Hello, I am new here and will start playing this game when it goes OBT, such being the case, I would like to know if there is any class combination that has crowd control, decent DPS and a bit tanky, at least won’t die fast. and also if anyone got any thread that has many class described, can pls post the link here? Thank you.
You want CC, DPS, and a little bit of tankiness.
Mages have classes that offer CC and DPS, but definitely not tankiness.
Clerics offer survivability, DPS, and anti-cc but not CC.
Archers offer DPS and some utility, but no tankiness or real CC.
Swordsman offer utility, tankiness and some DPS, but no strong CC.
It’s a hard to give you a build that you’d enjoy.
If you want high CC and DPS:
Go either Cryo 3 or Chrono 3, but not both, psychokino might be interesting now too. Mix in either Linker or DPS mages such as warlock, feather foot, elements list, pyromancer.
It’s hard to really get all 3 of the things you want imo.

Dievdirbys is a good option, I always tend to forget it because of how poorly it performed before kOBT. It’s actually great now.
It’s strong point is definitely not DPS, but being a cleric means survivability, and Dievdirbys can bring in some CC, albeit limited to a small area and takes some time to perform.
You can easily supplement it with DPS classes such as Druid, Krivis, Plague Doctor (which could be interesting if you have a few statues going and then incinerate), etc.
If you consider complete damage mitigation the same as CC this is my safety build.
Basic idea is you don’t need CC if you’re making people immune to damage. Only problem is some status effects can still effect you. And monsters with reversi can steal your grass or safety walls.
But basically you get 3 types of immunity Safety Wall (40 attacks), Statue of Goddess Ausrine (30 statue duration, 18 second immunity, but you have to walk around it), and Sterea Trofh (10 second duration safety wall effect).
You have damage with Owl Statues, Carnivory. So you’re soloing to level is going to be pretty meh.
I’ve kind of been going back and forth between doing that build… And forgoing the a couple Diev levels and using possession instead from SadhuC2. That means giving up the cool safety wall statue, silence statue, or owls though. But you get possession which is a high damage channeled stun from what I understand (need to verify that it isn’t just a root). Although it can be interrupted.
Edit: I’ll add that… it’s a lot more awesome if you’re partied with a chronomancer… Because of the Pass skill you’ill just be spamming out statues and druid nukes/safety walls… Which is great AoE damage and 10 second party wide Safety walls.
You basically get a free 10 seconds of party wide safety wall every time your chronomancer hits Pass.
Cryo, cryo, cryo. Ice tree (Cryo3) is probably the best CC skill in the game. Cryo also has an attribute which adds a portion of your shield’s def value to mdef and ice resist. Cryo’s DPS isn’t the greatest, but it pairs up nicely with Psychokino, creating one of the most well known skill combos in the game.
If you find you need more tankiness, you can pick up thaumaturge. Swell right arm (Thauma2) will increase defense if you’re using a shield, and Transpose will up your health pool if you’re int spec. (Thauma is also good for damage with swell left arm and swell brain)
Keep in mind however, that only one class in the game (to my knowledge) has a real taunt, and that is Peltasta in Swordsman.
First PvP video i saw that lasted so long, lol. (Priest OP)
Quite nice variety of classes.
thanks for all the suggesions, Btw, is there any summoner class here?
Is it possible to use higher rank classes from a different tree than ur base? i.e, ur base is cleric, but can u use sorcerer or such classes from other trees?
No. You can’t leave your tree.
Also, what is this hidden class thingy? can anyone explain about these? and thank for all the comments.
