Ranking Every Class In Atlyss

Key Takeaways

Fighter excels in brute strength and durability, ideal for close combat and tanking hits.
Mystic focuses on flashy magic attacks, but lacks durability and needs mana management.
Bandit offers speed, agility, and trickery, requiring timing and positioning skills for success.

When you dive into Atlyss, one of the first big decisions you’ll face is choosing your class. You’ll choose from different races, each with unique abilities—Imps, Humans, and Kubolds, to name a few. But, it’s your class that determines how you’ll approach combat, exploration, and teamwork.

Atlyss: 8 Beginner Tips

Get the best start possible in Atlyss.

Fighters thrive on raw power, Mystics harness magic, and Bandits rely on agility and stealth. The Novice class, while basic, gives you a glimpse of your potential. Every class influences your playstyle, from tanking hits to casting spells or striking quickly. Today, we’re ranking the classes to see which stands out (and which suits you best).

1

Fighter

The Fighter takes the top spot for one simple reason: it’s reliable. It’s all about brute strength and durability. You can take hits, deal damage, and hold your ground when things get tough. Plus, if you finally master heavy melee weapons, you can deliver devastating blows that can turn the tide of battle.

Special Skills

Skills	Description
Stomp	Slows and damages enemies around you. Great for crowd control.
Blood Gush	Inflicts bleeding damage over time.
Shield Bash	Stuns enemies with a powerful shield strike.
Cyclone	Throws a weapon like a boomerang, hitting multiple enemies.
Rage	Temporarily increases your attack power.

Skills like Stomp and Cyclone make crowd control a breeze, while Shield Bash gives you the ability to stun pesky enemies. And when you activate Rage, you’ll feel unstoppable.

If you’re a fan of close combat and charging fearlessly into action, you should definitely go the Fighter route. It’s durable, powerful, and pretty easy to get accustomed to.

Speed and range aren’t the Fighter’s strong suits. If you’re up against enemies who like to kite, you might feel a little slow and clunky. But hey, that’s what teammates are for!

Mystic

This class is perfect for players who like to plan their attacks and look flashy with a snazzy scepter. Mystics are all about magic—big, flashy, damage-dealing magic. Skills like Fluxbolt and Fluxspear let you hit hard from afar, while Nova and Blink give you tools to control the battlefield and escape danger. You can even buff yourself and your team with Imbue, making you an asset in group fights.

Special Skills

Skills	Description
Fluxbolt	Fires an explosive magic projectile.
Blink	Teleports you a short distance, great for escaping danger.
Imbue	Enhances your magic power and mana pool.
Nova	Creates a ring of magic that pushes back enemies.
Manaflow	Boosts your mana regeneration, keeping you casting longer.

Atlyss: How To Unlock All Classes

There are three classes for your character in Atlyss, and you need to complete some requisites before finding them. Learn about them here!

Durability is the Mystic’s weak spot. If you’re caught off guard, you won’t last long. Plus, you’ll need to keep an eye on your mana—you don’t want to run out mid-fight. But with practice, these weaknesses become manageable.

3

Bandit

If you like speed, agility, and a bit of trickery, the Bandit might just be your new favorite class. This one is all about being clever—poisoning enemies with Venom Shot, sneaking around with Mist Veil, or setting traps to catch foes off guard. Bandits are the definition of hit-and-run tactics, striking when the time is right and disappearing before the enemy knows what hit them.

Special Skills

Skills	Description
Venom Shot	Fires a poisonous projectile that damages enemies over time.
Mist Veil	Turns you invisible, letting you sneak up on enemies or escape danger.
Killer Jab	Reduces enemy defense and movement speed with a powerful strike.
Bomb Trap	Sets a trap that explodes when triggered by enemies.
Pay Day	Stuns enemies and makes them drop currency.

The Bandit isn’t for everyone. It’s a more advanced class that relies heavily on timing and positioning. If you’re not quick on your feet, you might struggle.

Plus, while the Bandit has great tools for dealing with enemies, it lacks the raw power of the Fighter or the sheer range of the Mystic. But for players who love a challenge, the Bandit is incredibly rewarding.

Novice

The Novice class isn’t technically a “class” in the same way the others are. It’s basically a tutorial phase where you learn the ropes of the game before you’re presented with all the exciting class choices. It has a few skills that help keep you alive, like healing and teleportation—really nothing fancy. However, what makes it special is that your racial skills give you a little taste of your potential future.

Special Skills

Skills	Description
Recall	Teleports you back to a safe zone (Sanctum) and leaves a portal for a quick return.
Recovery	Restores health over time, but it stops working if you take a hit.
Rock Toss	Deals small damage by throwing a rock. Useful when you’re just starting.
Racial Skills	Each race gets its own unique skill. For example, Imps have Siphon Leech for health stealing.
