Re: Black Desert Mobile And Pc
Julio Cesar Thap
The shores of Velia are often littered with countless bodies spawning as players test out the class options available in Black Desert Mobile. The mobile adaptation has expanded its class selection since its launch in 2019, beginning to match the available options on the PC.
Nowadays the classes and their approach to battle are wildly varied, so the best fit for each player depends mainly on personal play style and combat preferences. That being said, where there's proficiency, there's likely a certain amount of deficiency, and each class harbors its specialty which may align perfectly with certain play styles while being an absolute nightmare for others.
Updated on July 7th, 2022 by Kim Dailey: Black Desert Mobile has expanded its class selection from the mere five classes that gave a fair coverage of the wide-ranging battle styles available on the PC to an astounding twenty-three classes since the recent inclusion of the newest class, Drakania. Suffice to say, the choice has been made much harder, leaving us long overdue for an update to catch you up to speed on all the new ways to play.
The Witch begins to toy with class complexities and offers deadly crowd control skills. She can ascend to an Arch Mage or awaken to become an Invoker ever since Ascension and Awakening were implemented in Black Desert Mobile.
The mage class is admittedly a little soft in the armor department, but powerful spells keep enemies at bay. The battle style poses a bit of a learning curve, pairing spells to figure out what skills are most effective together and when. But these class skills come together to form a fluid dance that, when performed properly, is capable of maneuvering and felling enemies like true magic.
The bowman is a straightforward ranged class with a serious style. Swift and agile movers, these bowmen are good at maneuvering from vantage point to vantage point, consistently staking out the high ground and providing critical support to their allies from a safe range. The Archer uses a Crossbow for quick-fire action allowing him to let off more bolts than the Fletcher, who prioritizes his ranged advantage gleaned from his great bow.
The Blade Master takes his title seriously, honing his talents with the blade and horn bow. While the awakened Warlord will trade out for a crescent blade and opt to wave a banner into battle, making him slightly better for crowd control as the Warlord maintains his swiftness trained through martial arts while showing off his mastery of the blade with sweeping strikes that can fell an onslaught single-handedly.
The Corsair is the embodiment of the sea's raw destructive power. She moves with the fluidity of the tide while crashing through enemies like stormy waves with her curved serenaca blade that she lashes through the air like a whip, creating raging walls of water capable of washing out the front lines in one sweep. She can also send out these devastating monsoons from a fair range, ensuring the first strike and the upper hand in most battles.
Drakania is the newest class introduced to Black Desert Mobile on July 5th, 2022. This fully ascended class is truly the best of both worlds, wielding her Slayer, Shard, and her immense draconic power that is amplified by Drakania's devastating AoEs. Whether you enjoy a brutal hack 'n' slash style of combat or like to get caught up in the whimsy of grand maneuvers, Drakania's seemingly simplistic tactics manifest into a dazzling light show that can be easily directed at enemies or unfurl across the entire battlefield and never lose their breathtaking punch. In short, Drakania is the perfect warrior, able to decimate encroaching hordes in a single blast and catch those who are smart enough to try and stay clear of her wingspan.
Well-rounded and probably the most straightforward of the bunch, the Warrior can ascend to become a Gladiator, still equally built for offense and defense. His longsword and shield are great for classic hack and slash damage. Alternatively, an awakened Warrior takes on the role of Berserker, relying on the overwhelming power he can dole out in a flash with his gigantic great sword. With his skill set, the Warrior serves as a staunch ally in multiplayer while making easy work of solo battles.
If anything, the Warrior class suffers from being rather dull. Though his classic methods are dependable, they may not be the best fit for those searching for more complexity or showy battle effects.
The Striker is a highly physical fighter relying on his brawler background and eastern martial arts training to overtake enemies with his physical prowess alone. Of course, this feat is made a little easier using his gauntlet. Still, as he ascends to the level of Grand Master, he becomes a superhumanly powerful and overtly versatile fighter, utilizing a wide range of fighting styles to get the better of his enemy.
The Hashashin is a player favorite that can blast holes in enemy frontlines with his deft manipulation of the desert sands and his trusty Shamshir. With resounding attacks that reverberate off of his initial strikes, the Hashashin is a good choice for causing pandemonium where there had been order among the ranks of his enemies, then making a clean escape from among the chaos. With his stealthy maneuvers and penetrating assaults, the Hashashin is the ultimate supportive role, though he's perfectly capable of handling daunting situations independently.
