Great video, I just started playing yesterday for the first time. I don't know how I missed this MMO for this long. Subbed

Great video Levi!! ♥ Gonna share this with my friends who are new to the game.

[@Mr-Linderman]

Love the vid, short sweet and informative. Made a gunslinger and warden for my two free slots and loving the warden. Gonna try summoner when I get another slot.

[@galukisayaps182]

those are amazing videos bro, always trying to help the new players, even the old ones too, u really must love the game, hell i also love it but my pc is having a hard time with it, well just wanted to say thanks for those videos and the intentions to help, this content motivates players giving them a way to play and to advance.

Your use of language, both in what you say and how you say it, is fucking spot on for someone thats played an MMO once in their life and is looking at another one. A lot of videos dumb shit down to all fuck and then others drop in every damn short hand thats hyperspecific leaving you lost. You hit that perfect sweet spot. Thanks for making this.

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Glad you enjoyed it! One thing - this video is a few months old now - DPS class/role would be replaced with the new archer that came out. It does everything the gunslinger does but better.

[@deamonohfivefour]

... and here I was, really getting into that Support Chibi, thinking: "I'm new, and easy is good while I learn the other stuff." And then he said "Your cat explodes..." Gulp. that was that. Gunslinger it is lmao Thanks for the video, fr it helped the decision process a bunch. Liked

[@kevthetechskater8391]

Thank you. It helped a lot

[@Oblivionterran]

Great video Levi! I'm happy to see you producing a lot of BnS content recently after a break! I would say FM is on par with GS in terms of dps and easiness for new players. Another thing about GS is that they are not needed anywhere with bad gear, and the sole reason is that there are just too many of them, so they are mostly judged by gear when it comes to parties, and gear is something new players would struggle with for some time. It also would already worsen not so good stereotype of the GS as the class only noobs play. Gunners already trap more than any other class from my experience because literally everyone recommends them to new players. My 5 cents would be that the best classes for new players are those that are welcomed in parties - warlock, warden, and kfm/sin, despite their difficulty, are better to get yourself going in this game. Except for lightning sin maybe, every class is not really difficult to get used to and play on anymore. It's not 2016 without any badges etc., so new players should really play whatever class they like without being afraid that it's "hard to learn or understand," but buff classes are still the best in terms of overall acceptance in parties, so I would recommend them over easy ranged classes like sum, gs, fm.

[@JeSSiK1]

Hi Evil, great channel and well-made videos, thanks for that. Can you share also your warden talents?

[@Snow-Ista]

I wanted to try the gunner but for one knockdown you have to press three different keys RMB 1 F then it gives you a Knockdown where as wardens you press 3 and you knockdown there you go the gunner's rotation isn't as simple i think the archers rotation is simpler and it has a lot of invincibility frames ranged dps the archer you can almost just hold down RMB the hole time and do gud dps but the ting with the archer is its a builder spender class you build focus and you use it on super hard hitting spender abilities maybe give the archer a shot

[@jurosiljehai6800]

that is a pretty good observation

[@hurt12398]

thanks for the help.

[@Hr1s7i]

Oh yeah, warden can keep it's resilience up at all times. Try that logic against super pinchy, that'll totally happen :topkek: Joke aside, you're spot on.

[@Roger101Watson]

I'm having a blast playing the sumoner cute and versatile and so easy compared to my zen archer

[@arabhawk6568]

btw Blade Ward works with your Resilience, if you have Resilience the Warden will never get CCed except for red boss attacks ofc.

[@kumoko3728]

works even through 90% of red boss attacks

Started trying to play again today and went back to trying out archage. I miss the days when bns was crazy populated. Went to foshi to hang out and the place was a ghost town. I wonder where the hell everyone hangs out now

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Mushins hall, dasari gardens, and house of pleasures

[@tvbuu]

@@EvilDoUsHarm I'll try again today, didn't have much time. One thing for sure is I love the new combat and the changes to the classes.

