Hello I would like to know what the best class in your opinion for TW and PvE is. I care nothing for PvP out side of TW. What build that class would use would be helpful to know also.

TW - Psy/Wiz.
PvE - Sin.
Note: sin is as usefull in TW as wiz/psy are useful in PvE____________
I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it.

So which class would be better for both, not just one.0 -
Why worry about these kinds of things?
The best class is the one you enjoy playing. Play it slow, don't powerlevel, and don't worry what anyone else tells you to be. Just find your favorite class, take a few pointers from what others do with that class, and carve out a playstyle you can have fun with.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Yes, I'm still a stubborn holdout in favor of the old game. Haters gonna hate. ;]

I say both barbarian and blademaster for both TW/PvE. If built right a barbarian is useful in both aspects. Then again any class (except assassin cause they aren't to good in TW overall) can be useful in TW and PvE if you know what you're doing regarding both.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0

Cleric0

Seekers for PvE imo0

Before I can answer you, you've got to be more specific as far as your playstyle and what you hope to accomplish. Also, do you prefer solo playstyle or squad/faction based? Do you like tanking, DD'ing, healing, or a combination? Do you like to attack from range, attack with magic, or attack with melee? I'm asking because what works for me may not work for you, so please give more detail so that I might better answer your question.
I'll say this much...
PVE wise: It depends on what your goals are, and your playstyle.
Tw: Clerics, and barbs in particular are very well liked in TW, and are very important members of it.
Sins, Wizards, Psys, Archers tend to be the main damage dealers there due to their insanely high crit rate, or their insanely high Dph.
Excuse my ignorance for the other classes and their functions in TW. I've never been in TW, let alone a faction myself.
Also, all classes can be used in pve, so again...that depends on your playstyle, and that's why you're getting mixed answers. I love my cleric for its healing, buffs, purify, and decent attack power. Others may love sins for their high attack power, bp, and speed. Others may love barbs for their high defense, high hp, and speed. The list goes on, and each class has a reason to like them for pve and tw alike.
I'll answer you again once you give more info...however I'd say regardless, pick something that you like. You'll play it better, and have more fun with it. That's what matters."Male Player using female toon. Please don't flirt with me."

Cleric will be wanted for both pve and TW. Seekers also look good for TW (haven't tried it yet) and are great for large portions of pve. Barbs too, BMs to a lesser extent in TW but more in pve. But play whatever class you enjoy most and **** the rest who say otherwise.0

Gonna put a shout out there for archers:
-One of the main killers in TW along with wiz and psy
-Continuous zhen aoe skill for RB and other instances along with wiz and seeker
-5.0 aps with similar damage to BM and Barb (but no HF or BP)
-Has 4-5 metal attacks for caster nirv or other phys immune / resistant targets
Archer has high gear requirements to be good in those fields though, higher than other classes. The lack of good self buffs is somewhat mitigated these days by the ready supply of event pills and base buffs. With the right gear though there is almost nothing an archer can't do.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

BMs, Clerics, Barbs (*note* not best in PVE at high levels), or Archers.
BMs - You're the bread and butter of a Farming Squad, and very useful in TW even if you may not kill a lot and be killed often.
Cleric - You will basically never be denied a squad as a cleric, people always need healers and the more the merrier. TW is similar people need 1 cleric per every squad so they keep their TW factions stacked. Sins will spam target you as well as archers so learning how to survive is essential.
Barbs - Every squad wants a barb, even if they don't need it. HP buff, Devour, and Phys Damage buff are useful. Barbs also can "save the day" by out tanking a boss if squad wipes and are nice for pulling mobs. In TW Barbs give HP buff and then go prey on squishies with Arma etc, most factions are short on barbs.
Archers - It's hard to find an FCC squad on Archers, but most other squads will take you. They might insist you be APS build. It's fairly easy to get into a TW faction on one as they are great ranged DDs BUT the faction might have too many of them to put you in a TW often. Archer is the new black.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

Well, I have a Psy, and, while at earlier levels dies easily if your not careful, they are very good for beating opponents in any situation, if built right. The higher your level, the more damage you are able to do, and also, the easier it is to survive against lower/equal level mobs/players. They are also capable of tanking some instances, if you do the right build.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

I have to admit that I'm curious as to why you don't feel that they are good for PvE. I've seen several seekers that are marvelous at PvE. Heck, when I was still doing quests for XP, me and a real good seeker friend of mines would squad up, and complete our quests. I'm kind of curious as to why you don't think that they are PvE capable.

94 Sage Veno
85 Psy/80 Mystic
And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.
*Pre RB level0 -
well here is all abt all classes
Cleric - Impotent roll in TW / PVE but for nirvana and some TTs no one take clerics due to BM/Sin can solo it with BP. so its hard to make fast coins with cleric i mean hard for good pve thing.
Archer - The Best fire dmg dealer in TW, fun class, as well as PVE with archer is hard, archers cant take BP and cant deal good dmg with claw/fist with aps so hard to get nirvana / TT sqad. good for AoE things like GV/FC
Brab - Most Impotent class for TW as Cata Puller, bt hard to PVE , bt if u have 11 buffs / skills u can find nirvana sqad easy.
Veno - usefull in TW, same as barb if u have 11 AMP ,debuff skills its easy to find nirvana sqad for farm
Sin - well really not good fun for TW, but for farm this is the best class
Psy - Good for TW, good dmg dealer but not good for PVE
Mystic - i dnt think this class is not impotent for TW or PVE
Seeker - Good for AOE things, bt not good enough for TW, PVE
Wiz - the most fun class in TW, its awsome dmg dealer, but hard to farm with it
BM- The Most fun class i ever played, this class is good for TW and every PVE instance need BM, BM can do any thing in this game, nice dmg dealer , nice defense, nice AoE skills, nice stun skills, and with BP BM can solo any thing. b:pleased[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

If you're going to insist on doing that stupid '0' thing in every post, at least do it right. b:sweat[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
I don't play a BM really, but for PvE and TW I think they're probably one of the better classes. You can go APS for farming high level instances and axes for TW.
Another less stated class is venos, they're very needed in TW for their debuffs and purge as well as in PvE, not only can you solo most stuff low level with pets, but you're wanted in Nirvana for purge/amp as well as in TTs, especially with sage soul degen and amp to make the bosses die quicker. (Not so easy to get into RB squads though)0 -

Well I'm not spending any real money on this game. As for ingame money just concider me poor got 2m at the most. Don't mind the money though I don't mind, I decided to go Fox HA/AA veno even though I knew it was super expencive. (Think its the most expencive class to build in the game.) I dont mind pricey builds but don't expect them to be done right away.0 -
The most expensive class in the game is full rank 9 +12 JoSD anything, and also the most wanted for TW....... It's great in PvE too, but hey, who needs PvE when you already beat the game?.......
lol[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
mm... then 5.0 is also kinda pricey tooCarefulIBite - Raging Tide wrote: »Well I'm not spending any real money on this game. As for ingame money just concider me poor got 2m at the most.

(bm/sin/archer)
if i had to generalize id pick BM or cleric as 'best' just cause these classes are like in the median. They of course can excel alot if u spend money, but they also are wanted alot in tw or pve on average. jus my perspective.

Aside from BM and Cleric, Mystic can be another option especially since its new skills are very support oriented.0
