Yeah, most tanking skills are in the swordsman tree. However, monk has some tanking potential. Peltasta of the swordsman tree is a shield user with a provoke, so they seem to be the first major tank class, though.
Yer, probably most tanking in Swordie but also some good potential in some cleric tree, at a guess I’d say Paladin>Monk> tankbuilt clerics of different classes
Hmmm, provoke is a crucial skill for a tank, for aggro control. I gotta watch more videos of swordsman and cleric then. Thanks guys.
Go swordie ^,^ cant go wrong with fat swordie.
Almost the same as me, Wiz>Cryo>Linker x2 > Chronomancer x1

*Classes where added best on peoples posts. Unsure posts were not added. Post with mixing class lines and/or same rank class were not counted. Posts with multiple characters, only the first choice was counted.
**Rank I classes were added by posts containing higher rank classes. (Ex. Post saying Monk, I assumed Cleric for start).

No Fencer? Also, I’m surprised no one mentioned Mimic, since it might be ToS’s “blue mage”.

Whoops, I forgot to put the Fencer’s in the post. Nice catch! Yeah, not a single mimic. I added it though.
Oh yes I kind of forgot. As soon as I find out how to get Mimic (pretty sure it’s hidden) I’m starting an alt RIGHT AWAY.
No one wants to be an archer 
OOOOoo thank you 
Archer will probably be the best lvling class and also the best PVP class O.o
Im pretty sure dispite ppls ideas now, once the game is released, we will be flood with archer. >_<
Just to solve any confusion / future confusion, the Titles of each segment in that list should be “Rank” not “Circle.”
Circle is the classification for a set of 15 job levels within a class (up to 3 circles / 45 levels / Upgrading a class two times).

Replaced all ‘circle’ with ‘rank’. Thank you!
Usually, I go for whatever class(es) deal the highest damage/are most efficient PvP-wise, but I don’t really know much when it comes to this game (yet), so if I don’t find anything out by the time the game’s beta opens, I’ll probably just go with the usual starting choice: Swordsman.
Archer > Ranger > Ranger > Ranger > Fletcher > Fletcher! (Maybe Rank 7 Fletcher again)
Highlander, cause i love epic two-handed swords, and Saber-class of Fate/Stay Night Inspired me to be this class…

Considering the steam ver. might be based on the US and i’d probably have around 350+ ping or so , I’ll need a class that can “Fire and Forget”
So I guess it’ll either be a wiz class going forward to its other branches , or simply sapper
I still wish there’s a more updated skill simulator for archers to sappers and such also higher rank wiz classes. So I can actually plan this out.
cleric(I want to be an oracle) and wizard(cuz sorcerer! OAO)

I’m going for Cleric as I love playing support characters.
Not sure what I will do with the ranks though…
