PvP Tier List Explanations

S Tier Class

Class Explanation
Sniper IconSniper • Stealth is extremely great against other players.
• Camo Cloak can be used to approach isolated enemies unsuspectingly and can also be used to escape.
• Weak against Tactical though as they can reveal their location.
Tactical IconTactical • Reveals enemy in an area with Auspex Scan - even if they continue behind walls.
• Can reveal enemy Snipers and cancel their Camo Cloak altogether
• Access to a lot of great Primary Weapons so Veterancy Level investment has a good return

A Tier Class

Class Explanation
Heavy IconHeavy • Iron Halo is actually a great defensive option when in battle
• Unless an enemy has great initiate, everyone can basically hide behind the Iron Halo while advancing.
• Gets Multi-Melta as early as Level 15!
Vanguard IconVanguard • Grapnel Launcher is a great way to initiate fights or pick on individual enemies that stray off their teams.
• Hooked enemies are stunned while Vanguard is zipping to them, making them free to kill with teammates.
• Grappling Hook mechanic only targets one enemy though, so don't grapple on groups of enemies.
Bulwark IconBulwark • Restores armor for all allies
• Ideal for survivability as the armor gained can be clutch sometimes
• Strong on defense-type missions
• Do not have access to primary weapons, but can get the Power Sword at Level 9!
• Fighting groups may be a challenge, especially due to lacking a primary weapon.

B Tier Class

Class Explanation
Assault IconAssault • Jump Pack is very hard to use in PVP.
• There are indoor and outdoor areas which makes using the Jump Pack finnicky.
• Do not have access to the Hammer from the get-go, and needs to reach Level 18 to get the Power Fist.
• No primary weapon so they don't have access to the Melta Rifle.
