Crystal of Atlan has just had its Global Release and players are already grinding their characters to make them as strong as possible. It is in your best interest to make your character as strong as possible, especially for the PvP aspect of the game. This is where selecting the right class for your character can play an important role – especially if you are only interested in engaging with PvP content. So, in this guide, we’ll be going over the best PvP classes so you can use them for the Global Release. Without further delay, let’s dive into it!
Best PvP Classes
The Global Release for Crystal of Atlan has only recently come out with only 11 classes initially available. As a result, the PvP meta has still not been established in the new servers.
This is why we will be referring to the meta in China servers to get an idea of how good the classes are – especially since they had more classes available.
Additionally, you also need to keep in mind that the best PvP class for you will depend on whether you are a free to player or are willing to invest real money. This is why you might want to refer to our which class is right for you guide.
Magician
In Season 1 of the Crystal of Atlan eSports, the Magician was one of the top picks. Since the global release of the game is relatively new, it is possible that the Magician might be a part of the meta.
The reason for this is that the Magician offers a lot of control. You can make enemies sleep and hex them allowing you to control them according to your needs. On top of that, his unique gimmick allows him to unleash abilities with cards that come on screen.
These cards are random and you cannot control which of them come up. This means that you will need to have a lot of skill to use this class. However, in the right hands, you can unleash havoc on other PvP players because of the options available to you!
The right way to use the cards is to proc other card abilities so that you can complete combos. However, if you do not use the cards properly, then you’ll be in trouble!
Starbreaker
Starbreaker is another solid pick that was prevalent in Season 2 of the Crystal of Atlan eSports. Since this eSports is much more recent, this can be a better indication of how things might go in the Global Release.
Starbreaker might seem like a slower character, but she can do a lot of damage in bursts. She relies a lot on raw power and doing singular but powerful attacks.
Her unique gimmick is that she has a power meter that fills up when she uses skills. You can use one full section of the bar to increase the damage dealt by an ability.
Additionally, you can pull of some really powerful air combos that can prevent enemies from countering you. However, learning these air combos can require a bit of skill to master.
Since she is a bit more straightforward, you might find her much easier to use compared to the magician if you’re just starting out.
Scytheguard
The Scytheguard is your go to support when it comes to PvP in Crystal of Atlan. She not only offers defensive support but can also provide healing. As a result, it is considered one of the best classes, not just for PvP, but also for PvE.
The only issue with her is that she not the best when it comes to DPS. She can certainly do a lot of damage up close, but is limited in that department. So, you will need to use gears, pets and other items to balance out this weakness of hers.
If you’re someone who likes the support style of play, look no further than this class!
Berserker
Just like Starbreaker, Berserker is more of a slow and methodical class. He has moves with long windups which do devastating damage.
On top of that, his main gimmick is that he can replace his health with a shield. Low health allows the Berserker to deal more damage, which is super strong in PvP. By strategically using your health, you can devastate your opponent out of nowhere.
Additionally, the Berserker has the ability to also fight for his life and stay alive longer when he’s about to die. You can use this to surprise opponents. PvP players often find this mechanic super frustrating to face which is good for you!
On top of that, this class works very well with super armors making him desirable for PvP content.
Elementalist
If you’re a free to play player, the Elementalist is a super solid option for you when playing PvP in Crystal of Atlan. He is one of the safest classes to use, offering solid range, mobility and AoE damage. This makes him the best caster in the game too.
On top of that, you can also cycle through different elemental skills giving you lots of options.
His main gimmick is that he can reduce his cooldowns by a large amount. Cooldowns can play a huge role in PvP fights, especially towards the end. This is why many players tend to invest in outfits, gears and pets to reduce cooldowns.
However, by utilizing his cooldown reduction, you won’t have to rely on other items which will require insane amounts of grinding or real money. He is one of the most balanced classes you can use.
That’s everything you need to know for the best PvP classes in Crystal of Atlan. Now, you should have a good idea of which class to use whether it is free to play or using real money. Keep in mind that the eSports recommendations are useful if you use real money, so that you can get the best items possible to complement them. As a free to play player, you might not find as much use for them!
