What Elder Scrolls Online Class is Right for You?

Like most MMOs, Elder Scrolls online classes are an integral part of the game. At the same time, in keeping with the Elder Scrolls tradition, classes in Elder Scrolls online are handled slightly differently from most MMOs. Each of the Elder Scrolls online classes have their own skill lines that are available only to that class, and which class you choose can have a large impact on character development. However, there are also skill lines open to any class, including the skill lines for all armor and weapons. This means that a player who chooses to put most of the points into class skills will have a character that is based on and around their class, but another player might choose to split their points more evenly, in which case the character will be a blend of the character’s class, and the other skills the player chooses to invest in. A player might even make the choice to put most of their points into other skills and only invest a little in their class. This case the class would add a bit of flavor to the character, but would not be a defining trait the way it is in most MMOs.

Elder Scrolls Online Classes

There are four classes in ESO. There had been some mention of a fifth class, Wanderers, but this fifth class did not make it into the release version of the game.

 

Templar – the Templar class is in many ways similar to the more well known “paladin” class type. Templars are associated with light and heat and have skill lines that can be combined to build a damage-heavy character, a healer, or debuff heavy character.

Dragon Knight – the Dragon Knight is a fighting class. However the skill lines allow a great deal of customization in what kind of fighting. Dragon Knights can easily be geared towards standard damage-dealing fighters, ranged attacks, or tanking.

Sorcerer – the Sorcerer is ESO’s mage class. Sorcerers’ magic is storm-based, and they can create and control storms, summon storm-based minions, or just use storm-type powers to deal massive damage. Sorcerers are built with a primary weapon of a staff, but they can use and specialize in any weapon the player wishes. Sorcerers can be geared towards dealing damage directly, controlling the forces of nature or using summoned minions to take down enemies.

Nightblade – the Nightblade is an assassin. They use stealth and trickery to attack from the shadows, take down weakened enemies or use special abilities to steal their enemy’s health and powers for themselves. Depending on the players choice in skill lines they can hold their own in face-to-face combat, be ambush specialists, or absorb a great deal of damage and heal themselves by taking their enemies health for themselves.

Picking an Elder Scrolls online class is an important step in character gen and can shape the future of your character. Taking the time to learn about the different classes, their strengths and weaknesses, and the best ways to build their skill sets to get the focus you want can make a huge difference in your game play.
