With developers Ironmace’s popular free-to-play dungeon crawler back on Steam, it is the perfect time to do a Dark and Darker class tier list. Similar to our other tier list guides on games like Squad Buster or MultiVersus, this guide will help you understand the best classes. Whether you prefer solo or group play, understanding each class’s strengths and weaknesses is key to mastering the game.
Without further ado, here’s our definitive tier list for Dark and Darker classes.
Dark and Darker Class Tier List
Barbarian
- Overall: A Tier
- Solo: B Tier
- Group: S Tier
- Difficulty: Easy to Play
The Barbarian is all about raw power. In solo play, the Barbarian is good but not the best. With skills like Savage Roar and Morale Boost, they can handle most PvE fights easily. However, in a group, the Barbarian shines. Paired with a Cleric and Wizard, they become an unstoppable force. The Barbarian’s high damage output makes them a must-have for any team.
Wizard
- Overall: A Tier
- Solo: A Tier
- Group: A Tier
- Difficulty: Skill Dependent
The Wizard relies heavily on gear. With the right equipment, a skilled Wizard is elite in both solo and group play. In solo play, spells like Fireball and Magic Missile offer strong ranged damage. Utility spells like Haste and Invisibility make the Wizard very versatile. In group play, the Wizard’s spells can support allies and control the battlefield, making them valuable team members.
Fighter
- Overall: A Tier
- Solo: A Tier
- Group: S Tier
- Difficulty: Easy to Play
The Fighter is versatile and easy to play. They have access to the best gear and weapons. In solo play, their self-healing abilities and strong armor make them tough to beat. In group play, the Fighter excels with heavy armor and damage reduction, making them a frontline tank that can withstand a lot of punishment.
Cleric
- Overall: A Tier
- Solo: S Tier
- Group: S Tier
- Difficulty: Intermediate
The Cleric is great for new players. In solo play, they can clear PvE rooms with Holy Purification and Sanctuary. In group play, the Cleric is essential. They provide healing and powerful buffs, making them the backbone of any good team. A group without a Cleric is at a significant disadvantage.
Ranger
- Overall: B Tier
- Solo: A Tier
- Group: B Tier
- Difficulty: Easy to Play
The Ranger excels in solo play with great ranged damage and the ability to use a spear. They have good survival skills with Field Ration. In group play, however, the Ranger is less effective compared to Wizards and Bards, who offer more utility and group buffs.
Rogue
- Overall: C Tier
- Solo: B Tier
- Group: C Tier
- Difficulty: Intermediate
The Rogue is currently the weakest class. They struggle in group play and are outmatched by Fighters. The Rogue relies on stealth and gear, which makes it hard to play effectively. They are better suited for skilled players who can take advantage of their abilities.
Bard
- Overall: A Tier
- Solo: C Tier
- Group: S Tier
- Difficulty: Intermediate
The Bard is a support powerhouse in groups but struggles solo. They provide buffs and some damage with Drums. In group play, the Bard is almost as essential as the Cleric. They offer incredible utility and can greatly enhance the performance of their team.
Warlock
- Overall: B Tier
- Solo: A Tier
- Group: B Tier
- Difficulty: Easy to Play, Hard to Master
The Warlock is the newest class. They shine in solo play with abilities like Summon Hydra and Hellfire. In PvE, they excel, but in PvP, they can be tricky to use. In group play, the Warlock’s utility is limited, but they offer strong damage support.
Hopefully, our Dark and Darker class tier list will help you choose the best class that fits your playstyle.
