Overall Balance Design

In general, this mod is intended to allow classes to excel at certain things, while nerfing/removing abilities that are so good, they make the entire game and the challenges within it pointless (such as mystic spearhand’s invulnerability shield). Class roles and what they are intended to be good at are as follows:

Fighter

S Tier - Tanking & Provoking

A Tier - Climbing DPS / Elemental Weakspot DPS / Physical DPS

B Tier - Mobility / Knockdown

S Tier - Ranged Physical DPS

A Tier - Mobility / AOE DPS / AOE Offensive Utility / Physical Weakspot DPS

B Tier - Offensive Utility

S Tier - Healing / (AOE) Offensive & Defensive Utility / Holy AOE DPS

A Tier - Elemental (AOE) DPS / Mobility / Survivability

S Tier - (Climbing) Physical Weakspot DPS / Mobility

A Tier - Offensive Utility / Survivability / Melee DPS

B Tier - Elemental DPS

S Tier - Knockdown / Static Physical DPS

A Tier - Climbing Weakspot DPS / Physical AOE DPS / Tanking & Provoking / Survivability

B Tier - Utility

S Tier - Ranged (AOE) Elemental DPS / Untyped (AOE) magic DPS

A Tier - Utility / Mobility

Mystic Spearhand

S Tier - Mobility

A Tier - Physical DPS / Magical DPS / Physical Weakspot DPS / Defensive Utility / Environment Usage

Magick Archer

S Tier - Elemental & Untyped magic DPS / Elemental Weakspot DPS

A Tier - Defensive Utility / Elemental (AOE) DPS

B Tier - Offensive Utility
