Class Tier Rating
Blast Fencer Class Blast Fencer C TierDecent

The Blast Fencer-class directs from the Enforcer-class and focuses more on balanced defensive-offensive capabilities and application effects against targets but like the other five classes, they also only have three skill slots, limiting their build potential.
