Choose a role before a ranking

Templar anchors groups, Gladiator mixes durability and damage, Assassin rewards close-range timing, and Ranger applies ranged pressure. Sorcerer focuses on burst magic, Spiritmaster on summons and control, Cleric on direct healing, and Chanter on hybrid support.

  • Pick Templar if you want responsibility and durability
  • Pick Ranger for mobile ranged damage
  • Pick Cleric if group access matters more than solo speed
  • Pick a DPS class if you prefer simpler party expectations

Global balance can change the recommendation

Korea and Taiwan rankings reflect their current patches, gear and latency. Use them to understand class identity, not as a permanent global launch tier list.

Frequently asked questions

What is the easiest Aion 2 class for beginners?

Can both factions use the same classes?

The core class choices are available across Elyos and Asmodians, while faction changes story and world context.
