First of all, there are no classes dropping below Tier B. With this said, there is no class that feels bad; some are pretty good, and others are decent. Certain classes are better than others depending on your needs and your game objectives; this is entirely based on how I think these classes develop into the game, starting with the early stages of it till the end game, including farming speeds, damage output, DPS, and more.
Rogue
Rogue has been one of the highest-ranked classes in the game, listed as one of the Tier-S classes. This class dominates from level one to level 100 and is one of the best classes for farming in the endgame. There is one thing to note, however, that this class tends to fall a little bit behind some classes, which is not particularly bad but is worth noting.
His high DPS burst and how you can push your farming limits make this class so good in a lot of aspects, so you might want to try the Rogue class if you have not tried it yet, or the S-Tier class.
Sorcerer
This class is not considered a S-Tier one yet, but tend to be cataloged as a Tier-A class and I agree with that, and even can lower that tier a little bit, there are pretty valid points of weakness with this class, but if we consider that this class has really good crowd-control especially if you go the ice shards build.
And also have a really good output damage, actually if you go more deep it can compete with the Rogue in terms of speed farming, obviously using the right build, if you keep your ice shards with you, you have permanent crit and permanent mana, this class shine in the early stages of the game but later in the game it tend to fall off a bit, so this is why this class cannot go higher in the tier list, Tier-A class.
Barbarian
Another S-Tier class, this one is not very good in the early game, a little bit rough actually, but once you start progressing more and more, this class starts unveiling all his power. Basically, when you get your ultimate power, the Call of the Ancients, it will decimate the early game.
If we compare it to the Sorcerer, this class just cannot compete against the Barbarian, and if we keep looking into the end game, just look at how Whirlwind and Hota can unleash their power in the end game, and I think honestly that this class is pretty easy to use or have the easiest time farming and pushing at the end game pushing, Tier-S class.
Necromancer
There are mixed opinions on this one. Some people seem to be voting for the Necromancer for the higher tiers. However, a larger percentage are voting for the lower tiers. Honestly, this class feels pretty slow and seems required to follow the storyline objectives rather than farming everything.
Its major problems start to appear in World Tier 3 and specifically in World Tier 4. The Necromancer’s crowd control issues severely affect this class more than any other classes in the game. Barbarian, Rogue, Sorcerer – they do not have these kinds of problems.
Weakness
Due to these weaknesses, it is considered a Tier-B class, which significantly affects its progression in the game. One of its strengths is indeed the amount of damage this class can deal. This damage output is probably the best in the game. Therefore, you can progress decently but not at the same speed as with other classes.
Druid
In a solid third place, behind the Rogue, this class wrecks everything in his path later on in the game, especially if you go with the Werewolf Tornado Build. Others, like the Pulverize Build, cannot compete with the Rogue; it was decent but could not keep up with the Rogue, but the Werewolf Tornado is THE build, able to compete with the Rogue and his single-target damage in a lot of scenarios.
They also have way more tank options built into their skills. This class has everything to be very viable and flexible at the same time. The Druid starts unleashing his power at the most needed stage of the game, but there is one point at which this class tends to fall off a bit: his end-game farming speed is lower compared to the Barbarian or Rogue, which is not that bad but still.
Final Thoughts
To summarize, we have the Barbarian as the top one, Rogue coming into the second position, Druid at number three, Sorcerer at number four, and Necromancer with the fifth position. We might even consider Druid a little bit higher than Rogue, but that is just an opinion.
They are both really good classes. If we consider more aspects of the game, we might have seen more changes into the tiers, but this is a pretty decent one. Like I used the Nightmare Dungeons as one of the main points to compare between these classes.