[@MiniDien]

Class for story immersion: Kung fu master Soul master Force master (Cause in cutscene we cant see our weapon and the MC alway fight hand to hand or with force power)

[@FallSilence]

What about Blade dancer , assassin and soul fighter? the thing about picking up either of them, I have 60 FPS and 170 ingame Ping? should those classes be viable with my high ping?

[@azzynoth1970]

Hey Evil, if you have a little time, can you make a video from the frost warlock class? i haven't played BnS for a long time, and a lot of update and content came into the game, so i don't know how useful is the warlock now (since the dps highly depends on items, crit proc, and we have a warden so who needs warlocks when you can get a tank with a big sword+ the same buff just like the warlock has)

[@idiotkamisama]

Warlock class is extremely useful now! A nice dps increase. And when we get the pink badge fuse, even more dps! But take note: So frost (now distortion) became pvp, and shadow (now scourge) became pve. Shadow/scourge does more dps than frost/distortion, but frost/distortion ended up gaining niiice mobility. But when it comes down to it, what matters the most is whether or not warlock is a class you like to play.

[@azzynoth1970]

@@idiotkamisama thanks for the info, aaand now i'm a bit sad, because i have the invincible soul badge, and other frost warlock items. So it would be a pain in the a.ss to change myself to shadow warlock(because i never liked pvp and because people always said that a high heared frost warlock deals more dps than a shadow with the same gear):/

[@idiotkamisama]

@@azzynoth1970 Legendary soul badges and mystic badges can be exchanged for free from the vendor in Zaiwei? I forgot their name. As for elemental accessories, if they're stage 10 and above, you can exchange them to the other spec too~ Frost warlock did before the update, now it's the other way around. However, frost isn't bad. Play the spec that's more fun for you~ Also you get sweeet mobility on frost now! :D

I’ve been wanting to pvp in this game. I’m really new at it and while I know I need to get gear and what not I can’t exactly figure out which classes are most effective in each type of pvp

I'm not a very good PvP player, but I have the best luck in 1v1/3v3 with destroyer and warden. Once again I'm bad and have no idea if that is meta or not but it works for me.

[@stromik5596]

Hi, nice video, but i would like to ask which are the best spell rotations for highest dps for gunslinger

[@jassonchen]

simple mode. only class where simple mode is the actual rotation. U hold rmb while pressing c v 3 and 4 whenever you need them. 2 to cc when you have to and x and z whenever it makes sense.

[@jesusalbertomartinezmontal6200]

@@jassonchen you forget that with awakening the wind kfm actually do more damage with simple mode, being your X and V the only ones you have to hit out of the rotation to keep the buffs

I was a warlock since 2016,and i never wanted to change,i tought il be a warlock forever,or at least until i quit for good,now whit this lvl 60 patch i feal so sad to leave my warlock and reroll,they destroyed the class,they took evrything away,z(stun) 3(daze) 2(airborn) how can i be a warlock now....

[@MrsLobie]

warlock actualy is the strongest pve class atm it deals the most dmg (max gear parses for 2.8m) but yeah rip pvp warlock

[@Ashaweshk]

@@MrsLobie How many people have max gear? lol like lemme magically equip my GC9 weapon.

[@MrsLobie]

@@Ashaweshk not many but im just stating that warlock is potentialy the strongest dps class

[@idiotkamisama]

Whaaaaaat? Warlock wasn't destroyed?? It was greatly improved (in PVE). Yes the ability to change our x to stun or daze sucks, but we do awesome dps now! If you really enjoy the class, don't reroll. But if you no longer enjoy it, then yes, rerolling is an option. :/

[@idiotkamisama]

though if you're referring to the pvp side then.. >>;; ye.. It's...not good in pvp now.

