest travel speed after the hunter's.

Seal of Lightlevel 30
Pursuit of Justice
Druid
Level as Feral CombatThe druid heals itself from level 1, but kills are slow until Cat Form opens at level 20, travel speed comes only with Travel Form at level 30, and the beta nerfed the druid's starting spell.
Cat Formlevel 20
Travel Formlevel 30
Rogue
Level as CombatThe rogue hits hard in melee and gets Evasion at level 8 and Sprint at level 10 to escape bad pulls, but it cannot heal itself and eats after most fights.
Evasionlevel 8
Sprintlevel 10
Priest
Level as ShadowPower Word: Shield makes the priest hard to kill from level 6 and Spirit Tap doubles Spirit after each kill, so mana lasts, but damage stays low until the shadow form at level 40.
