Crystal of Atlan is filled with stunning visuals, flashy skills, and smooth combat. But picking the right class early on can make a big difference. There are five base classes and 11 subclasses, each bringing something different to the table. Some are great at supporting the team, others love to get up close and deal big damage, and a few can control the battlefield with crowd control skills.
If you are stuck at the class selection screen, this tier list should help. We¡¯ve broken it down into two parts ¨C one for PvE and another for PvP ¨C so you can pick the perfect class depending on how you want to play. This is the most updated Crystal of Atlan tier list for May 2025.
Crystal of Atlan PvE tier list
?If you love grinding dungeons, soloing mobs, or clearing group content, PvE will matter most. Here¡¯s how the classes rank for that:
Top Tier (T0)
- Warlock ¨C The best solo class for PvE. Has high damage, lifesteal, and crowd control. Can clear content alone with ease.
- Scytheguard ¨C Great for group content. Supports the team with heals and buffs, but also deals good damage.
- Elementalist ¨C Massive AoE and elemental damage. Works best in a party, but very squishy.
Strong Tier (T1)
- Gunner ¨C Good balance of AoE and single-target damage. Great at breaking shields.
- Bounty Hunter ¨C Fast, mobile, and powerful. Can kite enemies easily and works well solo or in a party.
- Magiblade ¨C High mobility and solid DPS over time. Great for solo play but takes time to master.
- Cloudstrider ¨C Has a mix of skills for every situation. Slightly hard to play and doesn¡¯t survive hits well.
Average Tier (T2)
- Blademaiden ¨C Big burst damage and good kiting. But long cooldowns and weak boss damage hold her back.
- Magician ¨C Can do a bit of everything but very hard to play. Other DPS classes are easier and more effective.
Low Tier (T3)
- Starbreaker ¨C Has burst and can tank, but long cooldowns and low sustained DPS hurt in PvE.
- Berserker ¨C Needs low HP to shine, which makes him risky. Works better in PvP than in PvE.
Crystal of Atlan PvP tier list
?PvP in Crystal of Atlan is mostly 1v1, so it all comes down to combos, movement, and damage. Here¡¯s how the classes rank in May 2025:
Top Tier (T0)
- Berserker ¨C Easy to play and very strong. Invincibility makes him deadly in duels.
- Bounty Hunter ¨C Fast, hard to catch, and all his skills are tough to dodge. Perfect for PvP.
- Magician ¨C Balanced, tricky, and full of combos. One of the best PvP classes, but very hard to master.
Strong Tier (T1)
- Starbreaker ¨C Burst-focused and easy to use. Great melee fighter in PvP.
- Scytheguard ¨C Tanky with good damage. Can¡¯t match the top PvP picks but holds her own.
- Cloudstrider ¨C Fast and flashy, but needs skill and has low defense.
- Magiblade ¨C Excellent burst and mobility. Hard to master but strong in the right hands.
Average Tier (T2)
- Gunner ¨C Good damage and range. But once enemies get close, things fall apart.
- Warlock ¨C Solid crowd control and combos. Still, some classes are just easier and more powerful.
Low Tier (T3)
- Blademaiden ¨C Cool skills and damage, but poor mobility and long cooldowns make PvP tough.
- Elementalist ¨C Very weak in 1v1. Long casting time and low mobility are a big problem.
What each Class specialises in Crystal of Atlan
?Each base class has its own feel, and subclasses unlock at level 15. You can switch subclasses until level 45. Once you hit Awakening, you¡¯re locked in. Here¡¯s what each one does best:
- Musketeer ¨C Turns into Gunner or Bounty Hunter. Great at ranged damage and very mobile.
- Fighter ¨C Becomes Cloudstrider or Starbreaker. Cloudstrider is fast and combo-heavy. Starbreaker is bursty and easier to use.
- Swordsman ¨C Offers Magiblade and Berserker. Magiblade is smooth but tricky. Berserker is simple and brutal.
- Puppeteer ¨C Unlocks Scytheguard and Blademaiden. Scytheguard supports teams. Blademaiden fights from range and uses a companion.
- Magister ¨C Has Warlock and Magician. Warlock is self-sustaining and powerful in PvE. Magician is the hardest class but super flexible