[@pcteddy3492]

is this info still available i wanna start with BnS and dont know hwich class would be great im used to mmo so can we a hard class but i wanna know a good starting class :D

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Yes this info is still accurate, only archer replaces gunslinger

[@Roukyou]

i think soul fighter is easy as well and has a solid revive and healing skills and is simple to learn oh and they have a skill that makes them imune to CC as well for a short period :)

[@drew648]

SF ain't easy bro

[@drew648]

Trust me

[@drew648]

The rotation is hard enough with or without gear

[@Roukyou]

@@drew648 ice build(or whatever its called now) sf is ez i picked up the char after not playing for 2 years its a mindless rotation and to me allows you the ability to be complex down the road but they are a jack of all trades healing, cc ignore, and ez rotation now earth i cant really speak on cause i didnt even try that build out

[@OGamingg]

well my first class is a ranger :)

[@cabbages993]

Hey, so I recently got back with the lvl 60 patch. I mained bm but im trying kfm bcs the fire build looks cool af, It was lvl 55 from before so some of the revamped quests are already done. Im in need of a soul badge and mystic badge, also im at bale 10, I also need bracelet and bt acc. How would you say I prioritize these?

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Finish the new content that came with the patch. That’ll get you your base new gear. After that take your baleful to raven stage 3. It’s very easy after patch. Use that while you upgrade the dawnforged weapon you get as a reward. Soul and mystic badge, your starters can be gotten from midnight sky petal plains raid. Look in faction chat for people hosting that. The more advanced will require tower of infinity, temple of eluvium raid, or like 700 gold. BT accessories can be solo farmed at moon refuge. No need to run that raid anymore.

[@hlanbarjar]

What's your pc specs dude? You seem to have 100fps most of the time.

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

[@BiggyNotSmallz]

Im gonna buy a gaming laptop soon, and i wanna play assassin is it a good idea?

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

What’s your in game ping? If it’s less than 200 go for it. If not you won’t enjoy the class. It’s a lot of fun, but you need to have fast inputs for maximum effectiveness.

[@BiggyNotSmallz]

EvilDoUsHarm idk what my ping is just to be safe u recommend what other class?

[@Quantum-Chaos]

Is any of this info still valid? I heard GS got nerfed? I'm about to return to the game and trying to pick a class.

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Gunslinger got biggest buff last patch, and is getting a huge one on the next as well

[@user-jk8yg5ch9h]

Assassin class has balanced stats, which is good for both evasion, blocking and dps I recommend assassin or blade dancer if you’re a new player and are used to knives and dps

[@1980hashish]

support is not only buffin allies as warden does and most of a time tanking supp is for res ,shield and heal in most mmorpg that's why summoner is a best support since it covers all of that and btw supporting with warden is always there since tank is needed in all end content anyway...

[@happykitty1238]

I chose Warlock as my first character. It was the biggest mistake of my life.

[@PabloParres]

Why?

[@happykitty1238]

Pablo Martínez Parres I got used to everything eventually but it was hard to survive as a Warlock (at least at first, but maybe that's because I especially suck at the game). The class generally has low defense because it's supposed to be a support class, which is nice and after the story, but it makes it harder to go through the story (since a support isn't really meant to solo). I like the class since I usually (since I've beaten the story) play with my brother anyway, but I wish I'd chosen it as my second character. Or maybe I just suck at the game. Actually no, I probably just suck at the game :P

[@samontebanks410]

Warden is better for noobs

[@MrJade12]

You forgot to mention that Warden is also a better DPS class then the Gunslinger.

[@daisyzegikniet8589]

Gunslinger is way higher dps

The point of the video was not “gunslinger is the highest dps” please watch it again and listen to what I say.

[@MrJade12]

Yeah point was he is an easy to play high dps class. Except so is Warden but he has higher dps, better buff, can braindead tank and you are pretty much never asked to od mechanics if you play Warden unlike with a high mobility class like Gunslinger.@@EvilDoUsHarm

sorry but bad advice in terms of the dps^^ both the warden and the sum can do a lot and be fun while you still get a feeling of how kinda complex the fighting system CAN be. but for the love of god don't tell em to start the game with the gunslinger... it usally goes like this: newby in fc: please help me im new, wich class is best for dps (coz i don't give a fuck about teams or the game and just want to show of) two weeks later you have another toxic facejoke in the fc to bash random ppl coz he thinks the game is as easy for everyone and they all just need to get good... let's be hones, we've seen thousands of em over the years and most of em are gone in less than a couple of months. please, no more xD
