Lost Ark – what class should I pick?

If you’re coming into Lost Ark from another MMO or action RPG, you may be leaning towards a class that fits an archetype you are already familiar with. While each of the five classes have their own set of subclasses, each with its own differences and intricacies, they all share a general class identity that will appeal to a certain type of player.

These classes are:

Warrior – slow and melee focused. This class can either specialize into having amazing damage output with the Berserker, a tanky DPS as the Gunlancer, or act as a DPS / support hybrid as a Paladin.
Martial Artist – another melee class but with an emphasis on faster movement and dealing damage.
Gunner – your dedicated ranged class, the Gunner is all about dishing out blows from afar.
Mage – the dedicated magic class! Mage players are able to make use of mystical powers to take enemies out in their droves.
Assassin – Another melee DPS like the Striker, the Assassin is all about quick and devastating combos that can eliminate monsters quickly and with ease.

When will NA, EU, UK, and others get the missing Lost Ark classes?

The missing Lost Ark classes will hopefully be added during 2022. There isn’t yet a confirmed Lost Ark roadmap that includes the new classes. Hopefully the developer can provide an updated roadmap soon so that players who are waiting to try out the Destroyer, Artist, and other classes can add the release date to their calendars.

In the meantime, players still have a good number of classes to try out. There are already a lot of characters to master. That should hopefully fill the time between now and the new classes being released.

This post will be updated with any new information regarding the new Lost Ark classes. Here’s hoping players won’t have to wait too long for more info!

Sorceress. The Sorceress class is one of the most reliable classes you can choose to play in Lost Ark. With an excellent range in both PvE and PvP, really high amounts of damage that is relatively easy to dish out, and an easy to grasp kit; you can never go wrong with the Sorceress.