For players who seek to avoid the thick of battle, the Ranger is the female counterpart to the archer class. Skilled at debuffing enemies from afar, but overcome more easily than other classes if the distance advantage is lost. They make a sly ally but may struggle slightly more than others in solo play.
Ascension to the Huntress sharpens the Ranger's already acute accuracy allowing her to single out her adversaries' weaknesses with ease. However, the Ranger may choose to trade her bow for a Kamasylven Sword and a Feather when she awakens to the swift and graceful Windwalker instead.
The Kunoichi is a fierce yet evasive melee fighter, able to flit around the battlefield, striking at enemies with a hailstorm of assaults and her trusty Kunai while often managing to remain out of harm's way. The Kunoichi is a master of subduing enemies with her powerful debuffs, meaning she can easily weaken or entirely disable the enemy before moving in for a swift kill. She is a fully ascended class that does not have a basic class version the same as the Corsair and Hashashin.
Another swift and highly agile class, the Lahn and Crimson Lily, are both blade-wielding acrobats, though they sport a few key differences. The Lahn class is unique in her ability to glide high through the sky and surprise her enemies with deadly aerial attacks from her pendulum blade.
The Crimson Lily is a silent and deadly killer, wielding a pair of glaives strung together with a chain that itself serves as her sub-weapon. This unique tool allows the Crimson Lily to strike from an extended range, rendering her stealthy strikes all the more effective.
The Maehwa is the female counterpart to the Musa and likewise ascends into the Lotus once she has mastered her archery, martial arts, and swordsmanship training. This is a class with a high accuracy and damage rating that thrives on chaining together combos from her dynamic training.
On the other hand, the awakened Primrose carries a Kerispear and Banner into battle, giving her an outstanding critical rating. The ease in which she flows from strike to strike, carries her through each onslaught, toppling enemies in her wake.
The Lupa is the ascended form of the Tamer class, who travels and fights with the divine beast Heilang by her side at all times. Heilang's support gives this class an unique edge in battle as they coordinate their attacks with one another to become an overwhelming force that few enemies could hope to withstand.
The awakened Spiritwalker has claimed her right as Heilang's true master and therefore wields the beast's divine power along with a Celestial Bo Staff, the combination of which creates a class with untold power.
The Mystic is another combo-driven melee class that calls on the dragon's power to aid her in battle. Powerful moves such as her Dragon Punch utilize the dragon's spirit to decimate enemies and leave them stunned. The Mystic can also regenerate health in this way and incorporates several other buffs or debuffs into her various attacks.
The Nova is truly a force to be reckoned with. This fully ascended class uses a morning star as her choice of weapon. However, she also utilizes an impenetrable shield and the spirits of her royal guards to maximize her versatility on the battlefield.
Eclipse is a powerful crowd controller with attacks that strike multiple times in succession and provide a slew of various debuffs to incapacitate the enemy, making them easy targets. With so many ways to attack, both sub-divisions of this class make for hard-to-read adversaries, giving them yet another advantage against enemies.
The fiercely proud Valkyrie may ascend to the title of Paladin and is well-versed in both offensive and defensive battle tactics, though they're predisposed to close-quarter combat. She can deal massive damage but also harbors an extensive repertoire of buffs and regeneration skills for supporting allies. The awakened Lancer trades her sword for a lance, naturally, although her role remains the same; break through the enemy frontlines all while providing first defense for her weaker allies.
With a skill set derived for tactical support, the Valkerie is ideal for co-op play and will prove invaluable in raids. Her ability to inflict heavy damage when adventuring alone allows the Paladin to ensure her survival.
The Sorceress is a conjurer of dark magic and makes use of both ranged and melee tactics. This devilish lady ascends to become the Raven or awakens as the Reaper, and both are more foreboding than the dark enchantress.
The Raven continues the Sorceress's work with her Amulet and Talisman, conjuring more destructive magic and enshrouding her enemies before they even know she's there. The Reaper unlocks the true potency of the Sorceress's dark magic and adopts a more tangible fighting style, picking up a scythe to complete her morbid persona.
