Thinking of doing some juicy damage? Do you ever wish that you had enough HP to survive a blow from the dreaded Orange Mushroom? Look no further and try out one of the Warrior Classes today! These beefcakes can pack a punch while taking all the heat of the battle at the same time. Having the most base HP out of the classes and having an array of defensive skills at their disposal, they can handle quite a beating. That being said, all that heavy armour they wear make them pretty sluggish. They aren’t exactly the most agile or elegant fighters on the battlefield but their defensive abilities and devastating attacks make up for it.

To help you decide, I have made a list of all the available warrior classes and a little summary for each. Just keep in mind that just because one class is more popular than another, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you will like them too! Pick a class that well suits your play style instead. You’ll enjoy the game a lot more 😛

Hero

Heroes utilize a unique combat system which requires the player to focus on their combo stacks while attacking at the same time. They can either wield 2-handed axes and swords or their 1-handed variant with a shield.

What they bring to the table: They have good consistent DPS, great mobbing, great bossing potential, an attack boosting party buff, meh mobility.

Play Style: Close quarters combat either dealing massive 1 on 1 damage or multi-targets.

Final Notes: Heroes have a good bossing potential with their Enrage skill while still possessing a good mobbing ability. However, they may get repetitive since they only have 1 main bread and butter skill; Raging Blow. This skill only hits 5 times (6 with hyper skill) and may bottleneck future DPS.

Notable Skills: Raging Blow, Valhalla

Each class, or job, will have their unique set of skills. Cygnus Knights Explorers Heroes Resistance. This is unfortunate because it is by far my most favourite class in terms of the visual and theme of Shade. The spirits and color hues are totally my style!! On the other hand, the utility Shade has is INSANE! Soul Splitter alone is awesome for increasing damage to the whole party. It works similar to Illaoi E from League of Legends. MapleStory Cannoneer Skill Build Guide. Cannoneer is an Explorer pirate that was released in the MapleStory Legends update in 2011. Cannoneer doesn't follow typical pirate job advancements, instead the class must be created directly from th. Maplestory is one of the oldest MMORPGs out there. It was released back in April of 2003 and gone through several major updates since then. Furthermore, a plethora of new classes has been added to the game throughout the years, bringing the total number of classes to more than 40 classes.

Dark Knight

Dark Knights have many offensive buffs and attacks that rely on their massive health pool to inflict tons of damage. They can wield polearms and spears.

Play Style: Up-in-your-face attacker that does concentrated multi line hitting attacks or good multi targeted attacks.

Final Notes: When bossing, Dark Knight’s heavily rely on the buff, Sacrifice, to ignore the cooldown on their bossing skill, Gungnir’s Descent. This means that when Sacrifice is on cooldown their DPS suffers a bit. That being said, they have the ability to out DPS most classes.

Notable Skills: Gungnir’s Descent, Dark Synthesis

Paladin

Paladins are a must have in any party due to their useful buffs they bring to the party. They can take hits far better than any other class while still being able to dish out modest damage.

Play Style: They are close quarters combatants that use flashy skills to quickly clear waves of enemies.

Final Notes: This class has some of the best looking skill animations in the game but is lacking a bit in the multi-line hitting department. If you like seeing many lines pop up every time you attack, you might be a little underwhelmed by this guy. However if you really like big cool animations and combos, this class is for you. They are a blast to play!

Final Notes: Hayato are a fun class to play because of how many ways there are to combo chain skills one after another.

They are a little hard to understand and control at first but as you get in the hang of it, they become super efficient mobbers and are able to devastate bosses with their combos. They are front line attackers with many skills that can affect a large area.

Final Notes: Zeros are capable of pumping out veeeery high damage for having not many funds. They are able to solo many bosses easily because of all the utilities they possess and DPS output. They also have a really interesting storyline, but you are kinda forced to follow it until Lv 180 (kinda a turnoff for many people…oh and they start at Lv 100!). These guys are the most fun class that I’ve ever played while looking bomb af (there might be some bias here hehe).
