Pirate101: Ranking the Classes from WORST to BEST in 2024!

[@Wizheadpluto]

What do you think the best Pirate101 class is? Let me know!

[@primella8135]

its so sad witchdoctor is such a cool class and very interesting i just wish it was better same with swashbuckler

[@Wizheadpluto]

I know! I love playing witchdoctor its just really hard to solo :(

[@av-vl5nf]

just got back into this game and made a swash I appreciate the guide tysm

[@XL_Slade]

Intro was AWESOME!!! Brought me back man

[@Wizheadpluto]

Thank you Slade!

[@clowncage]

Whirlyburly and pet derby in wiz are pretty strong contenders for deadest activity too imo.

[@Wizheadpluto]

True, at least there are some people who still do pirate pvp. Tbh i forgot Whirlyburly even existed lmao 💀

[@aekirby1045]

I literally wanted to jump off a cliff trying to quest on witch doctor solo.

[@OwafflesO]

as a witchdoctor player when questing use kanpo and el toro they make life so ez

[@joshmallin7706]

I really do like being a privateer, it gives enough damage to keep up with your crewmates but having all those buffs and heals available really makes the difference on the harder fights.

[@Wizheadpluto]

I like privy a lot bc of the buffs, especially on team fights, my problem with it is when you have to solo.

[@furryfloofer8742]

Privateers are at least the best class at PVP, this is sadly a PVE oriented tier list.

[@NovaVortex193]

Best: Buccaneer Worst: Witchdoctor Most fun: Swashbuckler Least fun: Privateer

[@DuncanWilliamsOFFICIAL]

Dude.. did you smoke crack before making this comment? Witch-Musket-Swashbuckler are the meta picks in PvE and PvP.

[@Fractii]

Swash was my first and ive played every single class its so fun wish the game devs introduced more varieties and epic talents tho but i understand how too many talents can become too much to handle

[@Stormy_Cody]

There is no worst class only bad players.

[@Wizheadpluto]

True, i think witch is still at the bottom tho lol

[@DuncanWilliamsOFFICIAL]

True, but it still doesn't change the fact therr are classes that outperform or provide better utility in PvE. A musket-Witch-Swash combo is deadly and is the meta class choice.

[@anothershellcialistturtle8568]

I’ve maxed every class and musk was my fav has been since I was 9 I’m now 20 which is crazy but I Also like buck they just straight lace every problem in front of them now for privy I feel like the whole class just works against it’s self either you go for spells and nullify your melee combat abilities or you go for melee combat and nullify your spells if you go hybrid you’ll just do both poorly compared to other classes witch doctors are cool but you gotta kill everyone before they lay a finger on you and swashbucklers lack versatility they do one thing and that’s it they have like a couple buffs and meh poisons they could use a buff

[@stevesamuals2651]

Wow, i was surprised to hear wizard101 still exieted at this point, but pirates101 still exists?! That's even more shocking

[@coolJeff8797]

Witch doctor is the second most op class with the old scratch meta.

[@chromosomecollector8310]

There isn’t a bad class in the game Witch is as easy anything, honestly would say it’s probably the second easiest class right next to Musket. AoE attacks with scratch buffs are just as viable as anything any other class has to offer.

[@AverageUser69]

My hot take: I'd actually rank Privateer above Swashbuckler. The problem with the Swashbuckler class is that most melee units have FS3 which makes your hide useless. The class doesn't have a lot of debuff like Buccaneer with their charges. Their selling point is just the dodge and high damage they provide. Meanwhile, Privateer is super versatile with their playstyle. At max, you can basically use shooty weapons with OW3 while also utilizing the scratch mojo buffs that allows you to consistently deal big damage (using mojo blast or bombs) from certain gears that doesn't need you to be an onfielder. Also, the buffs and heals are quite handy when you need it that stands out from most classes. Overall, I find Privateer to be the most comfortable class to play.

[@madyellingman7292]

I’ve been wanting to make a privy as my third class. It took my a week to max out a swash - record time for me and the FS3 from mobs wasn’t too much of an issue if you play properly.

[@katalinemadera5115]

I make my witch kinda of a support where it buffs up with scratch and heal if need be if not just damage everything kinda like white mage play style on final fantasy

[@OathOFtheShadows2015]

Ahoy, Pluto or Young Wizard!!! I started playing Pirate101 recently because Wizard101 just gets boring and you have to search for ridiculous equipment that makes your class lose its identity. IF I have to choose between the two games, I prefer Pirate because it is more FUN and the graphics of the game are great, the story, the humor of the characters and the ships. this game has very good potential, but let's hope they increase the team behind it, because they can't even make a new Skyway or a whole world "IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE". I ranked the classes like this: 1. Musketeer ~ just because of Bonnie Anne she is CUTE OMG!!!! (Just kidding, it's so much more than that, the epics of this class are amazing!!!! ) 2. Swashbuckler ~ Assassin's Creed VIBES + hiding in the shadows is great mechanic. 3. Witchdoctor ~ a big SURPRISE, and yeah it is a big STRUGGLE to play with not to mention trying to go solo, but the class itself is very interesting just like a Necromancer from Wizard101. 4. Privateer ~ STRUGGLE to play with. 5. Buccaneer ~ I didn't like this class because it is too tanky, it has good damage and companions, but it lacks on certain things. Thank you so much for this guide, it is very helpful! :)

[@kane1o074]

Ok, privateer in worst if you’re trying to solo, bucc and swash are really close, musk is slightly better, SHOOTY STAFFY WITCH IS OVERPOWERED

[@wolfbattleblade1153]

People been saying Musketeer is the worst class. I'm kinda new to the Pirate101 and find Swashbuckler to be the best. I don't see why they say Musketeer is the worst, I had the most fun with Musketeer

[@wolfbattleblade1153]

Correction, after a lot more gameplay. I had Witch Doctor 5th, and Privateer 4th. The rest are really overpowered compared to the other two, I had Buccaneer 3rd, Swashbuckler 2nd, and Musketeer 1st. I find Musketeer outshining Swashbuckler just by a little bit because the amount of abilities they have compared to everyone. i didn't even use Old Scratch as Musketeer and I still complete battles with no issues (Except that one in Mooshu where you have to hit a gong before attacking anyone, I'm sure you all know that battle)

[@janet5162]

Witch doctor would be better if they were allowed to chain attacks.

[@Wizheadpluto]

Yes i think theyd be much better

[@chromosomecollector8310]

They used to be able to chain it was changed because of how broken it was.

[@DuncanWilliamsOFFICIAL]

The best out of all classes is going to be a three way tie of Witch-Musket-Swash. Start with one of these classes, and choose Lost+Krokotopia (nat. Spooky for spell dmg), you should be set, obviously choose the class after you picked Lost+Krok in your character origination story. There may be an exception if you want nat. dodgy for swashbuckler for story, but Krok for spell damage is universal.

[@tyler-dum-asf]

Not watching, im assuming we all already know, 1. Buccaneer 2. 3. 4. 5. Everybody else
